I hope this will stay true to the manga.

Can anyone tell me the history of this studio? Like I know Manglobe when bankrupt and this studio finished their movie for them, but is this studio an extension of Manglobe or something entirely different?

Anyway, this show looks cool. Could be a good studio. Or not. We'll see. It's kind of brave of them to do a psychological as their first standalone project because we all know psychological doesn't sell.

something entirely different

also the manga sold like crazy... don't expect much about dvd sales, but at least tv ratings is bounded to be high... but psychological series does sells...

Ahh I see then. Well, thanks for correcting or well, ya know xP But I wasn't aware that much about Geno studio because... well I wasn't paying that much attention to it.

As far as I'm concerned its pretty much like maybe how Trigger was for Gainax or MAPPA with Madhouse, except Gainax is not really THAT dead yet, neither is Madhouse (not even by a long ass shot for Madhouse). There are staff members from Manglobe working in Geno. I MIGHT be wrong.

Nice visual, pretty excited for this to air.

While he debuted only in 2013, he actually has a lot of dub roles already.

While he has done voice acting before, according to ANN, most of the characters he's voiced are basically background characters who don't even have names (Pilot, Servant, Male Student, Club Member, and such), so I'm kinda worried.

In anime - yes, he has only background character. But he mostly works in the dub. For example, he dubs over Ezra Miller's Flash in BvS and SS and Jeremy Jordan's character in Supergirl.

Both seiyuus didn't have many other roles (especially Sugimoto's), I don't know how to feel about this... the manga is so good, please please please let the anime be too, so it can be a success and to give Noda Satoru more of the attention he deserves.

The staff actually looks pretty good.. Art direction was the only good part of Kuma Miko so I'm happy to see them on board. And the guy who did the soundtrack for Re:Zero is on here too? Sweet, despite its flaws that show had a fantastic OST.
Also funny to see how a random mangaka is part of the staff too. Apparently Jinba has a lot of animals in it so it makes sense, they really need those to look great in the anime.
As for the cast, no opinion on them really. It was obvious they weren't gonna get an actual Ainu girl to play Asirpa. Would've been cool though.
PLEASE BE GOOD. PLEASE. BREAK THE YOUNG JUMP CURSE.

Looking forward to this.

Good additions, especially the Music Composition (which he did OST compositions for Re:Zero and Shoujo Shuumatsu Ryouko, as well as Luluco). I think this looks decent enough I guess.

Visuals look so DOPE...
