Whoa this would probably go under my radar cause it's not isekai and I'd forget about it but this one would totally be worth it to watch.

I'm way more excited for this series than I really should be

All is not lost. So glad they decided to make a movie as the TV version looked horrible PV wise. Not a big fan of the darker colors in this PV compared to the other but overall it had the same feel and fantastic animation. ALL IS NOT LOST! WHEW!

Pretty weird project. From a 15 minutes anime to a movie before it even starts airing.
This staff does basically mean I have to watch this though.

Waiting for the anime series ... waiting for the movie now as well.

TV series is scheduled to air from April 8th onward and not August 8th. Please correct that mistake.
