So far the cast is pretty good I like Isabella VA and having Kayano Ai is great but as for Conny I like her VA but and I think it suits her but...

Didn't expect Uverworld for this, they usually do action anime. Hopefully the song is good.

I'm usually fine with UVERworld but its a dumb choice for this one.
