I'd like to see a PV first before I consider watching it.

That's going to be snagged by Netflix for sure, they tend to snag ultra violent safe bet anime like this.

Would you like to retract your statement, sir?

Looks good, hopefully it gets a decent studio although feels like it won't.

I bet this manga will be victim of Polygon Pictures ugly 3DCGI.

Will this have romance and panty shots?

If "Ghost in the shell" is not ecchi, and had fanservice, I do not want to imagine this

Dec 19, 2018 1:17 PM by FireCrauter

Ghost in the Shell and Battle Angel vibes coming from that anime description.

Looks like very obscure manga getting adaptation so my curious is there. Also that cover shot alone enough for me to check this :) Hopefully decent studio picks this.
