The designs look generic and the plot is mediocre. With a low tier studio and staff, im curious how they pull it off.

This looks like Kami no Tou. At least the MC is exactly the same

It’s a shame that we won’t be getting this in 2020, but it’s starting to look like 2021 will be a fantastic year for anime. Kemono Jihen, Shaman King remake, Bleach’s return, and S2 of TPN.
