Bringing big guns to the secondary and antagonists, I see...still kinda worried about Yuri Hondo voice. She squeals way more (and worse) than I remember.

Animation-wise, going by the trailers is...fine, I guesss. But I prefered a more polished style.

This is such a weird concept that it interests me. I just don´t have any idea of what to expect.
The cast is really good though, so let´s wait and hope.

Damn, that's one heck of a Cast lineup! Staff and the PV, on the other hand, seems fine so I might give this a shot if I'm up for it once it's out.
