the game isn't even out yet, and its already getting an anime.

The game looks fun, but what always deterred me was the protagonist. Thankfully it came out that you could alternatively play as the silver haired girl.

This anime doesn't have that option though playing as a character and watching them are different experiences.

So I'll be on the fence for this one

The protagonist will definitely be the Achilles' Heel of the show, but it has nice visuals and music, and the designs are pretty good too. Should be at the very least interesting to watch.

Man, all these characters look so bland and uninteresting. Weird to release an anime about your game before the game is even out, wouldn't that be spoiling the game if you watch the anime?

The game releases June 25th and the anime airs starting July 1st so just play the game quickly~

Still unsure if the anime is the story of the game, or a prequel, or a sequel though.
