The fuck are you talking? DogaKobo's manga adaptations look great.

you must be joking. compared to the likes of cloverworks/A-1? definitely not

A1 has many of shows that look like trash, for example Denpa Kyoushi or Ace Attorney. Dogakobo almost all recent shows look great: Senpai is Annoying, Selection Project, Sleepy Princess, Teibou Nishi, Dumbells, Wataten. How can you say they are low budget?

Not really a fan of Ais and Eriri's voice actress.

Yea.... I mean I still need to see the 1st PV, but it doesn't really look it is going to be a high-budget production series.

You can't say romance these days without saying comedy, but who am I to complain? I'll give this a try.

Are we surprised? Koashna is probably one the production committee, nothing new.

Nice Bakugo (Inuzuka) being voiced by Bakugo's VA himself?! I've been hoping that will be the case and I'm so glad that they did it!

And can't wait to see how they'll animate Hachimitsu! Her expressions in the manga are really unique.
