Preliminary (3/12 eps)
If you're looking at this, and thinking it looks a little familiar, as if the idea of an older person becoming a young girl has spun itself here again. But the key difference here is, while that show tanked, this show is worth the watch. As if those knew what they were doing, and knew how to make a proper interesting set up and world. So let me explain more about it.

Story and characters: 7
What I really like about the story, is the more build ups, and fun side of things. While sure, I wish things weren't so rushed, or feels like such in parts. But seeing characters grow and develop is a wonderful thing. Mainly those you actually like for that matter. But a lot of the story is built on who Inglis is. I say that, as it's her tale and story, as lot to over come. Having a strong and fun lead as her, will drive the show forward.The sort of character that is fun, open, adventurous, but also realistic to boot. If there is one reason to enjoy and want to watch this anime, it's because of her, and wanting to see her development and growth.

Reincarnation stories if done well, can be a big hit. A build up of a hero-king on his deathbed, only wishing to be reborn, not selfishly mind you, and he's done such in the future of his kingdom, but now as a girl! Interesting development for sure. Mentioning the build ups, as it's done real good here. As they could've just throw you into them just sorting out potential issues, and that'd be it. But with how it's done, and not jumping right into that, it adds more curiousness about it. So we want more, we want these issues to face justice. Not to mention the twists that it's presenting. Which will only add more to the story.

She isn't the only strong character however. You've got her bestie who she grew up with, and is just as much of a darling as she is. Maybe a little less wild, but Rafinha is definitely a character to love. I'm sure we'll meet many more to either love and hate as well.

Art and sound: 7
The only thing that does worry me in this area, is more that how the monsters will come across. It's why I referenced that previous old dude becomes a girl before. They do have a striking resemblance to how they did it. Which if done right, won't be a total hassle. Other than that, the art has really been stella. With how it's animated, and how it sounds. You can tell there is a lot of care and fun gone into it. You know it's going to be a good product, when both of those elements are pushed into it. To talk more on the style too, it really seems they went with a darker palette for the show, like it's more darker than a normal anime, and I do find that a nice touch.

While this trend may come off as weird at best, but this one is done right, and I'm sure the interest will only keep on going. I'd watch it.
