You know this is going to be quality content when the first thing they show in the PV is a loli naked with her back getting washed.

There's more than that but looking at the PV in general, i'm definitly going to pass.
Looks terrible.

I'm with you DatRandomDude. I was vaguely interested in this from the promo art but holy crap that video. Yeah, it looks way to heavy on the fan service for my tastes. It also didn't look at great in action as I hoped either. I'll see what the reviews says when the winter previews up come, but now I don't really have my hopes up for this one.

Before we become Hand Shakers, we must first become Back Washers. I like.

Also, DAT RIRI AND BIND GOODNESS. Very Happy

I honestly do not get why GoHands would waste their talent on this crap. If pretty colors and cute little kids are all this show has (aside from that hilarously premise), then I'm not wasting my time on this.

Well it looks beautiful at least but that fight scene was confusing as hell and the fan service was enormous for it to be just a PV. Nothing but girls and only 2 seconds of the main boy and showing none of the other male characters.

I'm still going to check this out but this PV practically screamed that it had no confidence in the story or plot itself.

The art design in this seems... off. It's weirdly too glossy, too bright, like they went too far with the CG-enhancements. Also, that CG background action shot towards the end of the trailer looked janky as hell. The premise was intriguing to me, but after seeing this, not to mention all the loli/moe BS, I'm having doubts.

All I see in this trailer is reasons to pick up the show. This looks great. And yes, I'm okay with all the fanservice. Seems it can appeal to me on various levels while looking absolutely beautiful. So I welcome it

The motion sickness this anime will have to offer. My god. It's too glossy and shiny and too many colors. I'll give it a shot, wish me luck.

Not that I want to jump on the bandwagon of iffiness towards the promo video of this upcoming show, but I can't be the only one wondering why there's absolutely no information on the staff outside of the voice actors and theme song performers.

Everyone talking about being a little girl or whatever, and it's not even a loli.
Also, bad CG in the fight already in PV.

GoHands needs some help. I've got nothing against loli's getting their backs washed, but their look and sound has got to change. It was fine for K Project, but I don't need another K Project. Do something else guys. This literally looks and sounds like the exact same show, just with more lolis and probably more fanservice. I like both of those things, but not really feeling it here at all.

The fight scene seemed a little....Off, but then again they didn't show very much of it. Other then that I'm looking forward to the show. I always find judging shows, movies, etc based on trailers is a bad idea if I did I would have missed out on lot of great content.

Someone cares to explain where does this loli thing come from?
She's stated to be 15 years old, 150cm (which is not much underheight in Japan even for an adult) and she is quite busty.
They never intended her to be a loli.

Yeah, thaaaaat was more of color-swapped Anna than we needed to see.

++ yeah, they seem to be over-girling this. My theory is that they want to unload all the booby fans onto this and make K into a real bishounen show, but maybe that's just wishful thinking.

........... yes, we need more K. Always need more K. Eternal K. And we do have K: Seven Stories coming up...
....... at least give me a little of spoiler[German-sensei in his original body].

Also, the character art is... everything wrong with the art in Return of Kings but doubled. But thankfully, the K art is back to being gorgeous like it was in season 1 (in the Nagare birthday poster, the new idol AU poster, and the new After Stories picture). So hopefully Seven Stories will not look like this.

Edit: New K poster, for reference.

What they intended is irrelevant. Scroll down just passed the video to the first image and look at that little white haired girl. That's a loli. I don't really do the whole, "it's not a loli if she's older than____" If someone looks like a loli, they are one. This is a visual medium. You can say a character is whatever age you want, but if they look like they are a child, they are a loli.
