What a lovely visual. Glad to see this debut this year. Hopefully, it won't be late in the year.

definitely interesting. though will this be a direct sequel to the rebellion series is the question? or will this just simply be just a tv remake of those QB OVAs? the fact that airi will be in the series and not the other characters from the series like cattleya ,those worksmith dwatf and cattleya's son whose was pretty much completely smitten by airi , its more or less to be certain that it will be the latter.

Hoping they don't forget what made the original as enjoyable as it was. It wasn't the excessive fanservice. It was the characters.

Here's hoping they don't forget Best Girl too; just because she didn't have a game book.

Why are you repeating what's clearly stated in the article by the lovely article poster? And how did you get to that from a simple "Oh"? I'm offended at what you're implying (or outright stating by your words and actions) here. Sad

Please let it be like the first two seasons and not like Rebellion. Both the artwork and the writing took a nosedive in Rebellion.

The bad character design took all of season three down with it. A series filled with humans, elves, dwarfs, angels and demons in a medieval fantasy setting didn't need the pirate, robot and erotic dancer.

So far, this looks like a good start even if those designs look a little young and moe. What will Nanael look like, a 12 year old?

Crunchyroll wrote in his news-title "Amazons Attack in 2018 in "Queen's Blade Unlimited" Anime OAV Series". But no further information about the Involvement of Amazon itself. Or what does it means with "Amazon Attack"?

As strange of thing it is to say, I'm a big fan of this series, for more than just the sexualization at that mind you, so I'm glad it's not dead and returning in some way.

But at the same time, I'm really worried about a couple things. I'm not exactly liking some of the redesigns, both in the general designs and how the overall aesthetic is a lot more cutesy. Not to mention the last entry, "Grimoire", was a complete mess so there is some skepticism getting carried over.

Oh well, worst comes to worst, the original stuff will always be there.

Nanael mostly looks the same, though there are some slight differences. Two hairpins instead of one, the hairpins themselves are a different design, her sword got fancier, her armor got slicker, etc.

14 of the redesigned characters have been revealed so far over at the main website if anyone wants to check them out.
