Animation looks OK-ish, I guess. Frankly, I'm not too excited for this one, but I'll wait until VAs are announced.

I feel like there's at least three or four shows every year that look exactly like this.

Well, I'm currently reading the novels and I was really surprised as I saw the news for the anime adaptation.. and now the PV..

English in anime that sounds good? Now I have my hopes even higher. *laughs*

Well, let the people hate shows like this.. I know what I can espect from them and there aren't that many titles that are disappointing. (ok, Absolute Duo was more on the bad side of the novels)

Nice trailer and even though the style looks familiar the animation was quite nice.

With all of the staff written in English in the trailer and even the trailer narrator Aniplex USA should go all the way and simuldub this with Bang Zoom.

Art and animation looks good but please don't let this be more harem bullcrap. Give us a more balanced cast please.

Now that I've seen the plot, I will now have to see who the VA's are or who is doing the opening or ending. Razz

This is already the single most generic thing I've ever seen. Confused

The same illustrator works on both IS and this series.

Don't blame the artist for IS's shortcomings, blame the author. Asterisk is much better than IS.

Hm, I guess you have a point. In fact, I found the females in IS to be very attractive, so it will be up to the author then.
