Saw the gonzo logo. That must mean it will suck after the first episode, right? Laughing

Mixed feelings on this so far. Guess the first 3 episodes will determine for me if I should continue this or not.

Judging by the character designs alone, I seem to be in the target demographic. Queen's Blade in a Wild West like setting? In.

Yeah, I like the designs and the look of the setting.

The action looked quite nice too.

The two directors seem pretty good too looking at their previous credits.

For a show that is directed by Hiroshi Hamasaki,it seems like it is completely devoid of his instantly recognizable style.

Gonzo'd.
The designs are devoid of everything that makes Kim Hyeong-Tae's art style unique.

So an anime based on a video game featuring buxom, scantily-clad women animated by Gonzo?

FUNimation probably has the license already. Razz Laughing

I'm clearly not in the target demographic for this show because absolutely nothing in that trailer grabbed my attention. I suppose it's a good thing that I wasn't expecting anything from this show because I don't feel disappointed Anime smile

Yes, so glad this show is going to be centered on this game's ridiculous female designs and apparently feature no male leading roles because they don't matter to the demographic anyway. What the hell is wrong with genre, no one likes manly dudes anymore? If they'd showcased more Gon males, I'd have been hype.

It's close enough and still looks great if you ask me. Main differences are faces. Having an animated version of his exact style means even more exaggerated poses and proportions, which means even more people complaining Laughing

I saw the crappy CG background and I knew it was Gonzo.
