I was expecting this to be a bit more dark and edgy looking in the art style, but it turns out it's uber colorful like Space Dandy but with little of the polish Space Dandy had.

Well it looks great it looks like something out of the 80s or 90s

From what I can gather this looks like it'll be pure crazy. I like pure crazy so while keeping in mind what I know of trigger sofar I'll be looking forward to it!

Well there wasn't really any animation there, it was mostly people standing while the camera panned across them. Though given that this is Trigger (Gainax version 2) I'm betting this will have very uneven animation quality. As for the art style, going back to who they are again, this will probably be another tribute to some old thing, or things that they liked when they were younger. |

My interest was piqued throughout the video, until the girls showed up towards the end with fanservice and modern LN-adaptation sort of art-styling. I don't think this looks like the 80's or 90's at all, since the few character images in the video carry a very modern artistic sensibility to them, so I'm colored a bit disappointed. Hopefully more videos and artwork will surface to give more context and a better fleshed out sense for what they're aiming for, I'm holding my breath.

Looks better then the manga already but Trigger´s writing has not quite hit me jet. Please be good and fill my Afro Samurai hole in my heart.

The character designs look to ANIMU MOE crap compared to the awesome novel designs
It's nothing like the NInja Slayer Animation posters which was closer to the novel's style, that dissapointed me a lot
Still looking forward, since the novels sure as hell are a fun read. Curious how they do it since 40% of the fun is that is always playing with words, the novels. The other 50% for the creative villain use (think the 8 Devils of Kimon x250, and also really creative). and the leftovers are for Ninja Slayer being an enigmatic deus ex machina of death. This is how it's supposed to look: 
The color use is good, cyberpunk style... it needs neon. But the character designs are ruined... And it's nothing like this promo art, in which the character designs match the ones in the books (they seem to deviate with entire new designs in this clip):

Notice the female characters: 
And notice that nothing in your pics except for the original moe girl above shows them unmasked, or regular civilian non-villains or family members that the video shows. |

If you know the full story of the production behind Ninja Slayer, I think that would actually work to the anime's advantage. |

Looks dated, but I am good with that. I kind of dig it. The colors are amazing as well. I'm all over that.
Anyway, I'm going to check it out, but only for the style. The plot doesn't really interest me, and some scenes make me a little eh towards the series, but we'll see. I was eh towards When Supernatural Battles Become Commonplace, but I'm currently really enjoying it so far. |

That's kind of the point though, isn't it? When so much of the production art for both the anime and the novels look to feature maybe 1 possibly moe-looking girl, it's all the more striking when the very first trailer shows what looks to be around 3 or so moe-ish looking girls, despite the vast cast of other characters and drastically grittier style shown up until this point. |
