Once again, this looks like the single most generic thing in the history of ever. Confused

these light novels adaptations should claim copyright between each other already, they all have the same stereotyped characters and story

Yeah, this doesn't look appealing at all. I'm pretty sure at least five shows like this have aired this year.

I remember when this type of series wasn't generic and it's mostly only Light Novel adaptions with these types of characters and story.

Looking forward to this more and more. Been catching up on the books and I'm hyped for it.

Looking forward to this anime for the 2015 Fall Season. Hope this will have more than 12/13 episodes. The Light Novel has enough material to go the length of 20-26 episodes.

Well, looks like it will have decent animation at least unlike Kuusen.

Have to wait and watch to see what the story is I guess. That little blurb about the 'story' just gives the tiniest details of the setting, and just sounds incredibly generic. I have no idea why they try to describe it like that. I'd rather a sentence or two about why specifically the main characters are involved and in what than some short, vague, and generic sounding description of their world.

If we go the avg. light novel-based series covering at least 2-3 volumes, then you are correct. It's also possible a second 12-13 episode season is also planned.

The art style (and synopsis, for that matter) look quite similar to that of this Winter Season's Seiken Tsukai no World Break. You can interpret that as you will.
