Shocked Shocked Shocked Wow, this looks amazing! Absolutely love those designs. Definitely a top priority for me for Spring. Can't wait for an animated PV

My first impression was that someone decided to make a collaboration between Grimgar and Shirobako, lol. However, this is one of my favorite studios and authors, so the expectations are only positive.

I'm interested.

Also picking up some Witch Hunter Robin vibes just reading about it.

Looks great and it's P.A. Works so I can be 99.99% sure it's gonna be interesting and shouldn't disappoint. Also nice to see they're dropping the usual high school setting for something more mature.

They already done that very recently with "Sirius The Jaeger",whats your opinions on that?

I know people mentioned Sirius already, but what about Shirobako and Sakura Quest? Both series entirely centered around adults in the work place. Also I haven't seen the Ecentric Family so I'm not sure what that's about but I remember people liking it.

They also did the movie Maquia: when the promised flower blooms, that came out last year. It centers around spoiler[a mother raising her child, in a fantasy setting]. Not sure if that's a spoiler but I rather not risk it. The movie doesn't have anything to do with high school.

I think Shirobaka is one of their top 3 highest rated and has popularity that matches. It's even getting a new movie soon.

This looks like it might end up on Netflix.

Look interesting and boring at the same time. I'm little curious but I will wait how people review this series before I give it chance.

Those fairy designs are really cool-looking. Curious how they'll look animated.

I was about to say, everything about this is just screams "Netflix Original" especially nowadays how most of P.A. Works' more "action-oriented" works ended up there.

This looks really dope!

I just hope that it doesn't become another style-over-substance show like Sirius, because that had everything except an interesting story.

This looks like it could be awesome! The fact that PA Works is the studio kind of worries me though since my track record with them isn't good. The only anime they did that I really enjoyed was The Eccentric Family.

Ah I don't have a Netflix sub, just don't want to cave as I hate the way they do things. So I haven't seen STJ, am I right in assuming others see it as a bit of a dud?

I'm genuinely excited about this one. Between the modern looking take on Witch Hunter Robin in the setting, to the fact that the author of the original Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash novels being involved in the scripts, I'm hyped.

Everything about this one, from what they've revealed so far, scratches my itch for this certain form of content and that's exciting. Hopefully it's not Netflix bound so I can watch it sooner rather than later this year!
