Yamashita and MAO have played Bat and Lin in previous comedy spin offs.

The two most dreaded letters in any animation production.

CG. No, you get ZERO benefit of the doubt. Blue Sky’s awful visuals killed any benefit of the doubt.

The wait between it's announcement and previous teaser had me suspecting this was why, especially knowing that they did it before with Blue Sky Re:Genesis.

With it being CG, I expect it to be split-cour too with chunks of 11 or 12 episodes each.

This looks bad, seriously, and I am very lenient when it comes to CG.

Maybe there will be funny memes, if nothing else.

It seems 80s anime is still definitive version.

I wouldn’t even release it. I’d go “Just kidding!” and start from scratch.

Yeah, this was an adaptation I was really looking forward to ever since it was announced. But the animation in that teaser is NOT instilling any confidence that this'll be as good as I hoped.

DAMNIT IT'S CG! That is so, so deflating. I'm not an anime CG hater per se these days, but the trailer does not hype me up. I will still give it an honest chance, but man is this a bummer...

The disappointment that ran across my face on seeing it being a cheap CG show.

CG anime can look good, like Trigun Stampede.

This... is not that level of CG.

When the kid was talking while sitting, at that moment looked good, but when the cg is in motion and moving, it dosent look that good which kinda sucks

The art style is suited to CG but not to a no-budget show, regardless of the medium. Never go full Berserk as they say. Or Fist of the Blue Sky: Regenesis is this case. See you all for the next anime in 203X.

I don't want to say that this is giving Berserk 2016 vibes just from one teaser trailer, but I will say I will be surprised if the final product doesn't land close to there
