Lol, the theme song is amusing for this PV. I really hope this will be a 2 cour as there's quite a lot to adapt from the manga.

Btw, here's the youtube version of the preview:

I can't tell if they're suppose to look off or if that's unintended…

Holy crap it gets worse the more you look!

That guy, it's like his face is frozen, do we find out half way trough he's monster who wear human skin?

And the girl with the orange hair, her smile! At some point she'll go "do you wanna know how I got this smile?".

Horned girl least creepy part is her horn!

No matter how many times I see it, the key visuals remain absolutely terrible. What did poor JitsuWa do to deserve that!? T_T

At any rate, the PV shows designs that look much better animated. It's not the unique style of the manga, but it's promising enough for me. Here's to hoping for a great adaptation!

Agreed, the PV gets me back into "cautiously optimistic" after the horrible key visuals put me in "disgusted and pessimistic."

Kind of like the theme song.

And, I'm another that was taken aback by the key visual. But, seeing the animated sequences in this PV, my faith is partially restored.

I will concede the lead Yoko looks better animated. But that just makes me wonder why didn't they work on the rest of the cast.

The show looks well handled and it should be entertaining but it has such a high hurdle to clear with just with the guy and that blue haired... girl.

That key visual is pretty damn creepy. Shocked

The PV looks pretty decent though, so I'll suspend all pessimism for now and add it to my ever growing list of Summer shows to watch.

Still it's kind of funny/strange how the animated designs actually look superior. Confused
