Looks interesting, so I'll most likely watch it. Dat date on the truck.

Meh. Nice animation, so its a shame the episodes are only 7 minutes.

I just downloaded the game this weekend after seeing adds for it in youtube compilations of Japanese commercials.

7 minutes sounds about right. Like hell I'd expect a story out of a mobile game that could fill 12 full length episodes, which is generally 4 novels. It'll be a nice short comedy I guess.

Now, this is what I am talking about. That is. putting a simulcast on YT that can shown to as many people as possible. In terms of it being 7 minutes, maybe because it's based off of a mobile game, that makes sense since game-based anime might not exactly have a standard source material compared to those based off a LN or manga.

Youtube channel premiere? Haven't seen this before. The animation looks quite nice, and the monster designs have some flair. The premise however... eh. Sounds like another "game about monsters turns real life and characters battle" kind of thing. Not that I have anything against it, but in the creativity department this wouldn't get a high score. Then again, it is a mobile game adaptation, so I guess some leeway can be given.
