Rebellion S2 and/or Grimoire TV serie would have been so much more interesting than some OAV remake. If there could be some news specials scenes with at least Ymir and Airi i would be delighted Cool

However this new version of Nowa is just so much better, I barely recognized her.

I'm not a fan of the character designs for this remake. The only character that looks good is Echidna because they avoided the moe look for her: https://youtu.be/3E_xXbxT7QU?t=56s

I'm not sure about the new chara designs, but I look forward to seeing what Melona will be like.

A more moe design for QB? Awesome. Just what I always wanted.

No Menace? No Merona? From what I read Menace is one of the most popular characters in the franchise. Airi is probably the least villainous "villain" in QB, especially given how she grew in the original series. I'd have cast Merona in the role myself. As for Elina, she was one of my least-favorite characters throughout the series. In a battle between Elina and Airi, I'd take Airi's side.

At least they didn't try to follow on from the uninspired "Rebellion" series.

Only Airi looked similar to the previous character design.
Excluding new Echidna, the rest of the characters looked moe.
