Giraffe is one of the more unique and surreal characters in anime in recent years so it's very fitting for Tsuda to be playing a role in an Ikuhara show. Of course he's also well known as Kaiba in Yugioh. The theme song sounds pretty catchy too. And is this is our first time seeing the animation without the photo realistic backgrounds? I guess this PV confirms they won't be using that photo realistic background style all the time and maybe only use it in certain surrealist moments?

The director of Revue Starlight was actually a student of Ikuhara's who previously did animation work for Penguindrum and Yuri Kuma Arashi, so I'm sure this is all a very intentional homage.

Excited to hear Tsuda's involved. I'm a big fan and it'll be nice hearing him in an Ikuhara anime. (especially after Starlight) Figures he'll be playing one of those characters though. He's so typecasted, haha.
