As expected of the character designs.

I'm going to keep expectations low for now until the first three episodes. Visuals looks nice though.

The 3D seems to ruin all the nice visuals. Its like rokka all over again

That's some really mid 2000's looking CGI on the powered armor, but other than that looks solid enough. Character designs definitely have that Love Live blush to them.

Animation looks conservative with a hint of freshness, I would guess.

I quite like the overall look of this, very tokusatsu-ish. Hopefully it's nothing like Samurai Flamenco.

Samurai Flamenco was amazing and yes it looks like something that could be produced in live-action by Toei.

Honestly, I don't think the 3D looks bad at all. In fact, I'd say it's around Tiger and Bunny quality, at least based on what little we can see here. Hard to judge without a full action sequence.

The song is actually quite nice too. Other than that, lots of girls in the cast but I like how neither of the male characters are whiny teenagers. They look rather adult to me.

Liking the very 80's premise so far.

Goro Tanaguchi is involved so I'll definitely take a peek...

Not sure if you're fully aware, but Studio Orange who will do the 3D animations in this show also did the 3D in Rokka apparently.

They also seemed to have done the 3D in Tiger and Bunny. Well, one of the several studios to do so anyway.

Fingers crossed. I enjoyed the first arc of SF, but it just fell apart after that.

Personally, had no problem with the CG. PV looked good to me.

I hope that they can get this onto Crunchyroll. If those mecha suits were real, law enforcement could be more effective.
