So the PV is in 10 minutes, or the event which will have the PV starts in 10 minutes?
Basically, what is the ETA on the PV?
>>122549836
It's basically ex-Gainax members though.
I want to believe in Uchikosi but I'm feeling pretty skeptical.
>>122549888
Event starts around now, PV will be shown on the talk-show portion that's being aired on Nico before the actual episode screening.
Think half an hour for the PV or so.

I sense flop.
>>122549820
Eh?
>>122549988
Got a link?
The summary sounded pretty hilarious, I'm pretty hyped for this.
>MAPPA
I am assuming this one has a lower budget because they clearly spent way too much money on ZanTero and Shingeki no Bahamut, and they need to save up for now?
>>122550189
That's not how it works at all. FujiTV and .MAGES are the creators, MAPPA is an animation studio.
>>122549820
>>122550114
No! I had just watched the first PV until now, and what with it being animated and everything I figured everything was finalized. But no!
They made her go from brown with teal hair to lighter skinned with green hair.
Why? It had everything before.
>>122550150
It's Japan only.
If you live there, go on the links they're posting here:

Let's place bets on who best girl will be. I'm calling the megane NEET.
>>122550114
In some art they released some time ago the dark skinned silver haired chick had lighter skin and green hair
Though if I remember correctly she was still silver haired and brown skinned on the first PV they released, so maybe that artwork was outdated
>>122550312
>>122550344
Oh shit, forget it then, no more delicious brown
It baffles me why they would change the perfection combo of brown with light hair to a white skin with shitty green.

She is brown at 02, but not so brown at 06.
What gives? Does she have 2 designs?
>>122550189
Garo has been getting QUALITY lately but it seems that they can manage a budget

I'm so glad I'm not watching this shit
>>122550498
Looks like fun. Mappa animation looking good too.
>>122550498
Some scenes are really great, some are shit
This is gonna be weird.
>>122550498
The otaku pandering is through the roof. Seems MAPPA really wants this one to sell.
There is no way my otaku pandering anime can be a flop.
>>122550589
It depends how it's executed. Fingers crossed it isn't another Rolling Girls.
>>122550498
mc voice sounds extremely similar
>>122550498
Look like shit.I'll watch it anyway.
>>122550498
>Inoue Marina voicing the MC
Wow. I love Marina and I'm just glad it's not Matsuouka Yoshitsugu so that's pretty good.

>Akira bike shot
Incoming sakuga showcase.
I'm pretty sure that this'll go full haremshit at some point. Can't have otaku-pandering without harems.
Guess I'll watch it until then, at least.
>>122550786
>4 females
>1 male
how would it *not* be harem?
>>122550816
I want to believe.
Nosebleed gags are the fucking worst.
Other than that, looks fun.
>>122550786
Since the MC's a ghost, does that make the girls necrophiliacs?
>>122550949
>Nosebleed gags are the fucking worst
They're generic, unoriginal, and unfunny but I don't see how they're the worst thing ever.

They aren't literally the worst thing ever, but as shitty unfunny gags go, I'm not sure it gets much worse.
I guess I mostly hate it for when it gets used as a lazy way to get characters out of ecchi situations, which is another pet peeve of time (no one is allowed to fuck in those types of shows. I understand that editors won't let you go too far, but still). As a background gag it's stupid, but when you have characters passing out from nosebleeds, that's actually annoying.
Too much ecchi but
>Series Structure/Script: Uchikoshi Koutarou
I want to give it a chance.
>>122550498
That fucking voice
I want to punch the screen
>>122550498
Even with Uchikoshi Koutarou on board, I'm struggling to see how this will be any good.
Apparently they said to keep watching at least until episode 6.
>>122551569
Does that mean it's good?
Mashiro VA is on the cast huh?
She was the only good thing about that shitty show. I might watch this just for her.
Literally Mashiro's voice.
>>122550329
>Minako Kotobuki
Of course she will.
>>122551612
Could be bait.
After 6 eps you might be too invested to drop it.
>>122551612
That means it'sa ruse.
>>122551569
That's pretty long to get started. It's also just ~12 episodes right?
>>122550498
Resorting that much to lol pantsu tells me it's gonna be shit and as generic as any harem anime.
>>122551612
The writer is into plot twists. If you've read some of his other works (Ever 17, 999...) you should know what will happen.Alternate worlds, timelines, Blick Winkel. He always uses the same tricks.

>>122550498
My excitement for this just shriveled up and died. What the fuck.
There's going to be an animator (Uemura Hiromi) actually credited as "Pantsu Designer".
The anime is based on a scenario for a VN Uchikoshi was going to write (from the talk event).
http://www.famitsu.com/news/201503/15074054.html
Uchikoshi interview:
-There's a game being released in tandem
-There's a twist
-It starts out mosly as a comedy, and gets serious later
-There are 5 insert songs by Komuro Tetsuya, one of them is "Enka-like"
>>122552837
cool
>>122552837

Way to spoil and ruin it for everyone.

This looks way more entertaining than half the shit that's aired there recently.
>>122549820
Dropped
>>122550643
I think it's the same guy who did Hinata from Haikyuu
>>122553818
>>122553167
The twist is he actually staying dead for past 15 years, but before that he had sex, those 4 you just see are his children
>>122550498
Looks like it will be mediocre to decent and kept down by too much otaku pandering
>>122553906
If haremshit: literally disgusting, dropped twice in the first episode.
If not haremshit: potential to be not-shit, but will still most likely suck.

>>122554043
>>122550312
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>122552149
The ED animation is really wonderful. SD animation doesn't get a lot better than this.

Such as?
>>122554351
>Sakuga for no purpose
Why wouldn't they want their show to look good?
>>122553479
Something is telling me that this otaku pandering and comedy stuff is actually just bait.
>>122554351
>Even JC Staff stopped making such garbage.
But Magimoji Rurumo was decent
>>122554699
By then, you're going to call it AOTS.

>>122554351
>JC Staff
>stopped making such garbage
Pick one. Danmachi is pretty much garbage without sakuga.
>5 animation directors for episode 1
Ouch. Hope they can keep it together.
In retrospect just the fact they could change one of the girls' color scheme as late as they did showed they didn't have a lot done yet.
Ate least either way we get 100 cuts of Mihara Michio animation in the last episode.
The OP is good, it seems the 3-episode-rule won't work for this since the staff said to watch it at least to the sixth episode.
Well, if it can't grab my attention in 3 episodes it isn't any good anyway.
Let's just hope for the best and for the next Comiket because these designs are sex.
>>122554978
>In retrospect just the fact they could change one of the girls' color scheme as late as they did showed they didn't have a lot done yet.
I get what you're saying but isn't color scheme of one of the characters probably one of the easiest things to change mid-production?
>>122554978
>Animation Director
Please correct me if I wrong, but aren't animation director job only to check the key animation (because sometimes different key animators have different style in size, shape, etc) ?
Or they also doing / drawing the key animation ?
>>122555028
Uchikoshi said at least use 6 episode rule.
>>122555084
It should be. You don't need to reanimate anything.
>>122551569
Are they gonna pull a Slicing Simian or something?
>>122555147
How many episodes does it even have? 12?
This would be half of the series.
>>122555351
Noitamina so 11 or 22
>>122555084
Sure, but with 4~5.000 frames per episode even with just the ones with brown girl in it, it would still be a lot if they had to do it to like 6 episodes.
>>122555112
They also need to fix bad animation. Which thanks to the ubiquitous 2nd-key-animator system nowadays is usually a lot.
>>122555084
In today's day and age, yeah. You just take your paint-bucket tool in photoshop and start clicking. Back in the day though, when shit was painted on celluoid and filmed on cameras, this would have killed production.
>>122555474
>>122555474

I get it. But I have a feeling a lot of people are not going to get a lot of the puns. Translators are going to have a field day with this, assuming they even bother.

>>Sakuga for no purpose outside of stealing good animators from PEOPLES WO DO NEED THEM
HAHAHA
This is example of mentality of retards who think that producing anime they don't like makes "show they could like" vanish.
>>122559358
it's true though, if this shitty shows, if every harem would disappear, we'd have more better and quality series every season instead of more garbage like this
So Uchikoshi is involved.
On a scale from 1 to 10, how likely is it that there is going to be a batshit insane twist?
>>122559495
source: my ass.
>>122559533
simple logic, if writers didn't focus on writing shitty haremd they'd focus on writing better stuff, simple as that
>>122559495
like?
>>122550498
Trash. Didn't expect much anyways.
>>122559684
everything is better than harems
>>122557402
>this won't flop, sadly
Just pull that trigger already
>>122553789
>entertaining=fun
The story and characters will be trash.
>>122559495

They would be unemployed, you imbecile.
>>122559738
>It's okay if they deliver shit as along as it's my shit.
>>122559795
Entertaining trash > boring trash.
>>122559738
There's plenty of good harems out there, like Tench Muyo or Love Hina, I bet you only watch the trashy series of that genre they keep churning out each season. Go back watching tryhard edgy garbage like Tokyo Ghoul, you piece of shit.
>>122560016
>There's plenty of good harems out there
stopped reading there
>>122550498
As expected, it's shit.
>>122560040
Like what?
>>122550498
and in that moment, all hype was crushed
>>122559495
>>122559560
Just because it's harem doesn't mean it has to be bad. Sure there were plenty of bad stuff like any other genre, but there were exceptions as in being actually good (Tench Muyo, Love Hina, Negima).
Name at least one single good harem that comes out in the last two years please.
>>122560381
there's no such thing as a good harem
>>122560401
Fuck off already and watch your nuruto
>>122560498
>implying i watch that shit
>implying shounen garbage is much better than shitty harems
>>122560401
Chaos;Head (the VN), Amagami SS and YnS would like to have a word with you.
>>122560784
Yosuga no Sora? That's shit. The average generic harem is better than that.
>>122553818
The fuck is this?
Why would they ruin a character like that?
>>122563807
Same.
We don't often get delicious brown girls with light-colored hair in anime these days if my memory serves correctly, but The Fruit of Grisaia had one even though she's a side character.
>>122563976
This show looks really terrible. Even more so that it has MAPPA and Trigger employees working on it. And the fact that it goes through a shift in tone at the halfway mark makes me believe this will be even worse then Kill la Kill.
>>122564126
Why do you care? Don't watch it then.
Nigga should just make Zero Escape 3, dammit
>>122550498
Looks like I was right to not pick this up.
Back in my days Noitamina meant something.
>>122564558
I care because shit anime makes anime look bad and people flock to more light novel self insert garbage or moe pedophile pandering idol shit. What if all anime becomes like that one day? It'll be shows like this one's fault.
>>122565051
Here is your reply.
>>122565051
Why the hell do you care about what people say? Do you post about anime on facebook?
>>122565051
Oh, same kind of retard as described here>>122559358
>>122565111
Fuck you.
>>122565154
I care because scum original anime just make people flock to the same ole same ole boring ass shit and I want it to change for the better. Waifus and lolis and idols need to disappear yet nobody won't do anything despite how stagnated it has become. If anime were to change to be multi faced instead of some loser fatasses fantasy while they continue contributing nothing to society other than more human excrement in the ground then it could finally be a form of entertainment worth respect.
>>122565373
