The premise is very reminiscient of old-school fantasy novels from the past, and adding that with the great artwork, I will definitively watch it of course! Next season looks like it's going to be booted with good LN adaptations!

Just watched the PV and gotta ask something.
Is something wrong with my eyes? Cause the only thing caught by them is a bunch of watermelons. *I'm no good with fanservice, so i better stay out from this thread for a while* |

I'm no stranger to being turned off by indiscriminate fan service myself, but there's really a great plot to be found here, if you're just willing to give it a chance.
And the main character's actually a decently admirable guy, all things considered. ;> |

Because IIRC the story is based on some book the author got from his Russian friend. Book was about king and his 7 wifes or something and it takes place more in like "Eastern Europe" than Western. Heck, I even recognize the river in maps from LN even though it has different name. Also it has a lot of slavic mythology. A map.
