I really hope the PV's suspenseful atmosphere extends to the actual show and with one of Steins;Gate's main directors in charge it's definitely not out of reach.
The character design looks a bit too cutesy for my taste but it shouldn't matter too much if everything else works out.
I love the colour design and with Studio Pablo it's almost guaranteed to have gorgeous background art. Hopefully Mari Okada continues her winning streak even beyond her most recent work on Nagi no Asukara.

This is a card battle anime, huh.

[Student no.0]

The PV left me expecting a Madoka x Fantasista Doll kind of show. Might keep tabs on this.

[ultimate_noob]

Looks good. I'm all in for these mystery/horror/edgy shows. JC staff original finally after a long time.

>Mari Okada on an anime original

NOPE.

[totoum]

Ok Okada, remember everything you did wrong in BRS and don't repeat that


That said the PV does really intrigue me so I'm going to hope for the best.But if only this had ended up with Atsuko Ishizuka directing I'd have been even more hyped.

Seriously the PV looks interesting, so I hope for this kinda of series she learned from BRS .

Yugioh + AKB0048?

This has trainwreck written all over it, but that in itself has a certain curiosity factor going for it.

[Eisdrache]

Chaos;Head but better? The PV has me interested.

[Utsuro no Hako]

I don't care what anyone says, Okada has never written a show that has failed to entertain me. Even if not always for the right reasons.

[Tenzen12]

If nothing else I finished every Okada work I watched.

Though I often hated every minute of it

[Nachtwandler]

And I liked BRS TV so if it would be like it and not like Gen'ei I'll definitely watch it

[Kismet-chan]

You know, I watched PV last night and gained a certain view about it... But I came back just now and read the staff list/others' comments. I did not know Okada was on this initially, yet the PV gave me some BRS vibes. I am not sure if I am more or less hopeful about this now. Like Utsuro no Hako, I tend to be entertained by Okada's work... even if it's for the wrong reasons (which is often).

I would be feeling this more if the designs were a little less cutesy... but if this actually ends up showing some promise, I could get over it.

[MisaoFan]

Watching the PV is like a collective mishmash of Black Rock Shooter, Daybreak Illusion and the currently ongoing Z/X Ignition, so there's high hopes it would turn decent at best, but I need to try the first few episodes to see if it's good, though I do mildly enjoy Mari Okada's works.

This about covers it for my opinion. I'm still considering if I should consider watching this or not. I'll probably consider it if when it comes out there's a shortage of interesting shows.

Nope. I pass.

[dniv]

The trailer already looks amazing. The staff involved is pretty amazing. J.C. can be good. Shana's VA and other amazing VA's are here. The music is amazing on all fronts.

Why does Spring season have this many good things at the same time? This is going to make me fail my classes...

[SkoolRumble4Ya]

Cute girls in a dangerous game written by Okada Mari and Index music composer. I'm fuckin hype.
