I'm watching this show purely on the facts that:

1. We share the same name.
2. This is probably what I would be doing if I was a dropout and a loli.

uhm... angel who is drop out and...

A much clearer synopsis:

The comedy follows Gabriel White, who graduated at the top of the class at angel school and attends a human school on earth in pursuit of knowledge, but then gets engrossed in a web game and decides its too much trouble to go anywhere.

Doga Kobo is enough for me to at least give it a looksee. Hmm....

I didn't mind action series from them, it's just that they aren't received well I heard (see Luck & Logic even though I haven't finished it) and the only time I see people giving some compliment was Majestic Prince, but it isn't as much as the SoL ones they make.

If you are talking about the mech animation, it is not Dogakobo at all. Orange did it. And yes, Orange did stellar work at it.

After checking out the manga, this is definitely Dogakobo material. Looking forward to it.

You're right, but I'm just talking about outside of the mech animation, that's all.

That said, Orange seems to have a very close relationship with the studio in a few series they have collaborated.

Hmm ... well, I tried out some chapters of the manga, and while it was okay it did not really do much for me. There were a few chuckle worthy moments in the chapters I read.

Basically Gabriel in the series has a vaguely similar personality to the less impressive aspects of both Anzu from the Idolm@ster Cinderella Girls or Umaru from the Himouto! Umaru-chan series. So I guess if you like that kind of humor or angle on things it could be your thing.

However, Dogokobo is pretty skilled in taking a series of this sort and making it better in its anime adaptation form, so I think I will still give it a try, although my curiosity is now mixed a bit with wariness, to be honest.

Thanks to reading some new scanlated chapters I remembered that I have been reading the first couple chapters a long time ago.

Satanya is really cute.

[RapidPotential]

I just blasted through the chapters yesterday. Will be picking this up. Weine too cute.

I think, given their track record so far, Doga Koba could make something good out of this.

Besides, that slacker Gabriel is obviously just there to serve as a bad example: Weine is clearly the real protagonist.

I could be wrong, but I think this is the first time we've ever seen the full name of the girl whose name gets translated as "Weine." Vignette? That seems notably different... Well, I suppose it does show up as Weinette in one or two places in the translation... German pronunciation?

OK, since no one mentioned it, here the cast list from the PV above:

• Miyu Tomita as Gabriel White Tenma
• Saori Ōnishi as Vignette April Tsukinose
• Naomi Ōzora as Satanichia McDowell Kurumizawa
• Kana Hanazawa as Raphiel Ainsworth Shiraha

Commenting about the cast, I could imagining Kana Hanazawa as Raphiel already . But I really didn't have any idea about the other. The one that I know is Vignette's VA has been voicing Eriri from Saekano before. But dunno, there's no way she will voicing the cute, gentle, and kind Vignette like how she voicing Eriri.

It seems like French according to webster dictionary.
