Masaki Tsuzuki? Poster does not seem to hint Nanoha-verse, but who knows. I am fine with either a new original or a new part of the franchise.

The Nanoha-verse has been rather milked over the years, to varying degrees of quality. I tried to pick up some of the mangas post StrikerS but many of them kinda sucked.

Character info and staff announced

Based on the staff, it looks like a Seven Arcs show.

Yeah. Suzuki have not worked with other studios and other staff are regular collaborators. Though 7arcs already have 2 series planned for this year presumably. And their output during the last years is rarelly more than 2 per year.

Mangas are not that bad, though, I still cannot finish Vivid. And Vivid Strike was decent despite some people hating it.


Not sure what this new series will be about but arts shw diofferent types of sport and also idol stuff.

I'm still not sure what to make of this. I guess it's just a futuristic sports anime? No idea what kind of sport they'll be participating in. Maybe it's like a general sports thing where they use those extreme gears to engage in various miscellaneous competitions.

Doesn't seem like it will have anything to do with the Nanoha franchise. Whether it's the Vivid franchise or Dog Days, there's definitely a desire by the project writer for this to focus on extreme/unusual sports.

Vivid Strike. I'm still not sure if that show was good or bad. A very mixed bag and I totally get why some people hated it.

Also mixing idols and sports is giving me traumatic flashbacks to Pride of Orange .

The pic shows a soccer field, so I guess it's a soccer anime? Or maybe it's some sort of fantasy sports that just happens to take place in a soccer field... that would be pretty weird though. lol

[Liddo-kun]

what exactly is the plot of this?

There are 3 pics with girls playing soccer (are there to much americans here so we cannot use football), basketball and baseball.

PV is out. Looks like sci-fi spocon with idols.

So an idol anime with Shonen-level sports...okay .

[FlareKnight]

I still don't know what to make of this show. Though hey, it can't possibly combine idols and sports more awkwardly than Pride of Orange. So, guess we'll see how this turns out.

Not particularly hyped. But it could work better than I'm expecting.

Spoiler for ep1:

Boy oh boy...

I guess I like that they gave a better explanation as to why we have both sports and idols at the same place, but I can't shake off the idea that this would have been so much better if they just sticked to crazy sports and didn't throw in idol stuff just because a sports show wouldn't sell (in real life)

On top of that, the sports part is filled with questions on its rules. We got robots, who have infinite stamina, playing. People are just jumping into an on-going match.
Also, are they ever gonna touch on the fact all of this dangerous technology like extremely human-like robots and Ironman gear would totally be used for bad things?

Also, that loli all about sports is singing in the OP. That sure makes anything she says about loving sports a bit... not so important, you know?
