It's 3Hz and Actas.
アニメーション制作：Studio 3Hz、アクタス

Character designs look familiar? Is this the designer who did Zvezda? I'm guessing the music was done by Yuki Kajiura. I thought this'd be some yuri slice of life crap, but this looks pretty badass.

Dangit all ... just because it is Studio 3 hrz means I have to give it a try!

Well ... I am curious if nothing else. Hmmmm.

A Victorian Goth loliita anime with music by Yuki Kajiura? SOLD!

Yes, Yuki Kaijura is doing the music for this. The character designs are done by Yukie Akiya. (worked on Sora no Method before)

Masaki Tachibana is directing. There's also a game coming for this too.

I know, right?

And Studio 3 hrz ... extra plus for me.

Was just thinking the other day how it has been a while since I saw something like Dantalian no Shoka too....

Synopsis from MAL

The stage is set during the 19th century London, in its capital where a wall divides the east and west of the Kingdom of Albion. Five high school girls, who enrolled in the prestigious Queens May Fair School, are involved in spy activities that involve disguise, infiltration, car chase, and more. These girls take advantage of their special abilities and fly around the shadow world.

Sounds pretty darn solid considering the people working on it and the music.

Will keep an eye on this.

[Nachtwandler]

Both studios recently had big flops with anime-originals with all-female cast but they decided to try one more time

Not that I mind.

[Yamada II]

The premise is actually pretty cool. I have hopes for 3Hz visuals, though I'm not sure about Actas. Just hope Actas doesn't screw up and this airs in one go.

[tsunade666]

looking forward to it but why now? summer release and its already nearing spring.

[Kismet-chan]

...Interesting. I will probably watch this, too. Just going to hope reeeeally hard it doesn't go downhill like Flip Flappers did. (Which I still enjoyed, regardless.)

I'm no fan of loli characters, but the summary and Kajiura got me in.

PV #2

[Random Wanderer]

...Looks violent. If they start killing cute girls, I'm out.

[Flower]

Well, its a spy thriller and set in dark late 19th c London ... would not be surprised if there were deaths.

But yeah ... this one still looks like it will be a popcorn chewing series for me - happily so.

[Infinite Zenith]

I’m watching this. It can’t be more violent than DOOM or Fury

[bastek66]

Girls are too cute for this setting, but with Okouchi I expect trainwreck anyway.
