Looks like I finally have something to look forward to in 2014.

I'm hoping for 26 episodes at least, it looks fun. Good character designs.

The animation is stellar, hopefully the anime will be as excellent as this PV with everything necessary present (none of this, you want for example action, you have to play the game bullshit, that kind of thing ruined Fantasista Doll for me).

Watch the anime becoming BlazBlue quality.

The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

BlazBlue director vs. Bahamut director. Not expecting it to be as trashy as BlazBlue at all. Haven't watched any of Satou's works, but I've at least heard good things about T&B (I really need to watch that some time).

The director doesn't matter as much since it's a mobile game, the production committee or anyone else in charge (even the director himself) can omit a lot of necessary elements and plot points to force virewers to play the game. Good business strategy but very detrimental to the overall quality of the anime, it could also affect the BD bonuses resulting in shit sales.

This is what I needed, a magical fantasy action adventure. I assume that the PV is for the game though.

EDIT: Nevermind, it's an anime preview.

My thoughts as well... it gave me a Record of Lodoss War feeling watching the trailer. I sure hope the story does not end up like shit.

Actually, the Kanji (Chinese character) of Shingeki's "Shin" in Shingeki no Kyojin and Shingeki no Bahamut Genesis are different. Shingeki in Shingeki no Kyojin is Progressively Attack (進撃), while in Shingeki no Bahamut is Godly Attack (神撃).

What. Screw the similarities between SnK and this title because the PV said Tiger & Bunny and that's the most important thing here.

I hope that this anime is not going to be like previous game adaptations. It looks like it has potential but....

Has anyone here actually played the game? What's it like? Is there ecchi?

It's a social game masquerading as some kind of card battle/RPG (battle outcomes are all calculated with no player involvement) thing - a total piece of crap by traditional game standards, but hey, it's making them hundreds of millions of dollars. DeNA has serious cash to blow, so a big budget anime is pocket change.

You can try it for yourself if you have an iOS or Android device.

At the end of the day, think Candy Crush Saga. Basically, it's very successful at coercing a minority of gamers into emptying their bank accounts.

I dig the setting, but the characters design are a bit meh for my taste and that CGI dragon was seriously horrible. I'll definitely keep a look on it, though.
5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...

Huh...this game seems similar to a few I played when I got my iPad. I got bored of those games very fast. So it does have scantily clad women in it. And a few good looking men. Hmmm. I wonder how this is going to translate into an anime.

Holy shit great PV, fantasy medieval and magic action? :)

My only problem is the female, it ain't no place for women in that kind of place. Oh and, horse riding on top of the roof? Seriously? -.-! Wonder how well the CGI will work in this show, and I am not too fond of that character design..

I dunno if the red haired afro guy is a man or a woman, but whatever it looks awesome, what looks like the main guy has a badass set of hair. Do we know if it's a series or a movie yet?

Yeah, video game adaptions do tend to pull that shit a lot. But idk, my hunch is telling me that it won't be the case for this one. A good anime adaption can still do a lot to promote the source. And even if the writing isn't that good, I'd still consider the anime a worthwhile experience if it wasn't lacking in non-story direction (OSTs, camera angles, etc). Anime like these can get away with not being story-driven.

KARAS and Towa no Quon are examples of this. Incidentally, KARAS music composer is behind this.
