Would've considered watching this cuz SHAFT and interesting premise, but the character designs don't attract me all that much and I ain't into ecchi.
Cool to see SHAFT's still around though.

It looks good and kind of silly, it has the energy and charm of a good idol anime, but it lacks the essence of the Strike Witches franchise.
