Hello, are there any manga readers of this anime? What is your opinion about the story? Personally I have a thing for mahou shoujo genre but things like Mahou Shoujo Site made me really reconsider what is worth watching and what is not.
The visuals seems nice, however.
EDIT: so I´ve binged the manga and it is really good, so my question more or less answers itself now. However, the manga is only around 14 chapters long and the story is just beginning to unravel, so I wonder whether they will adapt all of it and made up the end, or they simply will use one or two chapters to introduce the characters and the rest will be filler.

Oh really? That great news for the anime, but not so great for me :D Do you by any accident know about someone who is still translating? Or anything above ch14 is just raw?

Heard of the manga, but its rating on MAL made me skeptical on whether it is worth checking.

Being a big Madoka Magica fan, I have become infatuated with darker/more serious takes on mahou shoujo, such as Kill la Kill and Princess Tutu. Will definetely check the anime though, I think it will be worth a 8/10!

I think the ratings on MAL are often overestimating, I guess?? I mean how many times I checked some anime which should be very good and I was disappointed.
But anyway, hello fellow Madoka fan! Madoka is probably my favourite anime and just now I also bought the manga, my very first one (I am so excited..!). But trust me, Asuka is pretty dark too. Actually, it reminded me of Madoka, but only in beginning. Anyway first 14 chapter are translated elsewhere, so you can check it out for yourself and see whether you like it or not.

Honestly, just think of MAL rating system as 1-5, though in this case a rating of 5 being 0, and rating of 10 being 5. You get what I mean, haha.

Regardless, I will definitely watch this. :)

I'll be watching. Like Spyros said above me, after watching Madoka I've gotten interested in watching dark themed magical girl series. I think the last one I watched was magical raising project a year or 2 back. I also wanted to read the manga, but translations were dropped, so I'll be going in blind.

Same to me with the manga, I also checked out the raws but unless kanji is translated I just can´t read it.
Anyway, I am happy that there will be at least few people watching and I hope the anime will meet our expectations :)

The animation for the PV looks pretty shoddy, so probably not.

This looks unique...from their bodies and age. Never heard of the original creator though, but saw that he wrote Psycho Pass. Is he good?

The PV's animation looks nice and the art style looks very good.
The action looks awesome and the Mahou Shoujo setting seems interesting (something like Madoka's style wich is nice).

Definitely watching it.

I really like magical girl shows and Madoka is one of my favorites the problem is that most dark magical girl anime isnt dark at all but just edgy, hopefully they can create a good atmosphere in this show.

the PVs look terrible so.... I give it a 90% chance of being crap (to me) and so I'll give it a few episodes but my expectations are extremely low

Part of me feels like this will be this season's edgy show and I normally find those shows from the past seasons to be funny so I'll probably watch it

It is start of the series, the manga is still ongoing, but translation stopped because it is officialy translated in English. I don´t understand your second question so I´ll pass on that one.

As someone who was never a fan of military themed shows, I am kind of hyped by this. The main protagonist for some reason reminds me of Homura Akemi. But I am however afraid that this show might turn out edgy for the sake of being edgy and I don't really like the artstyle that much.

Yes, because I watched Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica and Mahou Shoujo Ikusei Keikaku, and because Seinen anime introduce sexual themes in unexpected ways.

But I'm not starting it immediately.

Just don't expect anything deep. I read the manga when was scanlated and it's just straighforward action shit with occasional yuri and yuribaits later on (probably won't be adapted). Wonder how much violence will be censored.

No,the synthesis the words "mahou" and "shoujo" in the title name create quite an odious response from my inner self. But by all means do not be led to believe that this humble servant is expressing the same disgust towards the viewerbase of such titles. NOT IN THE LEAST.

I am not arguing with you, but I liked Mahou Shoujo of the End better (though I am curious how will the manga end)
