| Cool. I didn't know about this studio but what they got line up sound interesting. |
| Because we're stupid that we love to have fun |

Nominated for the 4th Manga Taisho in 2011. some of it chapter already translated... not my cup of tea sadly... ____________________________________________ looking forward to golden kamuy... one of my favorite manga... and teh studio look visually decent... hope not rushed... waiting for more information for other series... |
 "If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |
| They should've have taken Beatless as well :( |
| All 3 works so far look to be interesting, especially 1st and 3rd. Just glad none of them are generic LN adaptations. |
 |
| Hyped about these! Looking forward to golden kamui |
 |
| Liked what i read of Kokkoku, excited for the adaptation. And loved Golden Kamui, great that it gets recognized and adapted! |
 |
| All three have a ton of potential. Golden Kamuy is an incredible manga and I hope it gets adapted well. |
| Wow Kokkoku looks like a good mature anime its teaser was really interesting, i'm looking forward to it. I don't know Golden Kamuy but i'm curious about it so i hope it will be good too. I'm glad to see there will be more entertaining animes to come out in 2018. |
| Kokkoku could be interesting but the staff is pretty meh and the manga, while its only 50 votes, seems to have mixed reception with barely under 7.00. (made in abyss had 7.3 when the anime was announced tho so im not going to judge it for that). anyway the PV seems pretty decent. also the manga is finished so i guess we gonna have a full adaptation which is a +. also nice surprise to see them doing Golden Kamui with a solid staff this time around ! wonder when they gonna air it.. also hyped for an original from Takahiro Omori, the dude is underrated as f. Looking forward to see whats hes been cooking for 10 years. |

| Kokkoku PV looks so good. Looking forward for this anime |
| Oh great, a new replacement studio for Manglobe.. that who's also behind of Project Itoh (Meh ain't that kinda sucks) Still gonna look forward Golden Kamui tho xD Wah I'm quite confused while reading Kokkoku it's just as mindless as Aku no Hana, well the manga has a lot more details than the animu and it could be bad literally |

 "Think about that glowing dust That destroys the night sky's dream of Just being nothing"--  -- |
| I have a mixed feeling toward newly formed studios, but at least a script writer of Baccano is not bad at all and the key visual is decent. So I will stay optimistic and be looking for new PV from Golden Kamuy anime adaptation. |
| Very interested in Golden Kamuy. I'm guessing it will air Spring or Summer next year. Did not expect Kokkoku to get an anime tbh. I've read a few chapters and it's a strange series. |
 |
| I am interested in the series by Takahiro Omori.Will watch the PV and decide whether or not to watch it. |
 |
| I'm mostly waiting for Golden Kamui. Kokkoku might be interesting too, but I'm not sure if it's my cup of tea. |
| Oh nice this new studio is picking up alot of stuff id imagine a studio like managlobe would of before they entered their dying stages. Most interested in the oomori anime |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| Wasn't grimderp what did Manglobe in to begin with? Guessing this studio will keep doing the same mistakes. |
 |
| So is Geno LITERALLY Manglobe 2, or is there no relationship beyond Genocidal Organ? Honest question. |
✧ |
| Kokkoku sounds really cool. It doesn't seem like your typical mediocre edgy premise so I'm interested in it. |
| Ohh, that studio. The one that finished Manglobe's movie. Seems interesting. I'm willing to give those all a shot. |

| Kokkoku... stopping time seems mildly exciting and visuals look pretty cool and action-filled. But those plots also easily devolve into trash... |
| Don't we know the name of the third one? |
