The visual is almost perfect.
It says everything about the story.

But it would have been better if the title of the anime was in another place.

3 assistant directors, that's a record. A bit yikes, ngl.

Knowing who are the ones in charge, it's still relatively safe.

Those with dirty minds will find my Steam pic offensive

I wonder why they had 3 assistant directors because maybe Cloverworks might fuck it up?

Jokes aside, I have high expectations for this.
