lets see if WhiteFox will be able to have better animation on fight scenes because the fight scenes on Katanagatari are bad only exception is the last episode of Katanagatari though

Orly? My favorite manga is getting an anime adaption? I'm looking forward to it, but I hope it won't end up as crap like I'm fearing it does. Either way, it'll give the series more exposure and get more people to read the manga, so I'm all happy about this.

That's pretty much my take on things, even though I personally find White Fox's artstyle generally flat and dull.
Guess people forgot all about this one

In the two series that White Fox has helmed (Katanagatari of 2010 and Steins;Gate in 2011), I would say they have quite a bit of flexibility in style and animation. They have proved that they're quite able to animate incredibly-fluid and dramatic sequences, along with portraying proper characterization and interesting dialog.

I have faith in them, as a studio, to do justice to the manga. Looking forward to the anime.

Full adaptation and White Fox? Sounds like a good watch.

I like White Fox and action series, so I'm watching this
Also, I guess we'll be getting the same ending from the manga that's always good

I wonder when this will air, I was guessing it would be airing in Spring but that seems to be unlikely now since that's right around the corner.

Looks awesome. The characters and plot are pretty original.

This only means the chance of there being filler is now greatly reduced. Also WhiteFox has yet to let me down...

I think it looks appealing.


Hope it's good.

Yayifications! It may be totally worth watching given that White Fox is responsible for the adaptation. And it's been a while since there was a good anime with guns 'n knives as the premise... yup, let's hope for a success.
