Has anyone reading the novels by Mizuno some opinion on them? (maybe comparisons to Lodoss or other works from the same novelist)

They take green beginners to the main roles, but they collect All Star cast from the side characters. What's the point?

The animation looks really good & seems pretty well directed, kind of surprising actually. I thought they wouldn't put much that effort into this & made this "your run-of-the-mill fantasy anime." A good sign.

Why hit or miss? Is the manga not that good?

Quite skeptical still. Not because of the concept but still because of the director (again not the biggest fan of him but this is just me).

Isn't he the one who directed Rakugo anime? That anime is quite beautifully directed, don't you think.

Yeah its the same person that directed Rakugo. The thing is... I'm one of the very few people that dislikes Rakugo, and I have more of a problem regarding on this... just because both of them didn't grab my interest (this would apply with both in the PVs and as for the series... I have the feeling I will feel just like with Rakugo, bored out of my mind).

As a fan of fantasy and stuff like this I'm just skeptical a bit on this end.

Does look that amazing but pretty servicable.

Did read the first chapter of the manga and the tone of the PV doesn't quite match to that, but we'll see.

Been reading the manga version of this.

The action in the PV looks surprisingly good so far. Going to keep somewhat low expectations for though as this could easily be a hit or a miss.
