This actually looks really good, I'll definitely watch it when it comes out. That trailer & the song in the beginning hit hard tho. I'm actually excited for this one, the CG doesn't look bad either I actually really like the character designs & backgrounds!

Excited for his, can't wait for some CG Eye Candy. The models have a nice amount of details, and there some small, subtle movements here and there, obviously not film quality, but it's nice that it's taking advantage of 3D a bit to include things ya don't always see consistently in 2D.

If anything , the Backgrounds looks absolutely Subarashi .

The CG doesn't look that bad . The drawback is the common problem with cg anime : expressions and movement .
Here is to hoping it isn't the next ex arm ...

Was Revisions ever a good show? The CG values are standardish of Shirogumi.

i got shit taste lol but ye i enjoyed it since its a good time travel show

NGL I kinda remember when it came out, and once it finished it faded into obscurity lol. The only redeeming value of that show is the amazing OP.
