There being a lot of scenes of that plane, which from the synopsis seems like just the pilot's (pun not intended) focus, is worrying.

I could see this going the gets-way-worse-after-ep-1 route.

And a Vtuber ED? Seriously? Christ help us.

Wth, a Vtuber performing an ED theme, well more reasons to watch this anime!

I know it's not the first time this happened (maybe idk), but that caught me interested. Hopefully the intensive promotional push this anime has been receiving will translate into popularity and ofc those LN & Blu-Ray sales.

Although since this only started in late 2019, I figure that a potential S2 will not come out until 2023-2024.

Has something changed in the adaptations of modern LNs? For some reason, I no longer feel the same charm of shows like Toradora or Oregairu that I caught in the 00s.

The LN is definitely great and they're going with 3 vols for this anime
Now this anime will definitely be popular if they don't mess up the adaptation

imma be honest , with every PV they have released my impression of this anime is just going down . the only good thing that has caught my eye so far is that brilliant action scene with the white haired girl . Got ridiculous amount of shadings to it and it looks phenomenal .
