I’ll definitely check it out, the premise actually sounds like something new and refreshing unlike most of the stuff that’s been getting green-lit these days. The art style stands out too. 😁 Maybe we’re beginning to see a Madhouse comeback after its sister studio’s been dominating these past couple years? 👀

I haven't read the manga or watched the live action, but from the synopsis it looks like Medhouse might be a pretty good choice to adapt such a work. It’s can be funny to see what the duo of Aqua and Gojo would look like in such a story, lol.
