What the hell did I just watch?
I'm not very fond of the way the fairies look but that's just me.

Hmmm, it looks like later on the promo, that raw chicken is making an offer we can't refuse. I'm somehow curious about this series; it could end up being a hidden gem for the summer season.

Uh, I don't get it. No, I can understand the Japanese being spoken, I just don't get the show. The headless chicken was just like: <.<

I'm still confused about how the main character is the same age as her grandpa, isn't he an old guy in the promo?

The human protagonist of the story serves an important duty as the international arbitrator between the fairies and humans, and she returns to her former hometown of Kusunoki. She chose this job because she thought it was an easy job she can do, even when she is as old as her grandfather.


As I understood it, they are not saying she is elderly/the same age as her grandfather is now, rather that she chose the job because she thinks she will still be able to do it when she is that old. Though I get what you mean if you're saying that it's impossible for her to actually be the same age as her grandfather at any given point in time while they are both alive unless there's some fundamental difference in the way things work in this story compared to our reality.

Ah, that makes so much more sense since I interpreted it as "although she is the same age as her grandfather". This throws out the "fairies made her grandpa old" theory.
