Well, I like that cast list but my thoughts for the upcoming adaptation is kinda mixed so far. I'm not a big fan of the manga and hopefully, I hope they won't censor too much from this show.
Pretty good premise though. |

The whole premise behind this series is just so absurd, I can't help but be at least a little intrigued by it. The visual style, though, reminds me far too much of those awful Marvel anime adaptations that I just don't know how it's gonna play out with the Japanese crowd.

This looks incredibly stupid. Reminds me of Guillermo del Toro's Mimic and Starship Troopers.

Considering how well the manga sells there, I imagine just fine |

As a reader of the manga and one who is up to date with the story, I must say that this is one freakin amazing show/story. All the characters are interesting, and quite frankly badass.
Just take a look at the manga n u'll see what I'm talking about. Rest assured, you won't be disappointed

I read a lot of the Manga and while the beginning was exciting and enough to hold my interest for a short time, it dipped real quick and I felt 60% more dumber after I kept reading more. It's not amazing and people seem to be making it "their job" ramping and hyping this up to be the next "big thing". I know we all know what's amazing and bad these days but this just seems forced. I'm not surprised it's been a steady sensation in Japan but for me personally it's ridiculous and really is one of those "could've been" hits. Like I said the beginning was really exciting but then further away from that I didn't get it or even cared anymore. |

I tired volume 1 of this the other day.
And it sure wasn't what I was expecting. In a good way. The way it never pandered to the audience was really kind of fresh. I mean, it often set up these bug human vs roach fights, and then just... ended the fight in a single panel. And it was AWESOME. EDIT: I mean, it spent a good chunk of the first chapter setting up this semi-complex backstory between two characters.spoiler[ And then one of those characters is the first to die horribly. Their character arc unresolved] That takes some BALLS. |

Even though I haven't read any of Terra Formars yet and if that is any indication on what I should expect from this series then it sounds a lot like Gantz. If the shock value is anything like Berserk and Gantz levels then I'll check this out for sure but these Roach people and the premise seems a little goofy and off the wall for my tastes. |

It's definitely in that Berserk/Attack on Titan mold. But don't get me wrong, it's goofy and off the wall as all get out.
But for me that's a plus. Goofy premise, but played straight. |

That looks epic. Just so long as the lead male character isn't a whiny b!tch like eren in AOT.

I'd rather take a Marvel adaptation over this. I think it feels too serious for the visuals they're trying to make us accept. I'd always heard of the manga, but read zero about it. Now that I'm looking at it, I might not like it. |
