Not a fan of the studio but that's a nice PV there. Good to know the show will premiere Summer!

The PV showed a good variety of art styles: from almost sumi-e-like (0:18), through an interesting use of 3D models (1:26), to a good, fluid animation (1:15).

Also, the red-haired character (Hero?) sounded like Ōsaka Ryōta.

If that's really him then that would be actually kinda funny since he also did the voice for the Demon King Sadao Maou

That guy was born a month and 2 days before me, but on the same year.

I am unexpectedly thrilled by this preview. With the staff and premise listed I am really hoping for the best with this series. It could be something special.

Animation is looking good in the pv. Hopefully the quality is not only for the few early episodes.

Seeing some early footages of Rail Wars (don't even remember finishing the first eps), I recall I was not very pleased by its visual detail nor animation. Now looking at this pv it left almost the opposite impression. So the studio's got its potential if it's taking it seriously.

The LN is pretty good on action AND story, so good luck for the studio to give the quality adaptation the original material deserves.

Nice PV. I'm a sucker for fantasy, so I'll definitely be checking this one out.

I'm way less optimistic given the mess Passione did with Rail Wars! and the treatment of the original author.

This looks great and I'm really digging the design of the main character. The only thing I would complain about was the brief part of the video where they showed that dog in CGI (I think), which I didn't really like.

Love reading the LN, I hope that once the anime is out someone will decide to translate the manga. spoiler[The story blends action with mystery, once you think you think a mystery is solved, it throws you right back into another one.]

I've always been fond of the fantasy genre, so I look forward to this. Not to familiar with the studio but I hope they will adapt it fairly good.
