This kinda reminds me of both Unbreakable Machine Dolls and Familiar of Zero.

That random 10 second interlude of near-tentacle porn was quite strange. It's like the BGM even completely changed to acknowledge that it was completely out of place.

Anyway, definitely skipping this.

I've seen all I need to see, pre-emptively dropped.

So very true. It does make the few times they get the execution perfectly all the more fantastic though.

I was thinking more dragon drive, and Familiar of Zero.

A Familiar of Zero with (if the trailer is anything to go by) even more fanservice... it looked cool before it morphed into some sort of softcore tentacle porn.

Well, this looks absolutly terrible. Kind of starts out a little promising, and then goes off the deep end into full on nope territory.

To be fair though, there tends to be at least one show each season that, at first glance, looks like horribly generic otaku pandering garbage, but then turns out the be a fairly amusing entertaining show. I think Outbreak Company turned out to be that show this season.

Well, aside from that guitar solo, this one can go fudge itself.

Kinda surprised to see so much hate for the PV, it seemed fine to me. I'm certainly watching it, I love these otaku action shows.

Looking good, been interested since it was announced and this confirms my interest. Just got to decide whether to read the manga first seeing as Seven Seas are releasing it next year.
