This will definitely be one of those series to keep a good eye out for.

I've heard great...I mean absolutely fantastic feedback about this novel (something like "great execution that makes cliches fascinating" ), well, can't wait to see what this is all about then.
PS: For this kind of show, a seasoned series composition and competent animation production are required in order to be great. |

Since I have 0 knowledge about this LN series, I'll wait until the Cast & Staff announcements, and a PV is released, before I'll make my decision.
On the plus side, I do like the fact that this adaptation is for a LV that doesn't have loli/moe Bishoujos flashing their panties on the cover (although the cover for vol. 5 might be the exception, in seems) |

From the images I Googled on this series, it doesn't look like it would be 1 of those moe/harem LNs.

Well, I certainly loved this anime when it was set in space and called They Were Eleven.
In all seriousness, it does sound intriguing, and the novel covers look good. |

The novel was pretty good, but it is taking forever for vol 5 to come out (over a year). Also, TV series will be tricky as it is one continues story with no real break point

As long as the other six heroes aren't girls who all fall in love with the super strong boy, this has a chance of being good.
Except that it seems like a very small number of LNs to base a whole anime series on. Will it be one of those ten episode shows that stop in the middle and never get a real ending? |

Ooh, this sounds interesting, and I love the artwork on the covers. Looking forward to hearing more info on this!
I had this thought, too, so I looked it up, and it seems like, of the seven heroes, three are male and four are female. I suppose all the girls falling in love with the main character could still happen (though I am hoping not), but at least he's not the only guy around. |

Don't forget one of the most clichéd Harem tropes: the always-friendzoned same-gender friend. Again, having no prior knowledge of this series, I don't know if it does go that route, but it might not. |

Sounds interesting, but I fear the show will be just another animated commercial for the novels, and is just going to drop the story without completing it, like what happens 9 times out 10 when they adapt an incomplete work.
