I have some mixed feelings on the studio but this is one of the light novels that I actually enjoyed reading to the latest volume so far. Hopefully they can capture the thrills of the story. The character designs so far looks decent based on the visuals and PVs.

This sounds and looks like a lot of fun. Some of the staff members have done.good stuff in the past, so I'm eager to see how it turns out.

Rokka: Braves of the Six Flowers will probably not appeal to me, and fantasy stuff is not usually my cup of tea. I am only curious about how it will be received because this will be another Ponycan USA title.

I want to believe this will be decent, but its staff and source material seem to be... crap?
Though that didn't stop Majestic Prince from being a solid 8/10 show so...

It sounds like this could be good or it could be "generic light novel adaptation #2545638". We'll just have to wait and see.

Character design and character archtype do not look original one bit.....Unless this show gets good reviews, I will be skipping this one.

Looking at these guys, I don't want any of them to be the imposter, I want them all!

Honestly the character designs are pretty decent imo
If this were a JRPG I'd probably consider playing it

Girl wearing animal ear helmet in an over-sexualized dress? Obligatory loli? Black Rock Shooter with an eye patch? The only one that I actually like is Maura's design, which has a hint of sophistication without jeopardizing her appeal. As for all the other ones... feels like the character designer was trying too hard to make something complicated. I also REALLY REALLY don't like how Adlet's pants touches the ground, makes him look like one of those rock musicians.

The staff, Director, Series Composition, and Music dude have made successful shows in one category or another. It'll be interesting to see what talented people will do with a LN adaption like this. Considering the general disdain for LN adaptions that I've observed so far.

From reading the description, I'm guessing the main character is either the imposter or none of them is.

Has it been covered in the book yet? That'll determine whether or not I actually even bother with ep 1.

The MC is not the impostor(that's not even a spoiler,he's the first one that's ruled out)Also yes,there definitely is an impostor among them.

Except that actually is a spoiler. Come on man.

All ill say meiam is that by the end of the first volume the actual imposter is determined so yes its covered.
