fan-service is killing animes, I feel sorry for whoever wasting his talents on making crap like this, I just hope that VAs won't be forced to play rules in such animes just to make their living.

It was fun few years ago when it wasn't basis of every anime, just an addition...

You guy are overreacting, this isn't nearly as bad as other stuff that's to come and currently airing. I'm cutting this one some slack since the fanservice seems based in character design more than choreography, there hasn't been a panty-shot in any of the trailers.

As fan service goes, this one looks to be on the light side. Even though I was "sensitized" to it by reading your message first, all I noticed was big bouncy boobs on some of the females, and not much else.

People whining about <insert_here> killing anime is killing anime. How would he be "wasting" his talent when he wants to make this? It might be a waste of your time to watch it, but it won't be a waste of his talent, time or effort to make it if he enjoys it. And VAs have many choices. No one is forced to do anything.

The visual designs for this show are amazing. Everything looks so *cool*. And I love how the girls have such huge breasts. IMHO, recent anime has been lacking in the "huge breasts" department.

If the setting/story/content can match excellence of the visuals, this might be my favorite anime of the season.

Nothing is killing anything. Even Hollywood survives! Bayformers thrives! Shyamalan keeps getting to do the twists he loves! Laughing

I can just tell already that this one will be difficult for me to watch. The character designs with the disappearing noses. Takes me right out of the narrative and dialog. That, and the boob socks. Clothes aren't made that way... just too weird looking.
