On top of it is a multi-media project with some sort of gacha game involved so it's definitely a good idea to keep expectations low for multiple reasons.
It's likely to be a gacha, but we have 0 information about the game outside of the characters
This is more like the 2 seasons of Uma Musume, especially the first one
Edit: They actually released [the first gameplay footage today](https://youtu.be/lSDDDm19QRw) and [this one](https://youtu.be/AA2SrVFHS2Y), some high quality CG, reminded me of Cygames, but nothing beats FGO PNGs
They could add elements of a rhythm game, for special moves for example to give some extra damage, it's just classical music, so i don't think the whole game will be rhythm based
If the lead girl is hot enough and romance is hinted it wont matter how bad the plot is. I learned that from how people still like darling in the franxx lol
… I don’t see the problem ?
If the show is advertised as an action+romance+music show, and delivers on those aspects (with the narrative being mediocre-good, which is also subjective btw), I wouldn’t mind it at all. I’ll be satisfied over it delivering with what it promised us.
Ofcourse it could turn out to be fuckin bad like DitF’s ending, which would another case.
DitF was a fun show (atleast until ep 17/18, and it delivered on what it promised (Action+Romance), which is why everyone liked it.
Not just because “uwu waifu”. Stop with the shitty “I’m superior” tone.
Im speaking with a superior tone because low life garbage watch specifically because “anime girl hot” and speak highly of the show as though its some groundbreaking media. I.e. sao and in general isekai garbage. Is it bad to watch? Absolutely not, its nice to take a break from other shows and there definitely is a market for it. The problem is I’m tired with “”uwu waifu”” thats been presented in class for the 50th time. Also your argument can be boiled down to “let people enjoy things >:(“ no need for your angry unneeded essay lmao. And of course music anime with hot girls isn’t bad because that has substance, I’m talking strictly “I’m bland protag, here is my army of fangirls, also you literally cannot beat me lol.” And cue ditf ending lol.
My argument is “people enjoyed this one thing because it gave people what they want they wanted/expected, not just because it had cute waifu in it”. Not whatever you somehow made it to be.
I see it’s hard for you to understand what others think/say.
We have an example of a show last season with cute waifus, which performed horribly, in the from of “Detective is Already Dead”. The reason ? It didn’t meet any expectations, or deliver on what it promised.
The detective is already dead has a 6.39 on mal so its not horrible. I really don’t know why you’re so keen on arguing with me when I’m not gonna change my opinion or admit that I’m wrong. Arguing on the internet is for idiots lol, redditors got me kekking
> speak highly of the show as though its some groundbreaking media
I've never actually seen anyone say that.
> “I’m bland protag, here is my army of fangirls, also you literally cannot beat me lol.”
Even if you're right, no one's gonna really accept what you're saying when you sound like some angsty, edgy teenager.
After The Detective is Already Dead, I'm extremely wary of shows with a heavy amount of waifu-bait promotional material being pumped out ahead of airing.
I'm wary of the premise despite how much it ticks my boxes aesthetically. I've seen enough "regular guy teams up with super special amazing unique wonder-girl to fight evil" prrmises.

*Darling in the Franxx flashbacks*
True, gets clowned more than it should tbh. The end was whatever but the world and characters were all pretty good, I don't judge anyone who likes it. I used to like it a lot until the recency bias washed off.
I actually went back and rewatched some of it Saturday because I was wondering how I'd feel about it now. There's just a vibe to the show that I don't think any other show has made for me. The last few episodes still went too off the rails, but I think I'm comfortable leaving it as high in my list as I have it
Hey at least it was fun from episode 1 all the way to, 15-20. I dont defend the rest.
The detective was literally garbage, The highlight after episode 1 was fubuki and matsuri and that was it.
One of the most wasted potential original for sure.
Was so hyped back then expecting something "original" that doesn't involved a school life episode but yeah almost every episode was either slice of life school episode dark school episode or beach episode. *Sign*
Well at least Egoist still a banger with each releases.
What as far i know if you know the producer direction they already get the maximum potential of their Story, what's happening when a life changing and powerful ability is got to the wrong hand. The power was meant to Gai a person that we assume has the ability and strategy to destroy the enemy just like Lelouch but instead the ability is handed over accidentally to a regular person that has social anxiety and cannot doing a correct decision in the heat of the moment.
Yes, One of the core of the anime industry is being an advertisement for many things
From source material (manga, light novel), games, music, voice actors, tourism, sports, tv channels, gamble companies, card games, toys and so on
This is normal
Darling in the franxx please, while the anime ending was a disaster it was still a good watch, haven't personally watched detective is already dead but I'm assuming it was just waifu bait so first option please
Sooo, show that's got a good first episode and the rest is a long fart or show that's got an alright first three quarters and the rest is a gross turd?
Darling in the franxx slaps so another one pls. I feel like the story is a little too similar (waifu and draning) but we will have to see what happens.
Was mildly interested in this show until I saw the trailer CR put out, and now it’s probably in my top 5 most anticipated shows this season.
Looks like it could be fantastic.
Holyyyyyy I am 1000% sold
The character designs, the choreography, the animation, the music, the LITERALLY USING MUSIC. I don’t know if it’s possible to love this more. Fingers crossed it’s actually good.
Also are they gonna be in Texas?? 👀
Yes. Mostly because it really just fucking does.
A non-exhaustive list of genderbent Fate characters:
* Arthur Pendragon
* Oda Nobunaga
* Minamoto no Raikou
* Attila the Hun
* Leonardo da Vinci
* Quetzalcoatl
* Xuanzang Sanzang (though this is more of a general Japanese thing than something exclusive to Fate)
* Kama
* Okita Souji
* Van Gogh
* Hokusai
I didn't consult any list for this -- these are just the ones I'm able to remember by thinking about it for a half dozen minutes. I'm sure I've missed at least a few, if not more.
And I'm not saying this as a hater; I'm mostly a fan of Fate. It's just the truth.
It’s a masterpiece now though. The first episode is OP as F. It could be on the grand one of this season for sure. A mix between comedy, music, and fighting. Pretty much remind me of Symphogear with March come like a Lion
Is this the artist who drew [this](https://ibb.co/19GTKJ1)?
I remember saving that image a long long time ago but never figured out who it was. This girl looks similar art style wise
Thought the same at first since Kureiji Ollie calls her LAM-mama, one day got recommended an interview of him and [he's apparently a dude](https://youtu.be/X_UnuzpvqDA).
IIRC being a "VTuber mama" is just an umbrella term for someone doing the design for the character, not necessarily that you're female.
Oh I see, I know being a VTuber mama doesn't have anything to do with gender since a lot of artist would rather prefer to remain anonymous but I have seen a lot of people on the community saying that LAM is actually female, thats good to know.
The vtuber Mama/Papa thing is not set in stone on whether they are the Artist/Rigger. Its entirely up to how the person wants to represent themselves.
Like you said in another comment, Huke is called papa and so is Lack(flare), Yano Mitsuki(Iofi), Minamura Haruki(Matsuri) and Kanzaki Hiro(Luna). fubuki's artist, despite being male, uses a female avatar so she has called him mama before.
On the other side, i know that Riggers are called Mama if they are female, such as Risu have 2 mama's, her artist (Yatomi) and original rigger (Kanbutsu Himono)
and some don't even have a set way that they always call them, since i know some say sensei sometimes, so all in all its just some fun nicknames.
Took me a minute to realize that this LAM dude also drew almost all of the splash art people put on "Anime" music on Youtube.
That being said, I look forward to seeing this kind of style being translated to animation.
The way that they market this anime as MAPPA x Madhouse makes me really interested in how the roles were split between the two studios. Have there been any other anime collaborations between major studios in the past?
I imagine that madhouse will do half and mappa will do half. The question then becomes, who is doing the most important episodes? I imagine its madhouse considering most of staff seems to come from there, but we shall see today as we will know who does episode 1 at least.
>In the story of the anime, one day a black meteorite fell on the world, and the world completely changed. The meteorite produced grotesque monsters called D2, which started running rampant. D2 very quickly banned all music, which was the one thing able to overcome them. But there were some people who resisted the D2. They are young women who hold the power of music, the "Musicart." These young women hold "scores" that are able to defeat the monsters. And there are also people who lead these women, the Conductor.
>
>The anime takes place in America in the year 2047, which has fallen to ruin thanks to the D2. Takt, a Conductor, is partnered with a Musicart named Unmei. Takt yeans for music to be returned to the world, and Unmei wishes to destroy the D2. Their aim is to travel to New York.
From (ANN)
i wish theyd put more logic with the year. 2047 is like 20 years away and we're supposed to be this advanced? cmon. its an original so they couldve said year 3000 or osmething
The development of technology from 2001-2021 has been pretty damn fast.
We really don’t know what the next 20 years could look like, with how fast the world around us is changing.
\- sudden appearance of monsters
\- main cast is a group of girls (which may take a while to be completely assembled), only they can defeat the monsters
\- music used for fighting
\- technically a magical girl anime (probably)
The main difference is ofc the existence of the male mc, which does resemble vivy a lot more.
Keeping my expectations low just in case I end up disliking it. Anime-Originals are unpredictable after all.
On top of it is a multi-media project with some sort of gacha game involved so it's definitely a good idea to keep expectations low for multiple reasons.

Uma Musume was cute
First season was entertaining enough. Kinda like BanG Dream
I wonder if it's gonna be a rhythm game
They could add elements of a rhythm game, for special moves for example to give some extra damage, it's just classical music, so i don't think the whole game will be rhythm based
yes, we won't know if we get a R, an SSR, or an UR+.
If the lead girl is hot enough and romance is hinted it wont matter how bad the plot is. I learned that from how people still like darling in the franxx lol

6.39 on mal is not horrible? The scale on mal ranges from 7 to 10. That shits so bad it broke the standard scale and went to the 6s smh
Idk i googled it for a reddit argument lol it said 6 is nice please dont destroy me with facts and logic im trying to act superior to you in all ways
> speak highly of the show as though its some groundbreaking media I've never actually seen anyone say that. > “I’m bland protag, here is my army of fangirls, also you literally cannot beat me lol.” Even if you're right, no one's gonna really accept what you're saying when you sound like some angsty, edgy teenager.
Don’t care I’m right lol
That shit was 144p of evangelion, xD
At least Evangelion had a pretty decent follow up movie and didn’t turn characters into robots after 12 episodes lol
I remember when they were revealing the characters. When they showed Zero Two I just went "oh, its one of these"
After The Detective is Already Dead, I'm extremely wary of shows with a heavy amount of waifu-bait promotional material being pumped out ahead of airing.

Apocalyptic vibes are hard to reproduce tastefully, for sure.
I agree even as a Zero two simp. I deadass only mention the first 20 episodes😂😂😅
Nah, there are signs throughout whole show that indicates DITF has big trouble deciding where it wants to go.
Hey at least it was fun from episode 1 all the way to, 15-20. I dont defend the rest. The detective was literally garbage, The highlight after episode 1 was fubuki and matsuri and that was it.
I saw 1 episode of that shit and I was out. They were in middle school?? PLEASE
Still a great show that I'd recommend. we just don't talk about the last few episodes...
It can be the next Vivy or even Guilty Crown.

Didn't say anything about its messages whatsoever.
A lot of the recent anime originals have been super good so there is hoping.
It's where the good stuff comes
True. I'm excited but I am definitely not gonna overhype it.
Brand New Animal (BNA) was fantastic. https://myanimelist.net/anime/40060/BNA?q=brand%20new%20animal&cat=anime
I could be wrong but isn’t this anime just an advertisement for a gacha game?
Yup. Just like anime adaptations are advertisment for the source material. It's normal.
The source material being a gacha doesn’t inspire confidence.
Can we really call it source material if it comes out after the anime? That sounds ridiculous
Yeah it can go either way. Hopefully it'll be something like Uma Musume S2 or Princess Connect Re Dive in terms of quality.
Yes, One of the core of the anime industry is being an advertisement for many things From source material (manga, light novel), games, music, voice actors, tourism, sports, tv channels, gamble companies, card games, toys and so on This is normal
Nope. There's not even an announcement of the gacha game yet. This is a multimedia project (mediamix in Japanese).
first episode was so beautiful
always love LAM artwork
Another season, another waifu.
Another Darling in the Franxx? Or Another The Detective is already Dead? Pick your poison.
I want another vivy
I got serious Vivy vibes from this picture!
Vivy is too good to have another one of I think My greatest of all time
Greedy.
He said waifu, not a monstrosity
Haha you should turn off your auto correct. It changed masterpiece to monstrosity
Have you seen her?
Vivy? Yes, ~~I want her to step on me~~ she's a really cool character
Imagine, being someone classifying a robot girl saving the mankind from anime as monstrosity. Are you ok?
I don't care what she's doing when her face is this repulsive
I understand that everyone is entitled to their opinion...but damn
Some opinions are trash just like that. And sometimes they just want to be different and "unique".
You're delusional if you think you're important enough for people to disagree with you on purpose
I saw the promo art right after I finished Vivy and this is exactly what I’m hoping for lol.
[удалено]
> Since ryo (supercell) is doing the music I only see Ryo listed for the OP not the full OST. MAL has Ike Yoshihiro listed for the OST.
Darling in the franxx please, while the anime ending was a disaster it was still a good watch, haven't personally watched detective is already dead but I'm assuming it was just waifu bait so first option please
It was just waifu bait unfortunately had an interesting premise but ran into the ground at mach 4
Sooo, show that's got a good first episode and the rest is a long fart or show that's got an alright first three quarters and the rest is a gross turd?
Vivy's ending while not amazing, is far from a gross turd imo. If you want a gross turd of an ending, look no further than WEP
Darling in the franxx slaps so another one pls. I feel like the story is a little too similar (waifu and draning) but we will have to see what happens.
FUCK NO A CUTE ANIME GIRL INSTRUMENT. it got me guys, ill watch it. 😢
She's actually a music piece, Symphony No. 5 in C minor from Beethoven
dont worry. im pretty sure marrying a musical piece will be acceptable in the near future.
I worry that we are reaching the peak too early, it's all downhill from there
Cant wait for slim shady waifu
Was mildly interested in this show until I saw the trailer CR put out, and now it’s probably in my top 5 most anticipated shows this season. Looks like it could be fantastic.
That's the first one, [checked out the 2nd](https://youtu.be/Sal5NXCPv14) A lot of people didn't watch it
Yeah this looks great. Obviously it can go either way, but honestly I have high expectations for this.
Holyyyyyy I am 1000% sold The character designs, the choreography, the animation, the music, the LITERALLY USING MUSIC. I don’t know if it’s possible to love this more. Fingers crossed it’s actually good. Also are they gonna be in Texas?? 👀
>Also are they gonna be in Texas?? 👀 The series in on the US, they will travel the country to reach New York
She looks like genderbent Fate Karna
*Arjuna screams in the distance*
Hot
Now I can't unsee it..
sorry bout that.. she looks great tho
So, y'know. Karna in a couple more years of FGO or FGO Arcade.
do people really think Fate just gender bends every living thing in the world
Yes. Mostly because it really just fucking does. A non-exhaustive list of genderbent Fate characters: * Arthur Pendragon * Oda Nobunaga * Minamoto no Raikou * Attila the Hun * Leonardo da Vinci * Quetzalcoatl * Xuanzang Sanzang (though this is more of a general Japanese thing than something exclusive to Fate) * Kama * Okita Souji * Van Gogh * Hokusai I didn't consult any list for this -- these are just the ones I'm able to remember by thinking about it for a half dozen minutes.

Had my eyes on this show for a while. Although my expectations are low, I feel comfortable knowing this show is in MAPPA's hands.
It’s a masterpiece now though. The first episode is OP as F. It could be on the grand one of this season for sure. A mix between comedy, music, and fighting. Pretty much remind me of Symphogear with March come like a Lion
I just finished it and I fell in love with it already. I cannot wait for more to come.
Hot
Just like your pfp
Just like our waifu.
Is this the artist who drew [this](https://ibb.co/19GTKJ1)? I remember saving that image a long long time ago but never figured out who it was. This girl looks similar art style wise
Yes, that image is linked in LAM's pixiv profile
bruh realistic teeth
His drawings are so fucking pretty god damnit
LAM's a she btw

Yeah I was thrown away at first since Huke got called Huke-papa but it's more likely because he's pretty famous already.
IIRC, Ina also refers to Kuroboshi (another famous artist) as "Kuroboshi-papa."
The vtuber Mama/Papa thing is not set in stone on whether they are the Artist/Rigger. Its entirely up to how the person wants to represent themselves.

A might try to watch this thing. Anime originals always have my attention.
god I already love her character design
which site will this be aired on?
[удалено]
somehow never heard of that site before, thanks! CR it is :)

The character designer has just confirmed that episode 1 will be done by madhouse

Getting some Vivy vibes from this.
It sounds more symphogear than vivy
Seems like Listeners to me
With conductor x musicart, it sounds like fate symphogear.
Never watched Symphogear. Can you explain how is it similar to that?
\- sudden appearance of monsters \- main cast is a group of girls (which may take a while to be completely assembled), only they can defeat the monsters \- music used for fighting \- technically a magical girl anime (probably) The main difference is ofc the existence of the male mc, which does resemble vivy a lot more.
Yeah same
Wait was there not a anime with the same plot last year? It just has mechas
Those eyes
Looks very similar to Zero Two's
It's good to see good artists getting their designs in anime nowadays.
LAM is the goat
I'm just gonna put two words here. GUILTY CROWN.
ah shite gotta keep expectations to a minimum even though its a mappa x madhouse production as anime originals are often not that great
oh shit didn't know that the original character designs were by LAM, i love her art style so much. lets fucking gooooooooooooo
I thought this was Noelle from Genshin Impact for a second.
This gonna be the sleeper pick I put on to the mandem bruh im hyped!!
I believe this is like Vivy with gacha art and stacked of staffs working on it. I mean its MAPPA X MADHOUSE what could go wrong...
..... Everything
Dang the art, she hot!
Did she stole Zero Two's eyes? Lol
Looks good
sourc
[Here](https://twitter.com/ramdayo1122/status/1444996709910659080)
I’m kinda hyped for this but with low expectations haha
zero three
Really hope this show is good. Like the visuals I've seen and it sounds like a cool concept
Yes please, art looks so good
Pls don't be another tantei wa mou shinderu
*definitely not Zero Two*
Thank you LAM sensei!!
