| So it's a new style of animation? Innovation is always nice to see. And I like their character designer choice. |

| Motion picture? Eh, not a fan of the style but we'll see. |

 |
| Will see how this turns out, but 60 minutes per episode? That's lengthy.. |

| Curious to see how this goes. |
| It's good to see something new. MMD anime are cute, perhaps I'll give this anime a try. |
 |
| So is this going to be like super rotoscoped but in anime form? |

So Ishidate Koutarou would be the correct one I'm pretty sure it's him : http://myanimelist.net/people/20613/Koutarou_Ishidate |

I know there's a katakana "Ko-" in the middle. 石ダテコー太郎 There's only one "kou", not two. It's just a different way to write his real name 石館, 光太郎 that he's using. So Ishidate Koutarou indeed. Interesting concept. I wonder if this will lead to a new trend in anime or if this will just disapear without any follow up. |

| Since Aku no Hana was so CRAZY SUCCESSFUL, they decided "let's step it up a bit shall we?" this will flop |

 |
| Isn't Tesagure a better comparison than Aku no Hana? |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| "This anime was drawn before a live studio audience" |
| I'll probably watch the first episode just to check, how it goes. |

| Live broadcast + mo-cap? Does that mean they'll be acting live and rendering in real time? |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| The world is not ready for rotoscoped lolis. |
 |
| Not a fan of the character designs, but I guess this is somewhat original. I'll at least give it a shot. |
Hoppy said: The world is not ready for rotoscoped lolis. Mo-cap not rotoscoped. I suspect this will not appeal to western audiences as it will be like one of those random idol tv shows where they just burble on. Still .. it's an interesting idea. |

| motion picture loli style, will pass |
