| How much does this match Gen's favorite cliches? Innocent character suffering, existential villains, grimdark, lesbian fanservice? In any case, it's interesting that it got an adaptation after 10+ years. |

If you enjoyed the time you wasted, then its not a waste of time.  |
| All I needee to see was my favorite Japanese animation writer The Urobutcher....I'm hyped af |
| God the male mc? looks like Gudao. The other characters look alright though, seems like Takeuchi is actually capable of good character design if he wants to. |

And his magnum opus as a writer for VN still hasn't even got an OVA. |

| Great news! It looks gorgeous! Feels like I watch Fate with dragons! Takeuchi designs and Kajiura awesome music are a sure win! |
 |
| Now, this is some hype stuff. Kajiura and Mizushima also on this. |
| Never heard of this Urobuchi thing. Seems interesting. Will look forward to it. |
| It's from Gen Urobuchi, so should be a good watch. |
 |
| A-1, Gen Urobuchi, Yuki Kajiura. Hmm, interesting. |
 |
| Looks beautiful... I will be watching. |
 |
| The visual looks appealing |
| Hisone to Maso-tan but less moe and more suffering. |
 |
| This needs a game badly, I for one would love a fantasy Air Strike Patrol or Ace Combat where you can fight dragons in modern aircraft. |

|
| So dragon and airplanes... Intriguing |
| I don't know why but when I saw the words "dragon desing" on screen watching the reveal I burst out in laughter. The movie has a lot of cool names attached to it. The male main character looks the same as any other male character desinged by Takashi Takeuchi, which is to be expected because all of his desings have the same four faces anyway. If only the male main character didn't have the same haircut as any of the other Type-Moon male mc's. Anyway really looking forward to this. |
| Yuki and Gen. Hopefully it’s more Fate/Zero and less Aldnoah.Zero. |
