I was already interested in this series, but that trailer sold me on it even more. Made me think that Mappa or Kyoani was doing the adaptation before I looked it up and saw that it's not. On one hand, I am cautious about much I'll like this series (romance series that get popular with a mainstream male audience makes me wonder how good it'll be, since I don't trust that audience's judgement), but I'm still going to check it out. Hopefully it's worth it. The premise and characters look cute.

@IzayoiSk It's the same case as with the Blue Box, one week delay for the rest of the world.

Netflix just dead set on single handedly restoring the fan-sub scene.

I'm kind of conflicted about this adaptation. On one hand, it looks absolutely gorgeous. On the other hand, I didn't enjoy the source manga as much as most people did: I found it a bit predictable and melodramatic. Still, I might give the anime a try just to see if I somehow read the manga wrong; maybe the anime will inspire in me the same feeling that the manga did for all of you guys.

How much potential does this anime have? I want to hype it but I don't know anything about it other than the manga is already incredibly popular.

It's an anime produced by Aniplex and it's not on Crunchyroll but under the netflix jail ?

PEAK CINEMA is here. Never thought I’d say that about a romance series.
