Damn, that is one bad ass mother fucker!

I'm hesitant to get hype because the writer is Inoue.
But that design is pretty cool.

Didn't Inoue write for W? Not sure how that's a bad thing but to each his own I guess.

He writes for a lot, and he's done a lot of good work (But he didn't work on Double, from what I'm reading), but he just has certain style of writing that makes the characters seem needlessly cruel and quiet just to hammer the conflict in.

Oh... okay. :D

Ahhhh. So this is that project they Amamiya and Inoue were rumored to be doing together.

Kind of excited on this.
Jetman, Hakaider, Sword Gai, and now this.
It has been a while to see the two working on the same project again.

The tag-team partnership with Amemiya may be what saves Inoue from falling into some of his worst writing tropes, like recycling plots wholesale from Agito or everything about Nobunaga's Desire. I've got to hear more about the plot, but definitely leaning more towards excited than concerned.

I hope that will be the case. I'm loving the design enough to peak my interest.

I finished watching KR Faiz recently, it has good stuff but also annoying writing at some points (but overall, I like it). Surprisingly, I didn't mind the writing in Agito, as it get similarities.
After what I also read from Kiba, I hope Inoue is done with all the "people just can't understand each other" and "here's a plot hole deal with it LoL".

Jetman felt very different, I wonder if meanwhile something happened to Inoue to have him obsessed with those themes...

As I'm fairly new to the Japanese side of this genre, basically none of that cast means anything to me and I kinda mehed at how generic the premise was. But dat suit.

Huh. Totally missed this yesterday.

Amemiya, yay. Inoue, boo. I have no clear idea what to think about all of this, but if it gets subbed I'll give it a shot. Inoue has been capable of great work in the past and Amemiya always brings the awesome.

Looks like what I would think Hibiki's big bad would look like

This doesn't sound that good on paper. We have the most boring Makai Knight, that lame Pink Buster, and Inoue Toshiki, who lost his mind after Agito.

Still, it's something new. Might give it a try. What's the target age demographic on this one? I'll be far more interested if it's aimed at an older audience.
