The staff looks good to be fairly honest (good director and good script writer) although I'm not expecting too much, considering I was told that it isn't anything special. But I am interested in this anyways.

The studio doesn't matter much although I'm more worried in terms of production wise, considering I'm not expecting much, but I want to be entertained at least.

The director of NHK also worked on a previous 8bit show last year, except that show was a SoL series if anything.

Btw just finished watching the PV.

I don't think it looks anything amazing but it looks good enough some way. I do expect even though it isn't anything impressive it can stay consistent with production, so I can be entertained.

The white haired character is probably the thing that sold me, not only that the mech designs do not look that bad either nor it moves bad. I think it was alright.

I'm always down for 'reincarnated/transported in another world' anime, but....8bit? I'm not sure...

Hmm can understand since the last mecha show they had ended up being a failure more so on the story (well more so blame the staff due to horrible thinking... I mean, to say the least the staff here looks rather assuring at least).

Plus the director worked on a previous 8bit show (Shounen Maid) which was both good production wise, and story wise. But yeah do get what you mean... and since they aren't doing collab this time (they did Evol which was with another studio)

No a trap!!!

Well jokes aside just call him a bishounene and that's that.

On topic the character designs look good enough but i hope he mecha battles are done well. The movement looks a bit lagging in the PV tbh.

Why is there an apostrophe in the title? I hope it has a significant meaning, and not a Jap mistake.

Description of the plot is similar to the mecha-fantasy version of Youjo Senki. But I was embarrassed by the main character, is it exactly a guy?

Actually this ''reincarnated to other world'' series became populer after the SAO, Log Horison, Overlord etc. I read around 50 mangas and 25 manhwas abouth this tag.

For mangas they always ended-dropped-on holded after 25th chapter. But this one ended after released 15th chapter. Thus they didnt upgrade 1-2 months new chapters.

Manga was pretty good.
MC guy a Robot-Mecha maniac and Otaku with his own pace(he dont disturbs anyone).
After dyed he reincarnated another world and noble family's son. He have his own memories from past life. Started learning stuffs, learning magic then he started imperial knight academy.

Youjo Senki have more Seinen things. This manga is just vanilla hentai compared Youjo Senki.

Note:
I personally waiting get anime for this Reincarnated mangas;
1:Death March kara Hajimaru Isekai Kyousoukyoku
2:Re:Monster
3:Doulou Dalu
4:Tales of Demons and Gods
5:Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari

etc.etc...

Yes, it is actually a guy.

Surprisingly, Rie already for the second time will play a similar feminine boy MC.

@Hakan_Scifi It's not even that it's Isekai. I again see a story about a reincarnating man with a strong analytical mind that uses it for career growth in his new life.

Director of NHK and Shounen Maid + Trap MC = Instant watch.
It's not going to be good, obviously. But even I have to give into my shallow urges every now and then.

It's been ages since we last got an anime centering around a trap.

Jeez everyone just focused on the

No a trap!!! part

And nobody even bothered with

Well JOKES aside just call him a BISHOUNEN and that's that.

Also being quite young is a factor.

Also generic posters with their so called generic posts, can i ask how many Generic LNs are there in which MC was actually a productive member of the society and actually use his/her head after reincarnation instead of initially being a useless NEET who got some convenient super powers after reincarnation? Not many comes to mind since 95% of those fall in latter category.

There are also very few LNs about actual mecha instead of bikini with some armor parts so that's another not-so-generic point. Also the MC doesn't go around acting girly in front of boys so there is that.

This one is surely better than Gundam IBO (which are bad show IMO). The animation are very neat cuz 8-bit kicks in.

I will watch this FTW. This will be refreshing after IBO gave me bad taste in my mouth.

I might be excited. I don't know why 8bit has such a bad reputation but I seem to have watched a lot of their productions.
