I just watch this and man, I don't know where to start. I already know that they will make it into a darker tone magical girl theme (Shinbo is the director of Bakemono and Gen Urobuchi is the writer of Saya no Uta) but they managed to create quite a combination of magical girl and grimdark. Not much to say since it's only the first episode.

The promotional picture and PV is kinda misleading though. It's completely in different style than what people will expect if they don't know who's the director/scriptwriter is. Google Saya no Uta or Bakemonogatari before you are planning to watch this series.

    I just finished watching episode 2 and I can be certain that this series will be a good one. The magical girl stuff indeed makes me cringe a lot but the rest is good. The story is good, the character is good, the artstyle is good. Certainly in my watch list.

    Ended it, FUCKING AMAZING. Yeah, I said it. I didn't like it at first but as the episodes progressed it really became something else. It was confusing at times but in the end it was fantastic. Really enjoyed this one, a must see!
