yeah my first reaction was "that kinda looks like plastic memories... don't need another show like that". Maybe they'll prove me wrong
From what I heard it's a bunch of episodic stories and that MC has no emotions and she only writes them down in letters. It's nothing like plastic memories.
You people see a robot girl and automatically think Plastic Memories? Whats wrong with you all?

I need to rewatch it again soon i think
Can confirm, Redline is great, exciting, and is one of the best looking anime ever made.
it was more about what they said than her being a robot girl.
To explain it a bit more, when I saw it I basicly thought it's plastic memories from a setting pov but instead of looking at it from the MC + maingirl (whatever Tenchan was called again) pov, getting those robots back to make sure they don't go rampant etc, they're essentially doing the same but instead you're getting the pov of one of those caretakers who's living with someone. Or at least that's what I imagined it to be after watching the pv
Well let's walk through shury's thoughs--- 1. Read trailer title as Violet Evangelion 2. Watch trailer 3. Wait this doesn't look like Evangelion at all, there arn't any giant aliens or anything 4. Ohhh it's Violet Evergarden, f me for being dyslexic-ish 5. Hmm... An auto memories doll designed to help customers 6. A show called plastic memories where they sell a service to customers with robot things 7. Wonder about confirmation bias on whether a show will be good based on your expectations. If you have low expectations but it's good won't you be pleasantly surprised? But if you expect it to be bad then maybe it will become bad for you. Then if you expect the show to be good won't it become better based on your anticipation? Or would you become let down? It's kinda like a placebo thing. 8. They say you can't judge a book by its cover. Can you judge an anime by its trailer? 9. Elsie from twgok makes cute firetruck noises. < Very Relevant
Pretty sceptical about sakurada reset because this guy is working on it. On the bright side it's going to be 2 cour so it should cover all the LN's

I've read a couple of chapters a while back. The art was great and the plot seems fun but the fanservice is ultra creepy because most characters look like they're 10 years old.
Masamune-kun: don't know if anyone else is still watching this but it's been a fun anime so far. Sure, the MCs are kinda rough and it can be off-putting but I like the way their relationship has been developing. + Show Spoiler +
I also find it kinda funny how Adagaki never realized or hasn't noticed that Masamune is Pig's foot and that the new kid is just that, a stranger. Like, she never questioned why his nickname was Masamune even though his name is totally different? Seems odd no?

Not bad, we'll see how it actually is when it starts airing.
Its being made by KyoAni, I think. They are pretty much the best in the business when it comes to consistently good animation and art, so its fair to assume whatever this robogrill anime is, it'll at least look great.
fair point. I dunno if I was the only one who saw it but I think there was a slight skipping here and there in the trailer. Should watch it again to confirm lol.

on a more serious note. I really can't see how this could possible end in a satisfying way. While I did enjoy it to some degree I'm really prepared for the worst as far as endings goes.

That's something positive? Most people here seem to be excited about it though so I will probably check it out.

Maybe because it's that forgettable?... I think I might check it out. I think the only really entertaining episode was the one with the guy who threw everything into chaos (like plane crashs etc.). The city was interesting though, I think the show somehow wasted a lot of its potential.

I don't think it was forgettable at all to be honest, i just didn't see it while skimming over upcoming shows. I thought the show was a whole lot of fun and outside of the ending/final arc(not just because of the delay) i loved the show.

Masamune maybe get close to Adagaki and save their play or something (kiss?) but nothing further
to close the anime off. Not much time to do anything else. Wonder if we'll get a second season.

ah I see, how faithful is the anime to the manga? Considering potentially picking it up, even though the ending seems somewhat obvious (I can kinda guess how it's heading lol).

yeah I'd assume so. The thing that bothers me is that I thought + Show Spoiler +
at least once they showed that there's a misunderstanding one way between Agaki and Masamune, that this just has to be both ways. She thinks he suddenly left her for no reason and that's why she hates men. He thinks that it was her who crushed his heart when in reality it was Yoshino iirc? That's got to be a two-way misunderstanding one way or another. I mean she clearly liked him in the past and still likes the past him and thinks fondly of him when he was chubby.
So that's what I want to see but there's no way they'll get anywhere on that front

wait, what? Bolded, did they show Yoshino crushing it? When? All I remember is Adagaki calling him Pig's foot and saying that she'll never grow to like him. Obviously, he up and left then. Weird that she doesn't remember this.
Well that is what happened lol but that was a late reveal in the manga....I don't remember it being in the anime (though I haven't watched the last 2 episodes).
^ you just got lucky and somehow guessed right Either way, I'll have to go back and see if I can find anything on it. Replaying those scenes again and see if it was hinted at.
