    Every single new thing that comes out about this raises my expectations far higher than I thought possible on this. This looks fantastic.

      Ditto. I am still trying really hard to temper my expectations, especially given the piss poor track record when it comes to other live-action anime adaptations... but IMO all the promotional material Netflix has put out so far has been great, so it's getting harder and harder to do that. Here's hoping we don't end up massively disappointed. :P

    The trailers keep getting better. I'm happy to see that the actual show won't be a highly stylized attempt to mimic (what they think is...) anime visual language. The anime itself isn't stylized like the opening anyway, and I was concerned that they would overuse the split screen gimmick.

    I'm also happy to see Faye showing some skin. No, I'm not a pig: effervescent eroticism is essential for the psychological makeup of the character. I won't reiterate my criticisms, I'd be just repeating myself at this point. Hope it turns out great. But if you haven't watched the anime, I advise you to only do so after this series. Any comparison to what many consider the best anime series ever is likely to detract from the experience.

    The trailer looks so much better than the last teaser. I still will hold my opinion until i see the first episodes knowing Netflix bad record of anime adaptations.
