Is it happening? Is PA Works finally going to redeem themselves?

>>Yuuki Yuuna's character designer
The character designs were nothing special.
>>Chaika's director
Season 2 was shit.
Not looking promising so far.
>>153716278
The characters have been revealed so we don't really have to speculate about the character designs, I guess.
Looks good though, might have a Shirobako vibe.
>>153716195
Redeem themselves from what? If this is even half as good as Shirobako it's already a win in my book.
>>153716411
>from what?
Charlotte, Glasslip, Haruchika, pretty much everything PA Works has attempted since Shirobako.
>>153716411
Did you watch anything they made since Shirobako?
Shirobako clone because they are too scared to flop again if they try to do something fresh.
>>153716726
that show was a fucking train wreck

Shirobako feels recent enough for me to still give them credit.
Also Kuromukuro was alright and Uchouten Kazoku S2 is just around the corner.

You're not kidding. The PV literally even starts by reminding you that they're the studio that did HanaIro and Shirobako

Kuromukuro was fun. Could've been better, but definitely was no Glasslip.
>Ayaka Nanase as Yoshino Koharu, the main character. She hates the provincial life, and longs to be in the city. Seeking to become something "special," she once went to Tokyo, but couldn't find what she wanted to do. 30 companies have her turned her down while job hunting, and by coincidence, she is hired to be the "monarch" of a micro-nation, and heads to the town of Manoyama. She easily befriends everyone, but is actually a very serious person. While a very normal girl, she has a complex about how "normal" she is.
>Reina Ueda as Shiori Shinomiya, an employee of the Manoyama tourism bureau and works together with Yoshino. She loves her hometown, and is very conservative. She prefers order in her life. She has a bright, optimistic personality, and won't hesitate to help anyone. Her housework abilities are high.
Hanasaku Iroha is still the best PA work.
>Chika Anzai as Maki Midorikawa. Her dreams of being an actress were crushed, and she headed back to her hometown of Manoyama. She is used to taking a lot of part-time jobs during her time as part of a small theater troupe. She is cool and has a big-sisterly attitude.
>Chiemi Tanaka as Ririko Oribe, a girl who hates the provincial Manoyama, but doesn't have the courage to strike out. Since graduating high school, she hasn't been able to find a proper job, and has resorted to locking herself up in her house and surfing the net every day. She becomes anxious towards strangers, and her only friend is Shiori Shinomiya.
Hurr hurr country grills hate the country

>Is PA Works finally going to redeem themselves?
They will, with pic related.
>Mikako Komatsu as Sanae KĊzuki, a woman who made the move to the countryside half a year before Yoshino, and is very conscious about appearing interesting to other people. She was born and raised in Tokyo, and got a job at an I.T. company after graduating college, but eventually quit. She longed for a healthy lifestyle of conservation and sustainability, and began renting an old Japanese-style house and does web design for a living.

I don't even care, if PA Works did nothing but anime originals about office ladies forever I'd be happy.
>>153716928
I think it's clear who best girl is already.
