All these badass fanart are giving me unrealistic expectations for the upcoming anime. Yes, I'll most likely be a SoL show peppered with bits of battle fanservice, but somehow I am hoping for awesome non-stop sequences featuring moments like this instead.

So, basically a giant robot vs kaiju show.

I bet those freighters' crews are wishing they were some else...
Wait I just realize the tag for the shinkaisei is Re-class, so where is she? And before you point at the tail, I am refering to her humanoid body

Same here. Except that I want to have dramatical dark stories based on the ship girls' fate and all. Like somewhat beginning with an intro and some everyday life and easy fights to make us feel at ease with the shipgirls, then slowly(or suddenly) starting to remind us of the war, by starting to sink some, have some epic battles/sacrifices, traumatic memories, and lots of feels. Like some artists depict the girls sometimes. Even more, go through a more complex plot by showing us the Shinkaisei-kan's side too, to make us realize that there is no "bad side" in war(something like that), that they fight also for a good reason etc.

Buuuut we all know the probability of simple SoL is high. Let's just hope we're wrong.
