My Thoughts
The Quintessential Quintuplets is being made by Shaft Studios?! What? Never in my wildest dreams did I expect to see this combo. Man, this special episode has some series budget, they got a really good director and the studio is amazing too. Curious to see how Shaft adds their signature weirdness to this anime. You know cause one thing I love about Shaft is that you cannot imagine their works without Shaft’s signature exaggeration.
I think this special might be quite a bit different from what we usually expect from The Quintessential Quintuplets as Shaft is involved this time. I usually don’t cover specials but this one looks very interesting. So yeah, I am quite a bit excited about it thanks to Shaft and Miyamoto.
Conclusion
