I’ve heard so much hype about this show. I can’t say that I’m a fan of its artstyle, but now I’ll have a chance to see it properly. Maybe Greenfield will make a rare return to direct the dub?

Q. I recently noticed that Den-noh Coil isn’t streaming anywhere yet? Is that going to happen? I bought the Blu-rays for myself, but I’m having a hard time convincing other people to blind buy it.

A. You should be a good friend and let them borrow it :wink: j/k. Um, since Den-noh-coil is a Maiden Japan title, we’re not technically in charge of distributing it to streaming. That’s not to say it will NEVER be streamed, so keep watching Section 23 news for updates.

I really wish the show had gone with a more traditional art style. Nothing Maiden Japan can do about that ofc.

That said, I’m not sure that this cover art really shows off the They Live/Persona 5 scifi premise of the show?
