Having reusable cool looking transformation and attack sequences is nothing new, but having the main character’s face constantly covered by hair so they mostly don’t have to animate her eyes and mouth is a new one on me.
Yeah, not even Violinist of Hameln pulled that one. (They did have one character who wore a half-face mask all the time so that they could get away with not animating her lip movements as even a simple flap, and I think I remember several conversations where the speaker was deliberately shot from behind.)
Of course, there’s no way Zenshu has VoH’s extreme budgetary constraints, where they literally had to make 1 ep’s worth of funding cover 2 eps of footage.
