The new Shikizakura trailer has arrived, and it’s heartwarmingly enjoyable! While it’s obviously just a 40-second teaser, it’s enough to get me excited, when the first trailer did nothing for me. But, why not? This time around, we’re introduced to more characters, and we see them actually interact with one another. If nothing more, it gives us insight into the more light-hearted side of things, which is something I truly appreciate. I mean, the action might be great, but we need to care for the characters, don’t we? Thus, it’s a good glimpse into Sublimation’s upcoming anime! However, it’s the reveal of the ending theme song that’s the cherry on top. So make sure you give it a listen, in the new Shikizakura trailer, found below!
