Pretty cool & interesting at the same time and I do understand the fans's reservations on this as normally , making a drama special from an anime if not manga is really tricky/tough .
But it definitely will reflect well on DAIGO's resume , yes ? Maybe this means Nonuna Survivor might be used to promote this drama special for Cardfight Vanguard ? x)
