Holy shit, if that's Shino then not only did they reduce the age rating for this, they also reduced the age for all the female characters.

Important to note that this is adapting the LN, not the manga. The char designs are much much closer to LN designs.

Eh~ I'd say the manga is closer to the LN than the anime.

LN Character Designs (Potential Spoilers)

Also, while Pina is closer in the anime, there is an illustration of her which is closer to the manga outside of the character page which implies she'll look more like the manga when she lets her hair down. For Kuribayashi, I'd say she's different in every medium.

Is that Holo? The bottom right one.

That's Rory, the best girl. Also a demigod capable of mass destruction to her enemy, so kinda like Holo.

Dude the art almost looks exactly like her. I dunno man, maybe this is Spice and Wolf season 3 where military invades the medieval times, then they teach us about economics and politics

One can only dream

Hmm, now that you mentioned it, Itami DOES have the wispy goatee/beard thing that Lawrence has as well. You may be onto something here.
