Found myself liking this anime even though its only 2 episodes in so I thought I would recommend it.
Plot Summary: A gate appears in Tokyo's Ginza district sometime in the 21st century. From the gate pours out monsters, knights from middle-age Europe, and other fantasy-like beings, and they kill many of the citizens of Tokyo. This event is known as the Ginza Incident. The government sends a small group of soldiers from the Japanese Self-Defense Forces to the alternate world beyond the gate. Led by otaku soldier Yōji, they find that the villages in the world are being attacked by a dragon. An elf girl who is a survivor from the dragon's rampage joins the group in their travels across the dangerous new world.
Basically its a genre mash up of high fantasy and modern military where the two worlds collide, I recommend it based on what I have seen so far.

From what I've heard it seems like both the adaptations (anime and manga) are really poor. Also, you should probably be advised that the source material (LN) contains: -Gore and rape.
-Some exceptionally bad writing, especially in terms of politics.
Additionally, the writer is apparently an ultra nationalist hellbent on promoting the nationalist agenda. |

I'm meaning to watch this since its release, but time management isn't cooperating.

I didn't know this thread existed.
This anime is extremely great if you're an anime fan. The use of tropes is fantastic, but you'd likely miss out on those if you don't watch much anime. Regardless the setting and cast are fresh, which is rather nice.
