This is a blood-pumping, flesh-pounding (physically) violent yuri story where the girls' determination, blood splatters, and karate explode.

The Tokushima Shimbun was an important news organization for the town. They would carry laser printers to Higashi Park and the mountaintop to print tons of extra editions, and they would report the results of the anime awards on their front page. Their staff may have been temporarily depleted due to organizational changes, but they were the most understanding news organization I've ever seen. https://t.co/R2qzw8nr4b pic.twitter.com/rSKG9MHHk1

At Machi Asobi events, there's a debate about whether it's appropriate for people who aren't fans of the work to fill the front rows. But if you consider the event as a promotion for the work, then 'getting a large number of people who wouldn't have been interested in the work to listen to an hour-long promotion' is a great success, isn't it? Especially since it's a free event.
