A spin-off anime of Wake Up, Girls!, titled Wake Up, Girl Zoo!, has been announced. The title is a pun on the original title, with the plural "Girls (ガールズ)" changed into "Girl Zoo (がーる ZOO)."

I don't even know what to say to this.

Edit: Okay they're only dressed as animals.

Oh my, the main series wasn't enough to save anime? Thank you, based Yutaka.

That's a clever pun.

I was expecting the next WUG announcement to be a second season, but this looks amusing.

What the hell? I thought that WUG didn't have good reputation :o
I'm looking forward tho I don't think this will be as good as the original anime.

It looks like Yamakan raided Nina Ichihara's closet and grabbed kigurumi of predators. Idolm@ster needs to step it up, Yamakan is trying to outstage one of your idols and doing a good job at it.

And I most certainly hope this is the case.

Would be nice to have some more of WUG.

They should have just made this as the TV series and the idol crap as a spin off.
