Is this the first show trying the "first person" thing?
I'm guessing it'll be CG heavy

Pillow boys? Why is the only thing I can think of, is a series about a bunch of guys humping body pillows with anime characters on them?

I will check it out after my even after disappointment with Rainy Cocoa cause 1 minute is just too short. -__-

Please please please let it be 12epi x 23min or at the least 12epi x 10min.

This reminds me of the sound track of Ishida Akira counting sheep. Literally just Ishida counting to 200. I felt so sorry for him.

Well if it is, It's not working. Not a fan of male fanservice. I may give it a chance if it's a 20 minutes thing.

Something like free seems more worthy to watch then this.

I love how people are judging a show before it even airs, even more so that it's an original show and you have no idea what it'll be about.

The series will be about 12 "pillow boys" (makura no danshi) with a diverse range of personalities. They all reside in a town, and each individual pillow boy will star in his own episode on a weekly basis. It was also revealed that the series will take on a first-person perspective to detail their story in a smooth and elegant way.

There.

I'm amazed that only one person in this thread remembers that Japan already got us a miracle called Sleeping with Hinako (with a sequel, nonetheless). That's nothing new.

This honestly seems pretty weird but I'm curious enough to give it a try. I'm a fan of male fanservice, but if its done bad its cringe-worthy so err I hope this one isn't that bad.

Is it like those phone apps sleepy time boyfriend or s/t???

It should be, main concept for the anime is 添い寝 (sleeping together).
Weird how most here think about the pillows? Never crossed my mind.

The premise itself does nothing to me. Like, barely an afterthought. The First Person perspective though, that I'm curious about.

This is actually what I first thought of when I read the premise and saw the picture. Since they're going for that "elegant" feel I think it would be weird to see the boys literally pillows (unless they're magical pillows that could transform into people!? O.o). "WTF is a pillow boy?" is right lol.

Seriously though, gonna watch it anyway. That first-person perspective would be interesting at the very least.

Does anyone know if this is gonna be a short anime or a Full lenght anime? I think the latter.

One thing I wonder: is this just about the 'pillows' or have human pendants (owners)?
