| Well, that picture on the website screams BL to me. |
 |
| Is it also about karuta like Chihayafuru? =O |

Bakuman, Honey and clover, Nodame Cantabile... and others that I haven't watched. Can't wait to see if it's worth following after the first few episodes :D |

With how feminine guys typically look in this BL stuff I couldn't tell. It looks like typical BL art so thats why I figured it was a guy. |
|
| Could be good. |
 |
| I'm already in love with the PV. But what is this about? Neither the anime or the manga are registered on MAL database, what the heck. |
  |
| Looks extremely promising...can't wait to try it out. :) |
| Why is neither the manga nor the anime in the DB? The staff looks awesome, but I kinda want to know a bit more about the plot and setting. Kanade from Chihayafuru would probably love it though *gg*. Having high hopes myself with that staff and a theme that has potential. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| Could be nice, though the words "unique interpretation" worry me. And I don't even know the source material. |
| Loved the PV looking forward to it so beautiful |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| This looks like it could be good. This excites me. |
| A DFC MC? Will watch. |
 |
| Will never be as good as Chihayafuru :/ |

| It looks good.. |
 |
| The historical bit makes it more interesting. |
| Hmmmmm..... gay or not, doesn't matter, going to watch it anyways =) |
| if the beautiful art on the preview is any indication, i'll be checking this out - truly stunning colors/line-work...not sure where the whole BL thing is coming from in the above comments - looked like a man and woman in the pv on youtube, and even if that's the slant, so what? |

| Not sure if yaoi, or shoujo e____e |
Higashi_no_Kaze said: My thoughts exactly.Kanade from Chihayafuru would probably love it though *gg*. Definitely watching. |
 |
| Will watch! |
| I haven't seen Chihayafuru yet, so I don't know is it show for me, but it may be interesting. |
  |
| i'm always in for romance so i' ll wait and see |
| " "Utakoi." is a historical romance story " I want it ♥___♥ |
 |
| Series Composition: Kimi ni Todoke Welp. Count me in~ |
 |
| I'm glad it isn't BL, looks great! I miss historical japanese anime (no no, sengoku parody stuff doesn't count)! But I wonder if the art will be the same as the pv 2 :S |

| Hyakunin Isshu me: CHIHAYAFURU!!! jkjk. There's probably no relation to that series except for the hundred poems. :( The website picture looks likes two guys, BUT if you watch the PV then you realize one's a girl (I think). I will watch because I fell in love with the PV music on the first note. XD |
| The illustration looks good, at least. |
| So excited! I love Josei. And apparently fans of Chihayafuru will like this, or so I've heard. |
| Hmm. Staff seems cool enough. |
| Sugita Kei create Harukanaru Toki no naka de 3, 4 and Sengoku Basara's videos in niconico douga (ニコニコ動画). "キスをしながら唾を吐け【遙か３】", "２５才【遙か３】", "幸せについて八葉が本気出して考えてみた【遙か４】", "【グループ魂】パンチラオブジョイトイ【戦国BASARA】", "【モンゴル800】DON'T WORRY BE HAPPY【戦国BASARA】", "戦国バッテリー【BASARA】"... I love these works! I never thought Sugita Kei become mangaka. I look forward to this series! |

| I find it ironic that this comes after Chihayafuru o.o Karuta and all o.o Anyway. Historical + josei = will watch. Although I was extremely disappointed with Genji Monogatari Sennenki... we'll see. |
| The PV looks gorgeous. |
 |
| After watching Chihayafuru I became very interested in the 100 poets, so this to me looks like paradise. |
| What am I lookin' at? I don't even know what I'm lookin' at. Director of Major? I predict a Solkiskeygasm. Detective said: LOOOOOLLOOKS PRETTY GAY |

     |
| A must watch for me |
| In the absence of my Chihayafuru fix, I'll watch this. |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
