If this ends up being more on the comedy/parody side of things like with Zombie Land Saga, I just might watch this

It's basically sing movie plot with all boys cast. While plot itself is interesting, those young male character design and original tag tells me it just not gone work.

This looks like it will fit neatly into the middle of the Venn diagram of “anime I tend to like” and “anime that I know is kinda trash”

Adding to my list!

Why does this sound like it could be amazing? It could be like Wake Up Girls mixed with the daily struggles of old men. I'm excited to watch this.

LMFAO?? i feel like this is those *random idea* "someone's probably gonna make that a reality" kinda moment. probably gonna appeal to a certain audience tho, especially with the character types. we have cool emotionless ossan, energetic shota(ish) ossan, ikemen ossan, etc

honestly still pretty strange to me but ill prob watch it lol, hope it'll be good

It's kinda like Ryman's club but an idol group for this one.

It's a pretty unique story line, I'm curious about how it'll turn out, so looking forward to this.

That's exceptionally dry character design, and hardly a compelling premise. Skip.
Well I for one already loved Lain.

This feels like Uramichi Onisan with idols (though a more positive example).

I hope it's a fun show.
