| Yes yes YES @TheBlockernator look this:D |
 |
| You mean fat-sized elf. And while we at it anyway, in which galaxy does the "Yaserarenai" word translate as plus/fat-sized ... |
 |
| We don't need such adaptations. |
 |
| That is a revealing picture! I don't even need to read the article. - It reveals to me that I have to give this anime a wide berth. |

| Yeah this is gonna be kino. am excited |
 |
| Look like peak fiction. Must watch ! |
| As a manga reader, I know that this is a fairly harmless piece of work even by Western standards. But the topic will clearly give us another hot threads on Twitter, for sure. |
 |
| Not plus sized enough. |
| HACKs! 🤢🤮 |

I know outside of anime yes, but in anime, Ayasa has never work outside of Bushiroad before. I know she worked in KR last year and solo work as well, so sooner than later, she will get moving on from that company and work on her own.
| @28012001 I'm not sure what you mean, she and Aimi have been doing shows outside of Bushiroad and Bandori for a few years now. Aimi even managed to appear in the borderline hentai harem. |

| So how much and what type of ecchi are we expecting here? |

| @Absurdo_N Awesome! I genuinely never thought it'd happen. My all time favorite manga finally gets it's own anime. |

| @Tropisch The manga has a fair bit of nudity so if it's 1:1, it'll probably have a decent amount |
| My waifu is the most wonderful waifu. Mai Valentine. |
| So, it's an ecchi, which everyone has noticed, and it's also a haremnick. An ecchi-haremnick about girls from another world who, for some reason, have come to the human world, gained weight and are trying to lose weight. It will be silly and hot at the same time, the anime will go to all lovers of big boobs and lovers of good food. |
 |
| Well, there are some BIG reasons to watch this, but I'm dying with this title lol. |

| @TheBlockernator I checked again, manga resources consider this to be Borderline hentai, so maybe it's going to continue the trend of gushing over MG and magical slave this year. |

@RobertBobert I know Aimi did it for more than a decade, I never thought Ayasa even played a major character like the former, until last year.
| @28012001 She had a protagonist in the all-female sports show "Mou Ippon!" last year. And given that the show wasn't marketed as a waifu bait or CGDCT, I think it could easily be considered a "free role". But wait and see. It took Inori Minase 3 to 5 years to finally move beyond CGDCT in her time. |

| @RobertBobert Honestly, i never really considered this borderline hentai. Most of the nudity is from when they go to hot springs and bathhouses. (Though to be fair, they show everything but the genitalia) |

| @TheBlockernator Perhaps some vulgar context, fanservice or jokes also play a role. Like in KissSiss, where you also have not so much of "real" nudity. |
|
| I'm not sure why we deserve this |
| This has an oppai loli, you don't see that often in anime (or even Vtubing for the matter, Anya Melfissa and Henya are the only bigtime oppai lolis I can think of in an agency). |

Aimi is a different case, it all start going north when she start In Idolmaster before Bushi project made up half of her career, Ayasa is different, if she go beyond Bushi, her career will explode.

| @28012001 I don’t know in what context you used the word “explode,” but I didn’t talk about Aimi in this comment. |

| I just hope it isn't as fatphobic as it sounds. |

| 2024 is officially the ecchi resurgence and I fucking LOVE IT I been seeing artwork of this for years now lol |

| Finally my chubby elf waifu is geting an anime adaptation. |

| @Kenchiin The manga itself isn't really fatphobic. The therapist mostly just encourages her to be healthy and gets mad when she doesn't. The only really mean moments are when 2 of the fat elves start to insult each other. (There's a whole dark elf vs light elf rivalry) |

| @Kenchiin Congratulations on your first comment of this kind, lol. Well, I wouldn't call it fatphobic when the manga literally enjoys the chubby physique of the main girl. |

| How ecchi is this series? |

How ecchi is this series?
| @Tokoya The series regularly has the girls going to bathhouses and spa's and they don't cover anything. Except a small light over their genitalia. That's it. There are other bits of nudity but it tends to be comedic. Every volume i read had at least one scene of the girls nude. |
| My waifu is the most wonderful waifu. Mai Valentine. |
| Hell yeah, I'm stoked for animated Kuroeda. Not stoked for an anime giving it more attention to dickheads though. |
 |
| Welp time to read the manga then. |
| Thick elf ecchi anime, noice. |
