THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
As it was mentioned it did receive a half preview. From the start I can tell that:
http://myanimelist.net/character/40196/Iori_Nagase
will be my #1. I love her joking around with perverted stuff such as showing off her Misaka like shorts instead of panties FAD. That's good cause I don't see girls wearing that too much.

The settings and atmosphere have a K-ON feel except there are males of course this time around. Not only girls.

That being said comes my #2:
http://myanimelist.net/character/40198/Yui_Kiriyama
a possible candidate for romance with her friend here:
http://myanimelist.net/character/40195/Taichi_Yaegashi
in fact that guy was pretty cool in attitude.

Finally WTF at the end, I hope they show the whole switch cause I don't see how POOF will explain it.

Might edit later. Half episode is half but enough for a impression. What are yours?

Now that's pretty interesting.

Taichi is enjoying his chance to the greatest extent.

The premise was interesting, but I was bored for most of the preview. Himeko's cool though.

Oh Taichi...

Saw screencaps for this ep. Will wait for subs.

If it has a K-ON feel ( No surprise since it's the same character designer ) I'm all for it! Especially since there's pantsu and boob groping from the caps/gifs I've seen so far :D

Having males as possible love interests is fine by me too. Also as an added bonus, the same seiyuu that voiced Yui from K-ON is playing one of the main characters!

Just saw the first real episode of the extended preview.

Dat body switch.
Dat drama.
Dat questions

Well, tbh I liked this episode overall and the ED is performed well. Body switch is serious business, people.

Looks quite funny and interesting so far will stay on it, since when theres body swapping involved hilarity and misunderstanding always follows.

The art is just like that of K-ON and there are some similarities in the characters as well.
It's a shame this is only a preview would have loved to see the howl episode, i did read a few chapters of the manga a so i know what would happen but still it's pretty well done.

The girl that stood out most this episode was definitely Nagase but Inaba seems like a very interesting girl as well especially her personality.

Tho it followed the manga it did give some more explanation that the manga and some extra scenes which makes me want to see this even more.
Can't wait for the anime to start.

I heard Himeko is voiced by Sawashiro Miyuki but it sounded like Shiraishi Ryouko who voiced Himeko from Sket Dance ^.^
And I was from WAAAAAAHH when I heard Takuma Terashima as that Aoki guy
the voice actor of Yui soundes familiar but I don't know who, maybe Tmatsu Haruka?
I don't know this Kanemoto Hisako, she doesn't sound bad though.

The only Anime i could find in your list with Kanemoto Hisako was Sora no Woto where she played the main character Sorami Kanata.
Sora no Woto was a brilliant anime.

Art is not bad. Oh look, one of the girl's name is Yui....Wait, why the fuck does she looks really similar to Sokabe from K-ON!. A mix of K-ON and Haganai I guess? Since Iori reminded me a lot of Rika. Himeko's voice is kinda like Mio. Though she is being voiced by Miyuki and not Yoko.
What? They changed bodies? Tsk. Was hoping there will be no supernatural thingy included and just go straight rom-com slice of life. Well, this Anime is cute. Iori + Yui <3 Too moe. Can't wait for the 2nd half and the 720/1080p

Will surely watch. Moe moe = Added instantly to watchlist!

To everyone acting out, it's indeed only a preview. But damn, was anyone else bothered by that girl's mole? Not that I have a thing against it, but it doesn't move and stuff. Just looks badly animated. Heehee. A badly animated mole.

It did not bother me but with the animation it did look strange in certain parts of segments from the episode itself.

It might be corrected by the time next episode airs but this minor detail will not bother me despite it did at first due to its rather weird outlook on the girl.

Sad that this was only a preview! Iori was quite cute, I liked her. And .. Taichi, was his name? He seemed to be enjoying his position as a girl! Can't say I blame him.~ I think I'll definitely keep watching to see what happens.

ah.. this is a better way of doing a Pre-Air, i guess.. gets us hooked with the anime before every other anime show that would air soon does.. but not showing the entire thing so that we'd be motivated to watch the first episode as it aired along with the others to allow a feeling of continuity.. i remembered watching that 2-episode-long pre-air of Accel World earlier in spring season and i almost forgot to watch it because i didn't have to watch it for 2 weeks when the proper airing schedule started..

K-onish!!! This will be replacing the void left from Dusk Maiden.
I really love this cliche switching bodies... I think this is a first I have seen switching bodies in anime.

It just doesn't feel right that I can't list it as watching just yet. I will be watching this!

Going purely off the first 11 minutes Himeko and Iori are going to be my favourite characters.

Inaba is my favorite so far. I was kind of expecting ten characters because I misread the summary, ... and I was confused because everyone listed this as episode 1. Though it is is half of it, I guess.

I expect many awkward situations.

So yeah, I was wondering why 2 - 3 girls from this Anime looks like side characters from K-ON!! She is the culprit! Yukiko Horiguchi did the character design of K-ON and also the original character design of Kokoro Connect. Damn she good! MOEEEEEEEEEEEE!

I am already hooked... Probably because I'm a sucker for genderbenders.
It's a disappointment that they stopped scanlating the manga after ch 2. But now I'm going to see how the story develops!
