| I've heard of Kyoani anime splitting people across moe lines before but this may be the first time they end up splitting a fanbase across gender lines too. Boys be nice to the girls, girls be nice to the boys. Everyone just play nice. :p No seriously though this is probably the most trolling I've ever seen over a Kyoani anime announcement. Usually it's greeted with nothing but hype and positive talk. New territory for the studio indeed. |
| PTW, we'll see, can't be worse than Tamako anyway… |

I was kidding fellow. Lord, just looking at this thread, I'm imagining how it would be if KyoAni gave those boys some girlfriends, hahahaha. Imagine if they gave the girls of K-ON boyfriends. Oh wait, otaku will go crazy with rage. hahahaha |

symbv said: One thing that particularly caught my eyes is how all the names of the character are neutral in gender. Makoto, Haruka, Rei, Nagisa and Rin all can be both male and female names. Very intriguing. Same here, but I didn't actually know they were neutral so I was quite creeped out by the naming at first. It's still weird though :D Not gonna watch, but I find it an interesting idea after all that KyoAni made nowadays. I like how they want to do something aimed at girls (mainly?). |

dankickyou said: Those aren't the qualities that made me think they're gay. I'm more than happy for males to have good healthy bodies, be friends, do sports and w.e. But wtf is it with flinging their hair about and doing all the other cringe shit.Mkayyy said: Didn't need you to tell me that genius. But at first impression if I saw a guy acting all girly and cute then i'd think that they're possibly gay. Lets analyze for a minute. We have a group of energetic and attractive young men who happened to be athletes with healthy bodies+They also happened to be friends+showed no sexual activity whatsoever in the PV=GAY! Are all the boys in your school sports team gay? |
 |
| I laugh at the people who always rage when something for the fujoshi and other girls is announced. And of course this is gonna be some yaoi. Expect a major gangbang shower scene from this show. |

I am a yuri fan through and through and of course I pick up "obvious" yuri theme even though the anime is seldom explicitly yuri. The same would apply to an all-male main cast. The unfortunate thing is homophobia dies hard among many people.It's a case of double standards: Anime with all-female (or primarily female) main cast = Z0MG YURIIZZ!!!!!1111 XD Anime with all-male (or primarily male) main cast = Z0MG GAYS AND FUJOSHIS!!!!! ^ That seems to be a common attitude. |
| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
symbv said: phoenixalia said: People's hidden yaoi fear will start rearing its head straight away regardless if any actual gay things are done or not.Dude. We've had just one PV so far. I didn't see any of the characters doing gay things. I think it would be implied as such by the producer anyways to get people talking --> increase awareness. I am not expecting any actual Yaoi here, just teasing BL is enough for this to sell plenty. KyoAni is pretty conservative in their SOL, real gay relationship is unlikely to happen |
 |
| If it's what it looks like then there's nothing bad you can't say about KyoAni anymore... |
Ii tenki desu ne... |

| fanservice for the girls |

| KyoAni making a new trend. MALE MOE Anyways, I'm pretty sure this will not be some BL shit. Still expecting a great story out of this. Also, I think its good that KyoAni is trying something new. Btw, why no Sugita and OnoD? *smh* |
FrostToaster said: I don't get it... What's with all the hype for this anime? Western fujoshi apparently, i'm actually starting to show a little more respect for the japanese fujoshi. |
| Haters gonna hate (￣ー￣) I would have preferred a different cast, but it being official now alone is already like a dream come true! |
| Aaaaaaand another KyoAni club anime. And this one doesn't even sound interesting, so I'll probably skip it. |
| Hot characters. They are even better than those in that anime. |

DarkraiYoshi said: My ovaries just exploded. LOL! That kind of easily? XDD! I lol'd at what you said. |
|
| HA Don't believe, that they actually are making that "swimming anime"... :D Well, I'm totally in. Finally something without moe gals. If it sells well, there might be more anime like that from KyoAni <3 |

Face_Faith said: Haters gonna hate (￣ー￣) I would have preferred a different cast, but it being official now alone is already like a dream come true! Yep, I don't see why hate when they haven't even see the first episode yet. Probably the typical KyoAni haters everywhere. KyoAni make a bunch of cute girls in club > hate. KyoAni make a bunch of macho boys in club > still hate. ??? wtf? Yeah, I would have preferred a different cast too. I wonder how they chose the seiyuus.. audition? |
| This new show is apparently based on one of the honorable mentions for a KyoAni award. It's probably going to be a very loose adaptation like Chuuni. |

KyoAni likes pandering, so most of us are already expecting them to use that ability in this show, and which one will most likely to eat the bait? Fujoshi audience. You just have to look at the mood the PV and trailer give us. |

| The character design changed from the CM to the anime. I am disappoint. Will watch anyway. |

Probably because of the all-male cast. As a kyoani fan, I don't think there will be a gay thingy in this. KyoAni would never do that. Some of the KyoAni fans are probably disappointed because they thought the latest project would be KnK ( Kyōkai no Kanata ), personally I prefer that but I'm not disappointed. Also there's the ones who are always hoping for a sequel of K-ON, Chuu2, Haruhi and FMP. I can't blame them. |
Trisection said: Yea I honestly didn't even know it was.This new show is apparently based on one of the honorable mentions for a KyoAni award. It's probably going to be a very loose adaptation like Chuuni. It seems nowadays we just need to look at what gets an honorable mention for the KyoAni awards to find out what their future projects are. Still hoping for Haruhi S3 :( |
 |
| God bless you Kyoani, this is truly the most hilarious reaction to anything I've seen in a long time. (I didn't think you had it in you, to be honest) |

That's just the mindset of some western fans. most KyoAni fans in japan are disappointed because this is getting an anime, looks like the foreign fandom's petition actually worked, but will they BUY the BD/DVDs? that i doubt. |
| Oh man my body is ready |
Niyawa said: Does KyoAni like pandering in particular? If so why not every work it makes sells a lot? Also you mustn't forget that female audience is NOT equal to fujoshi audience. If anything fujoshi only makes up a minority of female audience.KyoAni likes pandering, so most of us are already expecting them to use that ability in this show, and which one will most likely to eat the bait?

| Will watch in swim briefs. |
Downgrade355 said: Well, those "KyoAni fans" you read about are almost all male fans.

As the rapid growth in number of posts in this thread attests, this is a real tinderbox for many so-called "anime fans". I really don't understand the hate on this either. In fact, this is something I would usually never expect from KyoAni so I'm really interested on what's that about. |

| I can't wait for this anime!! >////< |
  |
| All of your tears are delicious. |
symbv said: Well, those "KyoAni fans" you read about are almost all male fans. The success of this anime may probably rest on whether it will get the female fans to buy, not how much it appeals to the male fans. Apparently, since KyoAni's fanbase is mostly male, from what i've read and seen, they consider this some kind of "betrayal" (lol), but yeah, it's all about wether or not they get female fans or the Westerners who started the whole thing to actually buy the DVDs/BDs, and in all honesty, this kind of artstyle that's used usually for the "moe sliceoflife" doesn't look like something that appeals to the female fans, of course that applies only to the japanese, see'ing as most of the hype comes from foreign fans. |

I don't think K-ON will get a sequel, they did the movie to give it a good end right? As I said, the fans are hoping for one. The movie was awesome and all but I don't see why would you call that an end. There's still the college arc in the Manga so KyoAni could make an another season with some additional content. The question though is whether will they do it or not. Personally, I see some light to it. |
| hahahaha wow. My main qualm is "KyoAni original". Didn't care at all for Munto or Tamako Market. |
