First thoughts going through mind:
*looks at title* Can't read Japanese, but the title looks girly.
*clicks on site link* Woah... lots of pink, hearts, and girls.
*looks at two characters on left* Wait, those are guys.
*closely looks at all characters* Wait, they're wearing pants.... wha- they're all guys?! Pretty sure they were girls.

Defiantly yaoi bait,
but seriously, whats up with Japan now making all these seriously girly guys? I'm a girl, and dudes that look exactly like girls are... quite disturbing to me. They don't even register "cute" in my mind. Then again, everybody's got different tastes...

If this is a comedy, I might watch it.

Aaaaand the straight men are already crying from sheer analanguish. Why am I not surprised?

Like always. If they're gonna act this butthurt, I may as well bash their beloved 45234234 idol anime and harems when they get released.

Just kidding, I'm more mature than that. lul

I won't prematurely judge the characters though since I though the character designs for Miracle Train was ugly, but I ended up liking the characters. We will see. I'm interested though because of the director.

Definitely. And Miracle Train's plot was very good, when it got to it. The art was outdated though.

Oh yeah glad to see someone else who liked Miracle Train! Though this one doesn't look like there will be much plot haha. Honestly if this is something like Meganebu with Danshi Koukousei comedy, then I'm all in for it. Or if it ends up like Kimi to Boku, it would be right up my alley. Either way, not holding too much expectation nor judgement for this until more info is released, or until it starts airing ^^

Oh God, and I thought people are exaggerating about those feminine guys. Egads, they were right!
But there is a megane-guy, I'm gonna check it out. It seems the trend is declining in Japan nowadays. More often than not there is no megane-guy in the cast with pretty boys which makes me a sad panda. Japan plz.

I've put it on my plan to watch. :) I'm not sure if I like all of the character designs though.

I'm looking forward to more information particularly the cast. Hopefully there will be some seiyuu I like in it.

This is why I don't understand why so many people thought they were female.
Since I've noticed that it's rare, I hardly see girls in pants, especially when there are school uniforms (...which often appear in anime), so I cannot understand why you would consider them girls at first...

naah believe me i wasn't turned on and i still thought those would be girls at first! when i see an anime pic with a bunch of charas with pretty feminine hairstyle, body and eyes cuddling and a big pink heart with love written in it above them then at least imo it's pretty normal to think those can't seriously be boys ;) just think realistically

"Binan Koukou Chikyuu Bouei-bu LOVE!" sounds like another shounen romance or harem series for guys to watch. That's why this thread has a lot of hate already.

XDDD

@ Title:
I just went over to ANN and the title there is:
"Binan Kōkō Chikyū Bōei-bu Love! Anime With High School Boys Unveiled"
So I'm guessing the fact that "Boys" is included in the title makes the difference :O

... Ah, now I see, I think. "Title" can be meant to be the title of the article or the title of the anime~

Well, with the other "girly" stuff except for the character design, that could either mean that girls are involved (as in characters) or that it's made for girls. So what one assumes first regarding that could be either this or that, 50/50.

Regarding the character design, I can definitely see why one might think for a moment that the pink-haired guy is a girl (not just because of the pink stuff, but also because of the accessory in the hair and the kind of eyes he has), but not really the rest... Or maybe I'm just more used to that *shrug*.

The only character that really looks girly is the pink haired guy.

I'm going to laugh so hard if he acts the manliest of them all it would be the total opposite to his looks.

This is essentially what I was going to say. The only reason that that's "normal" is because people like to put down guys that show any femininity and girls that show any masculinity saying that that's not normal and shit just because they differ from what you are a little bit.

come on you two this has nothing to do with me valuing gender roles! i do both cooking and cleaning every now and then at home and i don't really have a problem with that. i don't care wether or not girls play football either. it doesn't matter to me who's leading. i don't care wether girls wear skirt or pants - even though personally i think the first looks way more erotic but that's just my taste and nothing else. i could go on forever like this so please stop generalising. i may not be a female rights activist but i'm definitely not one of their opposers.

the thing here ist that you can say what you want guys cuddling like that in that position are pretty much the exception in real ife. it's the same with the hairstyle and the eyes of at least the third from the left. i think i don't have to go on with this after all i pretty much said all that before already! also keep in mind that i was only talking about the first impression on the pic on the official website. of course i'm generalising with all this just as much but that's just what realism is about. i'm sure if you see someone walking in front of you with feminine curves, long hair, neatly shaved legs and a skirt you won't think this is a guy either right? now imagine this person turns around and it's a boy and not a girl. would you think of yourself as discriminatory? and even more what would you think if it that person would be neither a boy nor a girl?

do you get what i mean?

I don't get all the complains about them 'looking' 'girly', if anything, they don't look girly enough. I mean, they aren't even wearing skirts or girly clothes.

watching it solely because of the director, hes a master of comedy

As for whether this looks "gay" or not, i really dont care that much, they could make this a straight shounen ai show and i wouldnt care if the comedy is good.

Eh, since when this was disappointing? Just take Love Stage!! for example. It blew off every "romance" shounen harem and many of the animated yaoi series out there :)

Seriously, though, even the title is a nonsensical compilation of other anime titles (perhaps). You were already tainted, ^^, coming here and all.
