No. For the time being anyways.
Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together.

Considering the man behind this, I would say absolutely.

A little bit in the first episode, but clearly not the main romance of the series.

Come back and ask in 7 weeks. Actually don't come back at all, if you can't read and see that this anime just started airing today. Just kidding champ, but seriously this anime just started airing today. It's key so there may be romance in this. There is "romance" in the first episode but it ends in about 5 minutes in a hilarious fashion. Come back and ask in a few weeks, or not at all your choice.

It's Jun Maeda. I'd be shocked if there ISN'T romance in the series at some point.

To the OP though, Charlotte is an anime-original series much like how Angel Beats was at the time. Of course, Angel Beats did eventually get adapted to a visual novel, but at the time of its release, it was an anime original series.

The first episode didn't really present much in terms of romance. I mean, it did show Yuu trying to hook up with the prettiest girl in his class (and succeeds in some fashion) but then it all goes awry when he essentially gets blackmailed to transfer from a different school. I suppose I could "spoiler" tag that, but I highly doubt it's much of a spoiler since it is a relatively minor event in the first episode.

It didn't get very "romantic" though if that's what you're implying. It wasn't like Yuu and Nao "hit it off" in this first episode.

It's not like if Jun never wrote something without romance. *cough* little busters refrain *cough*

There's a 4-koma manga of this.

relatively certain that came first, since people have already translated the first few chapters.

Correct, it was started in May, however the anime concept was created first, the 4-koma was created to market the series, the series will lead to an eventual Visual Novel, and that will hopefully lead to a bunch of other commercial products. In short this is designed to become a franchise.

So we may get some romance, however there should be several potential romantic routes so that the VN will sell.

Dude it's original so you can't be spoiled... Unless you take in account the studios who are making this, so going by that you'll have... Heavy drama, comedy is already there and romance. Uh uh... probably have too, some big plot twists or brain rape about the powers.

I'm not that into romance anime I have seen it all and it's boring and cliche to me. All I see are the tags School and Super Power on this anime don't want any shoujo in this.

Not really sure if you know what Shoujo means. But anyways it's a very high chance that this will have a romance subplot.

Shoujo is manga aimed at a teenage female readership. The name romanizes the Japanese 少女 (shōjo), literally "young girl". Shōjo manga covers many subjects in a variety of narrative and graphic styles, from historical drama to science fiction — often with a strong focus on human and romantic relationships and emotions

I rather have it focus on the plot, but the cliche is coming so it may get the romance subplot and I may drop it after that.

No one really knows. It's an anime original after all. With lots of Lelouch elements lol.

Although the romance story might look like Code Geass' romance. So yeah... I'm not from the future, so I can't say anything.

Except just cause there's a romance subplot doesn't make it shoujo. Hell, most romance sub plots for these kinds of shows are more akin to shounen/seinen romance

If anything this is clearly Shounen, normal male lead and all... You said that you've seen it all and romance anime it's cliche. Well by your list(if it's updated) the only titles similar to this are probably Toradora and Angel Beats. You still have a lot of good romance to watch if you want.
