Manga 'Seitokai ni mo Ana wa Aru!' Gets TV Anime Adaptation

So, is this a typical high school harem or one of those titles where the MC ends up in the middle of a group of weird girls?

And I was wondering yesterday why it's taking so long for an adaptation to be announced, because it is inevitable.

The manga is pretty amusing but I'm not expecting much, since 4koma adaptations are rarely good. They just poorly translate into animation.

@RobertBobert Weird guy in a group of weird girls (teacher is weird too) but one girl seems to be leading. I think her design is brought from another series, so she might be the author's favourite. Oh right, there's a trap too, so a weird guy in a group of weird girls and a deviant.

@Antanaru Sounds like a typical non-CGDCT yonkoma. But I wonder why you think such titles are bad sources for anime. In the last couple of years, one of the most hyped anime was literally created from yonkoma.

In the poster I can see only one boy and that is the main guy I assume, but the synopsis tells me there is another GUY in that visual... now who the heck is that lol.

@RobertBobert Jokes usually just don't land. With 4 panels you have a quick set up and the punchline, while when animated you can often see the punchline coming for a while or it just falls flat. There're some decent 4koma based anime but I think they succeed mainly because either the source has an overarching plot to make a full episode of more than just a string of gags, or the adaptation strays so far from the source it just uses the setting and the characters.

Which anime do you have in mind?

@RobertBobert Green is a trap

I remember this one a bit

I do not remember if the manga itself was ecchi, but I remember the author was being very cultured on twitter recently.
Either way sadly it doesn't matter, even if this is ecchi, 90% will be censored

Hope the comedy will be good, for those who stay

@Antanaru I'm talking about Bocchi the Rock. I think it's a matter of taste and perception of this format. For example, in Bocchi's fandom, on the contrary, there are many anime-only fans who unironically consider the manga itself bad and try to convince you that it was the anime that made it good, lmao.

@EtherLux Even such a relatively obscure manga is already causing controversy on Twitter? Heh, no wonder even Mamoru Oshii is criticizing the sensitivity of modern audiences.

@RobertBobert Haven't seen Bocchi but what you said reminds me of Keion. Anime is nothing like the manga and the manga is pretty bad. I guess you either only take characters and setting to make full length episodes or make a string of short gags like Tsurezure Children. That one was fine in either version.

@FullyCharged It's kind of ecchi. One girl is an absentminded short stack and other has a rather dirty mind. There's also a whole light music club of depraved girls but that remains mainly descriptive or just hinted.

You pretty much included the answer of my question in your reply.
Also I saw them retweeting naughty stuff (including of their own works).
That made me hope that the adaptation will also be naughty. I haven't fully checked out the manga so idk how far it goes, but considering the context, the attitude of the author and such, this could very well get the gushing over magical girls treatment in case it wasn't naughty at base level...



The type of ecchi I was referring to is what I consider true ecchi, but the tag itself is way more broad.

Just funky situations with nothing showed (pretty much all ecchi shows nowadays are like this) -> not ecchi for me, and not worth checking out imo

Just some pantyshot and half nudity here and there but no naughty bits ever shown (something like Strike the Blood) -> barely ecchi for me, if the plot is good it may pass

Naughty bits shown -> now this is ecchi for me

@FullyCharged Oh. So you mean ecchi as in H, hentai.
