Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai on MAL

HELL YEAH, AT LAST!!!

awww it sounds alright, I want to watch this now :)

I don't see how they can realistically expect to port the lovely (manga or LN) art over to anime. I'll praise them if they do but I don't expect much in that department.

The manga itself (which I assume it similar to the LN) is fairly standard but enjoyable moeblobbery/harem fare but I'll definitely be watching the anime. Please be a non-shitty studio...

With that said, time to drop the manga.

I will definitely watch it.

OMG! Awesome :D

Well this work's, I was getting ready to start on the Manga but now I'll just wait for the Anime.

Probably watch it.

Reminds me of Haruhi minus the supernatural BS and MM!

Full of moe as well

I'm game

Hell yeah! This will be awesome.

cool xD

Sounds good. ^^ Definetely going to watch. ^^

Oh wow, I've been considering reading this. Looking forward to it.

Best. News. Ever.

Wow, I was just about to pick up the manga since I found it funny when my friend showed it to me.
Great news. Will definitely watch it.

Oh great, yet another anime that is a must add for me. I really need to get back in the game! ;_;

Sure as hell watching this.

nice!

Looks interesting :D

Awesome! ^O^

Holy fuck YES! Just someone good does this.

YES! O_O I knew it! I'm so happy d>w<b

Is that Mio? XD

I'll be glad to try this.

Looks nice, to be honestly

Seems interesting, probably gonna watch it :)

I did expect it to have an anime since it got more popular recently, But no this soon.
Good for the author!

Good thing I waited till now. I'll watch it. And if I like enough I might pick up the manga.

Please be a decent studio >__< and make the animation from the LN, I really like the art <3

i may watch

I'm sure this thing will get an anime soon. Beacuse that tons of doijinshi based on this story told me why XD

Seems interesting. Any scans of LN available online? PM please? :P Wanna read at least one chapter to see the style.

Light Novel adaptation = JC Staff

Hurray for shitty adaptations!

Oh the blondie's hot and besides this, the synopsis sounds interesting.

Great fuck news!! :D

OH MY GOD YES!

Who is animating it though?

If JC staff did this it'd be awesome. Watching all the people suffering.
I'd probably still enjoy it. Though you're forgetting about SHAFT.

More ontopic: Fuck yes.

>If JC staff did this it'd be awesome.
>JC staff... awesome.
>awesome

Y U DO THIS щ(ﾟДﾟщ) Seriosuly, just no J.C Staff please, nor Shaft or deen.

Fucking whore YEAH!!!
I've been waiting for this moment!

I've seen this series around a lot, but always told myself "i'll watch it if it ever gets an anime" well here it is, lol. Looks kind of interesting, I'll probably watch it when it comes out. Hopefully it's good. inb4 deen

Oh shit. Just read this a week ago and laughed at most of the jokes. Loved the manga and shall look forward to the anime~ Wonder which studio is doing it though. :X

Yay!! I've been a fan of the LN; the manga is funny as well...hope they get a good seiyu for Yozora...

Awesome! I started reading the manga about a month ago and I really didn't expect that there would be a anime adaptation this fast. Great nontheless if a good anime studio is doing and otherwise it would be better if they stayed at a LN and manga.

Totally unexpected. I never expected this to become an anime. Time to catch up on the manga.

YES!!! can't wait :]
I love the manga.

Even though it's another school comedy, the synopsis shows promise. If only it had drama in it then I could expect something more, or at least a little on why some of the other characters are loners.

How about KyoAni then... XD

This definitely looks like something I would watch.

I hope you're happy with AIC, then.

Because, J.C Staff aside, they are probably the mostly likely company to animate it. OreImo did pretty well sales-wise, so they will probably get the OreImo staff on this too.

As for me I watch this, but a lot depends on studio and staff. If it's AIC, as I suspect it will be, then I will check out an episode or 2 when it airs to see if it's interesting/entertaining before deciding.

Of it's J.C Staff, I will just avoid it. They haven't done anything decent since Potemayo. Of course, I have seen Toradora nor have I fully watched Nodame (or Bakuman, but that was going slow), so that's subject to change. But when we are talking about LN harem anime...

If pigs fly and Brains Base get it, then it goes much higher up on the priorities list.

yeah probably will watch it

Sounds Interesting :D

Will give it a watch, frankly I don't care what studio does it, if it has a story to tell then bring it on!
