Downgrade355 said: VioLink said: Girls with boyish(not manly) faces are usually cute. Yeah, if you were to add female features aside from the face to like, half the male characters in anime they'd totally look like attractive girls. Suruga Kanbaru is a good example. |

Ejc said: KnB S2 is in Sep though, while this anime is in July.Downgrade355 said: Ejc said: Hm, then it may be possible for both to go above 10k at least. I still stand by my opinion that one will significantly outsell the other. It will possibly be KuroBas S2 due to already having an established fanbase. KuroBas will certainly outsell this one, why? Because as you've mentioned, it already has an established fanbase, the first season sold fairly high, and this swimming anime isn't getting any hype in japan, as opposed to western fans, it's funny because KuroBas never got this much hype over here. although KuroBas S2 will sell much less than than S1 because of the fact that the female fans are spending their pennies on UtaPri. That is a good reason. It is also a major reason why the winter 2013 anime looks so dismal compared to spring 2013 anime. The otaku were saving their money for the major anime in spring 2013 (railgun, oreimo and utapri). This will definitely have an effect on how effective the buying power is for the female demographic in the Summer season due to having KuroBas S2 in the exact same season. Male otaku will also be pooling their resources on the upcoming Monogatari Second Season, which is realistically going to sell 50k minimum as the average I think. |

| Saw this awesome news on my twitter feed when I woke up like an hour ago. I have to say this is the best news to wake up to. I look forward to watching this this summer, if I'm not too busy looking for a place to live... |
 |
| In July already? Was expecting this to come out later. But i'm glad ^^ |
| I've never heard of this, but after watching the trailer...my body is ready! |

| My Twitter My Tumblr - Anime Blogging on current airing season as I watch them. My deviantArt - Anime FanArts. Please leave replies on my profile page, as I am unlikely to see them otherwise. Thanks. |

BoaCC said: There are two trailers. Watch the Shingeki edited version. Yes the less awkward, more manly version. LOL |
| LOL laughing so hard...must be disappointing to those who thought it will be FMP... |
 |
| I will watch. Ookiku Furikabutte is one of my fav anime, so I don't mind the homosexual undertone that this anime will have. Will I finally like one anime from KyoAni? |
| YEAH! I knew it was this one. Great cast, but why is Mamo-chan voicing Pimp-kun...? Well, I'm sure he'll do a good job. + Yonaga Tsubasa and Tatsuhisa Suzuki, so YAY! Opening by OLDCODEX, cool. Let's hope they manage to pull this out. |
| the most amazing thing about this is that this was probably all due to the amazing fan reaction that the PV had. fangirls went mental about these 30 seconds. so in a way it would be stupid if kyoani hadnt reacted. but i still find it weird they are gonna make this for real, as if fans shouldnt be allowed to have that big of an influence. FUJOSHI POWAAAAS! well not only fujoshis... i assume there is no female that DOESNT look forward to this at least a bit xD |

| I'm so happy right now and its airing next season. This is the best announcement ever from KyoAni (unless they say oh hey more FMP! next year) Watching not even going to think about it cause I've been waiting for this since I seen it all over my dashboard on tumblr. At least we got names for the guys instead of everyone calling them Pimp, Tsun, Shota, and Senpai. xD Oh and hey there is a megane DO WANT THIS ADAPTION NOW! |

FUJOSHI POWAAAAS! well not only fujoshis... i assume there is no female that DOESNT look forward to this at least a bit xD It's pure coincidence. This show is based on a LN that won an honorable mention from the KyoAni awards two years ago. TWO. It was likely greenlit for an anime around that time. |

Trolls and Otaku who are pissed that they won't be able to fap to their precious female moe blobs this time around. xD I'm glad that KyoAni is taking a risk in doing this I just hope that it sells well so that we can get more stuff out like this. Cause I really loved Kimi to Boku, NichiBros, and Tsuritama they were centered around male characters and I think we need more anime like this instead of the usual "cute girls doing cute things" or "girls in a highschool setting" This is a breathe of fresh air and I'm glad KyoAni is doing this. |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| Instead of "cute girls doing cute things" it's now "cute boys doing cute things" i really dont see the difference, except the change in gender. Plus it hasn't even aired yet and people are already giving it 10s and 1s?! Dafuq? |

| No FMP? Oh well. This thread, though... it's like the anime already ended. |

They are perfectly fine, along with the 12 people who have dropped it (before it even aired). Wow I knew people would be butt devastated but this is just too much hahahaha. I love it. |

Lol this is still the same moe shit pandering Kyo ani is famous for, this is literally the same thing except different genders. ''Cute boys doing cute things '' OMG so much different and a breath of fresh air /derp. |
| Omfg lol NO. Didn't expect it to happen. But what the hell, will watch it. |
| The only thing you can rely on is that you can't rely on anything. |
| Might be the only guy whose actually excited for this and its not for the guys, but for the swimming aspect of it. Really don't mind BL/Yaoi moments all that much. |

It was likely greenlit for an anime around that time. holyshit, now that i did some research, it's actually true. not that i'm one of those people who have the mentality as the one you replied to, but this anime isn't getting hype in japan, ITS ALL THE WESTERNERS. |
jmal said: I don't understand why this concerns people. If someone who likes KyoAni shows doesn't like the premise of one, they can just not watch it. They can watch other stuff in summer and come back for the next show (Kyoukai in this case) . I don't need to like or even watch every show a studio does. I didn't feel alienated from Shaft because I didn't care about watching Mariaholic. I didn't feel alienated from JC Staff because I didn't care about watching Arcana Famiglia. And I see no reason to feel alienated from KyoAni if I didn't want to watch this (though that's not the case, I do plan to try this out). basically, the male otaku in japan (not all of them), who're the pillar of KyoAni, are disappointed, though i don't really find it that reasonable, i do understand the whole "ermehgerd studio betray us" thing. |
| Someone posted a news from the start of last year that was already a foreshadowing of this adaptation. We all just like to shitpost I believe. This thread will probably be hot and alive for a good time so I'll go finish my stuff in that needs to be updated. |
|
| So it DID get an anime in the end... well... what can I say? Seems like a complete waste to have one of the best studios doing this, but I guess I'll give it a shot just in case. |
 |
| FUCK YEAH |
 What "Adolescence" do you have? Do you remember "Childhood"? The irreplaceable one existed there. |
| The one guy with the split hair looks legit... I guess it was only a matter of time... Will watch. |
 |
| I think it looks pretty awesome so far. All male cast for a change and a focus on swimming. Great animation as always, I'm quite intrigued in this show. |
| Tamako was a fail. Instead doing something different, they are going with more bad slice of life, but now fujoshi oriented. Not watching more Kyoani series until they change their mind. They can try something different or going to do new season of other successful series, but they are doing the same again and again, i thought that with hyouka they were going to change a little, but no. |

| I'll probably watch it. If I don't like it, I'll drop it, since I'm not being forced by the studio to watch it |
