Never heard of this one before, will probably have short episodes? If they include some fanservice I might be inclined to watch it :3

This has to be a short and it might be good if Yoshiko's stupidity leads to over the top situations and not just being super mundane.

Knowing the styles of this series, I wouldn't be surprised if they follow a Mangaka-san to Assistant-san type of format for it.

there is really few fanservice here... only when showing how stupid, ignorance and no self aware our heroine is...

Hmm... ok, it sounds stupid enough for me to try. I'm pretty sure the comedy will get stale after a couple of episodes, especially if all the jokes are around this girl’s stupidity. I could be wrong though...

I'm still waiting for my Yugami-kun ni wa Tomodachi ga Inai adaption...

Been reading this one for a while now. Probably gonna be a short.

I can already see the people who get irrationally angry at female on male slapstick foaming at the mouth. Fear not, this is overwhelmingly the reverse.

Well, more 4-koma adaptations are always welcome honestly. And well if its something like Mangaka-san to Assistant-san, I wouldn't mind it since I personally thought that series was good.

I've read a fair bit of this manga and I enjoyed it, although it did feel a bit haremy at times. I look forward to seeing Sayaka in full colour. Considering how much Dagashi Kashi failed when trying to adapt a manga short into a full length anime I hope this adapts the 6 page chapters into 3/4 minute episodes and possibly be 2 cour rather than trying to shove a bunch of chapters into each episode and try to tie them together in ways they never were in the manga.

because the fanservice is just like it mentioned... simply showing underwear because her stupidity instead pure fanservice, it doesn't really showed it that often... and that's it...

this has 8 volume already IIRC... it's the translation that got pretty far behind (4 volume or so, check baka update...) so the amount of source isn't a problem (well, probablaly still need filler "conclusion")... not to mention it 4-koma that need to adjusted when they adapted to anime ... that's why 4-koma adaptatiob usually adapted less amount of volume compare normal kind of manga...

They assume it's short because Mangaka-san anime episodes were half of normal ones. So not complete short but same time format like Cromartie or Muromi-san.

my only hope for the studio is that their the one's the made mondaji and NouCome (the Erabe anime)

I sincerely hope this gains traction, more so on Tumblr because of the inevitable sh1tstorm on seeing the Male MC absolutely beat the sh1it out of the main girl.

almost literally every other new anime that comes out nowadays will have the girl beat up the guy, so it's honestly refreshing that it's the opposite this time
