It WILL be a 5-min-flash show. I'd bet my balls on it.
Which sucks, because I LOVE comedies. Fuck why don't they do comedies more often?
We always get those slice of life comedies which just spend too much time trying to have a shitty story or romance and end up sucking at comedy....
Nichijou bombing should tell you why they don't make many pure comedies. It had everything you needed for a successful show: KyoAni, cute girls, great production values, tons of marketing. Yet it bombed since they forgot the most important thing: Otaku generally don't buy comedies.
No, they thought "random stuff not making sense and being weird = funny". And that's not true. Nichijou was often times just weird, but not funny. You could also say it was VERY hit and miss. That's why it failed. There are some great comedies out there, but it's not easy to get to a level where many people like it. Doesn't hinder the good ones to become successful enough though. (Something like Working, Baka Test, Lucky Star, Yuru Yuri, School Rumble, Gintama, Hayate, Squid Girl and so on) Even those aren't for everyone of course, but that's normal.
And what's this with there isn't much comedy? What's with the new Hayate season, Seitokai no Ichizon, Hidamari Sketch.. those should focus more than enough on Comedy and/or Parody. And that's just this season.
I really don't think there isn't enough comedy. Would be sad otherwise because that's one of the few things which Anime tend to do right. Drama tends to be way too exaggerated. (Although there are enough who like that melodrama which you can also find in any soap opera, just not in 2d of course) Good action needs a good budget and someone who can use it well. Comedy of course also depends, but it seems to be harder to screw up.

Pencil stuck in nose tells me the humor will probably be about as infantile as Gintama's.
inb4 penis, poop, and nose-picking "jokes."

Art looks good so far, potentially hilarious stuff.

The cover art is so.... erm, I didn't like it. I wonder if it's funny.
This pretty much.
Has to be abnormally funny to justify such art in my eyes.
