Looks interesting enough for me to put on my PTW list, although that could change yet.

Can we get a new series with MILFS just one time?

Milfs don't sell BDs and it doesn't get figures made in marketable numbers, the market for such anime outside of hentai doesn't really exist.

*sigh*

wouldn't it be nice if they did

Another original anime? They're planning too many original animes this year .-.

how is that a bad thing?

Adaptions are cool and all, but anime originals don't happen enough in my opinion.

Sola scriptwriter and MM character designer? I'm in.

We don't really know how big that thing is. It could be far far away but gigantic. Or it could be right behind the girl therefore likely being something like a small spaceship which means the loli is an alien.
I sure hope it's the first, since the "loli from outer space" trope has been used too many times already.

I'm with you on the first one, I really hope that this is something original, and not something about some guy meeting this girl from outer space which later turns into a harem. But still, I hope the synopsis is interesting, and it would be pretty neat is that thing behind the girl is an actual place or something to that extent.

Really not sure about this.

And why the hell so many original anime when there are hundreds of great manga waiting to be adapted ... seriously.

Well, most adaptations are to a lesser or bigger extent failures so it should be nice to have more original series that don't need to suffer from fillers or crappy stretching/cutting to fit the airing block. Should, since sadly most original series are as bad as adaptations or even worse with bad writing, dull characters and cliche stories. In short, it doesn't really matter whether it's original or adaptation, it can suck either way.

Loli spotted.....

Written by Naoki Hisaya? Oh.. seems interesting~

Anyone else reminded of NagiAsu when you looked at the girl's eye? ITS BLUEEE

ಠ__ಠ It bothers me a little how the majority of people here are watching this for the loli

I'm curious about what that thing is in the background though, I'm looking forward to seeing the synopsis of the show. With the main writer of Kanon being behind this project, I hope it's interesting.

Looks pretty interesting. I'll be waiting for the trailer and synopsis to sway me, though.
