Dropped.

How dare you go against the fundamental law of physics, dropping things you never picked up? Good job.

Idk the eyes look weird. As long as it gets good first episode ratings, I will watch it.

I swear everything gets an anime. 90% of community won't care about something if it has an anime.

Not particularly interested in the anime, but for Choucho fans, she has a nice song to go with a video for it!

I like the concept of the show... but the character...she's in university?

I can only think of two anime series set around a university: Yojouhan Shinwa Taikei and NHK ni Youkoso!. They both turned out rather well.

But yeah, she does look too young.
