According to the cover of the August 2017 issue of Houbunsha's Manga Time Kirara MAX magazine, which will be released on June 19, Kaori Hanzawa's comedy manga Comic Girls will receive a TV anime adaptation.

The 4-koma slice-of-life manga began its serialization in March 2014. The series currently has two compiled volumes in print, with the third volume to be released on June 27. The manga revolves around the daily life of the 15-year old up-and-coming female mangaka named Kaoruko Moeta in a dormitory with fellow professional manga artists from shoujo and shounen magazines.

So basically Mangirl 2. But will these "professional" manga artists be actual professionals?

they will, the author itself debuted at age 16 as professional mangaka

It looks a lot like GochiUsa but it most likely won't satisfy me in the same manner. I'm not complaining though since the aesthetic is really cutesy and really does make me adore the characters. And lesbian lolis is always pretty fun.

Shugaten!? All loli heroines?

Sounds like something worth a read.

I like this manga a lot, I hope a great studio gets it and makes it look gorgeous and beautifully cute in animated form! This will be the first anime adaptation of any of the mangaka's works, she has been working in the industry making manga for so long, I'm so happy for her that her new work is going to be animated!

The closest Gochiusa clone so far.

Ohoho, I beg to differ...
There are a few visual novels that would claim that title.

Shugaten! -sugarfull tempering-

"Not Chino", "Not Cocoa" and "Not Karen" lol
It's illustrated by Shiratama, a very popular Gochiusa fan artist.

And this more obvious one:

Mayonaka Pyon-Pyon Cafe Morning!

This VN also features a "Not Chino, totally not Kafuu Chino" character.

(Sorry for the big post)

Heavens to moe this is actually getting an anime! About time! So happy about this news! ;w; Really love the manga. >w< It is indeed a Gochiusa clone, but about moe mangaka instead.

Oh, I've read this, this is very close to Gochiusa, even the beginning of the story is similar. The closest Gochiusa clone so far.

The question is could it be better than Gochiusa?

Gochiusa is still better, still cute though.

Exactly my thought.

Manga Time Kirara is on a roll lately with three(?) new anime announced in the last month now.

IMO, that depends entirely on how good a job the studio adapting it does and whether or not they know how to correctly adapt the material... if, for example, Doga Kobo (aka. the KyoAni of happy-fun-time SoL anime) were to be the ones doing this anime, then YES, it most definitely could... but if it were to go to a sub-par studio like Passione (the guys who decided that huge amounts of Ecchi-fanservice would be perfect for Hinako Note >.>), then most likely NO.

The manga in and of itself imo is - and I know how much of a heretic that makes me sound like - as adorable and sometimes even more adorable than GochiUsa. So TL;DR: yes, it could actually be even better than GochiUsa with the right studio =w=.

From what ive heard, the manga for Hinako note also has a lot of fanservice.... anyway i still like it!
Also hoping for the best for this!

Yes, the 4koma manga about a 4koma mangaka! I love this one! The yuri is stronger here than it is in New Game!.

Jun 16, 2017 5:02 PM by zombie_pegasus

I wanna go and watch this now since I want more Kirara stuff. >w< But I'm pretty much sold into this.

Jun 16, 2017 4:27 PM by removed-user

Firstly, I hope Doga Kobo adapts this series......or White Fox because the art style reminds me of Gochu.....However the fuck you say that name.

Secondly,

Daily life of the 15-year old up-and-coming female mangaka named Kaoruko Moeta in a dormitory with fellow professional manga artists from shoujo and shounen magazines.

Meaning....I'm sold.
