| "Meganebu", a series of otome drama CDs produced by Studio Deen since December 2011, will get a TV anime adaptation which will air from this October. The story revolves around a group of 5 eyeglasses wearing young men and their relationship. So far, three drama CDs have been released. On July 12th, there will be an online event on Nico Nico Douga for an announcement with further details. Studio: Studio Deen Director: Yamamoto Soubi Character Design: Nakajima Atsuko Series Composition: Akao De Story: Souma Akira is the club president of Meganebu and he loves eyeglasses with a passion. Kamatani Mitsuki always wears a smile on his face but his excessive adoration of Souma is leading some to see him having a double personality. Hachimine Takuma just loves sweets and enjoys a warm and fuzzy atmosphere. And then there is Minabe Yukiya, who is cool, shy, a bit naive and does not have many friends. Finally there is Kimata Hayato who joins Meganebu as a temporary member and really wants to get along with everyone but instead always results in awkwardness. The story revolves around these five guys as they go about their daily life.

| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
Screencap from the Drama CD website (before it went down) The cast as in the Drama CD: Tachibana Shinnosuke Mizushima Takahiro Kondou Takashi Morita Masukazu Namikawa Daisuke |

| Oh,that seems.. Original? I usually like otome so I'll watch this. |

symbv said: There are two "so far". Redundant.So far three drama CDs have been released so far. And I'll pass on this show. Don't think I'll like it. |
 |
| I don't really liked the drawing style but... OMG GLASSES INSTANT WATCH |
| Otome title with glasses: an interesting combination. I would say the character design is pretty good. This is not my thing but I guess many people will watch just for the desgin alone. |
 |
| Not interested. What is a glasses club even supposed to do? |

| This will depend on the first episode to determine whether I'll watch it fully or not. Oh a few character designs from ANN of the characters: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2013-06-27/meganebu-anime-about-glasses-wearing-boys-to-air-in-october |

| As a lover of megane characters, I am definitely going to watch this. I'm already getting pretty excited, ahaha.. |
| Cross my heart and hope to die I promise that I will never lie and if my promise ever does go I give to you my eternal soul! |
| Hey, glasses are cool and guys are cool. Guys wearing glasses are extra cool. Sure why not, I'll watch it. It might be some brainless fun, here's to hoping the guys are actually funny. Fall season sure seems to be tad bit weird. |
symbv said: Same season as KuroBas 2nd season LOL I can already hear girls screaming. |
| This is soooooooooooooooooooooooo nice! I don't know why but I got so excited about megane (probably because I'm a megane fetish without knowing it myself). + the fact that NamiDai's part of the casts. |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Meh, I'm not really fond of megane guys, though it has some good seiyuus... And anime without a heroine aren't that bad :D As long as it won't have one, of course. |
  |
| Why are they all wearing jumpsuits? And the shoes on the last guy.... The designs are nice though. |
 |
| I don't have a thing for glasses, but I'll watch it at the very least for the voices~ |
| Sooo many Otome series getting animated recently! Not that I am complaining, I just hope they aren't another Amnesia. (Hope that doesn't offend anyone) |
 |
| hold on, if it's an otome, then where's the female heroine? It looks more like a slice of life to me lol |
| MUST RESIST GLASSES FETTISH. ;_; Will maybe watch because (1) Its not an otome game adaption this time, and (2) hot guys with glasses. Cannot resist. |
 |
| Wait wait wait, so this Meganebu anime about bishies wearing glasses was originally a drama CD...so how do you know they wear glasses? |
The Cart Driver <-- My awesome anime blog |
| No thanks, I'm tired of this kind of anime. |

| symbv, I think you should edit the original post and tell people KyoAni is animating this, just to see how quickly people come and start trash talking it purely because it isn't cute glasses girls. |

phoenixalia said: Indeed it is SoL but I also put it under Otome CD category. I think it depends on what you mean by Otome. Perhaps you are thinking of Otome game where one girl may engage in romance relationship with a bunch of guys (in various routes)? From my understanding, Otome means a work that appeals to girls who find romantic appeals from a bunch of male characters in it but it does not necessarily mean there are romantic relationships shown in the work itself. ]It's not an otome. At least, there's no female character in sight so I don't think so. I think it's an SoL. And in this Otome CD wiki, Meganebu is given an entry for example: http://wikiwiki.jp/otomecd/?%A1%D6%A5%E1%A5%AC%A5%CD%A5%D6%A1%AA%A1%D7%A5%C9%A5%E9%A5%DECD%20Vol.1 |

| Oh, more otome... But this one no catches my attention u.u I'll give this a try, one episode maybe... |
| This looks quite interesting. Nice character designs with a bunch of different types of characters wearing eyeglasses. More of a male SoL I suppose? Which is kind of rare and appealing. |
| Oh yes. I loved the Drama CDs and the guys are all so adorable. I never thought that this would get an anime adaptation. This is the best news that I've gotten all year. Megane characters are the best. |
 |
| Hmm, glasses. Sounds interesting. |
 |
| Eh... why not? I already decided I was gonna give Free! a try so might as well try this. |
 |
| Glasses club? I normally like to watch otomes as long as the heroine isn't just standing in the background like decoration. |
 |
| An anime just about bishies wearing glasses!! My wish is finally granted! My megane-fetish self is overjoyed. Also it shows all the characters fully and voice actors here: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2013-06-27/meganebu-anime-about-glasses-wearing-boys-to-air-in-october |

| Guys wearing glasses? I'm in! |
| Definitely watching. Megane boys delicious~ |
| Need to make new sig. Soon. Maybe. |
| Did someone say glasses? I'll just watch this and see how it turns out |
Alone on a Friday night? Remember that DIO did nothing wrong! |
| I'm indifferent with or with out glasses but I just love the character designs plus it's doesn't seem to be one of those Reverse harems so I'm most likely watch this in the future. (^ v ^) |
| Glasses. Lovely... Those designs are really nice. I'll probably check it out |
