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.

Anyways, might check this out. Not much into lolis but I do appreciate good drama/romance. More information might help me decide one way or the other.

Fixed.
5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...

Rather than the loli in that image, the background seems more interesting to me.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Looks interesting enough for me to put on my PTW list, although that could change yet.
There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do.
