| Sounds kinda sus based on that picture and no synopsis yet. |
 |
Another show built around the ambiguous queer tension between its two male leads..  |
| The title sounds dumb so i might watch it. |
"Get your tentacles off me or ill make calamari out of your manhood" -Mirai Nikki Dub |
| So basically it's just Lupin III, but what if the main cast of Lupin III was just yellow car, Lupin, Jigen and Anya from Spy x Family. |
| Really interesting. |
 |
| So basically it looks like some Spy x Family type beat that tries to jump in on the money and strike the iron while it's hot while adding some potential BL twist to it. The concept art is pretty nice though. I really got mixed feelings about this one but we'll see how it turns out. |
| โ |
| Set to air in Winter 2023 while being announced at the tail end of October doesn't sound like a recipe for success. Even if it airs in February that's a bit soon, but I guess we don't know how long they've been working on it. |

| Looks gay. Hope it's BL |

Old_School_Akira said: Looks gay. Hope it's BL I hope so too. At least some tenderness between these two guys. |

| reverse gender buddy cop like Lycoris Recoil? |

Hope it's BL Rypherjo said: >The story of Buddy Daddies follows Kazuki Kurusu, a criminal contractor / coordinator who lives with his best friend, Rei Suwa, a professional assassin who has been raised from childhood to be a contract killer. Kazuki is outgoing and loves gambling and women, while Rei is a man of few words who spends his off time playing video games. One day, the two buddies end up caring for Miri Unasaka, a four year old girl whose father is a mafia boss, after Miri accidentally wanders into a firefight in a hotel while looking for her father. I doubt it will be BL based on what Rypherjo stated, but one can still hope for tenderness! Also, it's Kouki Uchiyama so I'm in it for his voice for sure :D |

| This is just Spy x Family but with bromantic undertones. Sounds interesting. |

| I love how people are immediately claiming it's LGBT just because two main leads of the same gender. XD |
 |
| buddy daddies? lol |
| Looks interesting. Hopefully it doesn't end up being a BL. |
Piromysl said: I love how people are immediately claiming it's LGBT just because two main leads of the same gender. XD Same here, lmao. Rob-B-Hood is the first shoe that came to my mind, and if it’s anything like that, this should be entertaining. |

| Hot dudes! I'll love them. |
| BANZAI NIPPON. Nippon is the Land of freedom. Nippon is the Land of Peace. Nippon is the Land of Justice and Prosperity. In Nippon, we trust. We love Nippon, we love Anime. Anime love us, Nippon love us. ๆฅๆฌ |
| I hope it won't be using the child to get the two male leads together, I've always hated such a setting, Hataraku Maou-sama got really annoying because of Alas Ramus shipping Maou and Emi, same with Greta shipping Wolfram and Yuuri in Kyo Kara Maoh, I really do enjoy Spy x Family though, Anya being aware of the situation makes it all better. |
  |
| Spy X Family but gay? |
Nah, girl baiting is the commen initial trick of even actual acknowledged gay shows eg - The Case Files of Jeweler Richard or Samurai Flamenco. I remember Mo Dao Zu Shi had same exact description for male mc. So it's nothing new. Though this one is most likely a mild gay bait rather than actual bl since it's a anime original. Probably will play off like millionaire detective. People who have watched Tokyo 24-ku may have better idea |

I get where you're coming from but really the timing is just perfect, also considering that SxF hit it off amazingly well and is extremely popular right know. Also, the premise feels way too similar. Name another series that uses this very same trope btw and was before SxF, I really am curious. |

Maybe, we don't know it yet. I wrote in general. |

| Why does the little kid look like a devianart Sonic OC? It looks so weird. |
Kyoris said: Not anime but there's The Americans, Spy Kids, My Spy Family, Allegiance, and more. It definitely existed prior to the existence of SxF.

Yet still in the anime sense the show seems to have broken a new ground and got very popular, hence so many people reference SxF instead of any of the shows you mentioned. It's just another kind of media. |
