There is still no confirmation of whether this is an April Fool's joke.

It has quite the To LoveRu character design... I wonder if the chara designer is the same...

Wow, there are people getting excited over this. I personally think the art work looks decent.

But the studio making the anime isn't listed, and there's no release date. It's probably an April Fool's joke. People are going to be disappointed.

As to whether or not this will be any good, color my skeptical. It could be hilarious or it could be just another POS. I'll definitely check out the first ep or two to find out though.
