There is much more, not only glasses. This is how you draw attention to your manga, when you change characters, only so that it can lure fujoshi.

Kou's personality and appearance is nearly identical to me, an introvert glasses gaming addict that sometimes was mistaken as a boy so I like her a lot. I even have the same height. I didn't realize I can be treated as fujobait.
BS: I hate fujoshi with a pasion.

I hate to admit I don't read the manga and I freaked out reading the spoiler.
I still think Kou looks like the perfect uke from some BL manga.

Ahh alright then. Yeah I went to go and read the manga btw myself since I was working on some stuff on Sony Vegas and got bored for a bit, and from what I've read and seen from the designs it looks like the manga designs but that it's a bit different in terms of translating them. But it looks good on its own.
I think your biggest worry is how they'll translate this because even if its good on paper some certain parts or looks of the characters can be weird in animated form. Maybe I'm over exaggerating it but this is what I am getting here.
I think at the very least the director has a good track record wise, as he did worked on something prior with A-1 which funny enough it was a pretty funny show too. As far as that goes I'm sure he'll handle the comedy skits well... most of the stuff he did were pretty neat.
Edit: I just realized he worked on Amagami as well Lol, which was the last thing I've watched from the track record on his end. Which is surprising.

The PV looks fine I guess, the backgrounds look possibly cheapish, but they were never the strong point of the manga anyway. Characters seem to look OK in animation so far, but there hasn't been much showcased so far. They respected the character designs, which was what I was the most worried about. I think the director will also be able to handle the show well. If they mess it up, they'll need to try really hard to do it.
The voice acting will be the strongest point in this for sure.
Maybe Momose Narumi looks kind of weird and iffy and her voice actress isn't exactly to my liking, but I'm sure things will be fine.
I need more animation to be showcased, which will happen in the next PV probably. I don't know how I feel about the fading noses on the characters on further away shots, it's kind of questionable, but if it's handled well, it won't be too bothering, I guess.
Edit: The mangaka does do the fading nose thing as well, so I guess they wanted to respect it. It is sort of awkward in animation.

It's impossible to replicate the character designs in animation perfectly anyway, since things need to be able to work in motion.
I was really worried that they would disrespect the character designs and change them up significantly, in a negative way. They kept the slenderness of the characters and the very thin eyes and they are paying attention to the small details in the character designs, which is a good sign. Hopefully we get a lot of fun expressive shots and pieces of animation since the characters are very expressive.

It is a romantic comedy with 3 couples. Where did you get that fujobait idea? You are going way off the mark.
The glasses one is a shy and timid gamer girl while the boy is very outgoing. She is into gaming so she doesn't care much about her appearance. An introvert girl.
The voluptuous one is more alpha than any other character in the show.

I LOVE THE MANGA SO MUCH!
I'M SO HAPPY THEY'RE MAKING AN ANIME OF IT
THE VA's SO FAR ARE GOOD TOO
The manga is still ongoing though, so idk how the anime is gonna go.
but it has a gekkan shoujo nozaki-kun vibe to it, but with working adults and more stable romance instead of 50 different misunderstandings.

That female looks like a dude, and of course she will have some ship with other dude (the blonde one), and because she looks like a man its a fujobait, but it's safe because she's chick. That's a fujobait. The blonde dude is the "toy boy" and the glasses one (the female) will be the alpha dude.

It's just probably the female being a fujoshi, that doesn't equate to a fujobait show.

I had to look up again for the definition of fujobait and I don't believe it's not really the case.
Even if it was the case I don't really see it as much of an issue since 2/3 of the pairs are female/male (looks wise) while 1/3 of them isn't that much. Even I had to look a bit.
But that's a silly thought of mine. I just thought that bit of complaint goes outrageous but it's more of if a show has 1 pair that looks like that it's most likely going to be a skip.
Not saying that you're wrong because I know you aren't into those type of series, and granted as much as I disagree that's really you... I just don't see it in this, honestly.
