You always come to threads of anime where you clearly aren't the target audience just to be salty lmao

We put a ".", at the end of a sentence.

Wow, dude called you out so hard all you could do was resort to being a grammar nazi lmao. No actual comeback at all, at least try my man.

needs more naked anime men

Yes, I agree.

This looks ridiculous, but I will definitely watch it just because of the VAs. What a great cast!

The cast is great!

Lol when I first saw all the naked men in the poster, I mistook the anime title as "The Manservice."
Hmm I'm not really into the art style. When skinny ass men are drawn with such a defined six pack, it looks so off. Like when skinny ass women are drawn with oversized boobs. Hard to say no when two of my top favorite VAs (Mamoru Miyano and Yuuichi Nakamura) are in the main cast though. I'll probably at least check out the first episode just to see what the show is about.

I also don't understand what the old man and skinny guy doing there. All other men are so sexy and cool! I will watch it for sure!

Except mamo-chan & morikawa, all of them are worked together in MHA, so we can the heroic build or villain build if this anime had connected with MHA.
And also, except nazuka & nakamura, the rest of them are worked together in KNY
Or maybe this anime has related with dumbbell anime aka onegai muscle, so imagine Ai Fairouz also join in this anime with some bodybuilders, like Kinnikun Nakayama, Reika Saiki & Yokokawa Naotaka

Once upon a time, I binged all of 3Hz's anime in a row. Seems a lot of people dislike them, or something?

Of the series that existed when I binged their entire catalogue (which was back when their last release was Chidori RSC), Chidori RSC was the only one that I thought had terrible animation quality. If the animation here ends-up having even a fraction of the quality of FLIP FLAPPERS or Princess Principal, then I have no worries in that regard

It's so rare to see ecchi fanservice with muscular men. No male nipples tho :(. 😕
I don't care if this flops. This will appeal to no one but me jk.

Edit: they got the voice actor for Yoshikage Kira in this thing? Goddamn...

Yes, they all are so sexy and have amazing bodies!!

I just wish I knew what the anime was about, but this is the most blatantly revealing trailer in anime that is most likely isn't ecchi or hentai.

I agree, I was shocked in a positive way when I saw this poster.

Me as the black guy in the middle.

I have absolutely no idea what this show is even going to be about, but this has made my day. You go Cygames, keep making cool original anime. Even if they're all because of mobile games that will never release in the west.

Edit: Certainly an eye catching teaser visual if nothing else. Whatever that squirrel is.

Yes, I agree with you. This news also made my day! And this squirrel too.

This poster is pretty gay ngl.

Maybe they plan to cover many females by releasing this. I also like the poster, they looks handsome and cool except old man and one guy near him.

Adampk said:
Are they going to nudist beach after a good workout!

Surely they will. And not only to the beach I suppose judging on their appearances on the image.

Piromysl said:
Cygames is on roll with anime lately, nice.
But why are they all naked?

Because they are sportsmen.

Wtf is even the plot for this show?

About cool and fitness men who spend their free time together, I think.

Why doesn’t it surprise me that these are again people registered after 2020?

Another Cygames project, so I expect that type of absurd humor that you see in Zombieland and Akiba Maid War.

Studio 3Hz is kinda of an ok studio, most people who hate on them haven't actually seen Healer Girl.

Absolutely stacked VA cast holy moly.

Yeah, that always been a guarantee of quality ...

Is this gonna be a mobile game a week after the first episode is out ? And closes its servers one year exactly after anime is done ?

You always come to threads of anime where you clearly aren't the target audience just to be salty lmao
