Damn the pv looks great. It's quite surprising that A-1 pictures is making this. I assumed it's gonna be picked by project no 9 like every other romcom light novels these days.

Hmm. So its airing in july.

Tono hikaru is in tenshi tsuki, so we'll see

Wakayama shion again, though I have to say I dont know much about her either. Terasawa I know even less about, by which I mean literally my first time hearing of her.

Honestly from the cover alone there's no way to tell if the plot is actually going to work or not. Even the synopsis gives me a headache, I just hope.
I mean I suppose it looks ok to give it a try, it's either going to work orr not. Not sure how july is starting to stack up though so by the time july actually happens

The trick with a lot of these anime is that the main dude needs to be good too, the girls can be great but it all boils down to the mc

@Old_School_Akira Female characters are the selling point of most straight romances and are therefore expected to be seen on posters. But even if we forget about it, female characters on a poster still don't make a show yuri.

They have put a lot of effort into this one. So much in-house staff is working on this. I'm very happy. I will be watching it no matter what.

Sasuga A-1.

I almost thought this was a yuri because there is no male on the poster.

Not the protagonist name literaly being "Warm water" lmao
Seems cute, I'm looking forward to watching it.

Also, I agree with @Omarumba : the summer atmosphere is pretty strong with this one and I'm all for it.

Hmm, almost all the VAs involved are either complete newbies or have only started getting significant roles in the last year or two. Was this project intended as a showcase for potential stars?

i can't tell who best girl is from the PV alone.... damn...

That's why I love Aniplex's work is that most of the creators put a lot of effort into conveying a seasonal atmosphere in the show that you can't get a feel for in a manga or novella. Kaguya-sama is like that, in addition to the spirit of drama and the spirit of romance, the atmosphere of either free summer or beautiful spring was clearly felt, and when combined with the carefree high school season, it's kind of a powerful punch.

I envy the schoolchildren for their lives.

As for the news on "Make Heroine ga Oosugiru!", a strong lineup of creators is clearly expected.
