LOL, when I first read the description for a moment I imagined it was about a fat swordsman. Oh yeah, anime... ample has to mean tits. Just the kanji in the title are ridiculous enough. Demonic Breasts (or Witch's Milk) Secret Sword Story. I doubt historicity is the only thing that will be loose.

Here's a description of the manga:

In this current era, breasts mean everything. If you have breasts, you are guaranteed wealth and popularity. If you lack them, you are rarely considered "human". Members of the Manyuu Clan help raise the future big breasts. Written on a secret scroll possessed by the clan, there is said to be various techniques on how to grow big and beautiful breasts.

Chifusa is to be successor of the clan. However, she takes the secret scroll and runs away with it, hoping to fight against the cruel world that the Manyuu Clan has created...

All I can say is... Rolling Eyes

Sounds awful.
It'll probably get licensed by the time the first episode airs.

In a world where a bad back means power.

Step 1. G Cups
Step 2. ?????
Step 3. Power

I can't even imagine the artist even bothered drawing a single male in this manga. Pretty much like Queen's Blade.

Needless to say, I can't wait for this. Shocked

Reminds me of a T-shirt I saw last year that had "Please Tell Your Breasts to Stop Staring at my Eyes" written on it.

Great. Another anime with oversized boobs. Obviously targetted as a man's anime.

You know what? I'm kinda excited for this lol It sounds like a pure fan-service show but the summary makes me wonder.. And I'm guessing this will be for laughs as well? 'Cause I hate when stories like this tries to take itself serious in anyway (For example, "Seikon no Qwaser").

I think I might've read the first couple chapters for s**t and giggles somewhere a while back....

Yeah, I don't think this show will take itself particularly seriously; will probably be as quasi-serious as whatever bit I know of Queen's Blade. Although there actually are male characters in this manga set in feudal/warring-states era (?) Japan.... one of the main characters is male even. But as expected by the nature of such a manga, there are plenty of seedy and lecherous men here...

The historical story is set in a parallel Taihei Edo period and follows Chifusa, an amply porportioned sword fighter in the Manyū clan.


Are the Manyū clan circus freaks or something?

This is basically Jungle De Ikou II, same message that anime tried to convey.
