Cute character designs :>

Yeah, I'm definitely looking forward to this show with the premise and the director. Can't wait.

Pretty much most of the Penguindrum staff are back. Though on another note:

Quote:
One morning, Arashigaoka Academy students Kureha Tsubaki and Sumika Izumino were by themselves and saw the "Yuri Flower" that bloomed in a flower bed. The two are friends as well as lovers.


Shocked

Do we have an actual, LEGIT couple there?!

More interesting Architecture in a Ikuhara series from what I can see.

No idea on what to expect besides that, so I will wait.

That just sounds like the worst plot ever. I hope the visuals are nice. After the Penguindrum let down I have low hopes.

It's Ikuhara and Morishima. So, yes.

I was about to say that the plot sounds like a load of nonsense, but that was also true of Penguindrum and I ended up loving it so

The character designs are adorable ♥. The premise sounds awful... but it's Ikuhara, so maybe it will turn out OK.

So, is the series about lesbian schoolgirls who solve mysteries in high school with Bear Attorneys or am I completely off base? I'll still watch it since anything with Ikuhara's name on it is worth checking out.

So...Attack on Titan with bears?
Whatever, with Ikuhara plot synopses are kinda pointless. Definitely looking forward to this. The background art alone has me excited for it. I hope this gets simulcast, unlike Penguindrum.

That might be the most insane premise for an anime I've ever heard, and I've been watching anime for decades.

I'm definitely watching, though. Ikuhara earned it with Penguindrum.

I can't wait. Too bad he's not in charge of the new Sailor Moon.

I still have no idea what to expect from a narrative standpoint but Ikuhara means it's going to be amazing. After all, I've enjoyed 100% of Ikuhara's work so far
