Very happy to hear this!

I'm honestly enjoying this show, even though I'm obviously NOT the target audience. But it's nice to see a pre-teenage romance / puberty / slice-of-life story for a change. Much better than the nothing-ever-happens shounen romance formular (though there are exceptions).

The super deformed style is also among the cutest I have seen so far in anime.

The main characters are the same age as the target demographic. This is a kid's show.

I agree Smile
I also find the show to be a refreshing change over the numerous copy-paste high-school romance (and at times, "romance").

Seems interesting. Hopefully, I'll still remember this, when it comes out.

There is nothing wrong in watching kid's shows. As a father, I ended up watching lots of kids shows, some that even made me despair of the TV animation industry in the United States. I am watching the new PowerPuff Girls, because I watched them with my daughter when she was young. I still enjoy SpongeBob SquarePants.

And now I am watching kid's shows with my grandchildren. There shouldn't be any type of stigma in liking to watch kid's shows. If they are well made and not dumbed down they can be quite enjoyable.
