Oh god, there are some many things that made me laugh here...

I'd watch that anime about couple hotels tho.

Obviously the brother in law also has boobs, obviously.

Lol, senran kagura for best joke.

LOL, Nisekoimonogatari. Maybe Kaiki could finally make Raku head towards a decision. Anime smile

Some of those other jokes were pretty funny too.

Hoping the Senran Kagura joke is real, though.

The lack of male characters makes my jimmies rustling.

And that WUG PV is 2deep4me. Minyamiii Anime smallmouth

Oh man, that Mushi-Shi ~Perfect Love~ poster looks absolutely amazing. Laughing I'd watch the hell out of that for the lulz.

I love the creativity for April Fool's Day.

It's Ikaruga's "step-brother" rather than "brother-in-law", isn't it?

Some of the videos aren't playing for me. Country locks.

I love how the folks from Working! even got Kana Asumi to help with their prank. That reminds me of their fake season 2 preview from a few years back. Seeing how well the humor still works makes me look forward even more to the final season ...

Sherlock Hound in Dog version of Dai Gyakuten Saiban is just amusing.

"Princess warrior Cinderella" actually sounds like something that could be part of the current run of Precure.

I love seeing these every year. I laughed a lot at the Nisekoimonogatari and the Working!! game because of the effort put into the videos. Also, the fundoshi parts were hilarious, and I'm looking foward to the upcoming Great Man movie as well. Laughing

There's an even better Rumbling Hearts April Fool's / 15th Anniversary gag (hopefully to be included in part 2): a browser-based tower defense game in which you need to deploy characters to delay protagonist Takayuki such that he's late for his date with Haruka and she gets hit by a car while waiting, the pivotal event that kicks off the main plot of the visual novel and anime.

EDIT: Also, the lyrics of the Wake Up, Girls! song have been changed from "Tachiagare!" (stand up!) to "Meshiagare!" (c'mon!).

EDIT 2: In the linked Rumbling Hearts article, the picture of the crowd cheering for Akane includes a Laser-Class BETA from âge's Muv-Luv.

And for a limited time they're adding Ikaruga's...brother-in law??? LOL!! Man, that's a new one. Any women want to be a brother-in law?

They should make Professor Layton vs Sherlock Hound a reality.
