The big question is, if you don't like sports, is this show worth watching just for the butts?

Because those are some great butts.

The second one looks gorgeous all around.
The third ones's face though. Ehhh.

. . . can they make figures like this of guys from non-sports shows? Like pretty boys from action shows? There are those two K ones from the same maker as these, with the beautiful effects but their faces and hair didn't look so great. (Misaki's legs though <3). They also did Seraph but... same. The middle one here looks a bit improved on that part, though.
But someone needs to do Kuroh from K and make his face and hair perfect.

Hmm... so I guess this show is definitely going to be for fujoshi. I'm curious if there will be anything else there for me to enjoy though. I love rugby, so I am still mildly interested.

I'm sure 55% of the intended audience watch sports anime for the butts. Most uniforms leave enough for the imagination. Wink

Quite rare to see figures get that sculpted look; I love the roughness of the hair and the S curve of their posture. Really digging the second character (the blonde); I hope his personality matches his sweet demeanor. Number three looks like Dio delightfully ripping off someone's face...IOW he's going to be the fan favorite. -__-

Hoooh my god, I almost died laughing at the last one, that face is so disturbing Laughing

Wait, THAT'S the protagonist? The shy character for once? I love this even more.
I predict many doujinshi with him in the future lol

But if you let it "all out" during a sporting game of rugby, the lack of protection will soon give you something to dearly regret.

The 3rd guy there looks like he's there attempting to gain the most popularity with his jerk look, like Yowapeda's Arakita. And...what's with their bodies, especially that big butt? Confused

I don't see any dudes kissing or groping all up on each other, so I'm failing to see how they're definitely going for BL fans/fujoshi. More like they're aiming at people who appreciate the male form or just female otaku in general.

I'm probably gunna put money down on the blond. He looks pretty good.

Whether or not they made it for fujoshi is irrelevant, they'll still be all over it. That main character legit looks like he's drawn in the style of a BL mangaka I know, I just can't put my finger on it.

It being explicit isn't necessary. A big part of that fandom is doujinshi and imagining what otherwise doesn't occur in canon. I would consider fujoshi to be female otaku who appreciate the male form more than most people and this is giving them plenty of bait. Anyway, I didn't mean that as a bad thing. It's no different than shows targeting any other segment of the community. Don't feel like you have to defend yourself.

The anime isn't even out yet, it's going all out a bit early.
