The manga is awesome (Sadly I had to see it online )
But this is yet another title that has a chance to be an awesome anime with no possible USA release because of the weirdness of it's material  |

Yeah, as if America or anyone else for that matter doesn't make 'weird' stuff or pervy stuff. For God's sake, one of the first thing you see in an AMERICAN movie about giant robots is Megan Fox's ass on a bike. I've seen American stuff so weird and even out of place that they make MGX look like a cute Disney movie.
Ya know, the fact that it is 'weird' is what caught my interest, okay I draw a line somewhere but sometimes the way its executed is worth reconsidering and giving a shot. This is labeled as ecchi even by anime fans but the way I see it, the amount of fanservice is much more tamed than heaps of other shows, anime or non-anime.
Sounds like Xenophobia, if the Japanese make weird stuff, they're sickos but if we [insert nationality] do it, there's a good reason for it. Double standard bullcrap |

But do you think that licenser's will buy an anime about "Drool-sensed romance"?
DOn't get me wrong I love the manga, but I just don't see VIZ or anyone seeing the selling point in this one  |

I can see Seven Seas or Yen Press picking it up... (if the anime is popular here). Heck, even Flowers of Evil got licensed by Vertical and that manga has a very twisted relationship(s). |
