Nothing, because quite honestly he'd probably love this, judging from Yuri Kuma Arashi.

Kinda surprised they didn't give the male character a cup size in his bio. May as well have at this point.

It's most likely a woman anyway, and will probably have the biggest tits in the cast.

That's the legendary ultimate princess form.

Anyone remember when DDs were impressive? N-cups? Really?

Sad thing is, while I can picture in my head what most of the characters would look like in real life, I don't have a mental reference for the cup sizes after D. I couldn't pick an F-cup out of a lineup, so why bother?

I might check this out. First episode will probably be rough but once things get going it could be interesting.

Lets be real here anybody who says they are watching this for story is full of it. The only difference between this and the 100 generic harem light novel adaptations is the main character is female for yuri fanservice, but otherwise this basically another generic fantasy work.

Its impressive that you know what the story will be like after just 1 episode.

But he's not totally wrong, I don't think people were looking forward to this anime for its quality of writing. That would just be a nice bonus.

Dear lord N cup breasts when the boobs get around double the size of your head you have definitely gotten past the point of sexy into just disgusting.


Those can still look quite good but the lady in question...yeah, she looks bad. She's too thin. If she were a little chubbier she'd look better. You can't just shove big-ass titties on a rail-thin body.

Her breasts also aren't being supported by her outfit, they just sag. If she actually had a damn bra (like the full version of my avatar--big-sheep-titties-warning) on she wouldn't look so bad. Actually I have no idea how that black thing even stays on her breasts, it just...hangs there? I'm not much of a fan of her design in general, it's obnoxiously trashy. Meifon is the best looking girl, cowgirls are <3 And she's half-Taiwanese? I'm legitimately surprised.


My browsers say that url you posted isn't a trusted source. Got another?

That is true, but its way to early to tell if its going to be generic harem-LN tier.
Not that I expect the story to be any special.

If this show develops Mamori's and Mirei's relationship with each other to be beyond just sexual conduct, I'll be impressed. It'll still be a trashy show, but at least it's a cut above mindlessness.
