At this point, I seriously facepalmed.
I'm pretty sure I'll give this a shot, only to check if there is actual information about manga editing in the show. Other than that, I have zero interest. |

| My reaction was pretty much the same as the OP's. I was imagining a Bakuman type series, not a moeblob fest. |

Main character is cute but premise seems interesting in concept yet generic in execution.
....Wait, how can they be editors if they have no experience in editing?

| I hope it's as entertaining as Roman and her manga-club in Sket Dance. Those segments always crack me up. I'd watch a spin-off of them. |

bakuman + k-on = mangirl.  anyway i like dogaboo quite a bit and the designs look cute so i'll give it a shot. also CR news mentioned this will air next year which makes sense since only the first volume is out. |

Mangirl... Ladyboy... It's all the same! ^^;
Yeah, when I read the headline, it took me a moment to realize that I mentally mispronounced the word... I still haven't bothered to look at the article, though. |

| Yeah, the title works a lot better in Japanese than it does in English. |

A blurb on the magazine's website says their shooting for a 2013 release.
I'll be glad to see the first episode before I pass judgment like some others in this thread. As long as the comedy is good, I'm in. |

Yeah, but the word "man" can also be slang for a certain female panty-parts.
But yeah, they are really scraping the bottom of the barrel coming up with new anime. |

This an adaption. They didn't come up with anything.
I understand your point, though. They don't even adapt the good manga, they just go with what will sell among the Otaku the most. |
