YES YES YES YES YES YES!!!
This has to be the best news of the year! Well, the best news for moe fans at least. If these get animated (need I even use "if"? lol) I'll be a very, very happy camper. w00tz! |

Seriously though, while I indulge in fantasies of anime and manga characters, I've never been able to grasp the sheer depths of obsession some people get to. At the end of the day, none of these characters are real. I can gush or squee about a gorgeous anime girl but I know she isn't real. (No, really, I do know. I just don't like it.) I honestly can't understand why anyone would freak out over a character having a boyfriend. If you're REALLY that upset, go draw a doujinshi with a self-insert author avatar who woos your favorite character away from her boyfriend! That is, after all, as close as any living person can get to being in a relationship with a fictional character. Note: I have never drawn or written anything where I placed myself in a relationship with a character. I'm too much of a shipper and too little of a Casanova. Purely from a fan point-of-view, I like this idea. Very often when I read a series set in high school that ends in graduation, I find myself wondering what adventures the characters might have after that point. Nice to know for at least one series, I'll get to find out! |

Hmm... There are a few titles that KyoAni is credited for "Animation Production" in the ANN Encyclopedia that I don't recognize or happen to have seen, so I don't know where they start or finish with respect to schooling. I've got Funi's cheap set of Kanon, but I haven't watched it yet. Lucky Star! didn't make it to college, IIRC. Haruhi and Clannad + After Story aren't based upon manga. So, which manga was it? I'll look forward to seeing college-aged K-On! girls eventually. I'm not sure if I'll check out the scanlations, so I may have to wait for Yen to get to the new stories... |

Ugh, this is gonna be like Saved by the Bell: The College Years. This can't end well. 'Cause at some point, they'd have to grow up. You can't be moe when you're finally acting all growed up.

Yui managed to get into college? I hope they aren't all majoring in music, what a bore that would be. Plus I bet Yui don't know sh*t all about music theory.
As far as I know there are no all-girls colleges so they have no excuse for having no male presence. I second the idea of them getting boyfriends The fan reaction has the potential to be way more entertaining than the show itself =P |

Ohh, you'll love to see the otaku squirm! But didn't the anime confirm Yui and the gang going to an all-girl private college? Not much chances of hanging out with guys unless they decide to go clubbing. |

The K-On girls went to an all-girl high school. I bet they'll be going to an all-girl university. Instead of introducing male characters nobody wants to see (apart from little brothers), they can introduce even more moe female side characters and have only girls in every scene.
There are. In Japan, anyway. |

So, pick one: K-On! A&M, ITK-on!, K-OnU!, "The University of K-On!",

You're almost like talking about the three (in)famous dojinshi by Takotuboya. |

other than Tsumugi, the other three are kind of hard to find a boyfriend when they are going to all-girl college.

Maybe I'm wrong on this, but I didn't think all of the girls were going to the same college. I'm presuming the "college girls" K-On! manga will focus on them getting together in their off hours.

Win! I'm way more excited about the highschool one with Azunyan, Ui, and Jun.
I called it a year ago, I said they should do a spin-off series with them, and it would be better than the main series. Can't wait for this, I really hope they animate it. Idk about the college years for the original gang, I'll have to wait and see to pass judgment! |

It's about time that a manga does something beyond high school. This way we all won't look like perverts. For those asking about an all-girl university in Japan. I do remember Mugi mentioning this [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan_Women's_University]Japan's Women's University[/url] as her first choice and in the end all the girls getting into here. |

Another thing about the girls going to college is that we get to see them in a variety of casual clothing. That manga-ka better start drafting lots of different designs!
