This is a joke right...this isn't actually real?

I mean...at least they don't hide their love of fanservice, kinda like the Senran Kagura guy

Why? Boob sell. Big boobs sell better. Never underestimate the power of overt sexism to sell figures and other goodies to otakus.

Comically oversized boobs are making a comeback. It's a good thing.

Well, isn't it sort of in the header?

I mean, it's not like WE ever turned isolated context-free action figures into a lame half-premised cartoon adventure show...

Wow that armour looks very "functional" and "protective", the kind you'd definitely want to wear into battle! Laughing

Guess this must be the "new" Queen's Blade? Rolling Eyes

I've given up on criticizing this shit, I can't find a point anymore. Instead I'm just amused that even that key visual-ish picture has shitty as hell character designs. Easy to imagine how derpy the actual episodes would look.

Well, let's see how this will go. I'll watch it for the laughable titty physics as always.

Big boobs don't always sell, plenty of ecchi shows flop. I won't be surprised at all if this flops, especially since it's airing with stuff like toLoveru which already has a large disc buying fanbase.
