Just for the record, Akira Hiiragi is a female that just likes to wear guy clothing, right?

They're revealing the measurements for her, so obviously yeah.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but are they seriously mentioning the weight of their breasts in the parentheses?

Honestly, I was going to have a heart attack when I saw a "guy" in the pictures. I love reverse traps. Love the regal looks of the new characters. I never thought I would see a DFC reverse trap in a boob-centric anime. Things just got interesting.

By the way, that pink-haired girl looks awfully like Symphogear's Maria.

Nah, this looks more polished in my opinion. Art style has this smooth look to it. I still remember the waves the trailer made in the comment section.

Guys have measurements too. What's most suspicious is that Akira is the only character without a cup size listed. It does make you wonder...

I am pretty sure this is their attempt to keep the "guy"'s real gender a secret until the episode where "he" reveals it. As for the DFC bust size, I am again pretty sure that there is a magic sarashi/bra underneath "his" shirt. That is why "he" has no cup size (and bust weight) listed yet.

Sure, but it's not like anyone gives a crap about them. At least anyone watching this show.

Most likely she's a reverse trap, until the SHOCKING reveal that she's female and actually the bustiest of them all (anime-tape can do wonders for your figure Wink ).

Valkyrie Drive -Mermaid- because anime can never have too much 'Hometown' or 'Life'. Wink

Yeah the PV left me completely speechless, what struck me most was the sheer volume of 'plot' VDM seems to exude.

Hey, some people are curious as to how much boobs can weigh. Of course, those pneumatic knockers are just big globs of fat that get the attention of a lot of people, real and not.
