What is this anime about? A lot of girls is almost always a good reason for me to watch.

These uniforms look suspiciously similar to the Amagami ones. Maybe the designer is particularly fond of these colors and patterns.

So where's the dude? Because at least for me the art says "harem show" in no uncertain terms, and if this was a yuri show or the MC was one of the girls instead it would have been stated in big bold letters already.

...although, thinking about it, the marketing of a harem show is not supposed to sell the guy.

If I recall corrctly, Amagami and Amagami SS anime both don't have the male MC on the key visual either. It might even go with a similar formula as the anime as well.

Y'know, it's like... I can already picture in mind who's what by observing their overall appearance, facial expression and body language.

So from top to bottom we've got:

1) Miss Shy
2) Miss Nice
3) Miss Sly
4) Miss Confident
5) Miss Edge
6) Miss Smug

Now, like I don't talk about this all the time but looks wise... I find Miss Smug and Miss Confident to be just my type. Just sayin' man, just sayin'.

But personality wise, I think I'mma find this time's Miss Nice & Miss Confident to be more like what I'd want in a girl, once again just sayin' man, just sayin'.

In the end though, we'll just have 'tuh wait n' see how this show pans out. All I'm hopin' for are some interestin' characters and interestin' individual stories, like that's it man.

A mundane, moe schoolgirl show directed by the same guy who helmed Akame ga Kill and written by a guy who was involved in Amagami? No thanks I'll pass.

My thoughts precisely.

I want to see the guy just so that I can know I will definitely be avoiding this.

Yeah, I hate harem anime, and if this falls into that category I'll avoid it like a plague!

Totally just looks like Amagami. I'm cool with that. Amagami is pretty good. Though I hope, if they do the short arc for each girl thing, that they work on the pacing a little bit. Amagami's biggest issue was always in the last episode of an arc where it would jump from the focus couple being friends, to them being in a relationship way too quickly.

So I wonder what the plot for this is going to be?

Is it going to be a romance anime in the vein of Amagami or Photo Kano with rotating heroines and one male lead, or will it be like Kimikiss with multiple romance arcs? The visual seems to be really evoking Amagami.

Interesting that the bottom right girl seems to have a different uniform then the rest.

I enjoyed Amagami's arcs being all separate, so I hope this does similar.

Surely this will be at least 2-cour if they're going the omnibus route? Or maybe they'll have a game tie-in which you can see the other girls endings.

If they stick six girls into 12 episodes, this will be a big letdown. 24 episodes seems about right.
