If the boys were Latin-alphabet fonts:
Top row, left to right Courier (aka pretentious typewriter font) Times New Roman (double spaced, 12-point, just like your professor demands) Helvetica (generic, ubiquitous, boring as hell) Forte (bold and fun, but still readable) Edwardian script (so much better than you, peasant) Bottom row, left to right Impact (I know a memelord when I see one) Webdings (?#$!#$#%) Papyrus (look at that face. You know you already hate him) Comic Sans (ironically has no sense of humor) |

...This reminds me of all those dumb commercials featuring anthropomorphic and talking inanimate objects, specifically this one featuring a snide tree branch that had fallen on top of a parked sedan as part of a selling point for car insurance.
I'm not saying that the show will automatically be horrible. If anyone can make gold out of really stupid ideas, it's the Japanese. ...But no, seriously: This is a really, really stupid idea. |
