In the words of Ray Wylie Hubbard's song Snake Farm, anything that just sounds nasty, "Pretty much is".

This sounds like an odd one. Still that pic kind of gives me hope. Still I've been terribly disappointed with the titles CR has announced so far.

Looks like it came from the 90s...interesting. The female MC's design is pretty hot, I'll say.

Looking at the more limited region rights, Crunchyroll is starting to announce their sublicenses for the year.

Crunchyroll often announces sublicenses later on in the announcement season, especially if there is one of the bigger cons a week into the announcement period.

One more box added, Crunchyroll formally has 30 titles ~ if I understand correctly that one of the titles is a shorty, it would take four more boxes to get to 30 series with normal length episodes.

Looking forward to this. Romantic comedies need to be more daring and less generic, even if they have to be weird to do so. We don't need another Princess Lover or Lamune on our plates.

Well, let's hope this ends up better than the manga. It started out unique and interesting, but then a horrible character arc settles in, ruins their relationship, and now the MC is so desperate to simply touch Urabe that it doesn't only border but completely crosses over in creepily obsessed. All forward momentum in their relationship halted and even the drool bend of the story has gotten tired and nothing new came of it. Should this anime manage to actually write a real story, it will be instantly better that the downward spiral of the manga.

If I'm confusing him someone else, apologies in advance, but I believe he is an anti-simulcast, anti-sub troll.

Except for that one time they released 5 centimeters per second. Still, there's no way in hell they actually do a release for a new show.

Anyway, good pickup. I was just about to cancel my membership, but this made me rethink.

He is.
And I usually just leave it alone when pops off in R1 threads, but man, how dumb do you have to be, to post that in a CR thread.

It sounds quirky, instead of moe, so I'm in.
