Saw this coming. I bet the other remaining box will be Mushishi S2.

I'm anxious to see how they can adapt something with such a ridiculously huge cast into a 1 cour program....

There's 5 mains and 75 supporting girls, the ending won't be too good unless it's an open ended one.

75 support cast you say. So if a 1 cour season consists of on average 300mins mins the opening and endings which leaves 266 min of acting time. Then if we assume that the main cast gets at least half of that time to them selves (which is being generous to the supporting characters) that leave 133min time for support cast. That means if each supporting character gets the same amount of screen time then each supporting character gets no more then 2 mins of screen time in the whole show.

All in all that sounds really ridiculous and I would imagine that little to non of the support cast would even be remembered in the show.

With no male character, and thus no romance, what kind of ending are you expecting?

How did you know its going to be 75 girls?
as far as a know,there's a 60 girls in total,including the main and sub chara,ANN also listed that cast will be 60 girls.

But in twitter GF beta anime staff hinted that there'll be going to add more girls ,even if the anime already on air.
