The best thing about the Bungo Stray Dogs one is that there will absolutely certainly be fanfic with the exact same premise once the show is released.

Yeah. I would totally watch Magical Girl Love Warrior Rory.

Make it so!


I can see that being quite violent. I'd be fine with that if it were real.

is very highly probably NOT a joke. They put a lot of effort into that PV and they have a history of making REAL announcements on April Fools. The rest of the things they said are very obviously a joke and the Planetarian announcement just doesn't fit the mood. It's not even funny. Obviously there's still a chance it could be a joke, but it would be in extremely poor taste. I think the joke is making people think it's a joke. We'll see in 16+ hours I guess.


I sure hope you're right about that. For a joke, that trailer looked pretty legit. And I would love to see an anime adaptation of Planetarian. O_O

It... it might be real?

This is just where they give you a dollop of hope, so as to make the cruel truth stab just a bit deeper, right?

That's it, I'm spending April 1st under the bed. The world isn't safe.

I would totally watch a Godzilla/Evangelion crossover. I'd pay good money, too.

The Fate x Osomatsu san one is on the Fate website, not the Osomatsu san website. The Osomatsu san website has changed to Osomatsu kun. Also the Osomatsu san Hesokuri Wars mobile game has changed to Hijirisawa Shounosuke Hesokuri Wars with the main visual changed.

I wish the Pretty Sammy movie announcement was real; I'd love to see that spin-off as a movie!

While these are jokes I think that they creators and studios should look at making some of these things a reality. The "Gate" and "is this order a rabbit?" in particular.
