The monkey paw curls a finger. The show will now be set in a middle school.

On the very least it could be interesting. So I am glad he is working on anime again

Less bestiality this time, please, Ikuhara.

How about we be more specific so the monkey paw has to work harder: "All characters have to be aged 20+!"
I was not a fan of Lesbear Storm, way too over-the-top, but I liked what I saw of Penguindrum. Would definitely give Ikuhara shows a chance, just hope he tries something new.

Key image of two men's signs together...a male voice on the teaser trailer...done by the studio that did Yuri on Ice...is this Ikuhara's first-ever Boys' Love anime?!

I was already excited, but if I'm right about that, this can't come soon enough. A more male-centric Ikuhara project would be an interesting change of pace. And we can count on him to deliver something with a bit more substance than most Boy's Love anime too.

As far as anime goes, I feel Ikuhara is one of the best when it comes to puberty and adolescence. At least I remember his works really resonating with me as a kid and teen.

My favorite dude, back again. I haven't been this excited for a new project since Yurikuma!

Mappa is involved. I wonder what this series will be like. Junichi Suwabe was in the video.
