I seem to recall that licensing shows before they air didn't work out all that well for Geneon back in the day; then again, they didn't have simulcast/streaming as an option.

High school boy surrounded by warrior women-that's really new. Usually they try to at least come up with some new "element" but the description of this show really sounds like more of the same old same old. While this does not absolutely guarantee it will suck, the odds of greatness are small.

As long as it's similar to Kimiaru (lots of slapstick/parody with only moderate levels of fanservice) I'll probably be watching this. Usually with these shows I can tell with just the first episode if I should continue it or not.

If you want it dubbed, then watch the streams. They look at the numbers when they are determining whether it will get a dub or not.

That fake English title, man. Just about any straight or loose translation of the original sounds much better it ironically. "Like seriously, gimme some lovin' now!" or something along those lines has a much better ring to it

Yup, same here.

"Many outlets" suggests that it might not be a TAN exclusive, since TAN streaming it on their site and on Hulu is not a very plausible "many". Who else, though ~ they've always left it for TAN to announce their own streams, even when they only lead the TAN announcement by a short period, so it seems likely they are leaving the streaming partners to announce streaming on their own preferred timeline.

Just by looking at the pic and looking at the manga:

Main Guy: pretty much Chris Patton
Tall Long Haired Girl: Luci Christian, maybe Shelley Calene-Black
Stuckup Blonde Foreigner: Jennifer Boone
Purple/Blue Hair Girl: Maggie Flecknoe
Hyperactive Redhead: toss-up between Brittney Karbowski and Melissa Davis

Not sure about the fifth girl, but anyone's guess, really.

This is, of course, IF it gets a dub.

It could also be here on ANN, provided by Sentai.

That said, I don't recall if TAN has posted any of their simulcasts to Hulu until after the season had ended.

Now what would be really interesting is if one of those outlets was Netflix. While they do have some subtitled anime, a simulcast would be something completely new for them.

"Many outlets" could also include digital downloads via iTunes, Amazon, etc..

The way the article is worded, they would not necessarily have to make it available to each and every outlet in October, so long as they eventually made it available to "many".
