Have you even watched it? It's hardly yaoi and even when it is, it makes fun of it.
This anime is a self-conscious parody of the magical girl genre.
I really wonder what "disgusts" you that much

What about it disgusts you, specifically? Please elaborate.

Even with summer ending, the hot springs are twice as fun and relaxing with the CHED boys stopping by for a soak. Smile

Have you even WATCHED this anime, let alone the 1st season even? I hope it isn't the fact that fanservice that involves the GUYS disgusts you or something, because if it's the latter, then I would find that a gross form of double standards (naked women=OKAY! Naked guys=NOT OKAY! Yet nevermind that there is barely ANY naked guy fanservice for the women's gaze in anime so much!)
And beside, Binan-kou is a parody of the magical girl genre, and there is only BL baiting (and parodying of those tropes). Nudity is only reserved for the bathhouse scenes and transformation scenes which is REALLY COMMON for magical girl shows.

On topic: They've been doing the Oedo Onsen collaboration for a while (the commercials for it started when the second season started. The first time, they collaborated was when the anime was halfway ending in it's first season). I always wanted to go during their collaborations, but the travel distance and price kind of keep me from going there.
I think I might consider buying the CD, since I loved music for it and was waiting for a music soundtrack of this show. (And really 2,500 yen for me is a good price, considering how expensive CDs are here in Japan if they are singles or just an album with very few songs).

All the En-chans all the time for me, please!!!!!1

Io looks good (different) with that headband. He looks more eye-candy worthy to me.

I wouldn't mind a third season. When this first came out, my expectation was really low. It surprised me how campy and entertaining it actually is. The second season was a bit slow, but that last episode was worth the slowness. I wonder if Kinokuniya will carry this or if they can order it for me. They've ordered books for me before, but not CDs.
