Looks like this has something for everyone, would absolutely die if they have a make-out session in either form but probably won't be allowed. I also notice that Fem-Mohiro has bigger ones, maybe Saki will be jealous? Will be hard to top CHEDCL though...

I'm not understanding how you came to the decision to wipe the thread, Mod. If it is about the first poster's comment, while a little contentious I would hardly label it as "trolling" as they posed a valid and relevant concern: a recent lack of 'serious' magical boys series. Rather than derailing the thread, the comment inspired productive commentary on previous magical boy characters (i.e. Tuxedo Mask) and series', which is a discussion that doesn't get much attention as is.

Sorry I don't mean to derail the thread myself but I am not sure where I should direct my concerns to.

From what I have read this show has a lot of potential and it has been a while since we have gotten a magical girl parody. This show will have spoiler[complex love triangles, monsters that have muscular human bodies with squirrel heads, and useless magical staffs that get used as cudgels.]

I was kind of hoping "Magical Girl Boy" was an alternate English title for Magical Trans, a manga about a high school boy who joins a magical girl club, but, after reading the description, I know this is obviously based on an entirely different manga.

Maybe "high school boys turning into magical girls" is the new "monster girls" in terms of current manga fads? (Yes, I know Cute High Earth Defense Club has already been around for a while, and we had Moldiver, Birdy the Mighty, and the Sailor Starlights back in the 1990s.)
