It looks like this is going to be a fujoshi magnet. There are bishoujos everywhere. However, it does appear to have some very good animation.

Oh, so fujoshi bait now! OK, better than moe, will give the benefit of the doubt.

As a swimmer, I'm personally really excited to see how they're gonna make this work!

Animation looks hot, but one thing that bugs me though is how they're not wearing swim caps...

No, it's just pandering to another crowd now. "It's cute boys, so it's automatically more acceptable than cute girls. Because I say so."

There's no source that says this is going to be anything more than this single CM.

I just assumed it was like any of the other 5 or 6 CMs that KyoAni has released in the last couple years.

Pandering to another crowd, yea, not as bad and obsessive as the moe crowd, so yea, BETTER.

Cute boys? Maybe, debatable. Hot boys, without doubt.

If it an anime, the series seem about swimming, so yea, better than random moe pandering.

I really hope this is a real anime and not a commercial for the studio. The anime fanbase on tumblr is going bananas over this 30 second commercial.

They scare me...

Swimming seems hardly like cute thing to do, if taken seriously of course.

Here's hoping for an anime, I don't tend to follow the Kyoto work, but I think I might watch for the eye candy alone.

It feels like Kyoto animation's take of some kind of gatorade commercial, only without the gatorade.
