| Pretty awesome preview. Looking foward to this anime. I hope it lives up to the manga, which is pretty good. I was always disappointed that Watase's manga always got terrible anime adaptations, but this one might finally change that. |
| The animation looks a bit weird imo... But I think I'll eventually get used to it! |
| This looks pretty good, I'm excited for it. I haven't seen any of Watase's other anime adaptions, but I hope this'll be good. |
chocolateXbar said: Not really. Fushigi Yugi have a good adaption in my opinion. Ayashi no Ceres don't have a good adaption only cuz they took out many important things from the manga. Fushigi Yuugi's animation was disgusting, even considering it's an old anime. Also, I absolutely loathed what they did with the characters' hair colors. I mean, I understand when an anime changes them to make it easier to tell characters apart, but pretty much all of FY's characters had very recognisable traits already, so it was completely unnecessary and aesthetically ugly (besides not fitting Watase's style at all). The only good thing about the FY anime was that it followed the story closely. But it didn't make up for the fact that it butchered everything else. |

Wow looks exciting! I've only read like 10 chapters, but I think I'm going to start reading it again since the anime is coming out :) |

Candor said: OT: Not sure what to expect yet, but it sure looks interesting. I read a few chapters and so I think the first chapters were pretty good. It have pretty nice concept and from the looks of preview it looks like it'll be a well done adaptation - cast is top-tier, animation looks great and ending by OLDCODEX sounds nice. It'll only gain by animating it. So I'm waiting for this. Shattix123 said: It´s a shounen so where are the girls in this anime lol It's aimed at fujoshi (like Kuroko no Basket, Prince of Tennis or InuxBoku) so what do you expect ? |

I especially pointed this three animes because they're shounens with zero BL (or it looks that way), Kuroshitsuji, Pandora Hearts, Magi, Maji Love also are series that are popular with them. It looks like fujoshi prefer shounen anime/manga full of bishies than the real BL, imagination (and a bunch of hardcore doujinshi) is all they need. |

What I meant to say is, certain shounen do have material that can easily spark fujoshi's minds. Out of the ones you mentioned, PH and Kuroshitsuji definitely fit the bill; I can't talk about the rest, though, as I haven't read/watched them. However, Arata isn't one of them. Sure, the characters are good looking, but there needs to be a bit more than that for a manga to be considered fujoshi-bait. |

I can agree on that, that this show doesn't have enough to be popular with fujoshi, maybe Otome fan-base should be a better choice for this but I think that studio is or would rather aim at fujoshi because they're more willing to buy DVD/Blu-ray or gadgets of it than normal spectator(they actually can be pleased with anime but will they be pleased with it so much to buy DVD/Blu-ray?). It's many times easier to convince fujoshi/moetard to buy dvd than guys that buy something for story not for fan-service. |

It's aimed at fujoshi (like Kuroko no Basket, Prince of Tennis or InuxBoku) so what do you expect ? That's all I needed to hear to decide that I will definitely not be watching this anime. |

Unless they COMPLETELY change everything from the manga, Arata is DEFINITELY not aimed at fujoshi. |

| Looks pretty good, but I have a feeling the studio will just make it 12-13 episodes and make some crappy anime original ending. I haven't read the manga, but it's annoying seeing this happen to a bunch of anime that have have a decent length plot. |
 |
| I wonder when will it be picked up for subbing? I'm soo looking forward to this anime!!! |
 |
| OH YES. GAYS, BUTTS, GAYS & BUTTS. That was all I saw in the trailer. Not to mention the way the guy A looked at Guy B...that was definitely gay. They should do each other already. Yes definitely made for Fujoshi to enjoy. LOLOLOLOL, seriously?!!! =_= Wtf? What´s up with those comments? I am a fujoshi and it didnt even cross my mind gay stuff while watching the trailer. How did you reach that conclusion? it is because the main guy will crossdress? Seriously guys, do you honestly think that a fujoshi cannot enjoy straight romance? =_= At least one thing you said its true: We dont need gay anime to make them gay in our fantasies. But it really makes me laugh people who avoid anime just because its labeled for "fujoshi". More space in the forum to spam BL Fujoshi dont harm people, guys. We spread our love for bishounen. That´s all. All fandoms should be respected. No need to flame or run away XD Now my comment about this trailer: - Manga art is so much better. Anime art sucks, they must have low budget. - If the main girl turns out to be another Miaka (FY), Ill cut my wrists. - Overall the only thing that pleased me in this trailer was the voice actors. Still, shall give it a try, I might be wrong. |

| Why did the MAL pic for this anime get worse compared to before? LOL |
| Has this even officially started airing? I haven't seen any trace of this at all anywhere even though MAL lists it started March 23rd? (where is this date from even?) |
:3 |
| There was some sort of private premiere on the 23rd. It starts airing tomorrow (Apr 8). |

That's all I needed to hear to decide that I will definitely not be watching this anime. OH YOU. OH, ME~ Sorry if that came out the wrong way. What I was trying to say was, a show centered showing fanservice to fujoshi does not appeal to me in the slightest, and therefore I have no interest in watching such a show. |

That's all I needed to hear to decide that I will definitely not be watching this anime. What? I hated yaoi shit but I loved KnB, PoT, and well, find InuxBoku to be average. And, I doubt it's aimed at fujoshi, oh damn, just because they draw sexy handsome guy, and with lots of them in the series, it's aimed at fujoshi? How bias can people get? Seriously, sports anime are all about BROMANCE, not GAYMANCE please, don't get the fact wrong, it's because of these mindset that the world are changing for the worse..

NOPE, read what I typed above, not in the slightest, there aren't even the slightest bit hints of the damn gaymance (no offence to gays), and there aren't much fanservices either, man, showing a man's chest = fanservice? Sigh.. I am disappointed of this world. This show, by any means, are not aimed at fujoshi! -.- I saw this from episode 1 discussion, someone said this is just like Zetsuen no Tempest, people see PV/covers, thinking "Whoa lots of hot guys, lacking female characters, oh this must be a ghey undertone show, yes I'll be passing this", and Zetsuen no Tempest turned out to be so much different. This is why nobody can ever appreciate a beautiful friendship between men, all just thinking of, "damn they're ghey". WTF? |
