Then the series would be much more serious and would fall into the shounen category, but I don't think it's easy to say because it would be a completely different series.

The problem isn’t the gender look at Lycoris Recoil for that answer. It’s just seems just bland with the Men in Black style stuff.

I think the series is fine as it is, if they were all males, then it would feel like a completely different story.

Plus I like the girls, as a LN reader I enjoy how they each have their own little arc.

They wouldn't have given it a double cours for a ln series if they expected it to do bad.

I don't think their gender is the issue here. I think if they made the animation better and had an original spy storyline kind of like release the spyce it would be a lot better

Um, no? The premise of the show is that a young spy student who does well in written exams but barely passes the physical ones gets sent to work (as they think) with a group of elites, only to discover that the rest of the team are as as much of a washout as them. Now they need to work together to not freaking die out there.

My point still stands.

Unless the point of the show is something different, and after 2 eps I'm still not getting it?

I don't compare it to Spy X Family and Lyco Rico. It's just that I believe the idea of the show is kinda to show that the washouts aren't the worst students (or like have hidden potential) because they can be very adaptive or something? I mean by what other logic would they assemble a team of them for the mission their best team ever died on?! But if you think about it for like two seconds, this idea is beyond terrible on so many levels and is simply surreal to work (them completing the mission I mean). I mean just because someone is a washout can mean different things.
Yes, it could be that they're super adaptive. But in a lot of cases, you've got smart people who just don't give it their all, and there are also people who genuinely struggle despite doing their best because they're not as naturally talented or are more stupid for the lack of a better term.
Like there's a well thought through system of spy academy, that's been honed throughout the war, or what was it. So they naturally teach the stuff you must know to be a better spy. Yet you take the freaking washouts, throw them at the best spy you have who can't teach stuff, and just in a month they are ready for an impossible mission the best spies in the country couldn't complete.
Do I need to say that being a spy involves multiple fields of operation? Negotiation, disguise, psychology, etc. And all they have been doing is doing ambushplans and uphill combat with the teacher.
The only way I see them succeeding on this mission is through plot armour and anime logic.

Also, at least if we look at the girl we start with, the premise says she does well on written tests and performs poorly in training. You know who also does well on written tests? Top students!
And if people who are bad in training are gonna be ready for that mission after one month of Klaus's training, then top students would be ready like ten times over.

If you're okay with LN contents, continuing my points from above posts:

The girls aren't washouts by normal definition.

But anyways. I don't know if the anime will handle it well, since I've only read the light novel.

Oh, thanks for telling me this. Brings me back hope and interest in the show. That would make a lot more sense, I agree. But the show does a terrible way conveying that idea. Neither the trailer nor the premise nor the first 2 episodes tell us that, I'm pretty sure. I bet that when the anime finally shows what you've written in the spoiler, we're gonna see a lot discussions about how out of the blue it would seem.

I have seen you blame Yuri fans in order forums before. Dude you defintely need to get your head check, Yuri fans doesnt hate shows with a male lead. You're delusional for thinking that. I never heard or seen a Yuri fan hate shows like MHA or any shows with a male lead simply because they are male.

Found the cuck here. Horikashi was getting death threats because he refused to make gay ships canon. How come on r/anime, mal all these new shows with male mcs are people just bashing it and now this new yuri show is like getting praised as AOTY. Surely no coincidence that npcs have no part to do with it. They did the same with american media for the past decade.

You're definitely Delusional. Maybe those shows just arent that good or over hype like this one.. Instead of thinking that, you started blaming other people. Not everyone has the same taste as you.

Also a lot of fandoms does have fans that does deathtreats, it's not just Yuri fans, so you cant solely blame them for it. Yuri is not even the biggest fan base here. Remove your tin foil hat pls.

I wouldn’t say it’s bad (completed it but didn’t like it much), but there’s no denying that yuri was a reason why people were liking it. Heck, the yuri fans of that show took things too far by harassing the staff over Twitter.

For some stupid reason the yuri fandom has beef with this show. But they can go f themselves. I have seen them ruin the gundam fandom and spam social media.

...if the "beat the sensei" formula only use for 1 or 2 episodes, haven't they learn something?
just progress to

"they manage to beat the sensei, the sensei sees the potential of the girls and their role and ready to be use in the mission"

or

the sensei struggles and give up to find another method to coach the girls (see kungfu panda plot).
at least give task to the girls so we have more ACTION and MYSTERY.

AND THEN progress with F-ing the "impossible mission" plot.

...if every episode has a better composition for the bonding, learning, background story and the plot proportionally. giving 100% background story for 1 episode is boring, especially if you are not interested in the character

...if more action / mystery rather than CGDCT

...if it does not have plot twist inside the plot twist inside the plot twist it makes every plot progress is not engaging any more

...if the twist in the plot does not ended up to "yup, I knew it all along, that was my plan" is getting way to old every plot progress is not engaging any more
