I had blindly added this to my CR queue without reading any summary, and the OP made me think this was a show would drop quickly, but the premise is interesting enough to hold my attention for at least a few episodes.
I’m somewhat surprised as I was getting the impression that funi was trying to muscle back into the fujoshi market. I guess they’re content to grab the titles that are at the top of that heap and leave it at that, more or less?
Oh, the temptation at the end of this episode! But I’m sure Ryouma will remain a perfect gentleman, even with his threats… Okay! So, I’m hoping he’ll take advantage of Izumi anyway! LOL
So it looks like Kadokawa has lessened its announcement restrictions on Sentai as the last 2 seasons they were able to announce acquisition once the series finished it’s live stream. Interesting
Only 10 episodes? wow things are getting really stupid and people really lazy. I know it was an oversexed anime, but still a season used to be 14 episodes with reruns, then people dropped to 12, maybe you get 25 for a year… but things only being 10 episodes? are they adopting Ameri-trash TV stupidity now? Will many anime end like Eureka from SyFy with only 4~6 episode seasons? Might as well just make a movie at 18 minutes*6 than to even bother with something weekly.
