Ecchi Elements
The manga is known for its ecchi elements, which involve suggestive or mildly erotic content. Some fans express concern that the anime adaptation might tone down these elements, potentially diminishing one of the series’ selling points. However, others speculate that any censorship in the TV version may be lifted for the Blu-ray release.
Potential Themes
Despite the ecchi content, the series may explore themes of:
- Romantic comedy
- Science fiction
First Impressions
Initial reactions to the anime’s announcement have been mixed, with some expressing enthusiasm for the art style and character designs, while others remain skeptical.
