From what i have heard, this anime will air in the summer.

Synopsis copied from ANN
"The story centers around a high school freshman boy named Subaru Hasegawa who joined the basketball team, but the team stopped playing due to the captain being suspected of being a lolicon. Subaru somehow ends up as a coach of an elementary school's basketball team with five girls. "

Oh, I finally watched this as well. Kana-tan playing basketball. <3. (Also, is she wearing the K-on school uniform?!)

Agreed, we need more PVs like this, where the seiyuus actually do "something" xD

Finally!
Don't think this is another lolicon anime
The author (of light novel) seriously talks about playing basketball
all the strategies and skills are feasible for elementary school's girls

Hey, blitz1/2, the title actually says Ro-Kyu-Bu!, not Ro-Gyu-Bu!. Correct it.

Kaioshin Sama · 2011-06-02, 11:53

Oh hey is this that super moe moe loli basketball show I've seen in some of the preview charts? This might actually be entertaining for a few episodes and you just know people are going to freak out about it and get on a high horse even if it is mostly about basketball, which is entertaining in and of itself.

Um, I need a mod to fix it. Because I can't edit the title.

I'll PM one of them right now.

Thanks ! This anime is going to be directed by Keizo Kusakawa, the man who takes care of Nanoha and Dog Days (it's true, not fake)!

I guess they can't maintain the quality of art from the novel...well, no big deal. BTW, on the anime illustration, who's that girl second from right? She looks like a kindie...or a loli of loli

blitz1/2 · 2011-06-03, 09:06

I think it's the heads, they're a little too big.

shishio · 2011-06-03, 09:45

^ I thought big heads are trademark of a loli. Anyway, I'm not that fond of an anime that is too childish or shoujo-ish like precure. it must have something else to catch my attention.

For those who've read the novel, care to give us your opinion on what you feel after reading and maybe some insights on what we should expect?

I was wondering what the hell it was when I saw that trailer, and was very disappointed it wasn't a live action show. Oh well, lolis playing basketball is good too.

Holy cow that cast list

As much as I'm a Kana-chan fanboy I'll be on the lookout for Ogura Yui to steal the show.
