Written by Okada-sensei (), main girl voiced by Kayanon (who's competing with HanaKana as my favourite VA), and animated by JC Staff (who was only recently knocked off my favourite studio simply because they haven't recently produced something that interests my fancy)?
Yeah definite must watch for me.

AFAIK, the only childhood friends are side characters, the senpais. And unfortunately, they don't seem very interested in each other (*gasp* what has Japan come to? at least one sided crush please >_>)
Of course, there's ALWAYS hope that ShiinaXKanda are 'forgotten' childhood friends, but it's a VERY long shot.

Ai Kayano as a quiet girl again? And a male lead with an inexperienced voice actor whose major and recent roles have been crossdressers, little boys, and feminine males generally? Dear god, that's even worse than Yuuki Kaji.
With the premise on top of that... might have to pass on this one. |

It's the whole "this girl can't look after herself she's so innocent wouldn't you want a girlfriend like that" factor that I can't stand. |

It isn't, but considering she's done so in every single series she's been involved in the past year and a half (and she's scripted a fuckton of series, both anime originals and adaptations), I'm confident to say she has a crossdressing fetish. Ok... maybe not Black Rock Shooter, but that series was lolsy/retarded (you're mileage may vary) for a different reason.
The most random one being episode 6 of Lupin III... that was completely out of place. Funny enough, involved Yuki Kaiji |

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if my memory serves correct there's no man in drag in these series from 2011 on...
Aquarion Evol Fractale Kenshin OVA Maybe Okada puts crossdressers more often than other writers (nothing wrong there per se), but I wouldn't say she puts it in every one of her shows.

Honestly I think it's just a coincidence, and again, there are plenty of other series that emasculate male characters in a variety of horrible ways. I think this is an issue with the industry rather than an issue with Okada herself. Speaking of which, and perhaps being a lot more on-topic, what happened to male leads that actually looked and sounded, you know, male? That's my biggest problem with the lead's voice actor in Pet na Kanojo. Quote:

I'll say this again so 0utf0xZer0 doesn't have to say it again.
Last time Okada did an adaptation for a show produced by JC staff she took out a crossdressing scene that was in the original work. As for the male lead,he sounds pretty male in Moretsu Pirates, though that's just a supporting role. edit:And why are we even talking about crossdressing?Is there any in the LN?I doubt it'll be randomly added to the anime.
