Abs is more about low fat than muscle quantity. Still, in most anime "muscular men" looks like they belong in Fist of the North Star. Even Ippo from the boxing manga/anime have muscle that just doesn't make sense for a featherweight boxer.

Oh shut up and get over it. You'll get your moe moe kyun in the future with the second season of Chunbyu. As for how fit the cast is...they're supposed to be athletes so I'd imagine that the typical bishonen style of being thin and pretty is moot this time around.

The scans are really ripping their muscles up eh?
Somehow, this feels like compensation for the fujoshi group in Kyoani, after working on so many moe series over their years. Now the fujoshis are really giving all they got. In a way, maybe we can have an insight of their mind, as to what makes men tick. |

Eh?! fujoshi are not necessarily shotacon... usually muscular guys are more prevalent.

Some of these boys may have toned bodies (still slim), but I almost never seen that they have muscles so marked as the boys of "Free". Last edited by Konja7; 2013-05-14 at 11:07. |

Kyoani should animate the swimming scenes with a Koike style to make the show visually engaging. This could be a good opportunity for Kyoani to showcase more of their talent.
Nichiyou had some very nice looking camera movements with great background animation and slow motion scenes. The CM for this show was really good. |

Anyway, my point is that this will be fan-service for US! Deal with it, as we have dealt with the all their braindead moeblobs KyoAni started its own shop and needs clients from both sexes

Anyway, when I think of archetypical yaoi fuel, Tiger & Bunny comes to mind, followed by Kuroko, Onizuka and Slam Dunk... these are/were unimaginably popular here both with circles and their fans Kuroshitsuji was also a major hit, but can not compare to the above, plus like K and NoitaminA appealed also to guys, and had a lot of service for them too Quote:
Whether boys and girls like Free! or did like K-On! won't change the fact that like most KyoAni shows this is also manufactured to squeeze out the last yen out of us, but now thankflly at least independent of gender
