I hope this is the 'pilot'. Alot of the cuts look more like clips from an episode then part of the opening. Such as Yaoi-chan fangirling over two male highschoolers, the fujoshi meeting and her sister's new BL doujin.
Like most fans thought, it did turn moe. It feels a bit odd, since it very Kannagi like with the same character designer. If I didn't know better, I would have thought this is a moe anime then a josei (the manga is published under a josei magazine). BL references are great when you're a fujoshi yourself, I totally understand Yaoi-chan's feeling when she sees two highschoolers.

Maybe they are both nods to manga scenes and suggestions of what could be in an anime. The OP to Kannagi showed scenes that weren't in the anime. Maybe that, too, began as a sort of pilot for the anime. Of course, I'm really just hoping for an anime, lol.
I'm going to have to search out the comic, but from what I've seen, I get what people are saying about moeification. This is clearly Yamakan's visual style, but still there are aspects that give me a non-moe feeling: 801-chan's expressions are somehow individual and real to me; the way her body shape can be seen through her clothes is not exactly moe to me; and the way her feet were shown in the heels was too real to be moe, too. Maybe Yamakan is aiming to capture both audiences by edging a bit toward moe, but not the whole way. Anyway, as I said, 801-chan seemed a very appealing character to me, and I'd like to see her in action.

I just think if this sells well, a OVA wouldn't be out of the question. But Ordet is working on Black Rock Shooter. Yamamoto Yutaka did say he made this short to avenge himself (from wikipedia)...so lets just sit back and wait.
I wonder do more fujoshis read this or male-otakus? As a fujoshi/yaoi-fangirl/whateveryouliketocallme myself, I find most of the in-jokes absolutely hilarious. 801-chan is your typical fujoshi. But then again it 'might' appeal to otakus that they 'could' have a cute girl friend too, even if they are seen as rotten in society .

Then again, this is just and OP, and I don't think we're going to see a tv series out of this any time soon. EDIT: and for the record, the character designs suck. It ruins the whole thing IMO.

When I first read about it Yamakan was going to do it himself in Ordet but now is an A1 (and Ordet) project. And if aniplex is involved is non unlikely to expect something more consistent, IMHO. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIqI9-LyBCo |

You could think of it as a promotional teaser. They're doing one for Black Rock Shooter too, so one might theorize that it's a strategy to improve customer awareness before they announce the real product. Quote:
