The first glimpse of Chuu-ni-byou de mo Koi ga Shitai’s upcoming TV anime has proved what moeblob fans had feared all along – it may well be the cutest thing to come from Kyoto Animation since K-ON!…
The preview:
Chuu-ni-byou de mo Koi ga Shitai (very loosely, “I’ll even date this dumb second-grader!” – “chu-ni-byo” referring to the sort of juvenile idiocy commonly seen amongst adolescents) follows the usual pattern of Type B light novels with overly long and almost untranslatable titles, being a love comedy between two adolescents, one of whom happens to sport a classic eye-patch moe accessory and harbours secret powers, perhaps.
The anime is set to air in the autumn 2012 season.

I will hate it if they abuse their moeness too much that it will hate crappy styryline like K-On
K-On! Was a Slice-of Life series...
And this will be SOL+magic+eyepatch+boy. Win!
That sounds great!
The boy part ruin it for me. I prefer yuri.
My body is ready.
My dick is ready.
My ready is body
These girls unlike K-on actually look cute and seem Moe. I love that we have an eye patch girl. Last one I remember was Chihiro, and that was 4 years back!
Did you forget Mei Misaki?
I have for-shamed the Anime community for forgetting such a wonderful character. Forgiveness Please!
SNAPE KILLED DUMBLEDORE WTF MAN
Too late. Too damned late.
Another harem, now with moe
I'm pretty sure this isn't a harem.
For now it's not but by the 3rd or 4th ep it will be
I doubt it... Considering this is based on a romance novel. And has KyoAni ever made a harem series before?
Yes, it made Haruhi. And it was a great success.
Except in the case of Haruhi it is debatable. Mikuru wants to but can't, Itsuki creeps Kyon out and Nagato is Nagato. So that means Kyon's only option is Haruhi, like it or not. He is doomed.
Haruhi excels at making something that looks like a certain trope and them flip it upside down. It might look like some normal school/slice of life/harem anime but if you continue watching/reading it will turn to totally unexpected directions.
Run out of hair color, eye color, hairstyle, clothing style and personality to make a character seem unique? No problem, just use an eye-patch, they're all the rage!
（￣ _ゝ￣）
How do you know anything about the character's "personality" when it's not even out?
They are classic moeblobs plus classic Normal Japaneese Student. This is obvious.
No, it isn't obvious. And learn what the fuck "Moe" actually means.
Oh yeah, your ignorance is astonishing!
Here comes the greatest moe of our time.
Hopefully its a little more exciting than Hyouka... Granted I dropped it after the 6th episodes so I dunno if it got better or not.
That show was an absolute masterpiece!
...of boredom.
of garbage
...Said the worthless troll.
Are you serious?! Hyouka was so damn good.
If Kyouran Kazoku Nikki has taught us nothing else it's that eyepatches are adorable.
Akito Wanijima kinda taught me that >w>
Oh and Chihiro Shindo also taught me that
Chihiro is a bundle of cute wrapped in moe.
^
i approve of eyepatch-moe
You actually watched that? I couldn't even finish the 2nd episode.
That anime is so fast paced I can't keep up past the pirate episode.
Uhhhh, how is this the "first glimpse" of this anime? There was a teaser out last week, and a much longer preview a few weeks before that.
Also, that is not what the title means at all.
ill watch it, idk how they are compareing it to K-on, witch to me had no point,it looked good and thats it there wasnt anything interesting about it. granted my intrest is all over the place with storydriven supernatural, or hightech ect being the top. watched one k-on dropped it >>
People are comparing it to K-ON because of the artstyle of the characters, how they look, etc.
It was my first glimpse.. and i will DEFINITELY be watching
Seriously, what it up with the obsession with eyepatches on girls in anime? I just don't get the appeal. : /
We like our girls disabled in some ways or another.
Her other eye seems fine. They're chuunibyou, so the eyepatch is a costume.
Her eye isn't fine, it is there to seal the hidden power of her devil's eye.
Katawa Shoujo eroge is for you then. Actually i recommend it it's damn good.
There are no girls with eyepatches. And it is scary, I've ended up killing that burnt girl.
I went to school with a girl that had one eye. Cool chick, but she didn't have any special powers.
I went for the burnt chick first thing and got the good ending.
"we like our girls disabled in some ways" OR ANOTHER. HAHAHAHAHAHA
I see what you did there.
Personally speaking, I like the look of Anime girls with eyepatches.
She's a chunibyou so it's likely just fake.
I hope you know that the title is about the boy...
Because it's either they have heterochromia eyes and/or special power or ability with their eye. Seriously, when has it actually been for medical purposes, that's right never.

Ayanami Rei being the origin of the trope was really injured in the first time we see her like that. The other time we see her like that she was using it to pretend that she was injured in the last fight (and hide that the preview one died and the current one is another clone)
Two words: Nice Holystone.
Chihiro Shindou in ef wears an eyepatch because she lost her eye (and sustsained brain damage as well) from when she was hit by a car.
In this case it's more like a reference to the obsession itself, since she's a crazy girl that acts like an anime character.
Blame Ayanami Rei! http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BandageBabe
coz its strangely hot.. no?
Ayanami Rei. There aren't really that many eyepatch girls, nowhere near as much as maids.
Yeah, though maids are usually minor supporting characters. Seems like every female lead lately has had an eyepatch.
Really? I can't even think of five female leads that wear an eyepatch from this years shows.
Have you never been to Japan? Go to a populated city and you'll see one girl with an eyepatch every hour.
Those are just the chicks who were whoring themselves and got punched in the face by a guy who didn't want to pay.
It's the same girl, but MAN DOES SHE GET AROUND.
I think it's a reference to Mei from the anime Another.
Valmet from Jormungand
They've obviously got something to hide when they wear eyepatches.
Some people find that very attractive.
