| MEA·MENTVLA·INGENS·EST |

 "For the sake of humankind, I forsake my humanity." - Cherry |

|
| I'd watch Akio Camp. |

| AnimeThemes.moe <- the largest collection of anime Openings & Endings on the Web AnimeMusicQuiz.com <- guess an anime from your list by it's Opening/Ending music browser game |
| the visual looks amazing... |
| Aaah, too bad CyaZALEA Kiss (Love Live! Sunshine April fools joke) didn't made it here. That was a good one since the seiyuu even sung a song specially for it XD |
 I'm starting to get embarrassed by my own forum signature line.. XD |
| @alicerubesty, @Meira_Eve, I've added CYaZALEA☆Kiss, it was indeed a good one and deserves to be on here. |

| This April Fool's culture cannot be missed hahahaha |
| Apaixonado por jogos e animes. |
| It's about time the boys stopped playing irals and returned to their idol business. |
|
| lolmao zaimokuza 's seiyuu is now voicing everyone in oregairu :p. "komezuki no gekokujou" well technically she indeed loves rice and japanese food, it's just night impossible to do with the ingredients she has at her disposal so she goes for western food instead. Those peoples actually look very good as hosts, damn. The SnK one is good but damn it'"s creepy >_< "Tensei shitara Akari dake Slime datte ken" => lolmao. |

sn0wleaks said: YuruYuri's isekai spin-off was not an April Fools joke. Already released in February 2021 and it is still publishing (currently 4 chapters). Namori is also writing the manga with Naya Minadori. I see, thank you for pointing that out. This was included in animate Time's April Fools' Day post (and it is still on there) so I assumed it was a legitimate gag specific to April Fools' Day. |
