MEGANEBU!	comment	Akira Souma believes there are three kinds of people: those who wear glasses, those who don't, and the ladies. He's so convinced of this, that he has founded "Meganebu", a club for glasses wearers, at his school. There are a total of four members: Akira, Takuma, Yukiya, Mitsuki, and provisional member Hayato. Together, they will... show glasses wearers' superiority to the world, or something like that. And build X-ray Glasses.MEGANEBU! started as otome Drama CDs, later adapted into a Slice of Life Comedy anime for the Fall 2013 season with a different cast. It is directed by Soubi Yamamoto (Kono Danshi series) at Studio DEEN, with character designs by Atsuko Nakajima. This article focuses on the animated version.

MEGANEBU! / int_129749df	type	All Men Are Perverts
MEGANEBU! / int_129749df	comment	All Men Are Perverts: The boys' ultimate goal is to build X-Ray Glasses to see through women's clothes. However, it could be argued that the only one set on achieving it is Akira. The rest are just following him. Subverted. That's not what he's aiming for. See The Reveal below.

MEGANEBU! / int_14ed6ab7	comment	Does This Remind You of Anything?: Glasses. Cream puff. Discuss. It doesn't help that Yukiya takes a bit with his finger and licks it... quite erotically. In Episode 3, we see Akira like this◊. Of course, it's because Kouichi is sitting on his stomach, but still...

MEGANEBU! / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: Episode 1 references Angel Beats! in the Mission Start! sequence. Also in Episode 1, Yukiya does a pronounced head tilt. This may have been done in acknowledgement of the show looking like Studio Shaft's usual style. Yukiya does Jojo-like poses in Episode 2. And then in Episode 5 Akira does the Ripple, complete with Written Sound Effects. Taken to hilarious extremes in Episode 6 when the five of them strike Jojo poses on the train. As a game to see who falls first. Episode 8 references Phoenix Wright. The first half of Episode 10 goes crazy with this trope, referencing Jumanji, Harry Potter, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Men in Black all at once. And it doesn't go without lampshading.
