Would you watch an anime series that is styled like a musical? Is there an existing musical that could translate well into anime and could even be helped with anime's strengths? Could a series be doable, or would it be better in movie/OVA format?

Only problem I see would be the massive amounts of animation it'd need to look lively during the big numbers. CG with motion capture or rotoscoping could work great, but imagine a musicals autist making a fully 2D series. You'd also need really good singing talent, though there are plenty of good seiyuu with good singing voices.

Pardon my ignorance if there are already anime musicals.

There already is an anime musical, or something like that. There are also the occasional musical-themed episodes in normal anime.

This was the only musical scene I was aware of.

Does Flint's song count?

Sure, why not? I have enjoyed operas for a long time now, and the only real difference between an opera and a music is that musicals have slightly less singing and different styles of music.

La bohème could work well.

Depends on the show. If it was some faggy SoL type musical, no. If it was an opera or drama, maybe. Only two things I can think of off the top of my head are Sweeny Todd and Les Miserables, even though I'm not terribly fond of either.

Ideally, it would be a new IP.

I'd probably watch a literal space opera show.

I also think it would need to be a bombastic, really energetic musical, so a SoL about a meek girl that wants something more wouldn't sound too appealing. For something easy, a Romeo and Juliet/star-crossed lovers, but with Yakuza and cops or powerful families would be nice, with all the scheming and backstabbing it entails .

I'd also like a series that is self-contained in a large stage, that uses props and practical effects, so there's no giant beast, but some guys in an animal costume, or characters flying through the air in wires and other clever effects, or plain old good acrobatics and martial arts.

But OP, Nerima Daikon Brothers already exists.

That's a good one. I do remember a very shitty one that I would describe as Twilight the anime because it involves vampires and werewolves. I guess they were devils but they had similar plot points. It was called Dance with Devils. It was very shitty and the songs didn't feel like they were integrated into the plot which some musicals fail to do. They feel like songs placed there instead of being a driving force for the story or invoking emotional drama.

Honoka becoming student council president was so dumb.
