Fantastic news, this has made my day! Hopefully they will bring it fairly closely to where the manga is now.

As thrilled as I am for having more BL made into anime, I wish they would go for Sekakoi instead of JR if they had to do a Nakamura thing. Honestly JR hasn't been doing anything for me for a while, Nakamura has effectively abandoned Egoist (my favorite couple) and Terrorist (can't even remember when the last chapter for the latter came out), and the only interesting thing going on isspoiler[ Misaki showing some spine and Usagi finally growing out of his overjealous overpossessive trash]

I'll watch it when it comes out, hopefully there's still some Egoist left to be animated, and maybe the anime will bring back memories of why I enjoyed this series so much in the past. I'm just so bored with the currentspoiler[ Ijuin-sensei] storyline and wish Nakamura would stop beating around the bush and havespoiler[ Misaki and Usagi confront Misaki's brother with the truth.]

Yeah, to be fair I lost interest when spoiler[Misaki's cousin turned up ] essentially when Tokyopop went under - I'm hoping that the anime will be a little easier to put up with.

I'm looking forward to it. I haven't been reading the manga since Tokyo Pop went under, so I'm excited to see what happens next.

Most of the SubLime series would make amazing adaptations.

As long as there is Egoist in it I'm buying it. That and I bought the last two seasons, so it'd be kind om incomplete without it. Not exactly excited though.

Sex Pistols would be a nice anime adaption. I didn't really like how to OAV skipped so many parts in the manga at the beginning. Either way, more BL is always good. Too bad the we don't get to see more of Yukina Ko and Shota Kisa pair ups. I'm tired of the uke being the small and feminine one.

;< More bara please.

I can't believe this series is /still/ dragging on. I got bored of it around volume 12, but I'll probably watch this for nostalgia's sake. Seems anything by Shungiku Nakamura is basically a license to print money in BL terms. I wish they'd animate His Favourite instead.
