Thank you, the article has been updated.

It is generally our policy to not report on news from books or magazines based on photographs online until one of our staff members has personally seen the book or magazine, but we usually make exceptions if the photograph comes from a bookstore, as was the case here.

I did not expect the small print to basically say "but not really." Anime smile I'm sorry for any confusion caused by my error -- I'll know to expect this kind of thing in the future!

Knowing the premise of the story and knowing who the author is, and knowing from recent years what kind of works tend to get adaptations, I expect that 'joke' to breach through the walls of reality eventually...

To use the buzzword, ANN unintentionally published a "fake news" story. However, an update was made to point out that error.

I kind of feel like the joke itself is somewhat newsworthy.
