Character Popularity Polls exist for almost every manga!
Since when did it become a project that needs to be pre-anounced, covered with mystery?

This is one of those situations where I feel like I am completely missing some sort of joke. Or someone is trying, and failing very badly, at covering up something. Because I honestly don't understand at all how you end up with a popularity poll in this situation. Like, did some intern accidentally forward "special project" to the wrong person in PR and no one catch it until too late? Is this some weird really early or really late April's Fool joke? Just feels like I'm missing something...

Pachinko would have been teased with "important announcement" Laughing
It's being a long time since I've seen an announcement for an anime Pachinko game!

Were they trying to tell the readers that the manga's not popular enough to get an anime? Because that's how this comes off.

So this is a series popular enough in Japan to get it's popularity poll announced in an American anime news site? I gotta admit I was mildly surprised to see news about this series, as it was announced about 2 weeks ago that it'll be published in finnish next spring. Of course, a good part of the reason being that the Psycho Pass manga that ended here recently by the same artist, seems to have sold well enough...
