I don't remember much about the manga since I've only read about 4 chapter but it'll be interesting to see what her role will be. Wonder if this series will also go with an anime original route also..

It's BONES so anime original route is pretty much a given

Gosick, Zetsuen no Tempest, and Soul Eater NOT didn't go original routes. But, I feel like this might be similar to what they did with Noragami. Follow the manga until it gets to a point where the amount of episodes remaining isn't enough to cover the whole arc that is starting and then having an original episode or two so that they don't get ahead of the manga if the series warrants a second season.

In the instances you mentioned, the source material already wrapped up/ended around the same time. Generally, Noragami non withstanding they just go anime-original if it isn't and the staff for this is good enough that I'd kinda prefer it go that way. I guess we'll see what happens

A former Childhood Friend, maybe? Fits with the common "mysterious and good-looking" trope.

Bones generally go 2 different routes...one if the source material is not ended they would go original route but if the story is nearly complete they would finish it completely...and bones adapts series that are more close to the end when it comes to source material..

blood blockade has been around for 09 and already 9 volume shave been released so i think it is safe to say there is high chance that the series will end soon just before or after the anime airs .... so there is a chance it will end the same as the manga...but if not than yeah it is safe it will go anime original...

we have to see....the one thing bones does right is that even if its anime original it still can manage to finish the story well than most other studios so we will see Smile

Hurrrr... Hope BONES won't mess up this one... BONES are really good at opening episodes but they get messy at the middle parts...

I'll admit I've managed to ignore every other mention of this new show so far but the inclusion of an OP from Bump of Chicken definitely got my attention. Premise & character designs look promising so I'll probably check it out come April.

Rie Kugimiya AND BUMP OF CHICKEN. I'm sold already. BUMP generally only agrees to do things songs for things they actually like. And they have amazing taste.

Damn it, not another one-line-eye character, and it's even the main character this time. It seems Brock's brother somehow made it into this show. Not thrilled Sad

If a company got Johnny Yong Bosch to be in the (possible) English dub, that'd make sense since this is from the creator of Trigun.
