Am I the only one who wants a Sherlock OVA? One seperate from the TV series? As in it adds to it?

Is it just me or is the yaoi factor played up a bit? It was joked about in the series but here it's a lot more heavily implied. Maybe its the artstyle.

I hope they don't deviate from the source material to appeal to yaoi fans.

Well,it looks like the English speaking world's going to get a "Sherlock" manga. But,what would be wrong with an "Elementary" manga. It trods similar ground that "Sherlock" does,but is set in New York. I don't know how the Japanese would feel about that but since Sherlock Holmes is popular in both America and Japan,it's probably a good idea.

I bought a copy of this manga while I was in Japan.

It's already in English. But with furigana around the relevant panels.

So... I guess this is more of an import thing, really?
