He anticipates that it will be released this spring.

There are more than enough published shorts to make a 13-episode comedy series, along the lines of “Fumoffu.” Hopefully, once the final novel is written, a final main-line anime can be created with as many episodes as required to do the story justice.

I hope that this get animated as well AND that for a change a story gets wrapped up neatly. And with neatly I mean both the story about Chidori’s (and others) power even though I have to admit it’s been so long ago that if they animate this I probably will need to rewatch the original series first, AND see Chidori and Sagara as a real couple finally (even though I feel kinda bad for Teresa Testarossa in that regard).
I could do well WITHOUT a series like Fomuffu as imho it was ****.

What do you mean Fumoffu is ****? It was one of the best comedy anime at the time. It should just be considered a spinoff and not part of the “real” story.

Well, I probably still carry a lot of resentment as I was massively dissapointed when instead of a genuine 2nd season they produced Fumoffu.
And while I like comedy, I find it disturbing / annoying to see characters I greatly cared for in one series suddenly behave so, so …. differently. Fomuffo obviously got hit with the dumb-down stick to attract a younger audience.
