This was a bit unexpected for me, but I'm surely very happy about this! Can't wait for see it.

I wonder what studio will animate it and how much they will cut out, though.

I was actually thinking about this recently and whether it could get an anime adaptation, this is so awesome I'm actually really looking forward to it!!! Had to drop the manga because the scanlations were slow :c This is the most I've been excited for an anime announcement in a while~

I've been hoping for an anime adaptation, but also figured one would never come. Great news! Nicolas and Worick pls.

It's going to be interesting to see how they censor or cut certain things...

The plot sounds quite basic and slightly generic but the greatest stories can have some of the most basic of plots.

Interested enough to start reading it...

Man what is it with all the recent awesome looking new adaptations. I hadn't heard of this manga but after reading the synopsis looking at the art style this looks really good. Gonna start reading this after I'm done with Tokyo Ghoul. Looks like the rest of this year is going to kick ass.

I don't like the manga. I think it's too fluffy and vanilla for a story about criminals.
I hope anime would be better.

Looks interesting and the art looks sort of unique. And I'm probably the only person who cares about this but KENJIRO TSUDA! That guy's voice is amazing!

Of course Junichi Suwabe is amazing too.
