After the first 3 episodes I've begun to wonder. Is this series going to be a short 12-13 episodes or will it be longer? (around 24 episodes maybe).

The pacing seems to suggest that it will be a quick season. I have not read the light novels and may consider reading them in the future but I'm just curious as to what everyone's thoughts are on the run time for this series. From what I hear the anime is skipping through a lot of the content in the light novels.

So far this series ain't bad, really hoping for a 24 episode season.

2 cours, meaning two seasons of 12-13 episodes, with a slight break in between, they are going to be covering vol.1-4 most likely or troll the LN readers and do only vol.1-2

there are currently 10 volumes released this day

I see thanks, for the info! I'll probably pick up the LN during the small break in between. What a time to bring out this anime with Guild Wars 2 approaching launch date.

If they do troll us I'll be happy for new content, I sick and tire of waiting for LN 10 to translate. If they don't Hooray I get to see Fairies, and this guarantees a second season, probably since then they have precedent for Phantom Bullet to last 1 Cour, followed by Caliber, then Mother's Rosario. Though I wonder if they'll rush Alicization, that's suppose to be 5 volumes long.

Also don't get caught raging otherwise you'll be "taken to Avalon to Service Oberon King of the Fairies"
"Dean did you service Oberon King of the Fairies?"
"..."
Favorite line in Supernatural

Hmm they only updated it today. It was ? yesterday. Anyway this will be interesting, 25 episodes at a lightning fast pace. Hope it turns out right! It's a really nice concept.
