Another potential sci-fi/psychological hit in the style of Summertime Render?

I have not actually read this manga, but I've had it on my "Manga likely to recieve an anime adaptation" interest stack for a long while. It seems a lot of folks were itching for an anime adaptation of this, so I'm happy for them :).

+ Plot might not be the most unique but deadly games are my thing. Studio is a mixed bag (albeit I haven't seen any of their new works), but has spawned some decent original stuff in the past.
- Has a heavy shounen/super power outlook over the psychological tone. The manga has been publishing for more than a decade and I'm not keen on the art style.

watching, waiting, commiserating
