It has been announced that the game Rance 01 will receive an anime adaptation. The announcement was made via Twitter. Animation studio Seven will be in charge of the project.

The Twitter posts mention that the animation studio is currently recruiting staff for the project and that fresh talent is welcome to apply.

AliceSoft is an eroge publisher which has been active sine 1989. Rance 01 is a 2013 remake of the first Rance game, released in 1989. Rance follows the namesake hero who is tasked with finding and protecting the daughter of a guild owner; however, the case turns out to be much deeper than it initially appears to be.

Seven in charge. So either it would be another hentai OVAs or they hope to make their first full series.

Lol this game. I'd like to see it more a hentai than a short ecchi series that Seven usually produces.

Don't forget that Seven produces hentai too. And normal OVAs sometimes.

If there would be something I really would never have expected in my life, it's that Rance would get an anime adaption. First time I really hope this will be more a Hentai Series than a fanservice one.

I mean based on the actual games, Sabaku no Guardian had pretty much nothing to do with the game series.

Well this is a shock, I think this anime came about because they just closed their Tokyo office for reasons still not determined. Financial woes could be the driving force behind this and the office closure.

OH ME, HAHAHAHAHA!!!!

THIS IS PRICELESS!

OH ALMIGHTY!

I can't wait for this shit... I'd love if they'd think of translating Rance Quest even with it's length though. And the new Rance too.

What MAL and the world needs is more Rance.

Rance already has 1 hentai adaptation, an old one. But still, a new Rance adaptation sounds pretty cool. I'm still waiting for my Sengoku Rance adaptation though.

Look at my reply at Nachtwandler_21, I mean an adaption based on the games. :D

I totally second that!
But I would love to see Rance 06 before Sengoku since it's the Rance with the best storyline.

The classic Rance is getting a new adaptation? I presume non-hentai?
bla bla bla
The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

A non-hentai Rance is going to be goddamn awful. Anyone who thought of this idea should be strangled on the spot.

I don't really see the point since Rance is composed of two things: porn and gameplay, and neither can be conveyed in a TV anime.

First and foremost the game is about characters (and hentai) but mostly characters. I doubt they'll be able to show Rance in his true state considering the censorship in Japan, but it'll be pretty damn cool to see Rance nonetheless.

The biggest question of them all is who will be next Rance, cause I doubt amazing Yao Kazuki will reprise his role.
