I wonder if this will be a long term show. Very possible or at least good enough for multiple seasons. Anyways, I'm kinda excited for this next Spring.

Does this perhaps signal that the manga might be nearing its end?

I have heard about this manga a while ago, but never got into it. Mainly because I stopped reading manga a while ago. ^^; Anyway, I'll look forward to this. :P

Old school Manga.
I wonder if they will change the character design, or stick with the Manga's.
Either way, I'll watch this. Looks fun~

I will watch this gladly. I remember watching inuyasha when it was on television as a kid and liking it. Always meant to watch the whole thing but now this first. If it has the same tone as inuyasha but now just has ghosts instead of demons then cool, im down for that. And i really love rumiko takahashis drawing style

Adaptation of an old school looking manga from an old school mangaka.

Reminds me that I still haven't seen Inuyasha. Need to watch that someday.

Anyway this looks kind of interesting. Perhaps I'll watch it.

*fanboys away*

Oh hell yes, I knew this announcement was coming and boy is it glorious. I'm a big Rumiko Takahashi fanboy and I've collected all the volumes from the Rin-ne manga that Viz released so far.

Excuse me, I need to control my fanboying.

After it's completed 23 volumes? Honestly, I never expected this to happen, but hey, it's based on Takahashi-sensei's work. I'll definitely be watching it.

Yes, another adaptation of Rumiko Takahashi's manga!

I hope it's animated for the most part, if not in entirety.

I'm really happy for these news. :D

Wow, awesome news.
I was never able to really finish any of her previous works like Ranma, Inuyasha, Urusei Yatsura or Maison Ikkoku, since they were so damn long. But with these news and the recent BD rips for those shows I may finally be able to get around to watching them.

Thought it was a combination of two great shits: Kyoukai no Kanata and Rinne no Lagrange, to form ONE GIANT CLUMP OF SHIT.

Then it turned out to be a Rumiko work.

OH YES.

This better be better than Inuyasha.

I expected it to be longer too actually because there's quite a load of material to adapt.
Hoping for it to be seasonal then.

I'm happy with Brains Base being the production studio.

If they go for 25 episodes, they might skip the "fillers" (which aren't related to the arcs)... which is good. Well I've been reading Rinne for a while so I'm really really glad! I almost gave up
