Another is in a similar situation, since it was as well released in a LN label afterwards. However, in that precise case, the anime started one month before the release of the LN label version.

In these cases, normally it's the result of a media mix project. When an anime production is made of content not already available on manga or light novel, they will try to get the material in print format as well.

Yes, it's oviously a joint project in both case. They choose to publish it under a LN label as well, and they made an anime as the advertisement.
The point is, in both case it happened with PA Works, it was a work published under kodokawa bunko which started to be published under the LN label kadokawa sneaker bunko. Whereas for Uchouten Kazoku, it wasn't kadokawa bunko, and they didn't release a LN version at all .

So the obvious question is, in which label is currently published Haru-Chika? Well, answer is Kadokawa bunko.

In other words, there is a high probability that Haru Chika will get published under a Light Novel label between end 2015 and end 2016.

Still at a high school, still a girl and boy, BUT at least there's no stupid magic involved. The art looks nice.

Looks like it'll be another "undertones of romance but always going to be unfulfilled" schtick, will probably not watch it, but maybe. PA Works have been losing their touch anyway. Less budget, less talent (especially in character design) and their choice of music is always so flat and lame. Even Hanasaku Iroha (their last great anime) had bad music.

That's quite a different visual if those two are the same people from the (first two?) novel covers.

I also got quite confused.
Before 2013 covers used to be illustrated by a different artist.

Looks boring. Dramas revolving around bands simply can't be made interesting when taken seriously, so there's no real reason to get excited about it. The staff list is a disappointment, too.

Director involved in Tari Tari and Iroha - two major P. A. flops is putting me off but at least person responsible for the series composition has a better track record. Who knows, maybe it will turn out decent.

Hmm, sounds like there's potential here, but I am slightly sceptical. But hey, it's PA Works and it's a mystery series as well. Besides, I'm really interested to see how they combine music and mystery.

EDIT: Please don't let this be shonen-ai. I would really not be keen on that at all.

This TV series, will be a test for the PA Works, I hope you play his cards right. After so many mistakes, it could strengthen his position after the good performance he had with Shirobako.

Is this legit or is it just another "oh no the MC interacts with another male character ewwey its a yaoi gross!" reactionary hissy-fit we get whenever a show happens to not be a harem?

The premise looks nice but the art for Chika is laughable for the anime, they need to improve the moe artstyle a bit for her. Then again this isn't Kyoani which made the art better than the novel and manga.

Well, the situation seems to be this:

[spoiler]It seems that male MC and female MC have romantic feelings towards their teacher (male).

I guess the feelings of both characters are unrequited, since the love interest is their teacher (and this is produced by P.A Works).[/quote]

Wow! That is a huge difference between the anime and novel cover character designs!

I don't see how people can consider things like Tari Tari and Hanasaku Iroha flops? They were both quite successful. Tari Tari was consistently the top seller on the weeks its bluray volumes were released and first volume sales were well over 8000 copies after two weeks. That is not a flop. (Red Data Girl, that was a flop! Personally, I love both of them, but RDG certainly didn't sell well.)

PA Works record with adaptations always worries me. They seem to do much better with original anime than they do with adaptations. But I will still watch.

How well the music is implemented into the story and of what quality it is will be crucial to my enjoyment of the show.

The part about the MC's being childhood friends and solving mysteries together sounds alright too but ultimately it's all about the music for me.
