Dengeki Bunko has announced that the light novel Eromanga-sensei will be getting an anime adaptation.

The series is created by writer Tsukasa Fushimi and illustrator Hiro Kanzaki, the duo of the Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai series which ended in 2013. Eromanga-sensei began publishing several months after the conclusion of that series, and the sixth volume of will go on sale on March 10.

Synopsis
The "new sibling romantic comedy" revolves around Masamune Izumi, a light novel author in high school. Masamune's little sister is Sagiri, a shut-in girl who hasn't left her room for an entire year. She even forces her brother to make and bring her meals when she stomps the floor. Masamune wants his sister to leave her room, because the two of them are each other's only family.

Masamune's novel illustrator, pen name "Eromanga," draws extremely perverted drawings, and is very reliable. Masamune had never met his illustrator, and figured he was just a disgusting, perverted otaku. However, the truth is revealed... that his "Eromanga-sensei" is his own younger sister! To add to the chaos that erupts between the siblings, a beautiful, female, best-selling shoujo manga creator becomes their rival!

BTW, in case people aren't aware the two of them are stepsiblings and aren't blood related so there's no incest.

OreImo was rather variable and not one of the better light novels we've seen adapted to anime. This one looks like it has considerably more promise but we'll see.

Oh look, an anime based on me! Cant wait to see garbage it is-

i'll try to check the anime, the LN was a fun read & incest is way less annoying than OreImo
Imagine a berserk anime by Yoshiaki kawajiri at Madhouse.

Now take a look at Berserk (2016).

So kirino with white hair? Sounds annoying and lame as fuck.

Why do these manga authors always seem to fixate on one genre / plot / synopsis for their entire life? Don't they get tired of it? don't they want to try new stuff? is that all they're good for?

I don't watch as much anime as before...

The LN was already doing well even before anime was announced. New volume is selling at over 30k in the first 2 weeks, which is very well. I'm sure after the anime airs it will become a top seller that sells over 100k per volume.

Fab news, been meaning to start reading this again, got 5 volumes but only read 1 chapter (too many series to read!) so this is gonna give me a nudge.

Oreimo was a phenomenal series (both anime and LN) so really, really looking forward to this.

Hmmmm...I actually did read the first 6 chapters of the manga for this last year, but got bored so I put it on hold. I'll probably try the anime though. Afterall the same thing happened when I read the KONOSUBA manga but I've been lovin' the anime of that.

You should learn to read the LN first before making such statements.....

not really, they are not blood related, and no, it's not spoiler, it revealed in very beginning of series.

as far as i read, the fanservice scane surprisingly low.

nope, please A-1. because at least they can't do character design wrong.

guys, it's not incest!

Wouldn't it make sense then? I mean.. throwing such statements just because someone read the synopsis is quite.. easy?
