An official site has launched and announced that Takuto Kashiki's Hakumei to Mikochi (Tiny little life in the woods) manga will get a TV anime adaptation. Studio Lerche will be animating the series and Kusanagi will serve as the art director.

Synopsis
Nine centimeters (3.5 inches) tall, tiny girls Hakumei and Mikochi live in the forest. Living in a tiny house in a tree, riding insects and birds, and making umbrellas out of leaves, these tiny girls live a tiny life. Follow their tiny but lovely lives as they live their day-to-day in a fantastic world of tiny people and gods. (Source: MangaHelpers)

Hakumei to Mikochi began its serialization in Enterbrain's Fellows! magazine in 2011. The magazine was renamed as Harta in 2013, where Hakumei to Mikochi continued its serialization. The fantasy manga has received five compiled volumes, with the latest released on January 14, 2017.

I've been reading this for awhile and it's great. A fantasy slice of life story with each chapter taking on character adventures.

Hopefully they'll have enough chapters to adapt. (I've only read up to chapter 30+)

An iyashikei adaptation! I haven't read the manga, but I hope the anime will persuade me in doing so :)

I started reading that manga a short while ago. A very charming and fantastic experience that will be a bliss in animated form. Awesome <3

That's adorable, it seems like a much better version of the Smurfs.

Sounds like something I'd see from Ghibli. It looks nice so I'll probably check it out.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

OMG YES! I freaking love this manga, it's so adorable and heartwarming, I was hoping it would get an anime and here it is! I think Lerche will do a fine job.

Lerche is an automatic yes for me. It looks adorable though. Not enough "tiny" in the synopsis.

Read a few chapters a little while ago. It was really cute, but nothing more. I can see people enjoying it.

Huzzah!!!

It's a really well done fantasy, with very well-thought-out worldbuilding, but that doesn't bombard you with more than is necessary to enjoy the stories (looking at you, Centaur's Life). Definitely more reminiscent of some of my favorite fantasy books as a child than anything that's been done often in anime - the closest thing is the Borrowers/Arrietty (but unlike them it's definitely mostly aimed at adults).

I've been reading this for a while, it's a great relaxing read. Still can't believe it's finally getting an adaptation. I can't wait. The key visual looks great too. It feels like it could be one of those hard-hitters.

because it really does... maybe manga cover would help?

So much win, been reading the manga, if the art is as good as in the anime, it will be a top tier fantasy slice of life, can't wait. Please animate my other manga favorites, Yotsubato!, Until Death Do We Part, the rest of Hajime no Ippo, and Otoyomegatari.

Oh, that is definitely a positive suprise. The manga is a quite charming. A mix of rural slice-of-life of those two girls, mystical things, folklore and the awe of nature - be it natural phenomena, the interaction with the wild life or their adventure trips.

Anime are usually known for stupid synopses but this one got me. Sounds fantastic to be honest.

Eeeh, just two days after I posted this in the "what manga would you like to see adapted" thread O_O

But.
The artwork of that manga is absolutely gorgeous, it would take some budget to live up to the source, though I'll still keep an eye on it, of course.
