| It sounds quite interesting and it seems to have potential to be actually good for once. I will probably check it out when it airs. |

| oh i know this manga it's meant to be REALLY good. thats all i know |
| Best news I've had all week. Assuming the nuances survive the transition to anime, I can't see this being anything less than awesome. |

| I read something about this manga not too long ago. I'm actually interested. |
| It looks like its gonna be one of a kind. I'll be checking it out when it airs, or perhaps the manga. |
 |
| Excellent news :D |
| My first novel, Kardia has been published! Click here to read! |
| Seems very promising. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| Awesome! I love the manga. |
| >User since 2008 Please god help me quit this website. Such great community that doesn't even know how demographics work, AND gives """detailed"""" reviews after first episodes. |
| well i don't know yet we'll see |
| Might have to check this out.. But I'm more stoked about the manga being licensed, personally. It is a truly remarkable series. That, plus the Fantagraphics manga line along with more Moto Hagio in English is the best news I've read in quite some time. |
 |
| Holy crap O_O and other Shimura Takako series to be animated? Awesomeness \o/ |
 |
| It was only a matter of time.... |
 |
| Oh, oh! A gender bender. So watching it. |
    |
| i read the summary of the manga.. somehow reminds me of toradora.. |
| This shocked me! But it's great news. |
 When the rosario on her chest is taken off, Moka's vampire inner self awakes.  |
| Why yes. I enjoyed Shimura Takako's "Aoi Hana" a lot, so can't wait to see another title of her being animated. kencarrot said: i read the summary of the manga.. somehow reminds me of toradora.. Did we see the same Toradora? |

| Sounds cute. Maybe I'll check it out. |
 |
| YES. This is one of my favourite manga ever. It's beautiful and sweet and just incredible. I really hope the anime can live up to the manga. Incredible news. |
 |
| Reading the manga description, I can say I'm quite interested in this! Gender bending like this can be very cute. <3 |
 |
| Oh wow, fantastic. The manga, from what I've read so far, is extremely enjoyable. Definitely looking forward to this. |
| Sounds like Lovely Complex + Toradora :> Definitely will check it ^^ |
| 20px!!!! |
McAnder said: Sounds like Lovely Complex + Toradora :> Definitely will check it ^^ Nothing like ToraDora. What the summary doesn't say is that it's a fairly realistic look into the lives of two children with gender identity disorder and their struggles with their peers, their families and themselves coming to terms with the fact that they are simply different. That being said, it's a beautiful manga, and I fully suggest anyone with the slightest bit of interest check it out. |
|
| SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEE~ Such perfect news. Can't wait for news of staff. |
| really, it's one of my favourite manga! Awesome news :3 |
tehnominator said: My thoughts exactly. I really loves this series and hope they adapt it well.OMG WHAT!?!? I never thought this would happen. Seriously, a LONG time coming. |
| This is wonderful news. I'm definitely going to be watching this one. |

I must admit, I never thought it would be adapted into an anime as I thought the conservative Japanese society might be sensitive to the issue of gender identity disorder in children. Anyhoo, Im definitely looking forward to checking out how they portray the characters & their relationships. x |
 |
| I'm surprised, but happy to hear this! |
| YES. Oh man. YES!! |
 |
| ive just read the first 50 chapters(i couldnt stop reading it) and it is one awesome story i cant wait for the animation >w< |
| Excellent news. Definitely a must watch for me. |
 |
| plot seems interesting one, sounds a good show to pick :> |
| I can't even put into words how excited I am right now...this is by far my favorite manga ever made. I just hope they manage to make the anime equally as awesome. <3 squeeeeeeeeeeee |
 |
| oh, cool, been on my plan to read forever. I'll probably end up watching the anime first... |
| >.< i read thru 82 chapters all together xD didn't wanna stop o.o wonder when the anime would be out tho.... |
    |
| Very good news, it's clearly my favourite of Shimura's work. And while I'm slightly doubtful on how well an adaption would work, Aoi Hana did, and that had a lot less charm than Houro Musuko. |
 And on the edge of sanity I stumble and fall. |
| cant wait T-T i think it will be great <333 i really like plot <33 |
| This is AWESOME news!!! I had been hoping for this ever since I started reading the manga, but seriously didn't think this would ever happen… I was already surprised enough when the Aoi Hana anime was announced, and always thought the issues addressed in Hourou Musuko were too sensitive for it to get a TV adaptation. Here's hoping it will be adapted with the same flair and sensibility that graced the Aoi Hana anime… I can't express just how excited I am about this. Best news I've read all month! :) |
 |
| I cant wait for it to come out!!!!! >w< I wonder how long it will be? xD |
 |
| Just discovered this manga like a week ago! XD And it's so great! Hope they do a good a job as they did with Aoi Hana, only with a more satisfying ending... XD |
