Kodansha Box's official website has announced that Kyouhei Koyama's novel "Eiyuu" Kaitai ("Heroes" Dismissed) will get an anime adaptation by studio Zexcs. Koyama will also be involved with the production.

The novel won the 25th BOX-AiR Newcomer Award in 2014.

Synopsis
The story centers on a boy named Uro Yamada, and a 17-year-old girl named Karon. Both work as part of the "Hero Retirement and Return to Everyday Life Assistance Agency," which takes heroes from another world back to Earth and helps them reintegrate into everyday life. Karon, a former hero herself, works under Uro as they tackle cases and also lives with him, with Uro constantly failing to rein in Karon's hero-like behavior even as he tries to ingrain the behavior of common people into her.

A down to earth less ecchi version of Aesthetica of a Rogue Hero.

Sounds like the inverse of the 'transported to a fantasy/video game world' idea

Could be funny

I'll wait for more info as I can't really decide if I'm actually interested yet. Probably depends on who the staff are if anything, as the synopsis sounds decent enough.

Lol this sounds like a reverse-isekai type of anime. I might give this a shot.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

How can you possibly figure that out based on just a synopsis?

Sounds interesting. I'm getting Hataraku Maou-sama and Yuushibu vibes from the heroes concept. I have a strange feeling it'll be similar to those two anime.

Sounds a lot like http://myanimelist.net/manga/56057/γ. But γ is better, because it's yuri.

I like the idea of this a lot. Since I am tired of the "normal guy gets to be a hero in a fantasy world/video game" trope. I hope its a full length anime tho,not only an OVA. (I heard the LN is pretty short)

This is the same case as kurage no shokudou, mitsuwano and Arve Rezzle: Kikaijikake no Yousei-tachi . This is a story featured in the digitalized magazine Koudansha Box Air, and was elected to get an anime.
all others were OVA, so that will probably be the case as well for Eiyuu Kaitai.

Eiyuu kaitai is still being published so the final length is unknown, but I doubt there will be enough content for a series by the time anime will be made, so yep, OVA.

And most probably produced by Starchild Records/ made by studio Zexcs as well.
Also, judging by the previous cases, expect it to be released in march 2017.

As I wrote above, pretty sure it will be released in march 2017, and that it will be an OVA by studio Zexcs. I mean all the previous titles adapted in anime from BOX Air followed an identical pattern.
