And Vol.4 of Kagerou Days sold 115,370 copies and took No.1 of the all book (non-manga) Oricon sales chart of the past week...

Based on light novel, cd and manga sales; it feels like the Kagerou Project anime will be pretty popular.

Cant wait! <3 vocaloid!

Vocaloid! o/

From the small snip-it summary, it's definitely interesting. :3

if you think it vocaloid its not its a series about psychic people similar to how BRS is not vocaloid

it still awsome but its not going to have any vocaloid characters

theres a manga series for kagerou day

After having read the manga (sadly just 14 chapters) I'm even more excited about this one.

Definitely one of my most anticipated anime. And that shaft is animating it makes it even better!

SHAFT might be the best choice for this imo. I've read the manga version and somehow thinks that it fits with SHAFT style.

^ Do you know in which occasion was this shown?

the source says from the Mekaku City Concert, today..
*No official announcement from twitter/website yet..

If it is the concert today, that would be "Jin's One Man LIve in Megaku City Summer '13" held in Zepp Diver City Tokyo in Odaiba: http://ia-project.tumblr.com/post/58044131015/2013-8-15

Seems the concert ended not so long ago and this news has yet to spread across the blogsphere. One comment I am sure will arise is with Nisekoi and now this what happens to Kizumonogatari that Shaft and Shinbo promised for so long...

Comments on the new kagepro MV on nico is saying that Miyamoto Yukihiro is on the project as a director. Not much credibility but at least there's news about the TV(OVA?) project. Take this with a grain of salt.

That's a good news then I guess...
Seems like this would be his first chief director role.
