The first installment of the new anime project is an original animation DVD (OVA) that will be included with the 24th limited edition volume of the manga, shipping on March 23, 2017. Partial staff for the OVA has also been announced.

Yis yis yis, 2nd season pls

Please be second season, this was one of my favorite comedy anime, even if some of it relied heavily on knowledge of Japanese folklore.

And DEEN has never let me down with comedy shows, so I doubt they'll ruin it.

>another series switching to deen

Holy sht, deen is like a dumping ground for when the first studio doesn't have time for sequels and the publisher can't wait.
