I have not actually read this manga, but I've had it on my "Manga likely to recieve an anime adaptation" interest stack for a long while. It seems a lot of folks were itching for an anime adaptation of this, so I'm happy for them :).

Another potential sci-fi/psychological hit in the style of Summertime Render?
