Hakozume, trillion game, and now... this
Madhouse really liked adapt a series that already have live action

Lots of things to like about it: detective genre (comedy to boot), Kana Hanazawa, Madhouse. Definitely paying attention.

From the synopsis:

Reiko Houshou, a rookie detective at the Kunitachi Police Department, is also the heiress of the globally renowned "Houshou Group."
... alongside Inspector Kazamatsuri, heir to the "Kazamatsuri Motors" family business

The set-up sounds a little ridiculous, but I hope it's in service of some great comedy.
