It’s not yet clear if this Hanaichi anime project will be a TV series or just an OVA, but more details are expected to surface when the magazine carrying the announcement comes out in Japan, this February 20. So, for now, just hang in there, boys and girls! AnimeNewsNetwork has also reported this, pointing out that the original cover image posted by the editors of B’s-LOG has already been replaced with a modified version that obscures the anime announcement.
