Very happy for Hirakawa, after almost 15 years of constantly being in Sunday with four different series, they finally get an anime adaptation. Hopefully it will give the manga at least a modest boost.

We got Morishita and Tsumiki to take on Ruri, so now Ichihara wants to try their hand on a Sunday version of Akane banashi?

Sleepy Princess also feels like it might be wrapping up but I’m less sure of that one.

Their old VAs? That's huge. They're already pretty old, I expected them to be replaced.

Not entirely Sunday related, but it's nice to see Fukuda find success again after gofun was axed a few years ago.
