I was wondering when it would be announced as an anime, its manga adaptation has been popular for a while.

The manga is a good read so I am excited about this news.
Now all to do now is to announce an anime adaptation of I Got Caught Up in a Hero Summons and the world is okay again (at least for the time being).

Good news. Here's hoping it has a good budget and it will be a good adaptation.

Well, that sure is a Narou novel summary. And if I had to come up with a Narou novel parody, I don't think I could do better than that just-barely-PEP-8-compliant-in-Japanese title.

Anyway, spreadsheet updated.

What exactly does the bolded part mean?

One small correction, the manga artist's name is not Takashi Ohmae, it's Takafumi Oomae, according to Seven Seas' cover of the manga.

Kind of sounds like a Banished style story but it seems pretty popular!

Man, we really are pushing the boundaries on the amount of words for a title on an anime, aren't we?

PEP 8 is the official style guide for Python code, which among other things says lines should be limited to a maximum of 79 characters -- which happens to be the exact length of the Japanese title of this series.

The rest of the bolded part just means that said title is exactly what I'd expect the title of a parody of Narou novels to sound like, to the point that it literally has "zamaa" in it.
