I hope it will be good but, if not, I hope it will at least drum up interest in the original series, which should be on everyone's Top 10 Anime list.

I wonder if this is based on the Irresponsible Kids novels? I never got a chance to read them and have only heard about them years ago. Were the novels ever translated?

I like to hope this character will have some manner of connection to the lieutenant of the original series with the same name. For long-standing fans, it'd be almost cruel to do otherwise.

So far none of the novels have been translated, my love for Tylor is so deep that I imported them(not The Irresponsible Kids but all the Tylor-centric ones) and took a few steps to translate them myself but I haven't got very far yet, basically self-teaching myself to read Kanji. Someone will probably beat me to it but as long as it gets done I will be supremely happy.

I just watched the show and the 10 episode OVA not too long ago. The last few episodes of the OVA which you watch after the show started this new conflict and they didn't finish it. It literally ends as a cliffhanger like Berserk did (although not as bad). I always wondered if they would ever adapt the rest of Tylors story despite the production being 20 plus years ago. Seeing this provides at most a glimmer of hope of that being done but I doubt it. I am assuming the anime is an adaptation of the novels.
