Hopefully this will encourage Viz to start putting this out in print.

Animation style looks appealing, and the manga’s humor should translate well, so this will probably be a winner.

I've heard this is a cute and fun series and that translates well to anime form judging by that trailer!

The manga is a lot of fun so good news (most likely).

Amazing that this author has done 3 Mangas with anime adaptations for each (though sket dance was never finished). Hopefully this anime gets a long run.

This was my immediate thought when seeing the news. It's "now" (more like within the next 12-18 months) or never.

Though I expect Viz to be hesitant on this and waiting to see if the anime is successful before making a decision, like they did for Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Part 1 and Haikyu!!. They're more hesitant when it comes to the genres that traditionally don't do as well (sports, gag comedies), especially if it's long (or has the potential to be).

If the anime isn't a hit with audiences, I'll consider the door for Viz publishing it physically hermetically sealed (and pray for Seven Seas to consider it instead).

I didn't expect Bibury as the studio, this makes me worried that this is done by the B-Team while the most talented staff works on 100gf.
I really love Witch Watch, it's been my favorite manga to read in Jump alongside One Piece and Undead Unluck since it came out.
