I;m surprised that it looks like Aniplex has no involvement with this. With NishiOshin behind this you'd figure they'd want to jump on it. Though it makes Gainax doing it a bit weirder...still pretty excited though.

It's typical for first promotional videos of anime to just feature conceptual art or basic animation character designs for it and show off some of the its style. They're basically meant to be feelers for what to expect in the show.

As for the show, I never read Medaka Box, but it'll be pretty odd imagining GAINAX doing a show with NisiOisin-type dialouge (even though Anno used to roam there before). It seems like they might be following former collaborator SHAFT's footprints with the Monogatari-style visuals, though I do question Shouji Saeki at the helm and pen, given his lackluster resume.
