For the record there have been a few anime versions of this already, their titles were:
1. Haiyoru! Nyaruani ... which had nine 2 minute eps - often these can be found all bundled together in one file. This is the ONA, I believe.
2. Haiyoru! Nyaruani: Remember my Mr. Lovecraft ... which had eleven 5 minute eps officially, but had an extra ep added on towards the end (i.e. 12). This is the "official series season 1", I guess.
And what Xebec will be doing will be the "official series season 2", most likely.
These are based on a LN series ... a manga adaptation exists and I think there has been a drama cd released as well....
Anyhoo ... for those who did not know there is a thread on the shows that have aired which can be found
HERE.

Umm ... I hate to say this, but....
Let's see....Here is a pic of the "cast" from the 5 minute ep series:
From left to right we have the Lovecraft mythos deities: Nyarle (?), Cthulu, Nyarlathotep, Atlach-Nacha (?).
So ... umm ... yeah. They DID "moeify" Cthulu.

On other fronts one of the reasons why I like this story is precisely
because it pokes fun at Lovecraft's stories.
