This doesn't mean Shaft won't make Prism Nana into a real anime, as it has garnered some popularity, but I won't hold my breath. |

Oh! I love SHAFT (particularly what they did with PaniPoni, Zetsubou Sensei, ef, Arakawa and what they are doing with the Monogatari series), but these won't make me forget their very guilty past... turning REC into vanilla, the lolicon-fest called Goshujin-sama, both of Tsukuyomi season finales, and SoulEater shipped to THE moeblob studio to squeeze out the last yen out of it with Komugi... Shina Dark and Prism Nana are nothing compared to those let downs
Still even genre/audience-wise, mahou shoujo (like AKB-whatever) is more appropriate for pachinko then Gundam... which is really pissing me off with its endless advertisements here

1. Rec and Goshujin-sama were both titles that were done without Shinbou's involvement (with Goshujin-sama being a joint effort with Gainax); 2. It's Soultaker, not Soul Eater; 3. In terms of Soultaker, SHAFT wasn't involved in it, but Shinbou was, and even then he was only involved in the regular series, not the Komugi spin-off.

Oh! as for (3) that was my point... SoulEaterTaker was awesome, but then Shinbou/SHAFT shipped the franchise to KyoAni for moeblob-milking, as usual Back to Nana, I am pretty sure that leaving all these rumors hover about an upcoming anime was definitely intentional (like Shina Dark), in order to get more people interested in the franchise, whether it eventually led into an anime or just more rip-off viral marketing. And let me be more clear that I don't blame the studio for planning it, but for submitting to those that did so... therefore the examples I gave... SHAFT suffers from the "we are a tiny studio with potential" syndrome, submitting to money, despite being able to stay true to its principles, GAINAX and KyoAni are other examples with different symptoms, but the same cause.

They may no longer have any new PVs to post, but they can still post the final interview about PV #7.

Whether it becomes a real anime isn't really up to SHAFT to decide on their own. It depends on whether a production committee is formed that wants to fund it. Time will tell.

But let me revise a little your optimistic assumptions, it's not up to SHAFT, rather the suites that will pay them for an even more expensive advertisement of their legal gambling franchise... also Nana wasn't a typical SHAFT creativity example, but the studio experimenting with different (and potentially new) collaborators
