There are currently only 2 volumes out, so the source material will be quite limited. Regardless, I'm quite excited and look forward to seeing which staff will be working on this!

A pretty cute promo came out. No actual footage yet, but Yune's voice seem pretty appropriate.

[MisaoFan]

Yune's seiyu is Sayuri Yahagi when I heard the voice.

It's always interesting to see people of different culture interact with each other, so I'm looking forward to this show. Just hope the anime can keep the gorgeous and crispy art as the manga.

[Kunagisa]

Feel free to ogle at how awesome this will be. Yune~~~

A vid with the same footage has been uploaded to the website, but with different BGM, which is very fitting too imo.

Yune's seiyuu is Touyama Nao (Nakagawa Kanon from KamiNomi)

[ars89]

yune's soo kawaii!

[OceanBlue]

I'm somewhat more interested in the atmosphere than Yune's cuteness. I'm definitely interested in this series though.

Wow, pretty dead thread her (also, the other Croisee thread needs to be merged in) but ANN is reporting that the third DVD/BD will have an unaired episode, link
