House of Five Leaves was 12 episodes and aired as such. It's not an unprecedented situation.

I'll reserve judgement on the pacing of this adaptation until I see how Watanabe intends to handle it. Without being familiar with the manga, my best guess is that its slice-of-life nature will make it possible for him to cherry-pick stories from throughout its run without the overall product feeling too disjointed. At least there's a low chance of it having the non-ending that has plagued many an adaptation.
