Wow, I was just reading the latest (English) volume last night and wondering if this could ever get an anime.

I don't expect it to be super-popular, but it should appeal to the same people who liked Sankarea and Mysterious Girlfriend X -- it's meaner than either of those, but it has the same kind of weird vibe.

Nothing specific, but the overall tone might cause problems. Vertical says they're having trouble getting some bookstores to carry the series:
