No surprises about this - but fingers crossed it ends up being decent. It's one of the better series in Shonen Jump at the moment. The manga is quite slow paced though, so will be interesting to see how they adapt it for telly - it feels like they very slowly building toward something in the manga, so it's hard to see where they'd put a logical ending point in the anime.
