The wait between 2017 and the original announcement from 2014 + the insolvent if IG (only Madhouse is better) means that we may get Yamoto remake levels of animation and production values. I have no idea how they will even try to match the legendary original voice cast but we will see and i couldn´t be happier that the best long from anime of all time will get a chance to find a new audience.
I love the Death Note anime (it screws up the manga´s second half though) but a new generation will get to see how a tactician protagonist needs to look like as Reinhard von Lohengramm would have put Lelouch on toilet scrubbing duty.

It further took the original team 13 years to adapt all the novels and the new Yamato will also last for quite some time so now our watch begins. Final episode in 2030 here we come...

I strongly suspect that the success of the Yamato remake and the recent Macross, Gundam and Lupin III franchise extensions is the driver here.

Production IG does excellent work when the budget is high enough. Color me optomistic.
