The March issue of Kadokawa Shoten's Ciel magazine is announcing on Saturday that plans for a television anime adaptation of Shungiku Nakamura's Sekai-ichi Hatsukoi boys-love manga are in the works. The story follows the tension between a newly recruited manga editor and his tyrannical editor-in-chief — who happen to share a common past.
Nakamura also created the Junjo Romantica manga, which was previously adapted into two television anime seasons in 2008. Tokyopop published the Junjo Romantica manga in North America, while The Right Stuf International licensed both of its television anime seasons. Nakamura inserted some characters from Junjo Romantica into Sekai-ichi Hatsukoi.
For the BL fangirls~ o.o;

"Which road do I take?" she asked.
"Where do you want to go?" responded the Cheshire cat.
"I don't know," Alice answered.
"Then," said the cat, "it doesn't matter."

Quote from Dated for 2011
The January issue of Kadokawa Shoten's Ciel magazine is announcing on Tuesday that the television anime adaptation of Shungiku Nakamura's Sekai-ichi Hatsukoi boys-love manga will premiere next April. The magazine had already announced this past January that an anime was in the works, and an anime DVD will ship with the fifth volume of the manga next March.
The story follows the tension between a newly recruited manga editor named Ritsu Onodera (Takashi Kondo) and his tyrannical editor-in-chief named Masamune Takano (Katsuyuki Konishi) — who happen to share a common past.
Chiaki Kon (When They Cry - Higurashi) is directing the anime series at Studio DEEN, and Rika Nakase (Rocket Girls) is supervising the scripts. Yoko Kikuchi (Noir, Tsubasa Tokyo Revelations) is designing the characters. All of them had previously worked together on the anime adaptation of Nakamura's Junjō Romantica boys-love manga, and they are also working on the manga-bundled anime DVD. A website will open with more information about the television series.

Aaaand, the first episode finally came out!! X3
It was pure bliss. The OP are nice, but I presonally prefer the ED - the song is great. As for the show itself... go, watch it now! Beautiful animation, talent seiyuu... The manga was already great, but getting animated made it great even more so. 😉

The series is going well so far... I like the little details and high quality of the animation, they managed to adapt the manga nicely, like junjou romantica, it's also a good thing the series is only 12 chapters long, so every episode is entertaining. 🙂 Good for Nakamura-sensei!
