I would love for this to happen, but... well, just like Zakeru said.
I wonder if we'll ever get uncensored version if it'll be anime. :D

Well, there's always the drama CD, starring Koshimizu Ami and Chihara Minori as Fran and Veronica. :D

Franken Fran would definitely have to be handled carefully, but I think this anime would be fucking gold.

All they have to do is give it an appropriate rating and find a studio that knows how to animate gore well, but that wont over do it. The story would easily be handled by the content of the manga, I just hope that if they did it they could incorporate the chapter end humor into like transition screens or something. I always found myself incredibly excited for the pictures that would come at the end of the chapters.

Over the last few years, anime got a lot less gory, reducing even showing blood to minimum, sometimes even merely implying violence. I know about "Hellsing Ultimate", with it's ripping bodies apart and rape every now and then when Victoria showed up, but it doesn't change general direction. But judging by it's popularity, it's what people want. "Shingeki no Kyojin", probably the loudest anime right now next to Kill la Kill, also breaks out of "reduce violence" rule, even to the point where you can accuse authors of hard vore fetish. So I believe anime is turning back and slowly heading back to the point where character could punch someone few times and watch as they explode from the inside. Maybe not now, but if we continue moving in this direction, we might hear someone started doing "Franken Fran" anime in few years.

If this happens, I think it would be destinated to become popular and increase gore popularity. Not as popular as Dragon Ball, Bleach and stuff like that, but something so unusual would get attention. It's bizarrely cute and some people consider it scary. While I don't find it scary at all, I understand why one could be. I'd compare it to "Goosebumps" in this manner. It is scary if you want it to be. Or if it happens to show something you're really scared of.

It's also really heavy dark humor. Not many really like this stuff, but no matter how unhappy and bloody the end is, there's a always moral. Like: If you do everything for your loved one, she'll eat you... Damn, I wanted a moral example, not dark humor... but that's charming. You never know will the story turn out to be the one with gruesome happy end or gruesome bad end.

The other important thing: When you watch Hellsing, much of this blood give strange feeling. Like there's too much of it. It's almost as if a small kid tried to create cool character, so he mutilates everyone, because there's no other way to show how badass he is. I personally liked Alucard the most for how he tormented Integra every time before she started yelling "search and destroy", but it's not important. In "Franken Fran", you have things that could make puke even the biggest "Hellsing" fan. Yet it's all perfectly justified. It feels much more integrated with a story. Yet it's still only integrated with the story, not turning into it.

Obviously, as the others stated already, making this anime would require surgical precision (ha-ha-ha). If handled incorrectly, it could turn into a bloody mess. The creators should be aware of a meaning of my previous paragraph. What would be pretty cool is if they made operation scenes completely different than normal animation. Maybe static images of what's happening or make them simplistic and colorless, giving the impression of slight insanity. Not exactly glorifying them, but aesthetically different. After all, these are the climaxes of almost each chapter. But it should be alright as long as they'd remember it's really sick and dark comedy, not really bloody and bloody blood.

Unfortunately I don't see this happening. I don't think there's much of a market for horror comedy anime in Japan. I find they tend to go live action for that genre for whatever reason (see Uzumaki).

Well it wont happen mostly due to how goresome the manga is. Many horror mangas don't get ported to anime saddly.
Although they made Kings Game recently, but it did got tuned down a little.
