A scan from the upcoming issue of Gangan Joker magazine reveals that 4-panel manga Gugure! Kokkuri-san will receive a TV anime adaptation.

Some of the cast for the series were also revealed in the scan:

Kokkuri-san: Daisuke Ono
Kohina Uchmatus: Ryou Hirohashi
Inugami: Takahiro Sakurai
Jigaraki: Jouji Nakata

Synopsis
The story revolves around a little girl named Kohina. Kohina ends up summoning a Kokkuri-san, a low-ranking ghost in Japanese folklore. The Kokkuri-san she calls turns out to be a white-haired, handsome young man. At first he had intended to merely haunt her, but soon he becomes worried about her terrible eating habit of cup ramen for every meal. He later decides to haunt her in order to protect her.

I just read the first chapter of the manga and it was kinda silly. So many anime adaptations lately. This one is kinda on my low priority list though.

Yes this does sound silly. They had me at 'one cup of ramen for every meal'.

I'm curious how they'll adapt this. First chapter was so random it barely made me smile.

Wonder if it will be a 5-minute show, it would be more befitting for the series.

I just read the manga and like Stark said, it was silly. Silly but a bit funny. I'll keep an eye out for this one.

Not sure what to think about the synopsis, but with those seiyuu I have enough motivation for the very first episode :O

Worth a try by the looks of it. A series like this could go in all three directions (up, down or nowhere).
There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do.

Kohina makes my heart skip beats from just looking at her, she's more adorable than Yune.

Read the first chapter and it's cute and kind of funny...

But got sold at Ono D anyway. So yeah I'll watch.

Ono's character looks like a ripoff of Tomoe from Kamisama Kiss though.
