The May issue of Shueisha's Bessatsu Margaret magazine is announcing on Saturday that a television anime of Ayuko Hatta's Wolf Girl & Black Prince (Ookami Shoujo to Kuro Ouji) shoujo manga has been green-lit.

The story centers around Erika Shinohara, a vain 16-year-old girl who tells her friends about her romantic exploits, but she actually has no boyfriend. She claims that a handsome boy in a candid photo is her boyfriend, but it turns out that boy is a schoolmate named Kyouya Sata. She has no choice but to make him her fake boyfriend. Unfortunately, Sata may look like a sweet person, but he is actually an ultra-black-hearted sadist. Sata takes advantage of Erika's weakness and treats her like his dog.

Kanae Itou will play Erika Shinohara in the anime, while Takahiro Sakurai will play Kyouya Sata. The rest of the cast includes:

Ai Kayano as Ayumi Santa
Mariya Ise as Marin Tachibana
Mikako Komatsu as Aki Tezuka
Nobunaga Shimazaki as Yoshito Kimura
Yoshitsugu Matsuoka as Nozomi Kamiya
Yoshimasa Hosoya as Takeru Hibiya
Ayumu Murase as Yuu Kusakabe
Hatta launched the manga in Bessatsu Margaret in 2011, and Shueisha published the eighth volume last December. The manga inspired a novel and a drama CD, which also stars Itou and Sakurai.

Pretty sure there's already a news article for this but I'll watch it. PV when? Also, it's kinda odd the entry says that each episode will be 20 minutes already. We still don't know when it airs yet or the studio. I'm guessing maybe Production IG. They are doing Ao Haru Ride this Summer so might as well grab this one too.

I'm so excited about this good news! I listened to the Drama CD, and the cast is awesome, specially Erika and Kyouya so I'm happy they're the same seiyuus for the anime. I can't wait!

Does anyone know when this will air?

Seriously loving the couple thus far ^^

Also, will the manga be finished before the anime production finishes or will the producers just wing the ending like "Say I Love You"

(Hope it's not just an OVA)

Yay the seiyuu cast finally announced. :3 And yes, I'll be watching it.

Most likely this will be a fall or winter show.

I still haven't caught up with the manga, don't know whether I will before the anime finally airs (it was kind of boring...maybe later it'll get better, I dunno).

Sakurai's the main guy's CV!! And overall the cast is so good! Most of the cast was also in Sukitte Ii na yo, but I didn't really like the adaption that much (love the manga).

Probably will still give the anime a chance.

I assume it might air this Fall.
I doubt the manga will finish before the anime production though. Expect 1 cour show and possibly an OVA in the future to be announced.

This sounds so empowering and positive and like a great inspirational story for young women looking to strengthen their minds and their sense of self worth, just like 50 Shades of Rape Fantasy.

Shoujo, so it will probably be nothing but fan service. Not interested.

Young women are reading manga to strengthen their minds and sense of self worth now? OK.

You seem to have seen and read a lot of shoujo.

The problem is that they aren't and that so many find escapism in fiction that is very detrimental to them. If you want to like it that bad then by all means no one is physically stopping you, but don't be shocked when others express some level of disgust with the premise.

Also I felt the need to come in because I saw the excuse "LOL you're guy you just don't get it".

^uhm obviously anime and manga are a form of escapism, nothing wrong with that.
I feel like people here are expecting something completely different when it is clearly labeled as a shoujo romance
I actually enjoy the manga quite a lot, despite him being a dick at first he does improve

I just hope a good studio/director will be in charge for it

Don't know what shoujo you're reading, but shoujo rarely has fanservice...

But yeah, I'm really excited because it looks so promising. The cast, the graphics, the plot; everything is practically perfect.

I'm hoping for these mangas to get their anime too:
~ Taiyou no Ie
~ Horimiya
~ Hibi Chouchou
~ Koe no Kitachi (shounen)

Oh and this manga bores me, but I'll still watch it.

Oh my god I was curious about this so I read a bit of the manga (just the first 2 chapters). And holy shit it is fucking hilarious. That dudes poverty NTR attempt was pretty funny too lol. I usually instantly ignore anything with a "Shoujo" label but I will be watching this when it starts.

Correct. However, "Shoujo" is listed on MAL's official list of "Genre Explanations".
See here: http://myanimelist.net/info.php?go=genre
So I don't blame people for getting confused.
