Shounen Jump has opened a teaser website for a TV anime adaptation of the manga ēlDLIVE. The series will be adapted by Studio Pierrot and air in 2017.

ēlDLIVE is drawn by Akira Amano and was originally published in full color in August 2013 as part of Jump LIVE. The series later moved to the Shounen Jump+ digital platform in September 2014.

Four compiled volumes of the manga have been published by Shueisha, with a fifth volume scheduled for March 4, 2016. According to Amano, the first volume sold more copies than expected when it was released in 2013 and had to go into reprint.

Synopsis
Chuuta Kokonose is an orphan who lives with his aunt. For as long as he can remember, he's had a voice in his head, but other than that he's a normal boy—right until the day when a strange-looking thing follows him home and teleports him to a place filled with more fantastic creatures. It's a space police station, and Rein Brickke, the Chief of Solar System Department, tells him that he's been chosen by the computer as a possible candidate to join the police force. Misuzu Sonokata, a girl from Chuuta's school with an angelic face and ill temper who turns out to be one of Rein Brickke's subordinates, doesn't think him suitable for such a job. Chuuta, who was shocked at first, decides to take the aptitude test after being urged by the voice in his head and to prove Misuzu wrong. (Source: MAL)

Didn't even know the manga existed.

I hope the character designer for the anime is:

So I guess this is what caused KHR! goods to suddenly appear everywhere... In any case, I'm happy for Amano. Hopefully this time things will go smoothly.
As for the anime, the character design of KHR!'s anime was pretty close to the original art, so that's one thing I'm worried about with a different studio.
Anyway, I haven't been reading this for a while, but I'm looking forward to the adaption.

I didn't even know Amano Akira had a new series out. I loved Katekyo Hitman Reborn, one of my favourite shonen series. I'll keep my eyes peeled for this. hopefully it's good lol.

I think it was publishing through some kind of mobile app, so it was most likely hard to get chapters and with so few of them the quality was not so good. Can't say much for the story, but the start was pretty much nothing special and expected similar to reborn. Still liked reborn a lot so at least will try it.

Oh I wanted to read this, couldn't find the chapters anywhere though. Will be looking forward to the anime! I loved KHR.
Pierrot has screwed up just about every manga adaption they've touched, but at least Akatsuki no Yona was done right, don't despair just yet guys

Well that's because KonoSuba is being done by Studio Deen, not Pierrot.

Well, like others have already stated, Pierrot being attached to this has made me lose any faith in it being decent. But who knows, maybe it could be a surprise like Akatsuki no Yona.....probably won't happen, but still.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol.

They already have Osomatsu-san for that and I don't see how they can cash-in more with a series run in a mobile app.

Cool.
I will definitely watch this because it's from the same author that made Katekyo Hitman Reborn!

Hopefully after they finish with this one, they will finally animate the entire Hitman Reborn manga.

Was Pierrot always this hated? Granted most of their productions are mediocre....
Imagine a berserk anime by Yoshiaki kawajiri at Madhouse.

Now take a look at Berserk (2016).

Considering they murdered two of the most beloved shounen series of all time (they drove Bleach into the ground with filler and ruined everything good about Tokyo Ghoul in their adaptation past about episode 6), AND they are dragging out Shippuuden to the point that any fan of it I ask about the situation begins throthing at the mouth and convulsing...yeah I'd consider most people's incredulousness warranted.

The reason KHR ending was shitty was because Jump axed it (AKA forced Amano to stop the manga right at the moment it lose popularity) Hence, the ending was rushed. Amano probably has more ideas for it.

This manga will probably not get axed since it's basically the face of Jump+ (literally. They replace that deer guy from one piece in the jump+ home page with Drew, a character from eldlive) and it get all page full-color for the whole series, so... yeah XD

Hope this change your mind~!
