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.

They have almost nothing in common.

I was talking about the success of making an anime from an 4-panel manga

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

Looks interesting, plus the seiyuu were awesome so why not?

Worth a try by the looks of it. A series like this could go in all three directions (up, down or nowhere).
