The news came out yesterday, as its official website appeared and annonced on it's front p page (
http://gineiden-anime.com/) that a new anime project was to be produced.
This announcement even made the "Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu" tag on the japanese twitter appear in the "trend" section!

I am really excited to see all this happen! This summer is incredibly rich in great news from the license! The books being translated soon will probably give us a hint of what we can expect from the new anime, so we can indeed say they came in perfectly good timing!
What are your expectations towards the new series? Are you going to hint the books while waiting for it?
