Aw poo poo yes

100% watching for sure:
Phoenix Wright - simulwatching with my buds
Jojo - note to self, hurry up and marathon Egypt Arc
And you thought there is never a girl online? - Please let this be hilariously terrible
Sakamoto desu ga? - i don't know anything about this and I don't want to because I hear it's gonna be rad and I want to go in blind

I love SOL:
Pan de Peace! - I can only think of this as "Koufuku Graffiti, except just for bread", and I hope it'll be what I expect of this genre.
Sansha Sanyou - I trust Dogakobo in this genre.
Flying Witch - to appease my good chum Oui_Honeydew

Maybe?:
Kuma Miko - Definite 3-episode test based on the premise.

I legitimately liked Inou Battle, but it was a pretty blatant LN-advertisement, and, since the MC is a terrible Chuuni bastard and writes using all sorts of obscure alternate kanji readings and whatnot, nobody will ever even attempt to translate the LNs. They barely touched on the most interesting point of the show, that being that there was apparently all sorts of supernatural warfare going on in the outside world at the same time the primary cast were playing around with their powers in their higschool clubroom.

Similar to Noucome in that regard (mostly tangential to the interesting bits), but at least with Noucome people are working on turning it into English.

God, Noucome was such an unsatisfyingly-ended adaptation.
Then recently some dude was summarizing events in later volumes on /a/ and it was just like, this is LN as all hell and I am now morbidly curious about the Cliff's Notes.

The Kyotoma (JK Meshi!) animation studio announced on Thursday that it is animating an original anime titled Bishōjo Yūgi Unit Crane Geeru (Beautiful Girl Play Unit Crane Game Girls). The anime will premiere on Tokyo MX on April 6 at 10:00 p.m., and later on BS Fuji on April 11 at 1:00 a.m. Each anime part of the episode will be five minutes long, and each live-action segment will be 16 minutes long and will feature the cast playing arcade crane games.

The story centers on three girls: Mirai, Ayaka, and Kyōko. The three are the only ones who can save Earth from being destroyed by a group of asteroids. They are hired by Sayo, the representative of a shadowy organization, and the organization starts work on turning them into an idol group. While the trio are more than prepared to be idols, they are instead taken into an arcade.

JoJo CR subs had certain name changes for what I think are legal reasons, which is slightly jarring when you hear one music artist reference but read another. I've come to be okay with it though i think.

Are Oingo Boingo known for being particularly litigious?

I dunno, it's just my assumption. Maybe it's not the act proper, but folks handling the rights, or something.

Though sometimes the changes are a little endearing, like how Steely Dan got referred to as Dan of Steel.

I like how Over Justice in Space Patrol Luluco is pretty clearly Tengen Toppa Inferno Cop, complete with fancier sunglasses and purple flame effects. And also he's still clipart. I guess even a promotion can't give you more animation frames.

I think they outright said he's Inferno Cop's boss, actually.

I don't know, but they sure are putting in the effort. Current Crunchyroll video listing for Kiznaiver - fourteen short promo videos and Episode 0, a half-hour 'making of' documentary.

Yeah, and they even had a super early "watch the first two episodes" breakfast event at Anime Boston. Plenty of promoting.
