Now SaiAni reports that it'll be made into another OVA, this time 13 volumes (presumably those are single-episode DVDs, although it's hard to say). It'll be directed by Katsuhito Akiyama, who directed the original OVA as well as the original El-Hazard and the Bubblegum Crisis OVA. Conceptual art will be done by Production I.G's Atsushi Takeuchi, who directed an episode of the recent Star Wars: The Clone Wars CG TV series and has done design work on everything from Cromartie High School to Tenchi Universe to End of Evangelion. The animation production will be done by Ken Media, which is best known for producing The Melody of Oblivion and even working on Fist of the North Star.
The official website for the OVA has already launched, and it should start seeing a release sometime in 2009.
