Have you seen any of it? It's quite the heartwarming show and full of HNGGG, so I think you'd like it.
Didn't think it would be that hard to find. I remember seeing it on Anime Network like a year ago.

By the end of next year, all animegaf regulars will be watching Gintama.
And then maybe branch out into other long running shounen.
Duckroll posting old news. Tsk tsk.
Happy consumers day!

So I take it that it was a cliffhanger ending?

I celebrate Happy Consumer's Day.
Actually I celebrate Christmas, but not religiously. For my family it's just an excuse for us to get together and exchange gifts.

It made the "lulz we'll be back in April" hurt more.

Wait.... There is a deeper meaning to Christmas?
I thought it was just the day that people give me anime blu-ray's and ask why I like that weird stuff.

It's a fanwork based on Heidi
That intent was strange. And talking about this, some days ago I saw a report on NHK WORLD that presented facts about this project and the resurrection of the interest for toy companies in financing completely new animated shows.
Apparently, BANPRESTO not only put the 100% of the budget, but also various particular premises to take better advantage of the product (although at first they said to them "do what you like"), like "how many characters would be in it" or "what particular traits each character would have" and similar things that Toei Animation and Rie Matsumoto had to abide. The funny thing was when they mentioned the playful bickering between them, with anecdotes like "we in BANPRESTO wanted the protagonist to have an over-sized weapon, but when they presented us the design and we saw that this weapon was transparent with differently sized balls inside, we were thinking how exactly we were going to manufacture cheaply such a thing for a simple capsule toy" and many others. In the end, they said they liked the experience in collaborating with each other, though.
Of course, they planned exhaustively what type of product to make and what demographics appeal to; "Late-teens-to-mid-20's on both genders" was mentioned, based in their statistics on majority of users from their bpnavi.jp platform (that has 2 million users approx.), and this was why they used primarily a video streaming method of immediate distribution for it.
The most interesting things said is that, according to BANPRESTO's Shigeru Hirata, their biggest desire is to make either a series or a movie, they want to do it for sure, but they'll have to wait and see the reception for this project before. And that they are also waiting for more works to be made this way. Time will tell!
After seeing this very good releases by BANDAI Visual (their last Blu-ray products, for example the PATLABOR ones, have been consistently good), I wish they would have waited to give the same treatment to a series like Sherlock Hound, instead of the 'EMOTION the best' DVD-BOX made available early this year (http://product.bandaivisual.co.jp/web_service/shop_product_info.asp?item_no=BCBA-3977).
True, that had to hurt...
very nice.

Stop giving Type-Moon ideas for another heroic spirit in their next Fate/* project.
Also, turns out the actors for the Code Geass musical, when in costume, look like...
...two guys cosplaying as Lelouch and Suzaku. Big surprise, I know.
Compare and contrast to the Persona 4 stage play cast in costume, I guess:
You have much to learn.Stop spreading lies.
What have I done to you?

Just for you, here's her actress, Minami Tsukui, out of costume (other three actors/actress at the link as well):
By the way, how many other anime have had stage adaptations? Only two I can think of are Bleach and Prince of Tennis.
Working'!! 13 END
A pretty good end to a really well done series. Overall it was far better handled than the first series and I hope we see another one soon, preferably with more Maya and Yamada-kun.
