The first “official” Touhou anime has been announced.

The anime project is to be produced by ufotable, and is intended as a celebration of the 10th anniversary of anime store Animate’s mascot character “Anime Tencho” (“anime store manager”), probably best known internationally for his appearances on Lucky Star, although otherwise his anniversary is likely a matter of supreme indifference even to Japanese anime fans.

Though apparently not an immediate indication of a full TV anime, speculation now centres on the prospect of a full anime now Touhou appears finally to have received permission for a formal anime adaptation (as opposed to the earlier doujin affair).

This is actually pretty surprising, considering ZUN's reaction to the fanimu. It could turn out if they have him on the writing staff, though.
