Japanese literati Miyazawa Kenji's short story 'The Biography of Gusukoobutori (グスコーブドリの伝記)' to be animated

The details on this anime are rather scant at the moment, though we do know that the director is Sugii Gisaburo (杉井ギサブロー), who has an interesting track record as:

• Animation Director of Kanashimi no Belladonna (1973)
• Director of Tale of Genji (1987)

Both Kanashimi no Belladoona and Tale of Genji are masterpieces that no one ever seems to know anything about. And I also noticed that he directed another adaptation of Miyazawa's short story in Night on the Galactic Railroad (1985).

For the record, I have a feeling that Biography of Gusukoobutori is likely to become yet another masterpiece that no one ever seems to know anything about.

For crying out loud, watch Night on the Galactic Railroad already, it's undoubtedly one of his best works.

And don't worry, the people at the AniPages BBS knew about this already.
