I love the art style on those manga covers!
Yes, it is nice – I like the last one especially
So… Library Wars minus the guns?
hehe Looks like they will wield swords
It might turn out good because Kuroshitsuji’s director and writer are involved 
Series composition by Mari Okada, who did so many of some of the better animes around (true tears,simoun)…haha. i’m half-sold on this
Yes, it might be good
Woah, the artwork is lovely. Librarian war? Haha, the first thought that came to mind was something concerning books. Or maybe, humor… but certainly not swords!
Oh, there will be plenty of humor I bet, given Okada’s taste
