[Anime] The Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan Unveiled...Invisibly?

Okay, that's weird. At some point this morning the main page of the SOS Dan website went offline. However, for those savvy enough to decipher what was going on (not I said the fox), there was a hidden message in white on white text below the notice.

That text had the following message, as per the Anime News Network article: "The Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan docomo android" along with a link to the Docomo store. Android devices on the Docomo NTT service received even more info with the following:

"2013/12/18
The Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan Anime Adaptation in the Works Haruhi-chan & Churuya-san are also being distributed!"

Definitely interesting and for fans of the series, a bit surprising. I didn't entirely expect to see a series off of the official Puyo spin-off at all.

For those not in the know, here's the run down of The Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan from Yen Press, publisher of it and the Haruhi manga in the US:
This spin-off of the Haruhi Suzumiya series takes place in the world of the "Disappearance" arc of the original novels, focusing on the high school life (and romance!) of a tentative and bashful Yuki Nagato quite unlike the one you've come to know and love through the usual exploits of the SOS Brigade... but no less charming! 
It's not the third season that many Haruhi fans had been hoping for, especially given the amount of light novels that have come out since the original series went off the air, but at least it's something. I'm very much curious and I'll be following this one to see what comes of it...so stay tuned!
