Publisher Softbank Creative has announced that Flash animation production studio DLE (Eagle Talon) will produce a Flash Haiyoru! Nyaru-Ani anime adaptation of author Manta Aisora’s “high-tension, chaotic comedy” light novel series Haiyore! Nyaruko-san. The novels star high school boy Mahiro Yasaka who encounters the Cthulhu mythos god Nyarlathotep, who inexplicably chooses to appear as a cute silver-haired girl. Aisora’s H.P. Lovecraft & moé inspired light novel series premiered this past April. The third book hits Japanese shelves this month, along with a new drama CD.

The “Cthulhu mythos” created by American writer H.P. Lovecraft (1890-1937) has been quite influential in anime. References to the mythology Lovecraft created have appeared in anime including Iczer-One, Armitage the III, Digimon, Dirty Pair, Demonbane, and Soul Eater.
