This is not an official announcement yet, but pictures came out showing that Volume 3 of the manga announces an anime adaptation on the cover. It is official enough that ANN covered it, so I thought it was worth sharing here. Synopsis of the source manga from AniList:

Fashionable and upbeat high schooler Aya falls head over heels for an employee at a local CD shop. He's got an air of mystery about him, great style, and an impeccable music taste. Little does she know—this supposedly male employee is actually her female classmate Mitsuki! Mitsuki generally keeps to herself, but since her seat is right next to Aya's, she can't help but be extremely aware of the other's crush. Revealing the truth is out of the question for Mitsuki—but perhaps getting closer to Aya wouldn't be so bad...

On one hand I'm really happy about this possibility, on the other, I'm not sure how well it'll go considering how big part of the story revolves around real, popular music. I'm sure they'll be able to come up with decent replacements for whatever tracks they won't be able to license but still...

I guess we'll see how it turns out.

Hm, I can't imagine there's enough material for more than a movie

I think that the premiere is probably pretty far out yet. I remember reading before that an average season of anime takes roughly 3 years to make when starting from scratch (not continuing a series). So, it could be some time yet.

Though, if you are only doing your coloring with green, maybe it's faster? /s
