Well, you've probably seen Hasbro's latest GI Joe press release in the Toy forum:

So now we know when Studio GONZO's GI Joe anime is set to start in September, and that it will be a weekly series. I couldn't possibly be more excited about this unless it was announced that the project is being spearheaded by writer/director Imagawa Yasuhiro, of Giant Robo: The Animation, Mobile Fighter G Gundam, and Violinist of Hamlin, the greatest writer working in the industry in my opinion.
Anyone who isn't familiar with Studio GONZO's work, I urge you to visit these links:
http://www.faf.jp/ Click on the image, click "Click to Enter", MOVIE, and then click on each of the four promotion videos.
http://www.gonzo.co.jp/anime_ao6/ And just poke around this one.
Yukikaze and Blue Submarine No.6 are the most relevant of their previous projects in terms of what the GI Joe series may look like. I'll be eagerly waiting for September!
