All depends on which style they choose. The original was kinda schizo, alternating between slapstick and serious. FUMOFU, on the other hand, was pure comedy and absolutely hysterical. I hope it's the latter.

FUMOFFU was terrible.
S1 was alright.
S2 was excellent.

Hope we get more like TSR.

FUMOFFU is the greatest anime comedy in history, I love it. I think duplicating the success of the original series will be almost impossible. It had such a strange, unique tone that the remake almost certainly ends up being some super-serious adaptation with much better animation.
