Well, this could only indicate that the possible second season of the anime could come out later this year, or next year at the most. And that's a big COULD, since we have no confirmation yet.

FUNimation announced its acquisition of home entertainment, broadcast, digital, and merchandising rights to the 2010 Kuragehime (Jellyfish Princess) television series. The eleven-episode series will be released on domestic DVD & BD next year. FUNimation simulcast the series last fall.
The author of this manga, Akiko Higashimura, originally drew a short running series called 'Kuragehime heroes', in Kiss Plus magazine by Kodansha, but it wasn't included in the 'tankobon' (volume book) for the Kuragehime manga we know.
Yet these short mangas are going to included as a bonus in the upcoming DVD/BD for next year, to celebrate the premiere of the anime.
Could this open the possibility for OVAS in the future? ^_^
The official site of this outstanding series by Akiko Higashimura has added a new teaser trailer, that can be seen here (opens in a new window).
The anime will premiere on October 14 on Fuji TV's 'Noitamina' block.
It is the story of an otaku, jellyfish-obsessed college girl called Tsukimi who lives in a shared women-only apartment full of otakus, neets and fujoshis. After she invites a stylish lady friend to become her short-term roommate because she saw her saving a jellyfish from dying, she discovers that the stylish “lady” isn’t a lady at all.
In fact, this stylish and pretty gal is a cross dressing man who is a runaway from the inheritance of his father's occupation.
The manga is published by Kodansha in Kiss magazine since november 2008 and has received the Kodansha Shojo Award for best shojo manga and was nominated this year for Manga Taisho award. It has sold over a million copies already.
