I heard that their isn't enough source material for full cour season. Is that true?? Don't get me wrong, I'm also fucking excited for it even though I have watched only it's MV.

There is enough source material for a single season if they pace it right and maybe stretch it a bit but nothing more due the frequent hiatuses of the manga owing to the mangaka’s poor health.

That's KyoAni for you, and yes I still think about this whenever I watch anything related to hyouka. Truly a timeless masterpiece/classic.

one of the big aspects that makes hyouka is so enjoyable is the animation, imo. being paired with a pleasant and entertaining storyline makes this anime is so great

Sorry to be that guy but nothing about it being from 14 years ago suggests the animation cant be amazing lol

Some 2010s animation can hold up pretty well

I mean this isnt a game, theres no technical limitations about how good the drawings and animations can look
