The anime visual fixed the Hinomaru Zumou designs so it should have a better potential to see success, I found the characters to look significantly hotter in the anime design than what they were in the manga. Hype for more characters to appear.
My guess would be Winter 2019
Your probably right fall may be too soon for it
Not necessarily, some fall shows are still being revealed even this week (that hobby life LN anime was revealed and announced for october for example)...
I was reading the latest chapter the other day, and I honestly think it’s some of the best paneling I’ve ever seen. His depiction of action scenes is just perfect, and it’s literally getting better every chapter. You can certainly see how much he’s grown as an artist, even just looking at chapters from 6-12 months ago. It’s a shame his first series had to be on sumo and it’s so unpopular, but I don’t think there’s any doubt the guy will become absolutely massive with a future series. He’s a genius and definitely one of the best talents of recent years.

It seems people really got excited by that rumoured staff list. They started talking to Ishiguro on twitter about directing Neverland, something he never even got an offer to do. He worries that this may cause the people he's working with to think, "Did Ishiguro accept a job in secret?", though he doubts that will happen. He then says this kind of information is also troublesome to the creators.
It's worth pointing out that Yonkou didn't even start the rumors.
That was the sleuthing done by Baidu (?) but Ishiguro says that he's a fan of the work. It must have simply have been a coincidence that he started following Posuka's account at that time.
Even then he's going to have to be cautious, especially for a highly anticipated series like Neverland. He is one of the primary information "outlets" to like half the world.
