Actually, reading the article myself, they are remaking the anime (second paragraph). The reference to the books is stating that the anime was based off of them.
And I wouldn't say that they're stuck for ideas. At least in regards to their animated features, Disney has been adapting prexisting stories (fairy tale and folk lore) since the very beginning (i.e: Snow White). This just seems like a move to start adapting more contemporary, and keep in mind that this is a method of exposure to something amazing (Kikki) that a great deal of people haven't actually had yet. Truth be told, a lot of people's first exposure to classic stories came through Disney *shruggs* I say look at it as a tribute and you're a lot less likely to be offended ^^
Non, I was on many of the Japanese sites too and they said that it was based off the book, because they couldn't get the rights to the anime, or something like that. Not that it matters, or anything *wub*
And you're right, chi... I am no longer bitter after reading your comment. *feels better*
