Viz Media have revealed their plans to partner with Hollywood’s “United Talent Agency” in an effort to produce more live action adaptations of their anime and manga, an event that many have been concluding will be the desecration of yet more beloved franchises.
Hollywood has been known to produce anime adaptations of varying quality, and whether it be due to making unnecessary changes, poor costumes or downright unfaithfulness mention of “Hollywood anime adaptations” now strikes fear into the hearts of more than a few anime fans.
Not much else was revealed on the subject, in particular who the next victim will be…
All you need is Berserk!
Have they seriously not learned by now?
Hollywood + anime = s♥♥t movie
They will butcher it to no end to appeal to western audiences and they have no respect for anything related to the source material. All that matters to them is money, plain and simple.
Case in point: Dragonball Evolution
Movie: Black Lagoon
Director: Quentin Tarantino
Edge of Tomorrow gets better when you didn’t read the source material. In fact, AFTER I read the source, I was angry that the source was so bad…
wtf?
Yeah, when you can manipulate “time” save points AT FUCKING WILL it’s logically impossible to fail… So stupid the ending was.
Haven’t read the manga or watched the movie. Still, I say they lose points for using such a horribly generic title. All you need is All You Need Is Kill.
Please god, make them stop.
Wouldn’t mind Kodomo no Jikan adaptation.
Have they finally run out of capeshit?
