Title: What anime do you wanna see as live action?
Post by: Darryl Mendoza on January 15, 2006, 08:59:10 PM
I just wanted to know what anime you guys all wanted to see as a live action film. I personally wanna see some thing with alot of action, like Berserk. If they haven't done it already.

There was this mockup photo for a Yotsubato! dorama, which was quite cute. Same went for AzuDai.

I'd love to see any attempt at a live action ren'ai-based series -- AIR in particular. That'd be interesting to see how it plays out.

Urrrrrrrrrr, it'd be cool to see a live action GTO!

Seriously, though.  If you had to pick, it'd really be limited to something that isn't too off the wall with things like violence humor (which doesn't really translate well due to things like the deforming positions characters usually take) or would require vast amounts of special effects (for a TV show, the budget wouldn't be big enough to make it look very good)...  However, that doesn't mean there aren't plenty of shows left to work with.

I think that without it's unbearable designs (imo; try not to throw heavy things at my head), Initial D could be very interesting as a live-action show.

Toning down the T&A fest and focusing a little more on the character drama parts, Love Hina could take on a whole new appeal and--

Wait, what the hell am I saying?  Without the T&A, it's just Naru punching Keitaro in the face...

We all know what live-action  Gundam looks like, so let's not go there again, okay?

Synopsis be damned, I'm just gonna make a list of possible candidates:
Gunsmith Cats
Lupin III
Rurouni Kenshin
Samurai Champloo

Agree?  Disagree?  Additions to the list?

They've done GTO Live action.. It came out before the anime in 1998. Because it was so popular, the anime was made in 2000...

On another note, playing FF last night made me realize that it would be cool to see that in the flesh... I'm trying to imagine Advent Chilren, but I'm failing miserably...

Full Metal Panic: Fumoffu.  Hey, I thought the anime was hillarious, and a live action version would be good as well.

Wonder how they're going to pull off super-boob-inflating Asuna realistically.

Oh, wait, you can't.

CGI! you can do wonders with CGI! :p

as for me:

Noir
Bubblegum Crisis
Ninja Scroll(with CGI)
Nadesico(It also parodies Star Trek in the anime version)
Revolutionary Girl Utena
Sailor Moon S
Trinity Blood
Hellsing

I think that's it for now.

To Heart/To Heart 2
DearS
Mahoromatic
Puni Puni Poemi (HAHAHA!!!)
Hellsing

Hey, if they can do that Blueberry Girl in Wonka, I'd think boobs are child's play.

...

No pun intended.

Heh, they'll be doing CG for pretty much everything. Kyoto Arc <3 And if they need any actresses, I could... well, maybe not... Japanese skill is pretty basic. x.x Yuna or Akira I can do, though.

I'd like to see AIR and Kanon get Live Action series, too. :3

Hmm.... how about...

Kare Kano
Mahoraba
Fushigi Yuugi
Genshiken

Casshan!

Oh...wait... already done...

Uhhh.... Sailor Moon....

....darnit!!

Masked Rider!!

...

Utena...

>_<

HxH!

Done still...

I think that Bubblegum Crisis would make a great live-action with today's special effects, not to mention a decent, relevant cultural allegory.
