I thought this might need its own thread, so here goes~ http://myanimelist.net/news/47204328 How do we all feel about this? With already done anime adaptions from previous years that weren't too amazing (looking at Dragon Ball Z, Death Note, and Avatar, not so respectively), how can we ever be confident anymore? This goes without saying to both Japanese and Western adaptions. With the recent news on Death Note's dreaded American adaption (which you'll find plenty of updates on), and no forgetting about the very much spoken of and anticipated Ghost in the Shell with Scarlett Johansson, is anyone genuinely excited about these (SAO, especially!)? Or are we all always walking on egg shells when it comes to live adaptions? Don't get me wrong, I have liked plenty of them, and they've had their own success (mainly the Japanese ones, amirite? >.>)~ I think of 20th Century Boys and Rurouni Kenshin. But I'm pretty intrigued how it'll be a series. I'm NOT intrigued that it's SAO. I really cannot be any less interested in the show after trying it out a bit and being so underwhelmed. If anything, all these adaptions make me sad how the focus, effort, energy and love can be put into something better, like more deserving mangas getting the anime treatment, and even some much needed sequels of a couple of anime seasons (like Highschool of the Dead... I mean Toaru Majutsu no Index)! Also do note, this thread can be used to talk about any and all adaptions of this entertainment (anime/manga). I used SAO as the main starter subject because of its very recent relevance to open it up. Stage play Yowamushi and musical Kuroshitsuji any time though. /o/
