why is shin godzilla there?
It's Speed Racer, btw
Christopher Adams
There was a Hong Kong adaption of Wicked City that was kino. There was a scene were a guy fucked his living pinball machine gf.
Benjamin Ward
Speed Racer is pretty good, but it doesn't look like the original source, I'd say Netflix Death Note and GitS are the best adapatations that mildly respect the source material and don't suck so bad.
Bentley Moore
Sion Sono's "Himizu" is good.
Jun'ichi Mori's "Little Forest" is a masterpiece.
Nolan Carter
Does Battle Royal count? It was originally a manga.
Jose Phillips
Kenshin, the first one, by far. The second and third one is a terrible adaptation of a great arc so it loses some points.
Blake Rodriguez
GitS is the best of those movies(Shin Godzilla doesn't count), but that's not saying much.
Jackson Nguyen
No, Battle Royale was a novel, not a manga, neither visual novel.
Grayson Lopez
Old boy obviously
Brayden Garcia
no question about it
Samuel Peterson
Learn something new everyday.
Alexander Lewis
which one?
Ethan Wilson
The original. Spike Lee's remake is awful.
Sebastian Gonzalez
>why is shin godzilla there?
Because it's probably the closest and best thing to a live-action Evangelion the world will ever see.
Gabriel Cook
Rurouni Kenshin was very good.
>Gits
>DN
Let me guess: you only saw 2 anime live actions and those were those
Isaac Ortiz
Casshern is one of my all time favourite films.
Samuel Murphy
They are the most recent. and GitS is the closest of those film (besides SG) to being okay.
Robert Cook
But the manga and movie were almost irrelevant except the title and basic concept of being imprisoned for years.
More like reinvention than adaptation.
Aiden Evans
I watched all of them except Pong something, also I never read Attack on Titan manga, so I don't know how it compares.
Adrian Robinson
What anime/manga, that hasn't already been adapted, do you think would be hard to screw up if it were to be? Or an anime/manga that you wish to see adapted?
Aaron Butler
Blue Blazes, but it's a TV show.
Asher Myers
Himizu and the Korean version of Antique Bakery are my favorite live action movies
Detroit Metal City also wasn’t bad
Zachary Taylor
Usagi Drop desu
Owen Jenkins
You bring up a good point. They're all bad, but GITS is decent in comparison.
I'd say RK is the only one that is good.
Actually, I don't think I saw Speed Racer.
Elijah Wood
prove me wrong
Caleb Carter
One of my favorite manga just got a live-action movie but I haven’t heard anything if it was good or not. It’s called River’s Edge like the eighties movie with Keanu.
Jonathan Robinson
Speed Racer is good for getting high to. That's it.
Anthony Parker
>an anime/manga that you wish to see adapted?
Homunculus would make an awesome thriller series. I could see Soil getting remade if it ever gets any attention outside of Japan.
Luis Lopez
Nolan Gray
Old Boy > Cutie Honey > Blue Blazes > Shirayuki Hime > Lone Wolf and Cub > Speed Racer > Kenshin > Ghost in the Shell
These are the only ones I've seen.
I don't really see how Shin Godzilla is considered one. It has nothing to do with anime or manga.
Carter Brown
I've only seen GitS of those, but I thought it was pretty good. I liked it.
Ryan Clark
Ichi the killer
Dark water
Prison school live action (funny as hell)
Boku no el palacio j-drama
Brayden Long
ace attorney was fun, except for Redd White not being a pink/purple flamboyant man
Cooper Lopez
I NEEEEDDDD
Christopher Hughes
hajime no ippo

Henry Hernandez
FMA was pure raw sewage water.
Ryder Torres
Is it that bad? I was planning on checking it out tonight.
Brandon Davis
Death note was way better than everyone says it is. It's like people don't want to have fun while watching movies anymore.
Lincoln Moore
they already made 3 live action death note movies that are decent. the "fun" one already exists, way to make an abortion, call it birth, then demand everybody treat your abomination as a baby
Joseph Cruz
This one, right?
youtu.be
Benjamin Richardson
>Prison school live action (funny as hell)
Didn't know that was a thing
Hunter Barnes
Not as good as the anime, Meiko even wears a bra.
Samuel Peterson
Do people unironically think Speed Racer is a good movie?
Nicholas Hughes
Arin Hanson from Egoraptor and Game Grumps says that Speed Racer is his favorite movie of all time.
Leo Campbell
Edge of Tomorrow. Its not even close to be honest because thats arguably the only adaptation that actually turned out to be a good movie.
Christopher Stewart
I am the only person who watched this. This biking anime is comfy.
Samuel Morales
> Rurouni kenshin
> Speed Racer
> Rurouni Kenshin
Rurouni Kenshi is just a solid adaption
Speed Racer is an interesting adaption that is unique and experimental in style to capture the feels of animation onto live action.
Edge of Tomorrow is not a faithful adaption but turns out to be good movie using the concept of the manga/LN anyway. Even the manga was different from the original LN so I'm fine with that.
Haven't seen the other ones
Christopher Hill
Probably Tokyo Ghoul. I also really liked the live-action Death Note show.
Jackson Campbell
It's the one movie that would turn me to drug use, it looks like it would be good on a trip.
Jason Nguyen
I've watched all that in the pic and every thing on the left column is 3/10.
Pic related is the best recently.
Thomas Nelson
feels bad
Wyatt Cook
Who will play them in the inevitable live action movie?
Dylan Morgan
Monster in all honesty if it was done as an amc series.
Leo Foster
20th Century Boys is actually better than the manga.
Matthew Cooper
I think Kaiji would also make a great live action series on something like AMC as well.
Tyler Reyes
don't know him but just watched this here: youtube.com
That ice caves shot is so amazing.
Angel Johnson
This is based on a manga?
Kayden Bell
O
Samuel Robinson
nodame cantabile live action is better than the anime
Connor White
Yes. This one is also good.
Connor Davis
Wait is the Casshern movie based off the 70s anime or Sins?
Landon Watson
Kaiji got two Japanese live action movies. Were those any good?
Kayden Jenkins
A loose adaptation of the 70s series.
Daniel Young
That movie was pretty damn sad. Especially the home movie things they show at the end.
Evan Cook
Do you know what ADAPTION means?
Elijah Young
When the fuck did this happen?
Is this a JAV?
Oliver Morgan
Ricky Oh - The Story of Ricky.
A completely untopped film. Best anime adaptation hands down.
Dominic Jenkins
not counting oldboy.
I'd say deathnote (netflix)
Robert Hernandez

All the new shit is garbage.
Ethan Gomez
Laughably bad opinion.
Dominic Nelson
the last 2 minutes of the netflix shit mess was better than anything in the original live action adaptation. It was just failed mimicry.
Adrian Butler
If you're looking for a "Best of" clip show of scenes from Full Metal Alchemist in live action, it's a pretty alright action movie.
If you're looking for coherent plot and emotional impact, it's pretty bad.
Cooper Carter
The first and last few minutes are legitimately good. Probably more because of the soundtrack choices than anything. Otherwise, the Netflix version is terrible. What problems did you have with the Japanese version?
Jeremiah Mitchell
Trips don't lie
Angel Watson
Why the fuck do people not talk about the Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Live Action adaptation? It was actually fucking entertaining and was probably the best possible adaptation.
Also Yukako was a cutie
Jose Williams
I know this is bait, but fuck. That DN Netflix movie was white hot garbage.
Noah Roberts
>Posts anime/manga live-action movies
>Forgets the most successful one in the last decade
Most successful adaption coming through.
Jack Lee
When the movie is so good that most of the audience don't even realize this was a anime/manga adaption, then you KNOW you have done your job as the director well.
Oliver Thomas
surprisingly good
now that i think about it the first is probably what this thread is looking for
Parker Wilson
Train to busan
Cooper Mitchell

Hunter Lee
Gokusen
Owen Ortiz
Chihayafuru
Alexander Gonzalez
this movie was great. when is the 2nd one coming out?
Jace Sanders
MY
Jaxon Ward
Best anime manga movie by a long stretch.
The exo-armor action scenes were badass. I think the director really did a great job there, but I was surprised Tom Cruise how little air combat there was. It was mostly drop-ships, and ground troops. I wanted to see fighters dog fighting, and Tom learning to fly.
Jace Green
Angel Martin

Fucking plebs.
Kayden Turner
the acting was awful in this. way too over the top. it is like they copied the anime versions did not even try to act normal.
Camden Rogers
get on my level
Carson Myers
Battlestar Galactica (2004) did this concept way better.
Jack Moore
this x10
Ryan Foster
TO KNOOOOOW NOW
Gabriel Thompson
it's essentially barely an adaptation in the inverse.
Austin Allen
Excuse me where is blade of the immortal
Leo Perry
This is the only correct answer by a long shot
Jace Kelly
Ping Pong wasn't as good as the anime, but it was pretty damn good movie, although I definitely would recommend it if you don't like the animation of the series.
Ayden Morales
great movie but whats up with their power armor having no actual "armor" to protect them? It offers zero protection. a regular pistol could still kill them.
