Oh, i didnt see it

This. A lot of religions should get anime adaptations, actually. Hinduism IIRC would make an insane battle shounen. Their gods have stupid powerlevels.
Too bad so many religions are treated so carefully and it's so hard to adapt them into stories in case people get offended by it.

I got into the wheel of time because of /lit/ and I heard the author had died so Brandon Sanderson took over for the last book(s)?? so I also bought the book in OP's pic. How good is it? Should I take a break from wheel of time and start reading it?
Anthony Gutierrez
I literally just finished this book. Holy shit yes
Sadly Japan would fuck this up so bad. About to start book 2.
Brody Moore
We need more rape isekai.
Jacob Stewart
Stormlight archives is amazing, you should definetly read it. It has 4.64 on goodreads.
If you like fantasy at all its a must read
Daniel Nguyen
We need mistborn animE.
Thomas Torres
Wait I thought /lit/ hated books like WoT, something something the shounenshit of books.
Parker Bell
hinduism already has mangas though so I don't think indians would care if you adapted it to anime.
Sebastian Reed
Oh God I have to wait until 2020 for the next Stormlight book. Even the next Mistborn book was pushed to next year.
Xavier Reyes
Adam Bailey
Who would play Mat, the greatest character there ever was?
Cooper Hernandez
Malazan Books of the Fallen
Christopher Reyes
the main criticism I saw was that the books carried on needlessly/no need for the 12 books
Parker Watson
They do. Its being recommended every now and then ironical. More or less.
Aaron Moore
Worm by wildbow would be really fun. Shounen battle series with a female lead. The battles would be pretty amazing animated
Joshua Martin
Realistically, how many episodes would this be?
Hunter Ward
>No 1984 anime
But why
Carter Clark
Culture of Critique

>An introverted teenage girl with an unconventional superpower, Taylor goes out in costume to find escape from a deeply unhappy and frustrated civilian life. Her first attempt at taking down a supervillain sees her mistaken for one, thrusting her into the midst of the local ‘cape’ scene’s politics, unwritten rules, and ambiguous morals. As she risks life and limb, Taylor faces the dilemma of having to do the wrong things for the right reasons.
That sounds fucking awful, I love female leads in western books, but what's with the capeshit bait?
Setting is modern times, right?
Daniel Cruz
This would rake in the fujobucks.
Brayden Adams
Well, there's /lit/ and then there's /sffg/
Eli Morgan
Ender's game + the whole saga
Chase Turner
Its modern time. The novel is generally very highly rated.
Bentley Ramirez
>The priest's story
Man, that would be amazing
Lucas Watson
>The novel is generally very highly rated
And who cares about that?
Julian Price
Boris Vallejo should make anime fantasy art
Landon Nguyen
People who dont judge a book just by its synopsis
Isaac Cruz
Mortal Engines
Mason Allen
Unironically this. It could easily be worked into either a moeshit pedobait SOL, or a serious dramatic mystery that will leave Sup Forums on suicide watch. either way, i'd watch it
Asher Thompson
Lets be honest, an animated something is the only thing that will do Stormlight justice. A live action version will need a CGI budget bigger that Avatar's considering how fucking EVERYTHING in that world is so alien to Earth.
But fuck yes, anime version. I always imagined Syl as being voiced by a smug seiyuu like Hana Kana in my head when reading the books anyway
Dominic Ramirez
I agree, shame that its so unlikely to get one. I doubt many people in japan read sandersons books.
But theres a moderate change of it getting big budget movie adaptation, which might be good
Isaac Torres
Crime and Punishment
Joshua Ramirez
>vanilla doujins of Hester and Tom
How do I start funding this?
Evan Gray
Sanderson books are basically anime anyway
Nolan Rivera
>6-foot-long-sword fight while falling sideways through a super-hurricane
Pretty much
Aiden King
Islam would be suited for a war-focused adventure drama involving a major conflict between Sunnis and Shias. Start as comfy and peaceful and then became dark and serious.
Christianism would work as high fantasy story with some dark themes in between.
Buddhism as fantasy-centric SoL.
Chinese religions would be a magical wuxia battle shounen.
Finally Judaism is a psychological thriller epic.
Alexander Rogers
Harry Potter
Parker King
Three Hearts and Three Lions
John Carter
The West just does isekai better
Mason Reed
>Christianity
Berserk already exists, user
Jaxon Reed
Yeah, by autistic ponyfags on spacebattles
Christian Harris
The Divine Comedy
Inferno by Studio Khara
Purgatorio by ufotable
Paradiso by KyoAni
Thomas Wood
Hey now, not all of the autists on SB/SV praising it are ponyfags.
Ryder Fisher
Then what if its animated by the same studio?
Leo Harris
You're right. They're probably trannies.
Luke Martinez
Religion is isekai before isekai.
Kevin Lopez
Moscow-Petushki Moscow to the End of the Line by foreign publishers. Adapt as two 30 or 40 minutes OVAs.
Levi Carter
you keep using that word
Nicholas Wilson
i love shounen tho??
Xavier Jenkins
All quiet on the western front.
Adrian Taylor
Andrew Bell
My fucking nigga
Get on this shit, nips
Bentley Watson
I honestly think Japan could do a decent job of it. The series in anime enough, but more importantly, for all I like about Sanderson his dialogue is absolute shit and anybody who could take his story and make cuts for the screen do that Shallan isn't throwing her two paragraph wit around everywhere is needed
Ian Sanders
Ewww.... Mormon sci-fi. Ewwww...
Alexander White
This would be absofuckinglutely amazing if animated properly.
Jack Diaz
Sebastian Martinez
Ringworld.
Lincoln Jones
Joseph Taylor
The greatest ecchi harem ever told
Joshua Long
Halo: Fall of Reach
Christian Johnson
The early honor Harrington books. Before it devolved into a quest to develop missiles as main characters.
Parker Martinez
I'd be genuinely interested in seeing this as an anime.
Brayden Morris
His Dark Materials trilogy, bonus because it could never be adapted in 3d
Jeremiah Lopez
No one in this world is mad enough for this.
Alexander Thomas
Fuck yeah.
Luis Phillips
Mistborn is much more likely, but she'd end up being black or something to get big studios to pick it up
Jeremiah Richardson
Austin Lopez
user that sucked
And it only goes full shonenshit in the last few chapters
Lincoln Clark
A better Isekai than anything the nips have come up with.
Brody Young
This.Warhammer actually has a lot of things that would look grat in anime format,imagine fucking Eisenhorn series adapted in 3 seasons...
Oliver Morgan
WoR>WoK>>>>>>>Oathbringer
Brody Russell
Would be a great souls game
Levi Brooks
The Forever War.
Very episodic and it even has time travel (realistic, so only forward through relativity and speed).
Ethan Hill
Wyatt Ramirez
The Alex Rider books would make a great deconstruction shonen series.
Samuel Richardson
John Bennett
Oathbringer was alright, but the twist that humans were the voidbringers all along I saw coming a mile away.
Adolin's blade slowly coming back to life is hype as fuck though.
Isaac Richardson
honestly this would be pretty fun. Napoleonic wars but with dragons.
Jonathan Reyes
This.
Jordan Price
Didius Falco books. Smug Roman republican detective working for an Emperor. Main love interest is a haughty gluttonous tsundere, best friend is a buff man maried to a loli wife and father to three lolis. I basically read them imagining it's an anime. Sex, Not!NTR, and suspense in post Nero Italy.
Juan Gray
Fuck that, just give a Gaunt's Ghost adaptation, just imagine the fujobux
Logan White
I feel like the plot wouldnt work in modern times since everyone carries a smartphone. The Yeerks would have their cover blown in a matter of weeks if not days.
Dominic Williams
>Liking Temeraire
>Literally made every conflict he was in worst with his fucking soapboxing
>Gives birth to traitorous offspring
>Screws his captain constantly
>Causes Dragon Riots
Chase Ross
I agree. Oathbringer has a few great scenes but holy fuck, all the traveling and doubling down on development Shallan already had.
Evi best girl though.
Austin Turner
Yeah, Oathbringer was pretty terrible in comparison.
Honestly I mostly read the series for Syl and Kaladin scenes, since their interactions are great. Wasn't enough of that in Oathbringer.
James Wilson
The count of monte cristo
wait...
Isaiah Gonzalez
I read the first two books. Does it get that bad?
Julian Campbell
>I feel like the plot wouldnt work in modern times since everyone carries a smartphone.
Star Trek doesn't work either as smartphones btfo the communicator Kirk had in the original series. user stop being autistic and have the show set in the 19XX period the damn books were written in.
Wyatt Gutierrez
Just go with the old "Everyone will just think it's photoshop" excuse. It's not a perfect solution but it could work.
Plus the animorphs don't want to blow the Yeerk's cover because that leads to the Yeerks just burning everything from orbit.
Alexander Anderson
No need to set it in modern day, just set it when it was written.
Isaac Taylor
Lincoln Parker
I just want to see it adapted in some way even though it's likely impossible.
Nolan Wood
This could work only in terms of violence thing, which definitely would be lowered in western version.
French manga Radiant is close to this concept, it got anime adaptation for this fall. The Edge is more splendid work, though.
