The one visual looks really good, I only know the manga and not the LN but the visual makes it seem like it'll keep the same tone. I'm not sure I want it to keep all the rapey stuff but I figure the gore will most likely stick.
... Uh, Tomokazu Sugita as the big lizard guy. Okay (I didn't hear the drama CD either).
If I struggled to the end of my determination, to the end of my way of life with my followers, if the result is ruin, then this ruin is inevitable. Grieve. Shed tears. But you cannot regret.

it's by white fox (akame ga kill) so best possible studio, I think (thoguh they toned down the rape in akakill).

If it has the same level of censorship as akakill, that's already pretty passable.

The manga had a lot of rape, guys raping girls, even very young girls; girls raping guys, etc... The "prince"'s team was particularly good at that, but they got most of their arc cut from the anime.

i thought akamegakill is just one of those wanna be edgy anime but didn't really go full edgy.

It's nto supossed to be an edgy for the sake of being edgy, to me it feels more like a homage to old series (like jojo) where characters actually die and bad things happen. It's probaboyl because I have the context of takahiro also putting a lto of madoka homages in yuyuyu (he even homages stuff that was not put in the series but that the madoka creators said they wanted to do in interviews).

It had somehow not occurred to me how odd it would be to see Rukia minus huge slightly-pentagonal blue eyes in the live-action adaptation, that I needed to remind myself that yeah, this is supposed to be Rukia.  Because the guy doing Ichigo's fine, but now that I'm reminded of how Kubo does his art with much bigger female eyes, it's oddly distracting me.  Also, that generic stock roar sound effect for the hollow, meh.

Not that it particularly detracts from the movie or anything, it's just one of those weird to get used to transitions.  I dunno, for what it's worth I think it looks fine.  Sure, could look better, but I'm likely going to catch it.  The last two weeks, I've actually been feeling rather nostalgic for Bleach, checking out Tite Kubo's art galleries he did for the series.  Specifically the first bit before the Soul Society, when it was so much more grounded in the regular world and was about hunting monsters, before the series got stuck in a rut.

I'm just worried about how the typical anime overreaction tropes will fail to transfer over to the live-action version, which was a concern I had with the Fullmetal Alchemist movie which I've seen even the anime producer dittos.  Rukia's character is basically being completely straight-faced doing something terribly, then getting into comical fights when others logically disagree.


Basically I'm curious how they'll deal with scenes like this.

Pretty curious to see where they take the story after that. Griffith attacking Elfhelm seems the most likely

i can't believe that i'm saying this.... but A1 did much better job than shaft...

i can't believe how mediocre extra looks like.  where's the vibrant colours , where the trippy psychedelic effects i was hoping for? it looks so bland and boring.
the new rewritten story sucks 1000 years in the future? that means they aren't planning to do the whole extra trilogy. that means no elizabeth.

Has anyone here seen Marmalade Boy? I think it's one of the best anime Toei has ever made.
