I've been wanting to make this thread for a few days but I'm just now getting to it :wimwim:

I don't read manga that often because I'm not that big of a reader, but I still enjoy it from time to time. Anyways, is there any manga series that you'd like to see animated?

Here's mine -

Dengeki Daisy


Synopsis (that I totally did not steal from myanimelist or anything :welp:)

Before he died, Teru Kurebayashi's brother gave her only a cell phone, telling her to contact "Daisy" if she ever needs someone to talk to. Now, even though she lives alone and without relatives, Teru never feels lonely because Daisy is her constant confidant and supporter.

In order to pay off a debt, Teru finds herself needing to work for the rude, inconsiderate, and abusive (not to mention quite handsome) school janitor, Tasuku Kurosaki. While her predicament seems on the opposite spectrum of her relationship with Daisy, maybe Teru's two different worlds are more closely connected than she thought?

I've read and even bought the whole series four years ago (which cost me a shitton of money :nayeonisdone:) and I really loved it. It was so cute and was hilarious and I'd love to see an anime adaptation of it. I doubt it'll happen though :yolk:


Takane to Hana



Synopsis (that I totally did not steal from the internet again :welp:)

Hana Nonomura takes the place for her older sister in an arranged marriage meeting with Takane Saibara, the heir to the Takaba conglomerate where her father works. Despite his wealth and handsome exterior, Takane is actually rude and arrogant, which leads Hana to immediately end the meeting by throwing her disguise in his face. However, Takane is amused by Hana's disillusionment with him, and continues to pursue her even after learning that she is in fact not her adult sister. Takane tries to woo Hana by constantly taking her to fancy restaurants, elaborate trips, and buying opulent gifts as he pompously works to get her to cave into him and his lifestyle. Takane and Hana come to enjoy their "arrangement" and through a constant battle of bickering with each other, come to learn about and care for one another.

I haven't read this in quite a while because it takes forever to update, but I still enjoyed it when I started reading it. The ten year age gap might be off putting to some, but honestly it didn't bother me too much. There isn't any weird lolicon in it or anything. It's just two stubborn ass tsunderes that refuse to admit they have any feelings for each other :nayeonisdone:. And the male lead doesn't make any creepy or weird advances towards the young girl which is good. Overall though the story is quite cute and has a lot of funny moments as well. I'd love to see an anime adaptation of it, but sadly there isn't one :pepecry2:. It does however have a drama cd and a live-action drama that's kind of cringy :wimwim:


Bastard



Synopsis (:welp:)

There is nowhere that Seon Jin can find solace. At school, he is ruthlessly bullied due to his unsettlingly quiet nature and weak appearance. However, this is not the source of Jin's insurmountable terror: the thing that he fears more than anything else is his own father.

To most, Jin's father is a successful businessman, good samaritan, and doting parent. But that is merely a facade; in truth, he is a deranged serial killer—and Jin is his unwilling accomplice. For years, they have been carrying out this ruse with the police being none the wiser. However, when his father takes an interest in the pretty transfer student Yoon Kyun, Jin must make a decision—be the coward who sends her to the gallows like all the rest, or be the bastard of a son who defies his wicked parent.

I read this late last year and loved it. It's obviously very different from the first two series I posted. Bastard is actually a manhwa and contains a lot of blood, murder, suspense. and even some romance :wimwim:. If you're into stories that are bloody and suspenseful then I highly recommend this series. You can read it on the Webtoon's app.

I love Bastard! now that ToG, God of Highschool and Noblesse would have an animation I have hopes that Bastard will have one as well. Other series I'd like to see are Sun Ken Rock and a new adaptation of Claymore, the first one sucked.

A @lexus thread :nakypog:
I agree about Bastard, could be a really sick anime if done well. Very mature :sanapray:
Wouldn't be surprised if it becomes like a Kdrama instead though lol.

Sun Ken Rock would be AMAZING :sj_weary:
The ending kinda sucks but as a whole it's such a fun ride lol.

Uh from what I read recently...

Saikyou Densetsu Kurosawa, Liar Game and Pansy are nice.

Realistically, I think we might get adaptations of these some day:

Toumei Ningen Kyoutei
Jitsu wa Ore, Saikyou deshita? (this one would be popular, it has a catchy premise)
Spirit Circle

I'd watch a Kodomo no Omocha remake too.

Oh, also Karakuri Dôji Ultimo.
They announced but never made it, Stan Lee would be happy...

Anyway for years, my answer to this would always be Vinland Saga, but it finally got an adaptation and it was fucking great so :sj_weary:

I'd say Vagabond. BUT Idk if the mangaka ever intends to finish it since it's on hiatus. There's still a LOT of material to adapt though, and being on hiatus didn't stop Hunter x Hunter from being made into anime twice, so I'd still like to see it. But the animation needs to be 10/10 coz anything less won't do justice to the gorgeous art- best art in any manga ever.

They could get ideas from the novel and the author did give some hints of a possible ending he wants, in an interview.

I think it'd be doable as animated movies, give it to Katsuhiro Otomo to direct, idk.

Ah it removed my text while looking for links.

Mostly id want anime either to finish so new season or remake if the anime doesnt make manga justice.

There is couple though;
Dogs: Bullets & Carnage - has only 1 OVA, pretty much tiny teaser.
Watashitachi no Shiawase na Jikan this would be great movie, but theyd need to be rly careful of subject matter

I've heard of Vinland Saga but I haven't watched it yet :jisoosmh:

I have heard lot of mixed stuff of it. Some have said that it's actually quite good thriller and portrayal of toxic relationship- well extreme case of one- but lot of like it as fcked up love story too..
