What Anime Would You Like To See As A J-drama?

Ghost in the Shell

It would need to have American production values though, otherwise it might ending up looking like the Japanese version of Doctor Who.

lol, now hey! you aren't baggin on Doctor Who are you??? lol...i know what you mean tho...unfortunately...i have yet to see any really amazing looking japanese scifi shows...their scifi movies are always lots of fun happiness to watch...but the tv shows...not so much...still good stories tho.

if i am wrong in this and anyone has any recommendations...i'm more than happy to be proved wrong ^_^

if done correctly i bet it'll be as hilarious as GTO...

It'll be more hilarious then GTO.....but all that perverted stuff have to be allowed in the drama. I think if they do decide to do this, the guy who will play Kintaro Oe is very important. I don't know who to chose :sweat:

I think Golden Boy would totally rock!!
Great choice. :thumbsup:
And actually I think that Sorimachi would be good in that role too. (if he was a little younger!) ;)

O ya it would :hehe:
Sorimachi in his younger days.....say maybe if he was 25 yrs old :mrgreen:
But all those girls had really big boobs....so maybe along with Sorimachi they goin to have to put in Bikini models or whatever, but to see Sorimachi be more of a pervert than when he was in GTO, I think it'll be very fun to watch :victory:

I would like to see Love HIna become a live action drama and Fruits Basket<---this would be great, just put an All-Star cast together :woot:

well, hope to see initial D be turned into j drama. instead of using chinese artists to act as those characters. it's better to use jap artist.

Well....one, don't use the word "Jap" please use "Japanese" or use J infront of like in your case aritist --->J-artist

And yes it would be nice to use J-artist in the J-drama, it seems more fitting.

It would be terribly hard to do that well, dont you think?

Fruits Basket immediately came to mind for me too, :D

but I would hate if the transforming and animal bodies weren't just right. :grumble:

And which young actress for Tohru?

hmmmmm.........

Yea.....the more I think now, some parts to the anime makes it hard to do :sweat:

The transformation part seems like it would be the hardest to do....need to have those poof and smoke and then sub the actors/actresses with the animal....hard...

Ummm.......who would play Tohru.....I would like to say Ueto Aya....but maybe she might be better playing a different female character in the anime....like Kagura :hehe:

The one and only anime that should be turned into a drama would be: DBZ!! :hehe: j/k

But I would vote for Samurai Champloo or Azumanga Daioh :woot:

I thought you were kind of serious about this.... :shocked:

It definately won't work out well....at least i think this. All the flying and fighting in mid-air....it will look very fake and all the fast blurry punches, it will have Matrix feel right here. Then turning "Super Saiyen" if i spelled it right.....the actors will look really funny with blond hair and how will they make them look super buff??? Will be too hard to do :sweat:

If DBZ were to be made live action, they would have to do it high budgetted meaning add all those special effects and CG. This most likely won't work out as a jdrama since we all know jdramas aren't nearly as highly funded as movies. Possibly a live action movie would suit DBZ better...

Golden Boy, FMA, Neon Genesis Evangelion (but not an american film!), Dragon Ball.

Yeah! I cried when goku died! :hehe:LOL! I want HunterXHunter

Ohh I think they should start Fruit's Basket or Love Hina but the problem is how can they have a flying turtle or people turning into animals??

Special Effects i guess

oohh i guess that's the only option but how about Ranma 1/2?
a guy who turns into a girl when falling on water
but the only thing that's really wrong about fruits basket is there zodiac and there age.When i wished the author of fruits baket,Natsumi or Natsuki
Takaya would of put all the characters in the right age.But i guess it's too late for that.
this is my guess if they do make fruits basket a live action drama based on the actors

Tohru Honda=Nakama Yukie
Shigure Sohma=Sorimachi Takashi=the dog
Yuki Sohma=Yamashita Tomohisa=the rat
Kyo Sohma=Tsukamoto Takashi=the cat
Kagura Sohma=Yui Ichikawa=the boar (even though she's the tiger in the zodiac)
Momiji Sohma=the rabbit
Ritsu Sohma=the monkey
Ayame Sohma=the snake
Hatori Sohma=Kaneshiro Takeshi=the dragon
Hatsuharu Sohma=Yamazaki Yuta=the cow
Hiro Sohma=Kamiki Ryunosuke=the ram
Kisa Sohma=Miyama Karen=the tiger
Hanajima=
Arisa or Uo-chan=

the other 2 members that were never shown in the anime were Kureno Sohma and Isuzu Sohma which is the the Rooster and the Horse


:crazy: hmmm seems like i already ran out of ideas so just quote this and post the actors or actresses u want besides those names it's alright if u change it

Have the female lead switch with the male lead.......

In this case, <Hikaru No Go> is a must then!!! It'll be real cool if it's acted into a drama... Haha.. What about <Full Metal Alchemist>?? But the power and stuffs are to use special effects to make it better then... Any more cool anime??? I'm wondering about <The Prince Of Tennis> even though I'd never watched before...

What about <Crayon Shinchan>!??! He's kinda cute! But they must find one that exactly can represents him, Haha :hehe:

Hikaru No Go would be nice as long as the make the Go matches intense and fun to watch :mrgreen: Prince of Tennis...I think they would make the matches look somewhat like that of Ace Wo Nerae....i mean "Drive B" how do you slide like that in tennis...fun to watch in the anime but weird if done live...and Momo-Chan Senpai's "Dunk Smash" he jumping like 10 ft to smash...so the drama would have to do this kinda stuff to somewhat keep it close to the anime :sweat:
Just saying it'll be hard to do, but if done in the right way, it'll be fun to watch
