So has a release date been confirmed yet? Or is this still years in production?

Didn't watch the Anime, but seems like Johan is mostly emotionlessly smiling and very calm, not very hard to act.


But that emotionless act of Johan's is hard. I mean, it's in the eyes, the smile, the voice and the way he carries himself. I know you didn't watch the anime, and that is why I was sugesting you check the ep 29. It's the one where Johan makes the detective Richard Braun commit suicide. A good ep to watch Johan at work, with sound to make it even better (another reason why I sugested the eng dub, cause by the end I can't take my eyes away from it).

My opinion at least.


Exactly, Johan is going to be nowhere near "easy" to act. That scene gives me chills and shows just what an amazing character Johan really is, the show will truly be riding on them finding a good actor for him.

In my opinion, Leonard Dicapricio in Titanic would've been PERFECT for his role, or...

Pfff.

I really WISH it would be a Breaking Bad tier series, but I know it probably won't. Though filming the gun guy and the girl and a bunch of other characters would be MUCH easier comparatively to other series.

Another great thing about this is that if it does go ahead, and is popular, which i am very sure it will be, we will most likely see the monster manga be printed again.

And maybe Viz will finish the DVD release.


That would be awesome indeed.
I probably regret this post by now.

One of the few anime that would make a decent Western live action. Would be nice if this went through.
