According to the cover strip that comes with the latest 11th volume, the manga "Sukitte Ii na yo." will have a live action movie adaptation. The movie is due to theater release in 2014. The manga started serialization in 2008 in the magazine Dessert and was adapted into a TV anime series in 2012.

So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

A season two would have made me happier, but good for them I guess.
I probably regret this post by now.

Won't work for me as a live action movie. Season 2 would be nice though.

That's great news! I think it will work fine as a live action movie, however, I think a TV series would work even better. If I'm honest though, I want a another season of the anime not a live action I probably won't ever have the chance to watch. I really enjoyed the first season of the anime but I don't think the ending was all that great.

Looking back now- and comparing it to other shows I've seen since then- the anime wasn't half-bad. I'm happy for the author.

Live action movie can reach wider audience who may buy the manga later?

So, is this set in stone then? That shoujo manga will only get live-action from now on?

No, no thanks. I know a season 2 is impossible with those dreadful sales but I can't see how this will work as live-action. They'll have to tone it down to the max.

Still hoping that someone out there will take a chance with adapting a shoujo manga into an anime and that it succeeds...sigh.

And I was thinking it could not get worse... If Kimi ni Todoke in live-action was weak, Sukitte will be painful.

Didnt the anime sell like crap? Isn't that a good enough reason for it to not get a second season?

If you really want to fit in, just put Legend of the Galactic Heroes in your top 5 and have it be the only 10-rated anime in your list.

Hmm...never seen a live action adaption before. I'm a huge fan of the anime and the manga. It doesn't seem like there's enough chapters (from what I can tell) for a second season yet. I definitely want that too though! Looking forward to it!!

Not quite enough for 2nd season, needs another 10 chapters for the same number that they did in the first season so fall 2014 would work... assuming that something other than disc sales was the reason for it. The manga may not even last that long however. It is in a place where it could end really soon or it could go on for some time depending on what Kanae and Dessert want to happen.

Even if i wanted to watch this, i would still need for it to come out then wait another months for it to get subbed, just for me to basically watch the whole story from the anime. Seems not very worth it. :/

As everyone here, my opinion is the same, they should just focus on doing a second season.

This goes for everyone talking about how they'd "rather a season 2" and how "they should focus on another season instead". The budget isn't from the same pool, so this doesn't add or detract from a season 2.

Actually, this adds to the likelihood of a season 2 because it will raise awareness of the manga and anime series and thus sales of both of those along with it.

People keep saying "They should focus on a season 2" but who is this "they" you're referring to? The mangaka isn't the screenwriter for the anime or live action. They aren't involved whatsoever. The anime production staff isn't involved in the live action series in any way whatsoever either.

Who exactly are you people thinking is focusing on things or not? This is not a centralized product. There's the mangaka, there's the publisher of the manga, there's the bigger company that owns the publisher, there's the studio and staff working on the anime, there's the bigger owner of the studio making the anime, there's the studio and staff working on the live action, and the bigger owner of the studio working on the live action, and then there's the tv stations, stores/products that are involved, and so on and so forth.

A story is not one singular product worked on by one singular group with one singular base of money. This is factually not a situation you can say you would prefer a second season of the anime over this - because it's entirely unrelated.

You're discussing two entirely different products being paid for with entirely different funds by entirely different people and being worked on and 'focused' on by nobody who has anything to do with the anime adaptation in any way whatsoever. The only connection is the story is the same. There is nobody who COULD be focused on the anime adaptation instead that is focusing on this version because it's not like they take the anime staff and throw them into the live action's production.
