This out of left field announcement totally sucker punched Fate/stay night and Stardust Crusaders to become my most anticipated anime. |

| I'm not sure how to feel about this to be honest. LOGH is one of the greatest anime ever made and I have the feeling that there is so much they can do wrong with the adaption and little they can improve upon. I'll obviously devour it when it comes out, but aghh...I'm just scared they won't do justice to the material... I hope it ends up being a positive experience like Yamato 2199. Kampai Democracy! |

| I have mixed feelings about this considering the original is pretty much tied with Gundam as my all time favorite anime franchise. They'd really have to get the tone and gravity of the dialogue and characters right as well as really understand their motivations and what makes them who they are as well as set aside at least 100 episodes to match up to the classic. Also I just can't picture anyone other than the original cast in the roles of the respective characters now. Of course if it does turn out inferior I'll always have the original OVA series and it'll expose more people to the saga so that should prove interesting if it's even half as well directed, written and acted as it was. I just ask please no gimmick studios like Shaft involved in this for the love of god as unlikely as it would be for them to get picked for something like this anyway. Someone that has a strong track record with adapting sci-fi works like Sunrise, I.G, Madhouse or hell even Artland who seems to be active again with Mushishi (is this announcement related to their sudden revival) if they can be given the proper budget to work with it. |
