| First thing I see is Kento Yamazaki!!! Omg! Congrats ♥ Also, really happy for both Umimachi and Bakuman. Need to check out both as I loved their Anime/Manga. |
| Takagi's actor look exactly like him, except for the hair color. Someone should add the manga to the database? |

| Sounds legit. I might even give that Bakuman live action film a chance in the future. |
 |
| Proud of you Bakuman. Well done. Bakuman appeal not just to otaku but also to the general mass although in the form of live action instead of anime. |
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion. http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30 It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist. |
| Bakuman looks really good. One of my first animus. Love it |
| The Bakuman film was very normal imo. But the awards it received are well-deserved since it was good in those specific areas. sakanaction did a great job with the soundtrack. |

| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
kuuderes_shadow said: tsudecimo said: It never appealed to Otaku... It's a shounen Jump manga about making manga in Shounen Jump. Appealing to Otaku and appealing to the general public aren't mutually exclusive you know? Sure but he phrased like it's main audience was otaku then it ended up appealing to general public as well. Most shounen manga have general public (mainstream) as the audience, Otaku are in the minority there. To love ru and ecchi ones aside that is. Bakuman anime in particular didn't have a noticeable otaku following (only 2k BD+DVD sales from what I can find), and stayed in the air due TV ratings. Hence my surprise for him to even bring the word Otaku, it's not relevant. |
|
| Mm I read it as him saying "it appeals to Otaku and to the general masses as well". |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| Sorry for a semantic argument but ''not just to'' implies that the former is the main audience, and the latter is included. e.g Star Wars appeal not just to nerds but to public movie goers as well. |
|
| How about some love for UMIMACHI DIARY!!!!!!!!!....which for some reason was renamed Our Little Sister for Western audiences. what a fucking film. A gorgeous slice of life with a healthy dose of sweetness and realness. |
| Yay for Bakuman ^^ I should check out the live action, loved the anime and manga. |
 |
| Yeah Bakuman. Now I wanna see this movie. Loved the anime. |

kuuderes_shadow said: Mm I read it as him saying "it appeals to Otaku and to the general masses as well". Yup, you got it right. What appeal to anime fan are not necessarily appeal for general mass(non anime fan). For example, OPM appeal to anime fan/otaku but it does not appeal to general mass(non anime fan). Maybe I should use the words 'anime fan' rather than otaku. |

Otaku or 'anime fans' that like OPM weren't it's target audience. |

You mean Bakuman only entertain mainstream audience, the general mass(non anime fan) but not anime fan itself even though it's original adaption is from manga? I feel Bakuman manga sold decent though. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2011-11-30/top-selling-manga-in-japan-by-series/2011 http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2012-12-02/30-top-selling-manga-in-japan-by-series/2012 |
