Also season 3 in 2008. I'm watching it now. Awesome series! It's just that some stuff seem kinda repetitive.

how come no one ever mentions casshern?


And, are we including manhwas? coz there's full house, and if we, I mean you are, then "Wolf's Temptation" is another one. The protagonist is Kang Dang Won.

Also, there's "I Love My Younger Sister", the protagonist is Jun Matsumoto.

I'm pretty sure with this. But if you think I'm wrong, tell me.

Yeah i was shocked to find that Oldboy was a manga-drama adaptation. It was really really twisted though :x

Just watched the 20th century boy movie, what a great adaptation :D i was shocked!

Oh, I was also surprised to find out attention please was a manga, and shibatora too .

Are they as good as the anime?

I love the live action of Nodame Cantabile! You can feel the music better because you can see them play the instrument not like the anime. It's only still pictures.

If i would choose between breathing and loving you, i would use my last breath to say i love you....~

IS ~Otoko Demo Onna Demo Nai Sei~ (2011). Although the manga is far better.

Also one can consider City Hunter (2011 Korea) like a live action, but the adaptation it's free (for say something).
