| God has left, this time for good. |

| Funny series, hope the movie turns out well. |
 |
| This show had an interesting premise, but the anime was badly done, so I dropped it. A live action could be good though, absurd live action can work, like Prison School. |
| “I just spent the last two years thinking that you guys knew more than me about life and I just found out that you guys are just as dumb as me.” “Duh-doy.” “Yeah, duh-doy.” |
| This would never fly in America lol at least not in the current political climate. Show wasn't good anyway. |
| it was a perfect film for miike or sono, idk about this director |
anemonespotte said: it was a perfect film for miike or sono, idk about this director Damn, Sono could have made this series into a sick film, the absurdity of it would be perfect for him. Similar to how he made Tokyo Tribe into an insane film. |

| Fuck yeah. Not sure how it'll do in a more actor dialogue way but the trailer looks promising. People were way to negative on this because animation was lacking, fuckin weak. |
 |
| I wonder how much monologue there is going to be. Anyway, I just want to hear a lot of manly idols screaming! And they need to nail the sex change comedy if this wants to have any chance at being successful. |

And they need to nail the sex change comedy if this wants to have any chance at being successful. You mean if they cast actual transgenders ? My God that would be something. |
|
| Surprisingly, I think this kind of story can work as live-action. Not that I'm going to watch it myself anyway... |
| Why would anyone with a brain make a live action adapdation from this abomination??no surprise Japanese cinema is so bad. |
