Like the totle says, ate there any manga you really want to see an anime adaptation of, and which studios do you think would be best for the job?

Some that i'd like to see:

Gachiakuta - i think Trigger would fit perfect for it's artstyle, backup Bones or Ufotable could also do a good job

Real Account - Wit, just don't lose it to MAPPA, alternatively Clover Works as long as they don't go the Promised Neverland rout, or Wit x Clover Works tag team, they are doing a great job with Spy x Family

Nyankees - Doga Kobo, i only picked it cuz it's made another anime with cats
What debating with DigiCat is like according to APolygons2
That's why I thought a discussion would be pointless. It doesn't feel like a debate. It feels like I'm playing chess and somehow lose to an uno reverse card after loosing all my monopoly money lol

I will list manga I like.

https://myanimelist.net/manga/93892/Toaru_Idol_no_Accelerator-sama JC Staff, obviously.
https://myanimelist.net/manga/14304/Vampire Tezuka Productions, obviously.
https://myanimelist.net/manga/6774/Digimon_Adventure__V-Tamer_01 Toei, obviously.
https://myanimelist.net/manga/21676/Ryushika_Ryushika idk which studio.
https://myanimelist.net/manga/65021/Pandemonium__Majutsushi_no_Mura idk which studio.

Special mention goes to what I DON'T want to see. I don't want to see Madhouse reboot X, because the studio has already failed twice to adapt that manga.

Pocket Monsters Special, OLM. Toei is fine too as long as they don't make it a long running anime.
Liar Game, Madhouse.
Battle Royale, Production I.G.
Fire Punch, not MAPPA please, even though I appreciate the different direction they took with CSM. I'd pick David Production.
Gamble Fish, the kind of anime that J.C. Staff can make it work somehow.

I desperately want to see Kieta Hatsukoi adapted to anime, and I still have a sliver of hope that it'll get picked up sometime in the near future. As for the studio...I'm not very insightful nor do I really pay much mind to which studios do what; however, seeing as Madhouse previously handled something by the same mangaka--and it was great, from what I've heard--I assume they'd do a good job with Kieta Hatsukoi as well.

Bonus: Ganbare, Nakamura-kun!! totally needs an anime too, even a series of shorts would work for its style. And maybe David Productions as the studio? I'm just throwing this out there based solely on the fact that they were behind the recent Urusei Yatsura reboot and managed to make it look like a really nice, colourful mix of '80's and modern-day visuals, and Ganbare, Nakamura-kun has an artstyle reminiscent of '80's manga :)

Basically all my favorite manga that haven't (or have only a limited short OVA series like YKK) and probably never will get an anime.
I don't care what studio as long as they can produce fluid 2D animation.

Many, but I'll include LNs/WNs as well. ^^
Not gonna include Studios though, I don't know of any studio that hasn't produced some duds.



I've added a few that already got anime but seem to have stopped getting further seasons. I haven't mentioned manga like Golden Kamuy and Mairimashita Iruma-kun or LightNovels like Konosuba because it seems like they're still getting content, potentially even full adaptations.

Kuroneko to Majo no Kyoushitsu by CloverWorks. This anime has magic and action, and is the reason why I want it to be an anime, I think the experience would be heighten if the anime is done well. The vibe is still fun, with a school setting. CloverWorks usually have a pretty bright colors so they'd fit the setting and animates well overall, I'd trust them animating the action and magic scenes.

Deep Sea Aquarium MagMell by P.A. Works. This series have nice sceneries, and P.A. works always give us beautiful backgrounds.

Butai no Sake by Doga Kobo. They're pretty good with school anime, and have adapted another manga by the same author before and did quite well (Sasaki to Miyano), so I would trust them to do this as well.

Natsumi Ando's works. Mainly Arisa. Not sure what I want for the studio though. Shoujo with a darker vibe and a school setting.. maybe Madhouse.

Oh, man, I've always dreamed of seeing Natsumi Ando's manga animated! :') Arisa would make for an awesome anime, for sure. But it's been my childhood wish to see an anime for Zodiac P.I...I really wish her manga got more recognition, I love her art and wacky sense of humour.

I really would like to see how Ojisama to Neko would look like and though I havent caught up with recent chapters (dont know if they have even been translated yet), the mangaka is approaching a more musical note with the manga so I think it be lovely to hear those chapters. After all a manga does not have sound so it feels like youre missing out a little on that but as long as the manga continues thats all that really matters to me

Had "ACT-AGE" not been cancelled due to the actions of it's deplorable writer, i always believed that Kyoto Animation would've done an amazing job giving it an anime adaptation. Also i'd like to see "Holyland" being adapted by Madhouse too if it were possible.

it is my pipe dream to see Qualia the Purple adapted by shaft. my favorite manga adapted by my favorite studio, and shinbou's style would be PERFECT for this kind of story. short and sweet, so pacing shouldn't be an issue. it could potentially be my favorite anime ever, and bring attention to a disgustingly underrated manga.

A couple weeks ago, i finished reading Iryuu: Team Medical Dragon, and i loved the hell out of it. It's my #1 fav manga rn, replacing 20th CB. I would love to see it animated, any studio is fine as long as they do it justice. A 20th CB anime adaptation and City Hunter remake would be great too.

Might be a double edged sword because how easy it can be messed up if the studio is not good enough but I really want to experience punpun from my TV screen. Though honestly, a high budget live action adaptation might work better than anime adaptation

- Onanie Master Kurosawa
Coz of the stupid title it probably wont ever get an anime adaptation but a man can dream. The length is perfect for the usual 12 episode anime season format, and probably can alter the title a bit to be more acceptable. Super unlikely but something like kyoani would be insanely cool, though any other mainstream studio would work just fine as long as they can capture the manga's jaded atmosphere

Plus Size Elf. I think Kyoto Animation would be great, they did an awesome job with Dragon Maid. Plus Size elf seems like a good fit for them.

Do You Like Big Girls? Simply for the amount of sex in that show without it being a hentai. I think Sphere would be a good choice. They did Yosuga No Sora and didn't wimp out on the sex in that show.

A readaptation of the Kyougokudou novel series (Ubume no Natsu, Mouryou no Hako & Kyoukotsu no Yume) by Madhouse, in 24-26 episodes (or 3 movies) because the pacing on the Mouryou no Hako anime was awfully slow to fit the 13 episodes while the manga adaptation did the same in just 10 chapters.

Blue Flag (from Kaito) it is such a nice story and it has potential as a great romance/drama anime. Also PPPPPP but the manga got axed so there is no hope in there.
