But when it comes to shounen, first ass pull or exposition dump through outspoken monologue and I'm out. Just because your demographic is children doesn't mean you have to dumb it down to goldfish level.

I really enjoyed the OVA + movie and although this is written by someone else it should still be fun.

Why all the classics anyway? I don't think it'll get them much money. Plus plenty of good stuff that are more recent (aside from romcom harems) to adapt out there that they are overlooking. :L
Though probably will watch. Haven't gotten around to Black Jack anyway.

Damn, I totally forgot to watch the old Black Jack series.....gotta marathon 'em all.
I recommend the OVA from the early 90's by Osamu Dezaki. Great interpretation and excellent cinematography to them.
