Bets on the next Hollywood Anime adaptation?

I think Bubblegum Crisis would work except for the fact that you'd never get a Hollywood studio to make a movie called Bubblegum Crisis. But otherwise, it's music-heavy cyberpunk with female Iron Mans fighting crazy robots.

Cowboy Bebop finally.

Why would anyone wish Hollywood on Cowboy Bebop:(
 
I've only watched a handful of anime, but I think Erased would do well. Very interesting plot and a great use of time travel.
 
How do you westernize Ippo? Wouldn't they become filthy rich? Especially Takamura.
I don't think poverty and wealth has ever played a fundamental role in the story except maybe Ippo helping out at the fishing shop

I don't think Morikawa has even touched on the matter of Takamuras wealth since he became world champ, and contenders wouldn't exactly be swimming in money even in America
 
Yuri on Ice. Isn't going to cost a good fortune and has internet popularity. Hell, handle it right, and you've got an Oscar contender on your hands.
 
I always thought you could make a really good movie out of Wolf's Rain. There's so much filler in the series that you could eliiminate it and make a very tight, fast paced, exciting, and emotional 2 hour story that stays true to core of the plot. Plus it doesn't seem to have a huge fanbase, yet alone a crazy fervent fanbase, that you could take plenty of liberties including the casting without it being under much scrutiny or comparisons to the anime.
 
Bleach, please. Me and my friends have a common saying when it comes to talking up potential movies - "get Nolan on it."
 
Attack on Titan
This would make the most sense, in terms of not only popularity of the source material, but also the fact that they wouldn't have to attempt to make any excuses for a lack of Asian cast members (they could still screw up and get called out for not casting someone Asian for Mikasa, though).
 
i want a master keaton adaption with hiroyuki sanada as taichi keaton.

the beauty of this adaption is there are no overarching stories, each chapter/episode is self contained so they could technically make a series of movies based up any chapter.
 
I think any racially homogenous sailor scout movies would be dumb as fuck. If we get sailor moon someone is going to be black, and hispanic and asian.

Yeah, it'll be rebuilt as power rangers for girls ... and I mean the current new movie power rangers, not even the old sentai shows.

Usagi will be renamed Sally and have the nick name Bunny , she'll played by a blond haired white girl.

Ami will just be Amy (short for Amanda) , they might actually put an Asian actress in this role (see because she's the smart one and stereotypes/tiger moms , etc ... ugh)

Rei will end up Erika or something and be played by a hispanic actress. No more shrine maiden backstory, perhaps her grandmother runs a small church :P

Makoto will end up being Mikeala and be played by an Afrikan-american actress because no other race is allowed to tall you see (again, ugh ugh on this but hollywood... )

Finally Minako will just be played by another blond haired white girl but her backstory will have her as a hannah montana type ... maybe she's from Europe ? french accent or something ? Re-named Michelle perhaps.

Guys... I'm sorry this is so horrible
 
It'll be something that was either made or localized in the nineties, because that's the current nostalgia bubble.

My bet is on either Cowboy Bebop or Sailor Moon.

Maybe Evangelion.
 
Whatever it is, it's unlikely to star an Asian person and will still not be a hit

Keep it up Hollywood
 
And France. I remember having trouble trying to find Saint Seiya stuff on the internet circa 2005 that wasn't on French.

Oh yeah! how could i forget France, we owe them the cheesy intro that we all pretend we hate but secretly love!


Also going back to people pitching mecha shows...

Just a thought: Cinematic universes are in, so if they made like, gundam or mazinger or FMP! or Big O or any, ya all damn well know there would be only one possible outcome:
