posted on by Eric Stimson
The college-oriented Japanese web site MyNavi Student, capitalizing on the recent Parasyte live-action film announcement, asked 599 people which live-action adaptations of anime they felt were the biggest failures. Here are the results.
#1: DRAGONBALL EVOLUTION, 67 votes
#2: Gatchaman, 14 votes
#3: Devilman, 13 votes
#4: NANA, 11 votes
#5: Fist of the North Star, 8 votes
#6: Sazae-san, 7 votes
#6: Kochira Katsushika-ku Kamearikouen-mae Hashutsujo, 7 votes
#8: Casshern, 4 votes
#8: Rookies, 4 votes
#10: Yatterman, 3 votes
#10: Space Battleship Yamato, 3 votes
#10: Black Butler, 3 votes
Among the reasons cited for Dragonball: Evolution winning this dubious honor: "There were almost no elements from the original story," "The characters and story were a mess," and "the leaping 'Kameameaa.'"
