Idk how this will turn out, but I don't know how I feel about a few things. Like making Kodaka's hair Platinum. Razz

I'm not a fan of any live action so will pass on this but I do have to say that the PV was catchy to watch.

Exactly. He's half-American, not half alien.

Is the character in the bottom left supposed to be Kodaka?

Edit: Oh, lordy, it is. Yyyeah, that doesn't look like him at all.

Yozora looks fine but Kosaka on the poster just screams Justin Bieber for me. Hope he'll look better in the actual live.

It's Kodaka.

Yozora is hot by the way

I think the director got blonde and platinum mixed up. And I agree, live action renditions of anime/manga/light novels are almost universally bad. I shudder to imagine what the live action Attack on Titan movie will look like.

Oh give me a break these don't affect you or how you enjoy the anime adaptations unless you're crazy.

That has less to do with the fact they're adapting a light novel/anime/manga and more to do with how campy Japanese dramas are.

I agree on both points. One, it doesn't matter if live action productions are made, chances are most Western fans aren't gonna watch them. In Hanagai's case, I only like to read the light novels, so I don't watch the show, and I won't watch the film.

Secondly, you're right, Japanese dramas as a whole tend to suck. I'm not saying that America has all great shows, but some of them (Game of Thrones, Sopranos, Breaking Bad) have no equal in Japan.

So Kodaka can have blonde/platinum hair, but not Sena....sorry but I know Sena for her Blue Butterfly and Blonde hair, and it would be kinda awkward other wise.
