I don't know if I hope they remove or keep in the scene with the seagull-ass-sucking.

Why are they screening live-action in a slot that is literally called 'Animation' spelled in reverse? Just because the anime adaption screened in that shot? Seems a bit odd.

I would have been happier with a second series. :/ Really liked the anime, but I don't think I will watch the live action.

They are going to have to animate the bacteria in though.

I've always thought a live-action verison would be interesting...mostly because of the anime's opening.

If they make this live action like the opening theme, I will be super happy. I've always loved that opening, and the bacteria are adorable. Moyashimon is one of my favorite anime (just finished watching it again last night), and I'm desperately hoping someone like Nozomi will license it.

Interesting, but I think I'd have rather had a sequel to the first series.

And yes, I DO hope they keep in all the weird "food", especially Kiviat!

Knowing the opening, it could work brilliantly.

If it's good, it might be the first ever Live-Action Japanese show I watch.

Unfortunately not. After having to recall and reissue the first volume, it looks as though Del Rey have put back the release of the second volume until May.

What was wrong with the first volume?

Someone changed their mind about how they wanted the SFX and signs handled. In the first printing that was recalled, they were directly overlays. In the second printing, they are all in the margins.

Can I have a source? I'm not disputing you facts, I just want to read about it. Shocked

This blog entry is not official, but speculation. But they do provide pictures from their advance reader copy, and the official release.
