This could be fun. Of course, I'd rather have another anime season and the manga available in English legally, but the story is so good, it could work in multiple formats.

I could see him as Mob, but the visuals are really what made the series such a delight, and I don't see that translating at all to live-action.

I'll look forward to this but I'm even more excited about Thursday's announcement. Fingers crossed for a second anime season!

That's literally me right now. I cannot wait for Thursday's announcement and I pray this is a second season.

People respect live action more than animation.

Koichi Sakamoto directing? Totally on board with this.

This is one of the live-action drama series that I am excited to see, especially knowing that Koichi Sakamoto is directing this. Look at his work on Kamen Rider and Ultraman, especially his work on Kamen Rider. Heck, you might even see some of his stock footage in Power Rangers Dino Charge.

If I would recommend a good Koichi Sakamoto work, I suggest watch Kamen Rider Fourze x OOO: Movie Wars Mega Max and Mega Monster Battle: Ultra Galaxy Legend.

EDIT: Looks like the official Netflix page for the series is now up.
