There's a live action version of Grave of Fireflies now? spoiler[eww. It was hard enough to watch the animated version. I'm not sure I could stand to watch actual kids "die."]

With Hollywood grabbing a bunch of anime properties because Hollywood's marketing team is out of ideas... I would like to see them get Grave of the Fireflies and see what their version of this tragic story would be like...

It's from the very last segment of Genius Party one of the best pieces IMO

I've never been a big fan of live action adaptions of animated source material (anime or otherwise). There's just something about seeing "real" versions of my favorite characters, that just seems wrong to me. >.>

Actually, when Hollywood actually decides to make their own version of Grave of the Fireflies, then we're going to have problems.
