New day, new post! For today's blog post, I will be talking about live action anime adaptations. For those of you who don't know, it's actually quite common for anime to get live action adaptations. However, fans often tend to dislike this greatly. This is mostly because anime is watched for more than just its story. Many people love the expressiveness of the art, especially with things like Studio Ghibli. There are many things you can do in an animated setting that you can't do with live action versions. Not only can it be less expressive, but the characters no longer feel like themselves. This is why many anime fans just don't like live action adaptations. They generally don't do well at all, but for some reason they keep making them. Original works can be absolutely beautiful and fantastic. But if you take something that already exists and make it something it isn't, then you'll have to deal with the backlash that comes from the pre-existing fans. Instead of making a good movie or show of your own that people will like, you're instead making something that has to compete with the original. This is another reason why people often don't like these. But, these are mostly just my thoughts on this topic. No matter how many people dislike this, companies will still keep doing it in hopes of making any money off of it. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!
