NGE wasn't all that hard to figure out, like I said before, if you watch Abenobashi, and FLCL, you kind've get to understand the true meaning of those shows, all too well. Saikano is good, I'd like to spoil it, but then you wouldn't enjoy as much. You could pick up all the Saikano Anime for about $50, that's only $20 less that you'd have to spend for all the mangas. yet I'd still prefer that first, before the anime.
I've watched Ichi The Killer and the prequel about a dozen times, and I've read Koroshiya Ichi completely at least thrice in the past year. I even have a poster of Kakihara on my wall. It is my all-time favorite manga to movie adaption.
Nice. I like adaptions, don't get me wrong, I sat down and started with the Battle Royale manga first (Got all 15, of course) so when I watched the movie, I was kind've disappointed. But I remembered that it all started with the novel so I bought that and read it, then watched the movie again, still disappointed. Part two was Ok though, nothing to go crazy for. Then I hear the news that America is going to make an adaption of the Battle Royale movie. Oh, I can see it now, rich kids, poor kids, ethnicities, and heavily uneeded nudity to keep people interested in the movie. Coming soon to a theater near you in 2008.
