Uhhh... I honestly am getting discouraged about this movie. Yes, Sei Satou look good, but after seeing the trailer, I feel a little bit taken aback. I should've known that live action movies of what was an anime will be like this. Ok, I have to admit that Yumi actually has her goofy looks like in the anime, but I don't know if it actually looks good in live action. Looks like I have to lower my expectations if I watch this. The movie will be released in Japan on November 6th, 2010.
While I have some live action yuri here, I'll add some more from this season's Moyashimon Drama. It's not the anime, but it's somewhat watchable even if some of it doesn't have basis in realism... Anyway, enjoy!
Yea. I'm not so sure marimite will be a good live action adapation. Agreed with the Yumi looking goofy though. I just cant see it as a good movie. When I first saw the marimite live action thing, I was thinking series. Series wouldn't be so bad. But it just doesn't have that oomph to be a good feature film.
ReplyDeleteBut on another note ! DUDE! I just did a blog post on Moyashimon drama today too. Very very short one. Like uber short. But a topic for today nonetheless .
Started my viewing of Moyashimon Drama thanks to you... XDc
ReplyDelete@soulfringe: I'm really really hoping it's actually better for the overall movie... I really want this to be good T-T A drama might actually be worse if the movie looks like this already.
ReplyDeleteHaha coincidence? On the same frame of mind, I guess, lol. I'm a bit behind though. Kamozusou!
@yunamon: Hahaha, enjoy! It's a bit of hit and miss.
Oh btw - I forgot to mention this, and your going to love it...
ReplyDeleteMy first blog post was on the moyashimon anime. Complete with some yuri screen shot. I cheered pretty hard at this scene.

@soulfringe: Haha that's an awesome way to start a blog XD I completely forgot that scene... I'm gonna have to rewatch Moyashimon anime :D
ReplyDeleteAs joked by some on twitter Maria watches over us anime is like a yuri anime except with no yuri. The movie trailer screenshots seem to suggest otherwise. Don't like the looks of it already. Besides Japanese movies are known to be not so fab in the first place, especially with the live action adaptations...
ReplyDeletegosh the girls look so expressionless in the movie *yawn* :P
ReplyDelete@Q: LoL, it's one of the more subtle yuri out there, yet it's the one people would think of when thinking of yuri/shoujo-ai. They probably won't go into the one with Sei's previous relationship, which was probably the most explicit relationship in the series, even though it's still mild ^^; I really, really want this movie to work though... Oh well.
ReplyDelete@chun: Haha it'll probably make you fall asleep if you watch the movie then XD
Moyashimon looks a lot better in comparison. It actually looks pretty sexy. I've been kind of craving some jdrama, so yea...
ReplyDelete@Yi: Go for Moyashimon. It's not too bad actually. One episode I didn't care about though. It's more JComedy than JDrama though ^^
