Just wondering.

[EDIT - Fixed the topic spelling. BTW, please include your own thoughts in the future, rather than just ask what everyone else's are. -C]

I'm a huge fan of Mugen no Juunin. I'd love to see that one make it into anime, but I'm not gonna hold my breath. It'd be pretty gruesome, and if not done properly could be very very ugly....

Well...how about this? Is it alright if I mention a manga that has been made into an anime, but there's a certain part that wasn't animated that should have been?

If so, Rurouni Kenshin: Jinchuu Arc and Hellsing: Millennium Group Arc. Anime smallmouth





P.S. -- Has the Millennium Arc even been completed yet? I heard it was still ongoing. Ah well, regardless, it beats out that Incognito BS, I can safely say that much...

Jinchuu Arc has been animated, but it's very very short. Rurouni Kenshin - Meiji Kenkaku Romantan Seisohen a.k.a. Samurai X: Reflection



I think X-Day is a perfect manga that has not been made in to an anime

Well, I meant a proper animation. Fleshed out to its fullest and not just...a flashback.

Well, my front runners are probably Wish (it's so precious, and it's CLAMP, what's the hold up?) and Wangan Midnight.

C'mon. Initial D made it onto TV, why can't we at least get a Wangan Midnight OAV?

Skip Beat!

I think it will make a great shoujo anime. Great comedy.

I don't know if you're a shojo fan or not, but if so, Peach Girl is definately a good one^^.

Oh, I forgot about Peach Girl. Also, another good manga is Mars, and a good manwha is INVU.
