Interesting. I've never read the manga, but it sounds interesting. I'll probably watch it.

Never heard of Btoom! But as a uber-big Madhouse Fanboy, i'll defiantly be looking forward to this.

We're waiting on confirmation on that. (The image from earl.box doesn't actually list the designer.)

Kuroda's worked on a lot. Btoom could be more like Madlax and Phantom: Requim for the Phantom.

I am familiar with the manga and it's quite literally The Most Dangerous Video Game but I think it's too open ended for anime adaptation unless they turn it into The Running Man: The Animation.

There are better manga out there for adaptation {C o E, yes} but it has potential.

What's with the recent spate of Tron-like stuck-in-the-videogame lately! Laughing

I am guessing that you never saw Welcome to NHK and Eden of the East.It is survival action anime,and I have yet to see a bad one.

I only hope the manga is just already finished, Madhouse most of the time dont do second seasons and dont finish unfinished manga series like claymore comes to mind

The biggest mistake you made there is to assume it's about a run of the mill loser character but you're wrong.
