Hmm, I wouldn't be too surprised if either Citrus (there was a teaser about it awhile ago) or Ubel Blatt gets an anime adaptation. One series I hope won't get an anime adaptation on the list would be Cage of Eden though ...

Corpse Party Blood Covered needs an adaption!

Kinda surprised Cage of Eden hasn't gotten one actually.

While not an anime, Takashi Miike NEEDS to do a live action movie for Inuyashiki. Maybe once he's done with Blade of the Immortal...

Even though the train left the station a long time ago, Naoki Urasawa's 20th Century Boys should have an animated adaptation. The live-action movies were decent, but a full animated series (and 21CB OVA) would be sublime.

I'd like to see Natsumi Ando's shoujo mystery Arisa get an anime adaptation. It's fast-moving, with one cliffhanger, big reveal, or crazy twist after another. The tension and excitement of the story worked so well that I always wanted more when I finished each volume, and that would presumably translate to an episodic anime.

Problem is, of course, the manga has long since finished, so it's unclear where the financial impetus to make an anime of this would come from. Well, as the article says, at least you can still just read it.

If Franken Fran got an anime, I might be able to die happy.

Give me a Vinland Saga anime. And please don't mention that crossover short from a month ago.

I know I must be the one of the minority asking for it, but I really want an anime adaptation for Vinland Saga, preferably by Production IG (with Wit) or Madhouse.

Ohhh, if Citrus gets an anime, I REALLY hope Mari Okada is in charge of the scripts. She'll be so perfect with the material!

Out of all these entries, Red River and Limit seem most worthy become anime.

(Since I already read RR and this Limit looks like It'll have tons of death.) Twisted Evil

IMHO... Sano Nami-sensei's Sakamoto desu ga? clearly NEEDS, no, it OUGHT to have an anime adaptation. Evil or Very Mad

I would love an Ubel Blatt anime. I've been hoping for one for several years now. I really should go back to reading the manga at some point.

I remember I dropped Cage of Eden at some point but I don't really remember where or why. Haven't read any other manga cited in the list.

As for manga I want to see animated, I'd have to go with Arachnid. Great action series with good animation would be even better.

Limit is my choice too. I love thriller in some remote area setting where the characters have fallen one by one. Apparently there was a live action version of Limit but I never bothered to even check it out as Japanese live action is usually very underwhelming.
