neat! tried watching the older one once and the subs weren't quite at the point where they made sense. I wish this could get an anime reboot, but live action will have to do Cool

Kyou Kara Ore Wa kicks ass, hope they find actors who really care about the source material, wether this becomes something good or not is largely going to depend on the actors, Kyou Kara Ore Wa is all about personalities.

I think there used to be a bad sub for it. But there is a better one and perfect in that regard: Check Saizen-fansubs and HnG collaboration. Good Italian DVD-rips with proper English subs!

And yes, I'm happy that they've decided to pick this one up. It's a show where live-action could work pretty well. I hope it's good as the source material and maybe that we got more anime stuff from it!

Yūichi Fukuda (live-action Gintama, HK/Hentai Kamen, Super Salaryman Mr. Saenai) is directing the series. Fukuda previously worked with Kaku on the live-action television series Yūsha Yoshihiko to Maō no Shiro. Fukuda directed the series, and Kaku played a policeman in the 11th episode.


If you're gonna list Mr. Saenai on that previous show list, you might as well use that instead of a random cameo on Yoshihiko for your collaboration example (plus, Mr.Saenai aired in 2017, as opposed to Yoshihiko back in 2011). Kaku played a recurring role on Mr. Saenai as a coworker of the main character. He also played Aren in Fukuda's Saiki Kusuo movie (which is more recent too!), and he was also one of the main characters for Fukuda's Amazon Prime Video drama Businessmen VS Alien.
