This is the type of column that a shipper might dig. I could add that Rave Master's Haru/Elie (who do get married) and Fairy Tail's Natsu/Lucy have or do get closer in fighting alongside each other.

The article's title could also serve (maybe unintentionally) have another meaning. As a couple, they might have sex but also have disagreements.

I don't want a reboot of Twelve Kingdoms, I just want more of it! So I went with Fruits Basket for the poll, because even though Takaya's passionate loathing of the 2001 adaptation pretty much ensures that a new anime is completely impossible, I really would love to see a proper adaptation for my favorite manga of all time.

Boy, this week's poll is a tough choice. I'd love to see a sequel to Ergo Proxy or The Girl Who Leapt Through Time, but I know that's not the same as a reboot.

Soul Eater might be fun because you could see how the manga ended.

I would actually love to see a reboot of Berserk that didn't just tread over the whole "Golden Age" arc again. There is so much more to the story than the Band of the Hawks (as cool as they were).

Vampire Princess Miyu would be a cool reboot too. Also, it would be fun if they could remake Loki Ragnarok and have it actually follow the manga this time around.

I voted for Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle because Bee Train absolutely ruined it. I'd love to see the whole series done in the style of the OVAs.

While I'd like to see Berserk carried on, and it would probably require a reboot to do that (forget the movies), there's not much point if the manga is never going to be finished in my lifetime.

So I'd most want to see a Kenshin reboot, and finally see the Jinchuu arc get its proper due. I still don't know what they were thinking with the Kyoto do-over, but that was a complete waste of money and effort. Like Hunter x Hunter, I'm sure some of the already done episodes would turn out both better and worse in various respects, but if they could do justice to the Jinchuu arc as HxH did for the Chimera Ants, it would all be so worth it.

As for the List, Italy & Germany from Hetalia? ::flees::

With examples like the Berserk movies, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, and Sailor Moon Crystal, what anime series would you most want to get a reboot?


How about Berserk again? Those movies were artfully vacant and pointless. I hope it hurt Studio 4C that they bombed.

I'd like to see a longer version of Bartender, including more in the plot and showing more of Ryuu's past. The live-action was dreadful, and while the anime is one of my favorites, it just feels episodic, missing some of the better stories, like the spoiler[one with the Latin American singer and Cuba Libre]

I wrote in Great Teacher Onizuka for the new poll. I would be fine with simply animating the rest of the manga (the non-animated chapters have great stuff). But I would not mind seeing another studio animate it from the beginning and condense all the manga story to 36-39 anime episodes.

Personally, I'd love to see a reboot of Angel Beats!, in the sense that the original really needed another cour to flesh out the rest of the characters' stories and how Otonashi and Co. was able to save them.

Out of all the couples, I'd say Yūji and Shana took the war part of it to another level. Though, I hated that last season, ruined the whole series for me.

As for the poll, finding it hard to think of something I'd want rebooted. There are plenty that I want sequels for, like The World God Only Knows, but an outright remake? Hmm, well, a recent one would be Brynhildr in the Darkness, but I don't know if I want that one enough...

Yeah, I'd have an easier time electing series that I want sequels for, rather than remakes. M3 and Glasslip come to mind as series that could be remade to make them a lot better than they were. Laughing

Could go with Red Data Girl, as that could've been 2 cour and they could've covered the last book, along with taking a little time to explain aspects of the story better. Instead of just being a series made up of 12 episodes that covered all but the last book and being one where many felt like they got lost in parts of it. *Votes Other*

The exact same way the anime did, actually. Worse, actually. Read the ending, and immediately canceled my order for volume 11 & 12 and put up my 01-10 up for sale. Yes, THAT BAD.

I went with Fruits Basket. It's an old love of mine and I'd love to see the anime properly adapted with the entire manga material.

I just picked off the 10 or so choices that were already there because otherwise I'd be here all day debating what to fill in the "Other" slot.

(Like Inuyasha, all done like Final Act....)

Another high up choice would be Card Captor Sakura... but I have a feeling that's already in the works.

Ranma & Akane rarely fought together. I can recall maybe two events where they worked as a team, but other then that, they went solo.Everyone on this list has a LOT of tag-team/co-op battles.

PS: Cure Black VS Cure Moonlight would be freaking EPIC.
