DiCaprio Considers SMAP for Ninja Scroll Film Updated – Anime News Network
I’m not all that surprised. I don’t believe I’ll see either film though. I’ve seen the anime movies and they warped my sensibilities so I really don’t need to see all that acted out “live”.
The comments afterward are insteresting and suprisingly positive. I guess anime fanboys are a little more forgiving and optimistic than comic fanboys. Oh, the article also broadened my anime horizons; I had no idea there was a Diary of Anne Frank anime. How weird is that? Does anyone else think that’s a strange subject for an anime movie?
