Inspired by the annual “Manga We Want To See Animated” ranking in Japan, a Twitter user conducted a similar poll to find the most desired manga adaptations among Western audiences.

Notably, titles already slated for anime production or those with existing adaptations were excluded from consideration.

When we recently compiled our list of science fiction movies based on true stories, one film that didn’t make the list was Christopher Nolan‘s Oppenheimer. After all, the technology behind the nuclear bomb can no longer be said to be undiscovered, sadly. Nonetheless, Oppenheimer remains the archetypal science fiction story—one about a mad scientist who devises a new machine that changes the world through terrible unforeseen consequences. He is an an American Prometheus, yes, but also a regular Yankee Frankenstein. More than that though, by ushering in the nuclear age, Oppenheimer may have lit the fuse on the genre of cinematic science fiction.

It is hardly a new observation, but walk into any cinema in the 1950s and you will find no shortage of creatures, monsters, or occasionally people grown to giant size by the mysterious power of radiation. You don’t need to look too closely...

Best known as the creator of the Japanese Ju-on series and The Grudge franchise, Takashi Shimizu is back with a brand new movie, titled Homunculus and now streaming on Netflix. The live-action film adapts the cult classic manga by Hideo Yamamoto (Ichi the Killer). In Homunculus, “Truth and illusion blurs when a homeless amnesiac awakens from an experimental medical procedure with […]...

Although in terms of series, Netflix is doing a nice enough job regarding its Japanese content, the same does not apply with the movies, and particularly the anime/manga adaptations, with titles like “Bleach” and “Full Metal Alchemist” being mediocre, to say the least. Unfortunately, the same applies to the adaptation of Hideo Yamamoto’s homonymous manga, which seems to suffer both from terms of writing and direction.

The story revolves around Susumu Nokoshi, a 34-year-old man who once worked for a top foreign company, but now finds himself hopeless, hanging around a park in Shinjuku with others who share the same fate. One fateful night, he meets medical student Manabu Ito, who is eventually revealed to be the owner’s son, who also happens to be looking for volunteers to undergo a surgical procedure known as trepanation, essentially having a hole drilled in their skull that can potentially unleash the brain’s restricted potential.
