This was arguably one of the more random episodes even in the anime, what with all the girls falling victim to Professor Itsuki’s magical aphrodesiac. But the yuri scene between Hazuki and Mutou also made it one of the more titillating eps as well. The live action version of it, on the other hand, just [...]

I should stop comparing events from the anime to events from the live action show. There’s plenty of similarities, and the live action has done a good job of maintaining the spirit of the anime version. But all the little details are basically different. Case in point. In the anime, it’s Tadayasu and his longtime [...]

I wish they broadcasted (or simulcasted) this show at a higher resolution than 360p. Encoding "real life" cleanly is a lot more difficult than encoding animation. So the show does not scale terribly well on a larger screen. It's fine for most scenes, but anytime there's action, you'll see blurring and some encoding breakup. But I digress. The third episode of Moyashimon introduces Haruka's whip and Aoi Mutou.

This is one of those well crafted show like Nodame Cantabile that give the viewer an enjoyable time laughing and don’t forget about those adoring tiny microbes. For those who have watch the 11-episodes anime series back in 2007 will be familiar about the premises and stroyline involving an agricultural university student named Sawaki Tadayasu, who possesses the unique ability to see microbes with the naked eye and interact with them. Furthermore, the story started out just as like the anime series does. Granted, more super cute microbes floating around! The CG used in ... Related posts:2 Gantz Live Action Film It’s All Drama Again The Bill Just Blew Me Away

Micro-organism and bacteria are essential for fermentation of sake, so its a natural combination that the anime series Moyashimon would have collaborated with a distillery to produce its own special awamori seifuku sake. Awamori Seifuku is actually Okinawa ...

The second episode of Moyashimon mixes in some things from a couple different anime episodes altogether, but otherwise, it seems pretty faithful to the original. Well, except for that big budget, blockbuster style intro. Moyashimon: Coming to a theater near you! For a second, I thought I downloaded a troll sub.

So yea apparently Moyashimon is now a drama I never bothered with the anime cause the character designs were pretty hideous but the drama is actually kinda watchable. Also the bacteria being in 3D is kinda cute!  I personally loved the Japanese yogurt bacteria rofl (in the ss above). They said DE GOZARU! It stars [...]

If it's good enough for NoitaminA, it's good enough for me. Even though it's not anime per se, I've decided to join in on the Moyashimon live action fun. Moyashimon was one of the first anime series I watched, and one of the more unique unique shows I've seen. Even though the anime unraveled a bit towards the end, I still have fond memories of the cute little microbes. If the first episode of the live action is any hint, 3D should be just as good as 2D (and if 3D Haruka is any indication, maybe even better than 2D).

This one is narrated by the cute Aspergillus oryzae, a type of mold which is the main fungus protagonist in this series.

SO HOTT!!!!!!! Damnit, another Hetalia spiky haired bishie that is as hott as Denmark. Damn author for giving me more bishies to drool on =P Bwahahahaha!=== Bakuman Anime ===Bakuman Anime coming in Fall 2010. No word on which company picked it up. The manga will get a color page this week.- Bakuman LJ Community, Weekly JumpWith Death Note's popularity and Bakuman being simply SO AWESOME . . . of course I'm not surprised with this~ Yay! The manga world is going to get introduced to anime fans through this~ Not all anime watchers are manga readers ya know~=== Moyashimon Manga Gets 2010 Live-Action Drama Green-Lit ===The website for Kodansha's Evening magazine has announced that an live-action television adaptation of Masayuki Ishikawa's Moyashimon: Tales of Agriculture manga has been green-lit for release in 2010. It will be the first live-action work on the Fuji TV's popular late-night Noitamina timeslot. The story follows a college student who discovers that he can see and communicate with the germs all around him — germs that appear as super-deformed characters.- Anime News NetworkIf the microbes will be the same as the ones in the OP, that would be awesome! The only thing to worry about would be the staff and the cast if that's the case. I love this series (even though I'm still not done watching the anime and not updated with the manga, ehehehe ^^;)=== More Code Geass Project News ===The long-planned project finally comes to materialize. “The new project, ‘Renya of the Dark,’ will be an episode within the ‘Code Geass History.’ There will be stories from two different eras in the same world. The anime featured the ‘Lelouch of the Rebellion’ chapter, and we see this as the ‘Renya of the Dark’ chapter.” This “Code Geass” will be expressed through manga.- Anime News Network, Code Geass LJ Community, ggOkay . . . so it's actually a new Code Geass manga. And there's a new main character. But C.C. is still there, and the "mysterious man" looks so much like Lelouch; and I want to believe it's him, so I'm not complaining, hehe~

Kodansha’s Evening magazine has just announced that Moyashimon: Tales of Agriculture will be getting a live-action television adaptation sometime in 2010. This will be the first live-action show to air on Fuji TV’s popular late-night Noitamina time slot; and we all know how well that worked for Adult Swim. Either way, this television show will be filled to the brim with super cute CG bacteria and viruses, kind of like... the opening of the anime! If they can keep the same quality of animation in the television show as they do in the opening, this shouldn’t be all that bad. A college student who figures out he can communicate with single celled organisms, despite this crazy power this show is pretty normal. Which makes it a perfect candidate for a live-action television show. What do you think?
