Today, we brought you a small list of the worst Live Action Animes for you not to watch! Or, if you're curious to know why they're so bad, watch it! In any case, several times they have tried to recreate renowned Japanese works in real life, but things almost always don't end very well. So, let's check out some of them that were failures:
Worst Live Action Anime – True Failures
Dragon Ball Evolution: And who doesn't remember this icon that became a meme at the time of its release. Because here, we see that Hollywood managed to turn a true work of art into a joke. Furthermore, the characterizations of the characters were banal and disregarded, in addition to the narrative that was without the slightest connection compared to the original work.
In fact, another point where the feature film fails are the scenes that become ridiculous. The producers certainly never watched an episode of Dragon Ball nor read a page of the manga to write the scripts.
Death Note (2017): Now, another iconic moment in cinema, it was definitely this Death Note feature in 2017. Therefore, it is impressive how the United States has this tendency to mischaracterize all Japanese culture and try to adapt it to Western culture . Therefore, the film was a real fiasco, as literally all the characters in the work were deconstructed and mischaracterized.
Without a doubt, the script and narrative were also very calm, which ended up making the final result even worse on the small screen. On the other hand, it is also worth criticizing the actors, who performed well below expectations.
Worst Live Action Anime – Big Disappointments
Shigatsu Wa Kimi No Uso: This one, which was certainly one of the biggest successful anime at the time and touched everyone's hearts! However, the Live Action work was something that was expected, but it disappointed everyone. Firstly, it is worth saying that it would never work to compile the entire original work into just a few hours of film.
In fact, I also highlight here the terrible performance of the actress who played the female protagonist, as she gave a very superficial performance and doesn't even compare to the emotions you feel in the original work. So, I highly recommend reading the manga or watching the anime.
Attack on Titan: And finally, let's talk about one of the most popular anime today, especially with its final season getting closer and closer. On the other hand, the live action was a real disappointment for fans, where they basically changed everything from the original work. Not to mention that the special effects are literally horrible! Honestly, trying to bring all the effects you see in an anime to real life will never work.
Anyway guys, this was our special list of the day. I hope you enjoyed it and don't watch any of these works. I wish you all a great week and see you next time!
