I don't know how it is going to work but I am watching this

We got a glimpse in the first ending of Bridge x Bridge. It works, but will creep you out. Thankfully, most of the cast is moderately more human.

Oh man I can't wait to see some of the "masks" that they are going to use.

Even live action Maria still looks seductive.

Master_Yoma · 2011-06-16, 22:12

I want to know what are they smoking or on when they made this. It looks like some thing you have to watch well on acid or high as a kite to watch this

That's a fair assessment of the anime version of Arakawa as well. Shaft's eccentricities can't make it to live action, but if it can achieve, say, a Carranger level of weirdness, that'd be satisfactory.

Live actions never turn out well...

Patriot's Blade · 2011-06-21, 02:04

the budget reminds me of the Kamen Rider & Super Sentai episodes & movies for some reason...

omimon · 2011-07-29, 07:17

Well the first episode showed that they are pretty much heading towards a different direction with this.

HAHAHA ALREADY A MOVIE? I love Arakawa to death and we've already seen that it can be converted into live-action (previews, ed sequences). I'm very excited for this.
