Seriously, man.

What person in the right mind would make a movie out of a backwater doujinshi that portrayed the evils of reality as well as showing random (and unnecessary) rape whilst instilling readers to give up on life without even trying when the show they strived to make is the exact opposite? Especially when said work printed money?

That's just asking for an early retirement, really.
Because if Kyoto Animation can make 8 episodes of the same plot, then surely they can make a Gainax ending out of something like K-On!

I'm pretty sure they won't make the movie an adaptation of Requiem 5 a Dream, but it could be possible if KyoAni had a new head/director/CEO who wants "more realism" or shit like that.

When i did work for the BBC and Channel 4 in the UK, it was the total opposite of Japanese TV. Everything is all about "realism". They demand more depressed British working class citizens rather than optimistic happy-go-lucky types. And thus you get shows like Skins and Eastenders where Requiem 5 a Dream's storyline seems to be a daily routine for the characters of those shows.

And with the current recession/inflation/whatever and the success of the fucked up "Welcome to the NHK" makes it possible for something in the likes of Requiem 5 a Dream to be made into an anime series.
