Aku No Hana (Anime Series)
Synopsis: Quote:
In any case, I don't see them replicate things faithfully and I can't see the anime becoming a hit at all. But it will make for a great peek into the human psyche. Last edited by MakubeX2; 2012-08-05 at 05:31. |

This anime will not attract much of a following because none of the characters are likeable and it might strike too close to home for some people.
But if you are looking for something that focus on the human psyche and wants to go into topics about dissecting and discussing on it, here's the anime for you. |

Wow, I was just reading the latest (English) volume last night and wondering if this could ever get an anime.

Well I consider Nazo no Kanojo X to be quite a sweet story so I have no hard time believing this could be meaner!
Just wondering,how much is Les Fleurs du Mal referenced in the manga,are specific poems brought up? Also we don't have a studio but Nagahama Hiroshi (Mushishi) will be directing.

HELL YEAH! The Flowers of Evil - School Days edition. Should be awesome >=03! I actually had one qualm with the manga, but I left that reason in the manga thread if you want to know. Plus, the next volume should be out in the next couple of months, finishing the story. Perfect time for an anime.

There are no specific poems brought up, but the book's ideology(or at least the main char's interpretation of it) is.

Don't expect this to be Chihayafuru for Baudelaire. You can tell the main character is the sort of kid who thinks Fleurs du Mal is the best thing ever, and the story is definitely influenced by Baudelaire, but the main character doesn't break out direct quotes that often.

I've read some of the manga recently as well, and wondered if this might get an adaptation. It's very, very dark - MGX and Chihayafuru are not good comps at all - a less explicit "Sundome" is closer to the mark.

As for MGX -- it's a twisted love story with the same basic set-up of a weird girl discovering a loser guy doing something embarrassing and taking him under her wing. It's just that if Urabe was 6 on the weirdness meter, Nakamura's 11. Whatever you compare AnH to, the reactions in this thread should be as entertaining as the show itself. |
