I do think that one could work.

Should be a lot easier than One Piece at least.

Why do they continue to mutilate anime. None of the live action series have been GOOD, and did any of them actually do well? Really don't understand this "fad"

It does boost brand awareness so I get why the franchise owners keep doing it. Cowboy Bebop's cred didn't drop.

Except when the live action is poorly done, which happens often enough, it doesn't usually entice people to watch the source material

The Cowboy Bebop live action show got a ton of views, but the negative reaction (generally from people who watched the anime, not new viewers) means there won't be a second season.

I didn't hate the Bebop live action. It got a couple episodes and characters right (Spike/Jet, the Pierrot le Fou episode), but everything else was weird and off-putting.

And hey, dropping a second season saved us from anymore Live Action Radical Edward.

I would say that it doesn't have to be a "usual" case to be worth it if the audience was large enough. 10% of viewers watching the source material could be a lot. There's also all the lead up marketing and hype that could already entice people. Certainly lots people who never heard of cowboy bebop or one piece or what have you will learn about it cause of netflix.

As always, I will go into this with an open mind but keep my expectations low. If it's bad, whatever, it doesn't change how good the anime is.

Kinda surprised people are giving this so much attention. No reason to think it'll be any better than the live action Bleach or Attack on Titan or Shin Megami Tensei adaptations or whatever.

I don't really mind when an anime gets a crappy live-action US adaption out of the blue. The anime is still there when it's all said and done, and you didn't want a live-action US version anyway.

It's much more upsetting when books get a crappy live-action adaption, because you hoped the books would get a great adaption and now your hopes are dashed, maybe forever. And worse, the crappy adaption is now what people think of when they hear about the book.
