Video Games to Anime: Some Adaptations That Wouldn't Completely Suck (Vol. 1)
from Otaku Melancholy · host The Otaku Melancholy Team
Video games! They're like anime except they're not like anime at all except for when they're entirely like anime or have anime influences or are based off anime or have anime in them. They're basically anime, yeah? As long as the human race has been on this Earth, we have sought out with great vigor to adapt video games to EVERYTHING for no reason. Like EVERYTHING. They tried to turn Sonic into a bath product. I know that's not an adaptation or anything but I'm going to count it anyways. So what video games do we think could make for good anime? That's what this episode is about and I hope you'll sit and enjoy it or work out and enjoy it or whatever. Just try to enjoy it however you can! Give us your ideas and thoughts too!
