5 Incredible Animes That Deserve A Live-Action Remake
1. Monster
Out of all the choices on this list, Monster might be the one with the most potential if done correctly. It was once optioned by horror auteur Guillermo Del Toro and for good reason, as the manga and anime are considered to be some of the greatest to ever be produced.
Unlike the other shows on this list, none of the characters have superpowers, take drugs to make themselves stronger or ride around in spaceships. No, this is a straight-up thriller with an absolutely incredible story that would have fans on the edge of their seat every single episode. The show follows super surgeon Dr Kenzo Tenma as he hunts down a serial killer who has framed him for a murder, but so much more happens along the way.
Although Monster is fantastic as it already is, it does have its issues - particularly the pacing of the show as it can feel like a bit of an emotional drag on occasion. By giving it a revamp, taking out the weaknesses that held it back as an anime and focusing on the strengths such as the plot, visuals and character development whoever takes a chance will have a monster hit on their hands.
