Ok, so Madhouse (my fave anime production company) is again working their magic on the Marvel Anime Universe™ – this time with fan-favorite Wolverine, aka Logan. But there’s a catch: he’s been transformed from his original stubby-grumpy-clawed design into tall, luxurious-haired-clawed Bishonen. Which I guess is where we can credit Hugh Jackman for making Wolverine taller.
What you’ll see in the Wolverine Anime Trailer is a bunch of jumping/flying/clawing that shows off Wolverine’s new bishi look:
So what do you think? Does Bishi Wolverine work for you, or do you think he should have stayed stubby?
I love anime. Specifically, series involving any of the following things: weird fantasy elements, super-powers, robots, aliens, wicked humor, crazy villains, horror, ninjas and samurai. I guess that means I like a lot of anime. I am pretty particular about the quality of animation and voice acting. If the character designs and animation quality aren't of über-quality, I quickly loose interest.The first anime-related series I ever watched was Battle of the Planets - otherwise known as Gatachman. The first true theatrical anime feature film I saw was Akira. My first exposure to manga was later in life when I read Osamu Tezuka's Astro Boy.There are so many incredible elements of Japanese culture. Some of the most exciting to me are the style of design and storytelling. I'm a web designer & illustrator, and I find myself looking to Japanese design for inspiration all the time.Anime blogging has taught me even more about Japanese culture and anime than I ever expected, and I continue to learn more every week. In fact, I'd love to travel to Japan. Rachel and I hope to visit sometime within the next few years.
cool!! but i think they should stick with the original hair style:)
