The Japanese sure know how to take a well established character and turn them on their head! Subscribe to our channel: http://goo.gl/ho3Hg6
Japanese media is quite often amazing. Series like Naruto, Dragon Ball and Deathnote have proved to be great hits. But sometimes, things get weird, such as these adaptations of western character and stories. Some of them, despite the weirdness turned out pretty well! These include the beloved Batman Ninja, a new animated series that you can check out now! It brings Batman to feudal Japan and honestly-it’s awesome. Another popular and well received set of adaptations were the Sherlock Holmes adaptation, Sherlock Hound which was partially directed by Miyazaki. There was also a Agatha Christie anime series with Murder on the Orient Express’ Hercule Poirot. The things get weird, like a version of the Avengers that rips into Pokemon. Seriously. A set of children trap the Avengers in disks and use them to battle Marvel villains. There’s a version of Wolverine that basically ruins the character by stripping him of his identity and a Batman anthology anime series that has almost no Batman. There were random and unusual versions of the Powerpuff girls and Teenage mutant ninja turtles that look nothing like the source material. A manga version of Star Wars upped the violence way up for seemingly no reason. Then there’s that one time a dragon ball directed made a Halo short film-in the vein of dragon ball! It was complete with environmental destruction and dinosaurs. It definitely felt like a lost DB episode, only with a Halo Spartan. Sometimes, things just get weird in Japan but weird doesn’t mean bad!
