The 9 best anime movie adaptions

anime is a growing cultural phenomenon with great masterpieces such as death note and one piece , but one thing that  (I believe) the anime industry will be able to do right are anime move adaptions.

And this is actually a huge compliment to the anime movie industry, because I say this without any exaggeration that these movies are absolute utter s***. everything from the acting to the adjusted plot lines, is horrible. there's no other way to describe it.

but its not entirely their fault either. you can't remake a live action version of dragon ball z with a limited budget and only 90 minutes, and then hope to have a hit. you just can't. thats why we have and love ANIME!!.

but despite all this if some of you guys still want to give these movies a try, here are some movies that are tolerable and might not make you hurl.

Mushishi

a young man who is obsessed with mushi , its mysteries and meaning , travels across the country following rumors of its existence and attempting to figure out its secrets and those of perhaps life itself

death note (2006)

Rurouni Kenshin

this epic tale revolves around a samurai, Kenshin, who resolves never to kill again after a lifetime of brutality. this movie has excellent action sequences and is a great adaption of the original.

Blood: the last vampire

in the midst of the American war in Vietnam , a young vampire is sent by the Americans to Japanese soil, with the sole purpose of destroying a monster.

Black Butler (2014)

this movie takes on a different perspective by basing the main character in an original story but the same universe. where he helps a (movie only) child to avenge the death of her parents. this movie does skillfully well without the pressure of stacking up to its original series.
