can we get a take two on that welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’re counting
down our picks for the top 10 anime that
need to be rebooted or revived
for this list we’ll be looking at the
enemy that we believe should be remade
to follow the original source better or
need to be revitalized and given a
sequel series to continue the original
plot in other words you know shows that
need the Full Metal Alchemist
Brotherhood treatment you could say he’s
used its energy to claim the powers of
God for himself now you please put on a
shirt as such we’ve included a mesh of
anime that range from lackluster to
impressive finally be aware of a few
spoilers down the line since we’ll be
discussing endings to certain shows
betrayer you say don’t talk about it
like you have a right to judge us number
10 who Tony Kenshin into while his
exploits have had the odd revival here
and there we believe that it’s time for
the manslayer to unleash his blade once
again and half his story be told for a
new generation Kimo detentions journey
of redemption amidst the conflicts of
Japan still remains one of the better
anime of the 90s filled to the brim with
laughs tears and epic sword fights and
now let’s begin
not only would a reboot bring his
battles with the likes of Shi shuo
Makoto to a whole other level but would
allow for the inclusion of some of
mangaka Nobuhiro Watsuki ‘he’s more
recent Kenshin related works such as
restoration and to rule flame and I have
no choice
die but Ozai over here number nine the
flowers of evil why not so Ananda shot
guy did they get that solution
shusui oh she meas tale of youthful
relationships and all the confusion that
can come with them was well-received
amongst readers introspective look at
the mindset of two students who’s
misguided desires not only act as a
source of tragedy but a somewhat
inspiring learning curve was fascinating
the anime could have matched this save
for one glaring issue of the animation
by using rotoscoping techniques the
whole look of the anime seems somewhat
lifeless and jarring serving as a
distraction
instead of magnifying the emotional
turmoil of the characters once more it
would be nice to see the mangas ending
animated though Oh gotcha number eight
zette man
clearly inspired by darker comic-book
heroes the original manga followed two
protagonists one cursed with the ability
to transform into a super-powered being
known as zet and the other so desperate
to become a hero he gets himself an
armored suit kick-ass no Johnny won’t oh
no hero a comedian see all familiarity
to Marvel and DC characters aside it’s
fair to say that due to its limited run
the anime adaptation had little time to
explore the dynamics between its leads
which ultimately resulted in an
underwhelming series of battles between
generic experimental creatures better
luck next time guys number 7 Gantz
holy shit here comes another one despite
being utterly unapologetic when it came
to blood gore sadism and sex the life or
death situations that surrounded our
hardly noble protagonists were
nonetheless addictive while the anime
certainly touched on some of its darker
themes it’s fair to say that a remake
would be welcomed among fans especially
if they decide to go a step further and
remove the previous censorship and
include the official manga conclusion
I’ve stopped feeling pain the result
would no doubt be filled with unlikable
people killing and getting killed by
horrific alien beings with plenty of
hardcore subject matter in between yeah
we know there recently was a CGI
adaptation of the Osaka arc but that
just ain’t gonna cut it
[Music]
number six soul eater please come again
yeah
easy there no one is disputing how much
fun this series is with a great cast
that range from the studious maka the
emotionally shattered Crona the
hilarious death the kid and of course
the native sex kitten Blair however
anyone who knows anything about the
manga calls bullshit on the animes
ending maka managing to defeat evil
incarnate with a single punch really
didn’t leave many satisfied especially
considering the highs and lows the show
had been riding until then receiving a
reboot would allow the series to extend
much further into the plot of the source
material not to mention we would finally
see soul become a deaf sign number five
Akane got killed
the heroic assassins of nitrate and the
beautiful sadist s death have become
modern anime icons with their respective
series balancing intriguing characters
bloody scuffles and a fittingly dark
ending yomo no acuna de tous de nada
Kuya scary but Co cannot amido however
due to the animes reasonable but still
concise 24 episode run certain plot
points were rushed and then they did
what we hate the most an anime original
ending it would be fine if they left it
open for a sequel but by killing off
most of the cast they really screwed the
pooch on this one so buddy oh my god yo
good number for Bleach I Got News for
you you’re not the only one who wants to
win you all knew it was coming despite a
heavy amount of filler this shown in
juggernaut ended just before the release
of the mangas final art even with all
the controversy surrounding it it’s only
fair that we see Ichigo and company get
their happy ending after slaying their
way through the entire Quincy army of
course let’s have a duel to determine
which one of us is stronger the Quincy
or the Soul Reaper whatever the results
would be whether a revival would follow
the manga to the letter or would have
the guts to beer off in its own
direction it would be quite the sight to
see all right goodbye
number three looming neck oh when they
cry
anyone who simply watched the anime of
this series will likely be thoroughly
unimpressed and this is an absolute
crime the original source material the
visual novel series booming echo no naku
koro knee spans over eight incredible
installments which simply cannot be
contained in a rush
unfinished 24-episode anime series the
moolah seems that the tension between
battler and Beatrice the gruesome
murders and the mind-bending plot twists
all need to be properly adapted into a
series that can truly hit the same tone
instilled by the original stuff number
two
Tokyo ghoul if you’re not already
exposed to the original Tokyo ghoul is
pretty damn good however for those who
don’t know the manga well it makes the
anime look like a pg-13 slap fight if
the series were to be rebooted and
follow the original narrative the anime
would switch Shara from showing to
seinen the fights would be even more
brutal the death scenes would be all the
more upsetting and connect II would end
up suffering even more you kaneki it’s
still baffling that Studio Pierrot
decided to rush the series and skip such
integral plot elements and the less said
about route a the better a little
motorcycle note before we reveal our
number one pick here are a few honorable
mentions
[Music]
[Music]
yeah that’s my first year that’s great
this is mine too Oh
number one fate/stay night I am saving
your servant I have come in response to
your summons
any fans of the franchise will tell you
that fate zero and unlimited blade works
are some of the greatest modern
contributions to the fantasy anime Chara
the original series though not so much
similar to type moons other projects
Sookie he may the first undertaking of
turning this widespread visual novel
into an actual animation certainly
doesn’t blow anyone away especially when
compared to its far more positive source
material I’d refer if you didn’t change
the subject with the heavens field
adaptation on the horizon why not have
you Poe table round out the series in
style by doing some justice to the fate
route do you’ll be with our list what
