If Cave Story Was an Anime...

1.) What would it be like? Different? The Same?

2.) Would it be a movie or show?

3.) What production company would probably make it? Examples:

Studio Ghibli

Viz Media

diph.php


Aniplex

4.) Would it have a larger fan base than it does at the moment?

Re: If Cave Story Was an Anime...

This thread has been created countless times.

Studio Ghibli does original work, as far as I've seen. It wouldn't fall into that category AT ALL.

If it was like Nayrootoe then I would probably keel over and die.

If Cave Story was an Anime, it would most likely be terrible. Video game-to-anime adaptations, don't really work..from what I've seen at least.

Nope it would NOT work. And either way i dont think any studio would think of adapting cave story into an anime.

I thought the .hack animes were pretty good :x
That's just my opinion.

Eh, it would be interesting.

Yeah that's what I thought after making this thread, I guess I was inspired by this:



And yes I know that's the credits to Blood +.

Spirited Away is my favorite childhood anime.

Then again I'd have a hard time naming even three animes I've seen while most of you people, can easily name twenty three.

It'd be nice to make it a high budget anime, full-HD, 3d with many special effects.

Oh yeah, forgot about that one. Well, they would never do a video game adaptation, I should have said.

Everything sucks to you!

EDIT: Uhh..isn't Gurren Lagann Gainax?

Did you know that Aniplex made Fullmetal Alchemist? You just didn't seem to mention it so I was wondering if you knew what they made.

Re: If Cave Story Was an Anime...

You guys should think about it this way. If CS was an anime - that is, if it was an anime, and not a game - what would it be like? If it was designed to be an anime, I think it might have a chance.
Wait, not an anime series, but an anime movie.

I'm still not sure if it would be good, but that would definitely be better.

I wouldn't watch it, since I don't think the premise would grab my attention.

Re: If Cave Story Was an Anime...

Okay, but would you say the same thing if a friend told you about a cool new game called Cave Story?
Or do you mean since you've already played cave story?
Also, would this thought mean exactly like CS, or fit to be a perfect-ish anime?

Re: If Cave Story Was an Anime...

Follow the adventures of a mysterious robot that wakes up in a cave!!! And he explores!!! Also he meets rabbit people, but we call them Mimigas.

I'd try it if someone recommended it to me, but it has a premise that makes sense mostly for a videogame.
