Episode 11 nowBy episode three I was thinking the exact same thing about a live action HBO adaptation

We just might get it:Last year, speaking at the fourth annual Hero Complex Film Festival, del Toro said he has submitted a pilot script for the adaptation of Naoki Urasawa's award-winningMonster manga to HBO and was waiting to hear from the cable network if the series would go forward.
“You cannot compress ‘Monster’ into a feature,” del Toro said of the project he is co-writing with “Doctor Who” and “Sherlock” writer Steven Thompson. “‘Monster’ is almost like Chekhovian, it has all these little characters that are incredibly smart and delineated. Each of them has an arc and if you follow all of them, at the end of the last book you will be satisfied.”
At the time, in order to get permission, he needed to agree to submit an outline of every episode of the theoretical first season to Urasawa. Del Toro added that series would have a relatively short total length as it will strictly follow the manga’s 18 volumes with nothing added to increase seasons or episode count.

By episode three I was thinking the exact same thing about a live action HBO adaptation





route - my second fav route and some say it's the true sequel to Fate Zero due to it touching on certain events like Sakura and Toshaka's past, which is barely mentioned in the other 2 routes. You also see how truly messed up Sakura is compared to the nice quiet girl you see in the other routes. It would be nice to see this animated sometime in the future, tho I'm sure they're gonna have to edit a few things out
. It does have some badass battles I would love to see animated, too.
Ended up typing a lot more than I wanted to lol.
. I had high expectations for this show.
