Mm, I think this would be the best way to go considering the manga does have some gory scenes. The storytelling of this series imo is good so I'm hoping they stay faithful to the material.

Never heard of the manga before, but the story sounds awesome. If it gets a budget anywhere near the size of the Mardock Scramble trilogy this could be pretty amazing.

Just bought the first two volumes recently. This is the best way they could go about doing it considering the content.

I saw this a couple days ago, and said "huh?"because I didn't see any news for it...now it makes sense.

Please tell me Production I.G. got it. Give us I.G. and Mamoru Oshii and these will be exceptional movies

Yeah, now I'm really interested to see who is going to be behind the production. IG or Gohands would be my picks to animate it for sure. Not sure who I'd like behind the helm, but Oshii would definitely not be a bad choice.

I want I.G. to do everything tbh, they do such a fantastic job when adapting. GoHands are great too but with the new K season coming I can see them saving budget for that.
Hell if I.G. get it we could even get Goro Tanguichi or Tetsuro Araki helming it!!

I enjoying the manga's story so far, so I hope the movies will try to adapt it as closely as possible.

This is interesting news. I'm curious about the manga and haven't had a chance to read it. I may have to do an ILL request and check it out. But definitely looking forward to this project.
