Unadapted Manga/Light Novels

With Ashigei Shoujo Komura-san chapters being the this year's highlight on the blog in the manga side of things, if it gets an anime adaptation, how would you like if several manga and light novels get the anime treatment? Like if there's an manga or light novel that never got its own anime adaptation, can you name a few? One of them for me is Codename: Sailor V, because there were plans for an OVA of that prequel to Sailor Moon but it never happened, I mean, think about it: Minako would have given a change to be on the spotlight instead of Usagi. Another is The Isolator, given how Minoru Utsugi gains powers of isolation: a powerful shield around his body, cutting him off from the rest of world to meet his dead family.

  1. Please don’t Bully Me Nagatoro-san is a good one. It’s about the everyday life of a high school boy and an underclassmen girl that likes to tease him. At first I thought it would be a typical gag manga but turns out there is some character development. Art style is pretty good. You could tell the mangaka likes to draw facial expressions.

  2. Ashigei Shoujo Komura aside, most of my favorite mangas have been given the anime treatment. So much so that I can't of series off the top of my head. I guess there's the sequel to Rurouni Kenshin ... the one shot Yahiko no Sakabatō that would be good to see in anime form. There are also some manga series that I wish they would adapt the rest of the story like Ranma 1/2 and Rosario + Vampire.
