for some I want are:

Adarshan no Hanayome
Ice Revolution
Vinland Saga
Akagami no Shirayukihime

It already has a anime, though I believe it doesnt completely follow the manga.

I'm also going to have to go with the rest of Berserk.

Yes it has a Anime but I'd still rather seen it continued or started over more then any other manga I'm reading currently.

Well, some of these are actually complete, but I think they would really be improved with an animated version.

- Koibana Onsen (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=9974)
It's a bit on the mature side of ecchi, but it is a cute romance about hot spring resort run by three sisters that is famous for deepening the bonds between couples. The protagonist gets dumped after making a reservation there, but the girls are committed to ensuring he leaves with a positive view of their business (not that way!). He immediately falls in love with the middle sister and starts working there. Put it on a satellite channel and it will be fine.

- Salad Days (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=1186)
Like a much longer version of Hatsukoi Limited. Some of the stories don't have perfectly happy endings, and the main storyline has all the twists and turns one would expect.

- Change 123 (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=11058)
I don't know if I would want to do this one because there is still a lot more to the story, but casting alone would be very interesting. It would be a lot better if they only chose one actress for the 5 roles, and while it has been done before (Satomi Arai (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=26718) in Mahoraba) it would be harder when the series is less of a comedy. Haruka Tomatsu's sometimes unbelievable range would be well suited, but she's a little too cutesy sounding sometimes. The Mikiri side of the role when compared to the four would be the hardest part. Mamiko Noto (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=3166) is usually typecast, but I think her range has the correct mix of character types. Reserved Motoko (School Rumble, Ichigo 100%), outgoing and explosive Hibiki (Moyashimon, Witchblade), quiet and dignified Fujino (Index, Queen's Blade), and the childish and playful Mikiri (Witchblade and Moyashimon, but played younger and more hyper). Yu Kobayashi (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=16095) might be able to do it too. Sanae Kobayashi (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=3160) for that matter as well.

- High School of the Dead (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=4989)
A truly dark zombie series that really grabs at the best and worst parts of humanity during a crisis like that is something anime could use a bit more of. Satelitte channel as well, censorship (of the violence) would kill the series

- Mysterious Girlfriend X (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=4771)
A very weird, oddly alluring, but endearing high school romance series.

- Peridot (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=133)
If his crappy series Okusama wa Joshikousei (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=1622) was given an anime, surely his better work deserves one too. Fights, girls, self-sufficient heroine, and a healthy dose of humor.

- Shin Angyo Onshi (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=164)
Sort of like the Berserk argument, an movie/OVA isn't enough for this series. It needs to be done properly, a series as well written and well fleshed out as this one deserves nothing less.

- Superior (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=6685)
Superior is interesting. It starts as an almost comedy-romance, with a powerful Demon Lord falling in love with the hero that is supposed to kill her. Then it turns into a legitimate and very entertaining action-adventure, with the romance side still prominent, but not as central. Sheila is amazingly strong, and she switches between innocent lovestruck catgirl and imperial queen of destruction at all the right times, just in case you forgot who she really is.

- Yankee-kun to Megane-chan (http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=10829)
It's funny, and...I really don't have anything else to add to this. If you've read it, you'd understand why it would only be even better animated.

DDBen
Sun, 08-02-2009, 06:33 AM

I would also like to see more Claymore.

I'd also love more Claymore but like Berserk for this to happen they would have to modify certain episodes of the existing source material to make this really doable.

Speaking of finished Manga's that need the rest of the story animated. Beck anyone?

Change 123

Claymore- True to the Manga

Mysterious Girlfriend X

Psyren- Because I think it could turn out to be pretty awesome. Has humor and good action.

AIKI- Well...it's kind of interesting.

Air Gear ( season 2...please....I need it)

Zetman(!!!!!!!)- If you don't know this manga then go read it.

Alive the Final Evolution-Rather interesting to see this one animated as well.

I think that's about it for now.

Come on, they're not that bad. Japan is just focusing on the easy stuff, like mystery and h-games. There are an equal number of those that have been neglected (for legitimate reasons or otherwise). There isn't even a decent Tsukihime anime, all the stupid comedy that comes with an X-Change series, Brave Soul (more Mogudan artwork like Scrapped Princess), or even the sequel to Fate/Stay Night. Where is my casual clothes Caster!

1.) Ultimate Berserk adaptation starting from Volume 1
2.) Vinland Saga Series
3.) Finish Gash Bell
4.) GANTZ series, but i dont know how much they would censor it, perhaps they would be permitted to show everything in an OVA series?
5.) Re-animate E21 without all the fillers

They have been on this ant thing for so long I'm not positive but isn't it the arc following greed island and its still not finished anyway so they actually have nothing to animate.

I can't believe I didn't say Air gear that is definitely one I want a lot more of anime wise.

One? Well, High School of the Dead is about on the same level as AIKI and TenTen, but the character design of certain characters definitely falls into the Queen's Blade/hentai realm.

Of course, Nana to Kaoru is the one I meant. The author was more well known for being a hentai artist before he started more "mainstream" titles after all. That is not to say that I wouldn't wholeheartedly agree with Marik, though I'd be more curious who would be playing Nana. If they got away with Queen's Blade, they can (and should) get this on the air.

There is more story in 5 chapters than in all of Queen's Blade.
