Honey and Clover TWO? And a Live Action? Sounds Interesting. I think I'll get a hold of them when they appear.

It's highly likely that Honey and Clover will be released in the U.S. It's fairly popular in Japan

The live action is most likely never going to be released in the US however. Most foreign live-action movies don't anyway

Quite a few have lately. Well, the more popular ones anyways (usually horrors like Ringu, Ju-On, Dark Water, and even others not so famous like Audition etc.) And well, even the Lupin 3 live action movie has made it's way over here (can't remember the releaser, but yeah).

AHHHH!!! YOU HAVE MADE MY DAY, MY WEEK, MY YEAR WITH THIS NEWS! I am so excited about serason two of Honey and Clover. I've been a fan for forever, and I was hoping we'd get some more closure. *hugs WingZero, causing him to gasp for air and turn a lovely shade of blue.*

I'm not thrilled by the prospect of a live action movie, since I simply can't see most of Hachikuro's humor being transferred to real life, but I'll give it a try.

You think so? My speculation, and the speculation of those that I've read, is that it will be quite some time before Hachikuro is licensed. If it ever is. The show is simply not what the majority of people want or expect from anime(Low fanservice, very slice of life). It might be liicensed one day, but if it never is, I won't be surprised.
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.

Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.

But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

Here's the synopsis of the show that I wrote for my review:

synopsis wrote:Honey and Clover centers around the lives of four college art students: Yamada, Mayama, Morita, and Takemoto. Their lives change drastically the day that their young professor, Shuuji, introduces them to his 19 year old neice, Hagu, who is coming to attend the art college of which they are all students. Tiny, innocent Hagu, whose talent is anything but small, instantly attracts the attention of Morita and Takemoto. As they move from year to year, each of the five students striving towards his own goals of success, their relationships become more strained and complicated, but will their bonds of friendship and love be strained until they reach their breaking point?


It's my favorite show of all time. You can read the entire review I wrote here: https://www.christiananime.net/reviews.php?display=192
