[Fake by Sanami Matoh]

[erinptah]

I would watch the hell out of that.

Transcript

Image: Fake by Sanami Matoh (the cast wearing dark uniforms, kind of police/military-type?)

Text: I really want someone to make this manga a live action show. Matoh already affectionately rips off Starsky & Hutch in it, man. A TV adaptation is in the stars!

[ill_omened]

There's a BL series about the NYPD?

[(Anonymous)]

It takes some, uh, liberties with police procedure, but it's cute and a lot of fun (also brutal in some depictions of murders and sickos, so that's a bonus). First BL manga I ever read, ah, memories.

[iceyred]

It's a great little manga. Great female characters, and the main relationship is surprisingly equitable.

Fake's version of NYC is pretty hilarious tho.

[otakugal15]

Oh Japan. But it was surprisingly fun regardless.

[iceyred]

I want a full length anime series adaptation. A live action would just get lost among the CSI and CIS and SVU stuff already on tv.

[(Anonymous)]

I would also prefer an anime series to a live action one, but I don't think a live action one would necessarily get lost since among the other stuff because it would stand out a little bit due to having its two male leads in a romantic relationship (I'm sure there might be a couple of other cop/procedural shows with at least gay side characters if not lead characters, but it would still make FAKE a bit different from the average cop show)

[otakugal15]

Not just that, there's a lot of silliness involved in it and the kids have a big part in the series, which would also make it stand out compared to the other cop shows. But mostly the silliness in-between all the serious.

[type_wild]

Nah.

From Eroice With Love, though.

[(Anonymous)]

Why not both? Both is good.

[elaminator]

I have never read this. (I want to, though! Apparently it's a classic?)

Anyway, I would definitely give a live action version a try.

[darkmanifest]

Very classic - if I remember correctly, it was one of the earliest vanguard boys' love manga published in the West. English version suffers from a bit the wonky translation typical from those days, but still a great series.

[elaminator]

I've read terrible fan-translations, so that doesn't bother me much. Gay cops sound interesting. If it isn't too long I'll probably get around to it. The art is kind of nice, too. (That jawline is pretty severe, but all the same...I like it.)

[otakugal15]

It's 7 vols, so pretty short compared to a lot of series. The art was interesting, to say the least. I remember being put off by it way back when, but I finally pushed past it and I ended up liking it a lot and the art grew on me.

[elaminator]

Ooo, seven volumes isn't that long! I know it's available online too, so I might do that this weekend. Thanks!

I've read comics and manga with pretty bad art, but good writing can make it worthwhile. (I've seen SO much worse than this though...it isn't that bad.)

[(Anonymous)]

why is the guy in the back drooling?

[mekkio]

But being a manga, would it be set in Japan because it would most likely be done by a Japan studio or would it stay true to the storyline and be set in NYC and be done by an American studio?

[(Anonymous)]

It would be set in NYC but filmed in Japan and the American characters would be played by Japanese actors, just like the Thermae Romae film did. It can't be worse than Japanese actors playing Romans.

[(Anonymous)]

is bikky dressed like a cop?

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah. He's so adorable dressed like his cop dads back there.

[otakugal15]

Man, I haven't seen a FAKE secret in YEARS nor have I read it in a long time.

I remember there being some slightly questionable, er, things regarding the two of them, especially with how Dee handles things with Ryo, but over all, I liked the cases and I liked how the relationship developed and eventually culminated. And it had some rather hot scenes at the end, though they were tame compared to some yaoi manga.
