With Netflix's John Cho-led "Cowboy Bebop" live action series drop right around the corner, this highly-anticipated event got me thinking about different anime adaptations and why certain adaptations satisfy fans more than others. Adaptation is a tricky tightrope to walk. Similar to translating across languages, striking the balance between direct transfer and capturing the spirit of the property is incredibly important. However, after reflecting on my personal favorite anime adaptations, I came up with a list of best practices.

Actor Haruma Miura, who played the lead role as Eren in the liveaction adaptation "Attack on Titan," was found dead at his home in Tokyo, Japan.

Beast Titan is expected to join “Attack on Titan” Season 2. "Attack on Titan" Season 2 has a lot in store for the fans when it makes its comeback.

To further elevate the anticipation for the new season, Kodansha has now dropped two new promotional videos for the anime.
