the alternating pretentious philosophizing and depraved sexual acts is tailored perfectly for the medium of anime

Heart of Darkness, not some shitty anime that rips it off. Something that's fucking true to the story.

No Longer Human by Osamu Dazai was a pretty good animated version of the book given they had only 2-3 episodes to work with. It's a fucking shame that Kokoro wasn't as good.

don't know if it counts as a "novel," but this shit was my child hood. would make a great adaptation, since each trilogy could be a 2-cour season.

I want to say by Shaft, simply because I think the art style in Monogatari would be perfect for the Catcher in the Rye.

war and peace

Starship Troopers replace the cast with lolis. Bitches love lolis

Why not Loli Prime?

>>118874755
But anon we already had an animated adaption of it.

Because cute girls killing space bugs for the greater good on mankind would sell. Who doesn't love little girls with big guns?

Great taste.

I would like this, picture related.

>>118875068
I'm reading this now. Just finished "the wolves of the calla" and now I need to look for "the song of susannah".

I think it would be pretty good as an anime. Not very popular, but good.

A Clockwork Orange by Studio 4C.

With Bloom and Dedalus as moe and tsundere lolis, respectively.

Might as well warn you now, but the best is over.
Never reaches the level of the first four books again. Book 7 is good has quite a few good parts, given how long it is, but Song of Susannah is the weakest in the series .

>mfw you don't have guilty pleasures.
Also don't judge a book by its cover.

>>118875211
i'd rather see that as a live action miniseries really

Studio 4C needs to adapt amazing nuts.....

Yeah, I figured. My favourite one had to be "the wastelands" but I can tell it's not going to be going anywhere incredible. Might as well finish it anyway.

The whole "blaine the mono" part was totally straight out of an anime, only the finale was a dead baby joke instead of the power of friendship.

The story will be corrupted into treehugging bullshit about not harming nature and you know it.
Maybe add in themes about abandoning such silly childish dreams and joining the workforce instead. After all, its the fun memories that count.

catch 22 it would be perfect

Not like the movie, from Chief Broom's POV. I want to see how they'd do the hallucinations.
