What happened to samurai anime? Why don't they adapt more

The gun is mightier than the sword

Japanese people aren't interested in the history of Japan. Just like you aren't interested in your shithole's history.

Bullshit, people eat up Civil War history like no tomorrow. That and the never ending movies about world wars.

What you're saying makes no sense.

They've already adapted like every samurai themed manga

>>140586679
Adaptation of Vagabond when?

>>140586823
Whenever the manga gets off having a hiatus every 6 months and finishes maybe

I know we're talking about samurai anime in general, but wow, this OVA was disappointing.

>>140586952
What didn't you like about it anon? I thought it was wonderful.

Kill yourself

It's got 30 something volumes already, if it doesn't have an adaption by now it's got nothing to do with the releases schedule.

Didn't they recently announce a remake of Peacemaker Kurogane recently?

I watched it with no knowledge of Rurouni Kenshin.

I didn't necessarily have anything I strongly disliked about it. It was, overall, pretty solid for me. It just wasn't up to the expectations I had for it, but I suppose that's my fault.

Also, nitpick, but I didn't like some of the direction, particularly the fight scenes and the live action shots.

>>140585985
The SI crowd happened, that's what. Instead of building up a character and their cast, each with their distinct personalities, flaws and quirks, they went full self-insert, shounen power-up and harem-antics.

Thinking about that, samurai anime has always been very uncommon.

Samurai Flamenco was the last good samurai anime

>>140587296
So why don't they go after the older style? How well did the last anime that did that sell? And why does self insert stuff sell so much?

>>140587041

Oh shit manga was pretty cool but the updates on the worst level.

>>140587296

That's bullshit.

It's because ever since the increase in westerners watching anime, it would teach what history of Japan was like. If more westerners start to research Japan's history, people will start to bring up Japanese war crimes like Nanking. So, as always, Japan decided to stop historical anime to help reinforce their argument in denial of its war crimes.

But it's all fiction, why can't you write the story of fictional traveler samurai?

Uneducated pleb detected, I bet you don't care about your country as well.

>it would teach what history of Japan was like. If more westerners start to research Japan's history
those are two enormous and unsupportable logical leaps.

>>140588166
Something more simple.

Fanservice and self insert harem sells more, so let's not have something interesting and has a story.

>>140586476
Not everyone is from some third world shithole though.
