Proof once again, that it is possible to adapt anime into live action.
It just takes great casting, great costumes and set designs , and a time of writers who understand the show and know how to summarize a story to fit the time constraints of a live-action setting with real, actors that age in real time.
Just as how the Samurai X movies combined certain storylines from a 90episode cartoon into a successful trilogy.... so has this New Avatar series, successfully summarized a whole season 30min cartoon...into 8 live action episodes.
For example SPOILER: I am only going to include 1 spoiler. In the original cartoon, the start of the main conflict is explained in a flashback. However in this series, the start of the conflict is shown in the first episode. I feel this worked much better for the pacing...as it allowed new audiences to immediately understand the story.
This is just one example of a smart change.
I hope they can greenlight this quickly and finish up the rest of the show before the child actors age out of their roles.
We need to see this to the end.
Congratulations to the team !
