MAL Library

Information
This is a club dedicated to all literature lovers who love seeing various works adapted into Chinese fingerpaintings. The first goal of this club is to function as an index of sorts on which you would ideally be able to find every anime/manga that was adapted from literature. For that to happen we will need your help. If you know of an anime/manga that isn't listed in our relations feel free to post the name of the work in the thread below so we can add it. The second goal is to have a thriving community of people who enjoy these kinds of works. We will see how that goes :D If nothing else we hope you have fun here and find the anime/manga you have been searching for. ^_^

In my honest opinion, a club specifically dedicated only to Japanese literary adaptations would be best. Because I am not even sure I'd be able to fit all the western adaptations here, much less if you have everything together in one place.

-Mooners- the club explicitly mentions being all about western literature adaptations. So, I would personally vote against it. Hell, I don't even know what Genji Monogatari, which is the most supremely Heian Japanese literary work, is doing in the relation list.

what about the Ramayana?

2020 for the last post?? My, my, the time passes by so fast. I don't even realize it. I accept my new assignment with gratitude. Most of the anime entries I manage to watch without groaning are pretty much literary adaptations, in of itself. I don't think it's too much of a bother to add them to the inventory. I'll start with" Romeo no Aoi Sora" and "Porphy no Nagai Tabi", since I have watched them relatively recently.

thanks, just make sure to add em in the tread next time (the one with the little star symbol). more because of my neat freak tendencies than anything else, tho.

Jack Landon's book adaptations. I haven't watched the second one yet, but the first one is serviceable.

I didn't realize I was sent an invite for this club. It has a righteous purpose, so I will gladly contribute on my scale. Most of the literary adaptations are very obscure and represent very little interest, though.
