| That's... that's a shame. |
 |
| Another live-action? Guess it must be doing better on that front than the anime front in sales... |
| It will probably end not well but props for trying. Hopefully Im wrong. |
einonymous said: Another live-action? Guess it must be doing better on that front than the anime front in sales... The final volume (vol. 17) will come out sometime this month. The manga already ended a couple of months back. They announced it just before the final volume's release to boost the sales. Although it has been doing pretty good on it's own along with Sensei's few other manga that ran during its run. She is one of the few mangaka out there who have multiple manga serialized at the same time. |

| You know it wont be well if its gonna be live-action, well chances are it wont but thats just me. Most fail |
 |
| The success of this TV show is all going to depend on the person that is cast for Kuranosuke... |
 |
| I’m so happy!! 😭 Princess Jellyfish is my favorite anime/manga ever. I wonder who’s going to play Kuranosuke though? |
| I just hope Kuranosuke is feminine enough. |

| Good news. Looking forward to this one & hoping for a fitting Kuranosuke. |
 |
| @KannoSugako I don't know if I should be happy about this or not. Hehe. |

| uh okay then more importantly, when will the manga scans finally continue? :/ |
  |
| I'm guessing the live action Tokyo Tarareba Musume did well, then... lol |
| I'd prefer a full anime adaptation but it's fine anyway, I guess. Might be the first asian TV drama I'll watch, if it ends up being available online. |
 |
| i'm a lil scared of how kuranosuke will be represented, however we get to see some really nice dresses in live action either way so that's exciting! |
| It's one of those few series that I believe could work like this. Hope it'ls quality. |
 |
| i just finished this lovely wonderful show 2wks ago! so sad it's not a continuation announcement. |
