I would prefer an anime, but it's something!

I'm glad that Yamada etc got recognized but I really would have perfected a anime to a Live Action seeing as I'll probably not watch the Live-action show.

2D is best kept 2D is what I believe.

I guess they thought all the kissing would make a live-action more popular. The body-switching is going to be tougher in the live-action than it would have been in an anime. So I hope that they find actors & actresses capable of pulling the body-switching off.

 

It's odd that both of Yoshikawa's popular series went the live-action route instead of anime. There's probably some reason behind it, though I certainly can't see it.

I can't wait. I just hope that someone subs and hosts it so that I can watch it.

Was hoping this one would get a anime, as it was more suited for an anime than megame. But it's something maybe it can still get an anime later on. So what is Japan Like when it comes to showing men kissing men, and girls kissing girls etc?

I haven't seen a lot of Jdrama so I really can't speak in general, but I think they often don't show actual kissing in boy x girl cases, especially if the characters aren't adults.  For instance they might show one of them from the back, or a silly cartoon heart might pop up over their mouths - anything to prevent us from actually seeing their lips lock.  So they might do something similar in these cases.

The live actions is crazy!!

the dudes really kiss each other. that give me a real surprise.

They also alter the story quite a little, but nothing major (as far as episode 2 goes).
