That should have stayed a manga only!

I actually wish that they would have made PSoH a series, instead of the funky chopped-up OVA thing that they did. The nature of the stories (mostly self-contained tales) would translate well as a show -- however, the animation was sub-par, the music was LAME, and it just overall didn't get the treatment it deserved.

Now, I like Vampire Hunter D and all, but I really think it should have been made into a manga first (only now is it being adapted into a manga series), then maybe a series. The movies are okay (VHD:Bloodlust was actually an improvement on the original novel, in my opinion), but I think with as many books as there are, it should have been something that allows more of it to be made following the novels.

How ya doing, buddy?
