I’m always leery about an anime to live-action re-boot, but this trailer is very encouraging. The three main actors seem to have great chemistry in their roles.

I think they nailed it, at least according to this optimized teaser.

Damn this is really looking like a fun and faithful adaptation. I’m quite excited for this. I really hope to see Ed pop up before the first season ends.

Yeah, as close as this looks, it wouldn’t be proper without Ed.

Yeah it seems like a clever promo, more focus on that cast dynamic and dialog. Which is going to be very important here.
They’ve mentioned in interviews that there will be Ed, but haven’t announced the casting. Seem to be holding it back and teasing it a bit. Show runner said something along the lines of people will freak out when they finally see Ed.
I can well imagine this being placed in an early episode where they’re arguing over a bounty but everyone has different memories. The editing of just this should win all the editing awards going forward, just a mind boggling achievement.

Oh God
Love action bleach was terrible.
The stilted motion of the fighting sequences doesn’t bode well. It looks just as bad as bleach.

John Cho is looking pretty badass. Weed did him good.

It looks good; but IMHO; Spike’s fight scenes have to be very choreographed + stylized, while looking natural, and cannot cheap out on Matrix-style CGI motion effects. That was one of the best parts of the action in the original series, and it would leave the live action version lacking
