“the tendency in hollywood is for productions to be much like the proverbial bull in the china shop in terms of mentality toward the source material, a bit insensitive to the culture of manga and anime, ” notes michael arias, a tokyo - based filmmaker and the first american director of a japanese anime with his adaptation of the tekkonkinkreet manga. that film won him the japanese academy award for best anime feature in 2008. arias says he now frequently fields calls from u. s. producers looking for properties and that there’s “a sense of a gold rush in the air. ”

another recurring problem over the years has been a lack of agent / management representation for manga authors who own the copyright to their works, with publishing houses assuming the de facto role. this is a void that cork, a tokyo - based management company representing around 20 manga creators and novelists, has tried to fill .
though much will depend on the success or failure of ghost, the deep well of stories within japanese manga gradually is becoming better known and easier to access in the u. s. the multibillion - dollar japanese manga industry already has a lucrative revenue stream in licensing its content for domestic tv dramas and big - screen adaptations, both live - action and animated. so it’s little surprise that publishing houses and manga artists haven’t always felt it necessary to bend over backward to option their properties to hollywood .
the “whitewashing” furor over the casting of scarlett johansson as kusanagi in the upcoming dreamworks / paramount version of the cult manga ghost in the shell may not be the last. there are a handful of other manga adaptations in various stages of development at hollywood studios, and offers are landing on the desks of tokyo publishing houses for many more .

the fable by katsuhisa minami a slow - burner of a story about a highly skilled gangland assassin, whose abilities to kill any target have made him legendary in the underworld, and his partner, set in the kansai region (the area around osaka). the life of “the fable” undergoes a transformation when he receives an unexpected order from the boss. japanese fans compare this stylishly violent manga to golgo 13, the country’s longest - running manga series, which has been previously optioned in hollywood but didn’t come to fruition .
the perception gap between hollywood and the manga industry, undoubtedly exacerbated by american - japanese cultural differences, coupled with the traditionally lengthy process to greenlight any movie project, has meant a slow path to adaptations. ghost in the shell took 10 years from the start of negotiations to production .
those familiar with the full range of storytelling and genres in manga point out that the surface has barely been scratched in terms of what could be adapted. “for every death note, there are 50 death note - quality things in japan that nobody outside has ever heard of, ” says terada .
the manga centers around momoko, a novice sick day care provider. she takes care of children too sick for their parents to leave in a normal nursery, but nevertheless have to go to work. although she is an unsociable woman famous for never laughing, momoko always prioritizes the smiles of the children .
“there is more interest from hollywood, ” says sam yoshiba, executive director of international business at kodansha, publisher of the original ghost in the shell manga by masamune shirow. “offers have increased and negotiations are ongoing on a number of manga properties, though apart from ghost in the shell, it’s still early days in terms of projects actually moving ahead. ” yoshiba concedes that some of the fault for the slow progress over the years can be attributed to “a lack of knowhow in terms of doing business internationally and even of people who could translate for negotiations” at the publishers, though he says this situation has improved .
