What does it mean when we start getting U.S. anime news from Japanese anime news sites? Anime!Anime! reports that TOKYOPOP announced a live-action adaptation of Ikki Tousen at TIFFCOM, the Tokyo International Film Festival.

Ikki Tousen, of course, is Yuji Shioaki's adaptation of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms in which warriors from the Three Kingdoms era are reincarnated as buxom female high school students in Japan. Live-action fanservice? You bet your booty.

Moon Phase reports that Shinobu Takayama's manga Amatsuki is being developed into an anime. The series is about a high schooler named Tokidoki who is so bad at history that he's forced to work at a history museum to improve his grades. But one day, as he's playing the high-tech museum's Edo era simulator, he loses an eye to a monster-- and can't find his way back out of the game. Studio Deen is set to animate; no date has been set.

And while we're on the topic of new anime, fans of TOKYOPOP's manga Dazzle-- a.k.a. Hatenkou Yugi --might like to know that an official website for the anime has been pre-opened. Just a splash image for now, but it's the first glance of how Minari Endo's art will be translated into animation.

The December issue (on sale October 27) of Ichijinsha's Monthly Comic Zero-Sum magazine will announce that Studio DEEN is animating Amatsuki, Shinobu Takayama's fantasy manga about two high school boys trapped in a fully immersive, virtual recreation of 19th-century Japan. According to a Moon Phase blog entry, Kazuhiro Furuhashi (Rurouni Kenshin, Le Chevalier D'Eon, Getbackers) will direct the project, as well as co-write the scripts with Chieko Suzuki. Shinobu Tagashira (Shonen Onmyouji, Hunter X Hunter) will design the characters. Five manga volumes have been published so far.

Norie Yamada and Kumichi Yoshizuki's Someday's Dreamers (Mahō Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto) magical slice-of-life manga is being adapted into a live-action film for release in Japan in Summer of 2008. The movie will star 15-year-old model and actress Rio Yamashita (Tokyo Girl drama) as a budding mage learning to use her powers in Tokyo. Director Shun Nakahara (Tomie: Forbidden Fruit) has been shooting the film from September 29 until the end of October. Tokyopop released the original manga in English in 2006, and Geneon Entertainment (USA) Inc. released the animated version in English in 2003. Thanks, dormcat. Source: Ultimatum
