@RobertBobert but the old anime is based on the first book of anne of green gables so wont the first book is the primary source?

@RobertBobert Considering that The Origin, the manga remake of 0079, didn't do any significant changes to the mecha, no I think it wouldn't. They clearly would rather appeal to nostalgia by using the same classic designs than try experimenting again, Turn A underperformed in part because of its weird designs, so again they'd just sell the kits forever.

@RippleLover Do you think that creating a remake of 0079 will require a significant redrawing of mechas and, accordingly, kits?

Then what about an anniversary remake of Gundam 0079 or a new reboot of something from Go Nagai?
Sunrise has said for decades they won't remake 0079 because they ''see no need'' (by which they actually mean they can still sell the model kits like hot cakes despite the show having no new material), and we literally got a Go Nagai remake earlier this year with Grendizer U.

@Elior21 In this case, a specific old anime that is considered a cult show in Japan. How is it possible? Well, if you look at Anne's design in the illustration, you'll see that it's a more modern version of the character design from that old show.

@RobertBobert what the primary source of this? is it the manga or the books that came long ago? also anouther question how is it possible to know if anime is a reboot or if it remake of the old version?

I'm genuinely surprised; I know the 70s anime is considered to be a masterpiece. Hopefully the new one can live up to it.

@Elior21 In this case, the primary source. This is not a reboot, this is a remake of an old anime.

@RobertBobert what exactly the diffrence between remake and new adaption? after all the news saying new adaption
Nov 21, 2:38 PM by Elior21
@Elior21 Well, this is still a remake of the original anime, and not a completely new adaptation. Although anything is better than the latest Western adaptation. Also, you don’t need to write me a PM, I receive a notification about all replies to my posts.

This isn't an anime that I'd like to see getting remade, I'm quite satisfied with the 79 adaptation and watched it many times before. The visuals, pacing, integrity, choices of seiyuu etc. all of them were perfect for me and I doubt that there's any aspects that needs to be improved upon.

Why yes, Anne really needed a THIRD adaptation.

i don't think i want this.
i feel that the 79 anne is simply one of the most beautiful animations i've seen. and its certainly my favorite work from isao takahata. it sounds impossible to recreate.
but maybe i'm jumping to conclusions; is it possible that this won't simply be a retelling of anne of green gables, but that it will also extend into later anne works? if this new version can present something different than anne 79, maybe i'll like it.
some of these remakes of true classics have been quite disappointing. the new urusei yatsura is okay, but it pales in comparison to the 81 uruyatsu imo

@RobertBobert i actully not suprised it got new anime. after all It was one of the first western novels released in Japan post-WW2. it so popular that NHK made a drama about the life of the woman who translated it. also in 2011 there was a novel as well

@Kikugi you should watch the Daddy Long Legs anime too.

This is cool. I really like Sangatsu no Lion's art style, and the sample pages in that link look wonderful.
Maybe the books aren't exactly forgotten in Japan.

@perseii
I would imagine quite a few do. A new Japanese translation of Anne of Green Gables came out in 2011, with illustrations by the great Umino-sensei (Sangatsu no Lion, Hachimitsu to Clover)
Anne of Avonlea and Anne of the Island came out subsequently in 2012 and 2013, so there were enough sales to finish the trilogy (there are more books of course but by then Anne is already well into adulthood).

As a big fan of Montgomery, I have to wonder why do Japanese always love little kids? 🤔
Like where tf is my Dorian Gray adaptation man.
