If you were cast for a live action movie based on a manga, what manga would you want it to be and what character would you want to portray? I know its already been done, but I'd like to play Kiriyama in a film version of the manga Battle Royale.

c'mon, I think I'd make an awesome Kiriyama. Just slick my hair back, die it black, and put a blank expression on my face.

I can't think of a single manga character that I could see myself playing, regardless of any acting ability.

A pic of me? here. I also think I'd make a good Kei Kurono if they ever made a Gantz movie. And here are pics of Kiriyama from the film and manga: http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/8008/untitled3fe7.jpg

I would love to play The miko (Takiko) in Fushigi Yuugi Genbu Kaiden. She's really cute and she gets Uruki, which is just awesome!
Second choice (just as good) would be playing Beni from Shinobi Life. She's a total badass. Love her.

Kyoko from Skip Beat! Demons, hatred, and strangely obsessive interests. 'Nuff said. But focus on the demons, they're cool.

Plue from Fairy Tail <3
I guess I'd fit pretty well as Sunako from Perfect Girl Evolution . I don't even have to act, I'm already a lot like her
Spoiler (highlight to view)
For those who didn't read FT or for those with their sarcasm-meter broken, I don't want to play a mini-stuffed animal that looks like a carrot.

The middle pic of Kiriyama look like you sort of (other than the skin color, but that can be fixed). I just don't know why you would want to play the role of such a psychotic bastard. He was a badass in the manga, but he is one of the main antagonist that I really hate.
Spoiler (highlight to view)
I was glad to see him die in the end (not glad to see him massacre all those people, especially those women, in the manga).
I'm not basing this off of appearance or anything, since most manga turned into live-action have actors that look absolutely nothing like the character. I would probably fit the characteristics of people like Shino from Naruto, or Chad from Bleach, but I could also fit a character like Ishida (also Bleach) or possibly even Light from Death Note (I do think poorly of man, but I'm not psychotic enough to kill). However, I don't want to be any of those characters. This is a what if question right? So there is no right or wrong. There are plenty of characters that I love, Luffy, Edward Elrich, Spike (although that is mainly an anime), and the list goes on.
But I think it would be fun to play a character like Kitano Seiichirou from Angel Densetsu. I just love his character. He is probably the purest soul that you can find, but his face scares off everyone. At the same time, he's freakishly strong, and has a natural fighting ability. To make it even better, he is completely ignorant to everything that's going on around him. That's definitely a character I would enjoy playing. Runner up would be Luffy. I love his combination of idiocy and hardcore determination.
