List of previous predictions: (https://myanimelist.net/blog.php?eid=899138)

A continuation of my previous stack, "Anime Based on Significantly Older Manga", exclusively including remakes. The manga must have been at least 15 years old when the anime released. Organized in ascending order by length of time between manga and remake.

List is incomplete. If I am missing any big ones, let me know. Thanks to everyone who has helped me add to this list.

Second remake version: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/58981

Eden's Zero won't be returning to Netflix as it seems the sequel's rights went over to Crunchyroll, I'll update the list if the next Hathaway Flash Gundam films are slated to release on Netflix. We now know the film cast for the Scott Pilgrim film will return to its anime adaptation by Science SARU, so far, we don't know if it'll even be added to the MAL database like other IPs supposed "anime" adaptations, in quotation marks because Netflix can call it anime all it wants but some don't count.

Chi.: Chikyuu no Undou ni Tsuite has been releasing only in Netflix for the time being but isn't marked as an exclusive for the platform.

One piece: 5-fun de Wakaru - Kore made no Wano kuni-hen / afer 929

One Piece is a Japanese media franchise created by Eiichirō Oda in 1997. The initial manga, written and illustrated by Eiichirō Oda, has been serialized in Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump magazine since July 22, 1997, and has been collected into 108 tankōbon volumes. By December 2023, the manga has sold over 523.2 million copies worldwide, making it the best-selling manga series in history.

The manga has been adapted into an anime series produced by Toei Animation, which began broadcasting in Japan in 1999. Additionally, Toei has developed 15 animated feature films, original video animations, and 13 television specials.

There are certain upcoming shows that have a virtually 0% chance of being anything less than amazing.

There are a lot of arguments about the the "Big 3" and these are the animes that I think is the big 3.

An addendum of titles I'm interested in that are missing from other stacks. Mostly 2020s & upcoming.


Very loose definition including old franchises with frequent projects, sequels with 5+ year gap, adaptations of older Western media, new projects, etc (basically anything a fan who hasn't seen a project in ages could be excited for lol)
