Kiyo in Kyoto: From the Maiko House - Vol. 24 Ch. 261 - An Important Someone

[Liar]

You should look up about what happened with the creator of Sexy Tanaka-san. Japanese live-actions are notoriously infamous for ignoring the wishes of the creators (which the publishers are mostly the ones to blame). And this includes erasing LGBT aspect from works, sometimes even adding offensive jokes that weren't there.

And going back to the Maiko live-action, yeah, ironically they ignored Kenta but inserted a lot of male characters that didn't exist in the original.

Here are the examples from the top of my head: 1) The Mother is divorced and has a child, child grows up edgy because fatherless 2) Momoko got dumped by a boyfriend because she didn't want to give up on being a geiko 3) Instead of Suu-chan having problems with her mother due to her decision to be a maiko, it's Suu-chan's father that is given the focus (and they make him a weepy mess to make viewers sympathize with him) 4) Glasses nee-san was made to be the maiko that would give up on following the geiko path but at the very last minute she fell in love with a guy that delivered things to the manor so she stayed.

The only thing that is an understandable change is #3 because of the use of the "fantasy-forbidding father" trope, but everything else there sounds like a terrible change that seems unnecessary.

That’s at the level of a really bad fanfic. Damn.

What a heartwarming chapter.

Thank for your translation!

Everything here is bad already... but they did Glasses-nee-san DIRTY.

Just did a quick search of Sexy Tanaka-san, couldn't read much, not emotionally strong now to read too much on that.

For most authors hearing that their story is getting a live-action must be like hearing your child is going to a russian roulette firing squad, they might hit or might miss... and what is better of the two options is a whole nightmare in itself.

And here I thought American movie adaptations were bad.

Thanks for this, now I won't waste time watching it

wow, this is almost as bad as Chinese live actions changing BL/GL stories into BG.
