TOKYOPOP To Produce Live Action Ikkitousen?

At this week’s TIFFCOM film trade show in Tokyo earlier this week TOKYOPOP revealed a proposal for an American produced live action film adaptation of Yuji Shiozaki’s Ikkitousen manga series, published in English by TOKYOPOP under the name “Battle Vixens.” TOKYOPOP’s proposal reportedly involves turning the Chinese history infused contemporary action story into an adolescent comedy set on American college campuses.

TOKYOPOP has previously announced plans to develop live action film versions of Kei Toume’s Hitsuji no Uta (“Lament of the Lamb”) manga and the TOKYOPOP original “Princess Ai” franchise.
