Since CGI has failed and I highly doubt we will ever see a live action movie about it. what do you guys think about an anime about Warhammer 40.000?

Blood for the Blood God.

The latest Captain Harlock movie is basically Warhammer 40,000 Rogue Trader.

>>123925555
I'm not sure if GW would bother with making full japanase show in their setting.

But I can see possibility of anime being heavy inspired by WH40K.

Really though, I'd watch it. Has enough lore to be a good one. Especially if it doesn't focus on a cast but instead focuses on a different race/warband/chapter every couple of episodes.

Nice quads.
>>
Why not not made part anime, part western show instead?

That way we could have same VAs what Dawn of War had wtihout it being dub.
>>
>>123926005

The Tau were basically made to try and appeal to the eastern market.
>>
>>123926564
I think they did good job with that. I'm saying it from non anime fan perceptive (I dislike anime at point for when I started liking Tau). They take inspiration and eastern themes but don't overdo this and they don't feel weebo race.
Also they have other appeal, like being least grimdark race, like they are more like genue good guys than other races what is refreshing. They are inversion of cliche where humanity are small race with imaginative thinking and progress while aliens had stagnated empire. They are alliance of various races, and are more pragmatic than others.

Also it's funny how Tau don't have over sized mechs or don't use melee weapons, what would you expect from race inpired by anime.
>>
>>123925555
A anime like your pic, Yes. otherwise, no.

Also, nice quads.

Well when you consider exactly what manga it was that inspired the tau, the absence of melee weapons makes perfect sense.

Either way the Eldar are all things considered the far more typically animu faction than the Tau, and would generally be better subjects for an anime adaption.

It's probably something that will never happen, plus is W40k even popular in nipland?
Maybe it could have happened long ago, like that Starship troopers OVA adaptation, but it will need a lot of effort now. If it somehow happened I would actually like to see production I.G work on it.

This reminds me of when I was looking for F/Z LN and found some obscure butcher LN where he was talking about Warhammer and Fighting fantasy in the postscript.
>>
>>123928530
>W40k even popular in nipland?
40k isn't very popular primarily due to model costs as well as how intense the compeoition is when it comes to sci-fi models.
But from what I have heard WHFRP is one of the most popular tabletop RPG systems in all of nippon.

An anime about Comissar Ciaphas Cain's shenanigans, with lots of fanservice by the mixed regiment would be fun.

Then if we want more grimpderp, Inquisition Wars, and we would have Meh'Lindi as delicious brown.

More dakka dakka? the crusade for the Sabbat worls with Gaun'ts Ghosts(yea yea it really kinda pisses on the fluf).

I think this three series would be the most entertaining for anime adaptation

Doesn't surprise me, the lore of that universe seems to appeal to males in their late teens, early 20's. Mostly neckbeard in nature, maybe a lot of black shirts.

Be imaginative. Okay that it depends on with whom are we working with, but it should be relatively easy to do with IG/SoB/Slaneeshi clustist/Rogue Trader and Tau.

Also, repentias.

/tg/ has created enough 40k fan service to choke a Tarrasque. Macha alone could be the leading lady of an ecchi series.

>>123933873

Thats due to the setting though. With 10.000 worlds to chose from the only way to actually really influence plot is either a new dark crusade, a major chapter like the ones that took the legion names going heretic or being wiped out somehow or by introducing a whole new race or a new hive fleet or something equally major.

To progress the overall plot you have to literally use galaxy shattering events, which is hard to do.
