Best Live Action Anime Adaption

Here is a list of the best live action anime adaptations. The adaptations can be from any country and can be a prequel, sequel, spinoff, etc. The only rule for this list is that there must be an adaptation of a Japanese anime based on the same story and characters. I will check, and if it doesn't have an anime adaptation, I will remove it.

Feel free to leave comments on why you voted for a certain show or why you disagree. Please remember to be respectful.
