What is you with you and the Harry Potter actors? I like Harry Potter and all but why cast them in live action Anime movies? Besides, americanising Anime for a live action won't work.

They need more action! And one thing's for sure: this DOES feature Japanese actors in a few supporting roles. And what do you think of my casting Mel Gibson as the alcoholic history teacher?

I like a few of your choices, but dislike the idea overall. Plus, it would just be ridiculous if Makoto, Fujisawa, Katsuhiko, and Nanami were played by Brits (+1 Aussie). Then again, if Makoto was played by a Japanese person then it would follow that Fatora and Rune would need to be played by Japanese actors as well.
