After a celebrated run at international film festivals, the anime movie adaptation of Hiroshi Sakurazaka’s All You Need is Kill is now available to buy digitally – and hopefully should land on streaming platforms soon.
So how does this re-imagining of the light novel compare to the Hollywood adaptation – Edge of Tomorrow – and even its own manga adaptation?
Honestly? It doesn’t. But it’s not because it’s bad – it’s a whole new take on the story.
