The live-action film adaptation of “Sono Bisque Doll wa Koi wo Suru (My Dress-Up Darling)” once again became the target of harsh criticism. This time it's because of the cosplay of Shizuku Kuroe, one of the most beloved characters in the series.
Since the first episode of Sono Bisque Doll live-action aired, fans have expressed their displeasure with the casting choice.
Especially actor Riko Nagase, who plays the female lead Marin Kitagawa. Many fans believe that Nagase does not meet expectations, the actress is not attractive enough and seems too old, especially she does not have the physical features of the character. This has created widespread opposition among anime's most ardent fans.
On many forums and social networks, critical comments about the Shizuku Kuroe cosplay recently shown in the live-action Sono Bisque Doll have gone viral.
In which fans complained about Nagase's appearance and the overall quality of the work. Users have pointed out that the live-action fails to capture the visual essence of the anime, something many consider necessary in this genre adaptation.
An audience commented: “I guess the character is only idealized in the 2D version. In reality it should be something realistic like this. But I'm still disappointed. Maybe the cosplayers who look cute in the photos are the same like that in real life.”
Of course, there are still people defending the movie: “You become more critical when you spend too much time on social networks. Many people just watch to complain without even trying to enjoy the movie.”
Despite the complaints, since the film's release, the number of criticisms has only increased and shows no signs of abating. Some users even mentioned that the production seemed stuck in a destructive cycle of criticism, where any detail could cause complaints.
The controversy over the casting and visual fidelity of the original characters raises a common question in live-action adaptations of popular anime: Is it possible to recreate the visuals? anime fantasy in realistic format? In the case of “Sono Bisque Doll wa Koi wo Suru”, it seems that the debate between those who like the animated version and those who strive to defend the live-action version will not stop.
