Wondering/thinking about what will or could be cut from the upcoming movies makes me think about that term "faithful to the manga" a.k.a. original source material. Crystal so far is a good example that using the manga as a storyboard, adapting the manga 1:1 mostly doesn't work. I guess we all agree. The question is, to what degree can the screenwriter change the story to still be faithful to the original source material and what is necessary to add to make the both movies work, also as a standalone movie experience for each film. The LOTR-movies for example were one big story split into 3, but each one of them works for itself. What additions would you tolerate? Which ones not? They might change more then we think/assume, since especially the first part of the arc is very episodic.
Also: would you approve design changes? We saw the inners in their fuku, but who knows, we might end up with Jupiter having her flower belt and Mars that gem. Which is not canon, nor to the manga neither to Crystal. Would that bother you or would you be happy about a som fresh new ideas?
