Ouran J-Drama?

I was on dA today, and saw a comment someone made about there being an Ouran J-Drama coming up. I looked into it, and sure enough... it's happening.

I'm... honestly not sure whether to be excited or terrified. Live-action adaptations are usually either hit or miss, in my experience, and I really don't want an Ouran adaptation to be completely horrible (like the fifth Harry Potter movie that spent about 30 of its 138 minutes on flashbacks and Emma Watson "spent the whole time wriggling her eyebrows" as one guy in my theatre class puts it).

Anyway, what do you guys think about this?

My only worry is that Ouran depends a lot on its, well...animeishness. I'm really excited, but I'm a little worried...

I also wonder what the storyline will be. Will it be a remake, or is it a new story?

I read somewhere (I don't remember where, so I'm not sure how reliable this is) that it's going to deviate from the plot of the manga a bit. But I think it's going to be more like the anime in that it's generally the same story, just with a different ending.
But, again, I don't know how reliable that is.

...Also, I don't think the Tamaki is pretty enough.
Then again, could any real person be pretty enough to be Tamaki?

...no one can ever beat the bishonenness that is Tamaki Suoh.

But yeah. Also, he's not blonde. D: It reminds me of the live-action adaption of Higurashi. It confused me so much because they didn't keep the outrageous hair colors and shtuff. But with Tamaki it actually made sense because he's half French and whatnot.

...the twins had better actually be twins. xD Is Hunny going to be played by a six year old? o__o

...I have absolutely no idea how they're going to pull off Hunny.
The twins should definitely actually be twins.

...I really wish they'd found someone who was half-Japanese for Tamaki. They should at least make him wear a blonde wig or something.
