I saw the previews for the Iron Man and Wolverine animes Marvel is producing in conjunction with MadHouse and Sony Pictures Entertainment.
The Iron Man series felt pretty right, but the Wolverine series felt completely wrong to me, and I'm a lover of animes.

Judging from the preview shown on ComicVine the series seems to lean heavily toward the mystical side of Japan. The art style reminds me of the series Trinity Blood, story of a powerful vampire like being turned priest for the Catholic Church.
When we imagine Wolverine we think of a small, built bad ass who will kick your ass six ways from the Meiji Era. The version they are using for the anime is a tall, lanky pretty boy type. Quite fitting toward the Trinity Blood audience of young women who adore angst ridden heroes that can never seem to find love. Doesn't feel right for Wolverine.

In my personal opinion I think they would of been far better to emulate such tough anime series as Samurai Champloo or Cowboy Bebop. As an example please check out the following youtube clips where they show some great fight scenes in the series.

When I think Wolverine. I think dirty and gritty. The series idea they are going with feels far too pretty.

That wasn't Wolverine... couldn't be... what were they thinking? 

It is a right directioin if you want to try to get people from Japan to learn about Marvel characters

Yea the character design is horrible. it looks....horrible.

btw is the guy in Iron Man trailer (the pirate looking guy) is he from the Iron Man comics? or made up for the anime

I think if Marvel's going to start doing crazy Anime projects they should consider bringing in some other characters. What about Iron Fist, Daredevil, or Spiderwoman (as examples). They have other characters out there that would be far better Anime style.

Maybe they are trying something new

I'm gonna have to see how the story progresses...that is once I know where the animes are going to appear.

I think a good Wolverine anime should just be his time in Japan.
Unless that is what this is supposed to be.

"@War Killer: How do you get them interested in American comics when you don't even depict the characters properly? I showed examples of hugely popular animes that are better depictions of series like Wolverine."

I would have preferred that they used the regular design for Wolverine....whoever that is in the trailer doesn't feel like Wolverine to me

I think it looks good, but the closest thing it is to the real Wolvie is the claws. Then again, I like how their portraying him in a different way then the usual Wolverine.

I myself would like a Ghost Rider anime, though.

Looks more like Daken, good idea though I would haveliked it more if they used diffrent characters like Ghost Rider or somthing, he would be Awesome in anime

This is how I imagine the Japanese Marvel execs sold it to the studios.
 
"Wolverine-son has 3 sharp claws and each hand. Very Nice! and Supa Big Hair! Very nice. He fight demon dog, but look out! Demon dog become spirit smoke and turn into Supa Big Samurai Monsta! Look out! How can Logan-son beat such BEEEG Monsta? Hu-hu-ha! Don't worry. Logan-son has trick up sleeve. Supa sharp claws! He slice through Samurai spirit Monsta! In Half! Oooooh! Very Good!"
