Not a mention of Koi+Hime Musou, the eroge that turns most of the major Sangoku characters into lolis?

As for Alice, as far as I can tell the Alice character or rather the concept of her seems to represent to Japanese writers a symbol of the utmost purity and innocence in a world of corruption or rather the untaintable. In other words the ideal heroine or the pinnacle of the Yamato Nadeshiko (note this is pure speculation based on how I've seen writers appear to regard and portray the character). Such is the appeal of the concept of Alice that an eroge gaming company has taken her moniker and image as it's own, to great effect. I'm talking of course of Alicesoft.

Perdido Street Station would make for an excellent adaptation. I can see it all already… right down to the moe-fied bug girls.

I wonder how anime would handle, say, the stories of Sherlock Holmes as depicted by cute lolis.

Don't give them any ideas!!!!

That said, I'd watch one episode just for a laugh.

So would Elementary, My Dear Watson-tan retain the deerstalker hat, the pipe and the cocaine and morphine use ('Quick, Watson-tan, the needle!')? We must know.

And Lewis Carroll is frequently accused of being a lolicon.
