[Sotiris]

Classic Disney characters have been re-imagined into bishies (=cute boys) for the official Japanese video game Twisted Wonderland.

This is an intriguing premise. I've played a few Japanese app games like this before but I usually lose interest quickly. The Disney theme (sounds like a University with male students sorted into dormitories based on each villain) might keep my interest. I like the villain roster of The Queen, Maleficent, Ursula, Jafar, Cruella De Vil, and The Queen of Hearts though. Looks like there's just one other villain left to be unveiled. The Headmaster certainly has an intriguing design though.

[Disney's Divinity]

There were some anime genderbent pictures of various Disney characters I saw a while back. I can't quite remember the artist's name--sakmichan?--or if they were posted about here. I remember that artist's Ursula looked like an even hotter Adam Lambert. Regardless, the Cruella here looks almost exactly the same as theirs did. The Maleficent one is similar, too.

Flotsam and Jetsam are cute. Is "Dire Crowley" taking off from the Beast? EDIT: I just realized he must be Diablo.

[Sotiris]

The promotional animation for the game is really cool. I hope it gets adapted into an anime series.

Why would Disney sign on for this

Seems a bit too sexual for there overall brand ?

[Disney Duster]

You're right Sotiris, the animation is very cool, and in most scenes so very good. An anime would be so awesome!

[Disney's Divinity]

For some reason, I thought this was an anime. I guess I didn't read closely here. Hopefully they would make an anime version eventually though, and it ends up getting a dub. I can imagine an anime with a fairytale inspiration like this overlayed over a crew of attractive male characters doing well, actually. I've seen so many Wonderland-inspired anime.

[unprincess]

this just goes to show you how different the Japanese market is to the American one. Here's a Disney product that glorifies attractive male villains aimed directly at a female audience, while in the states they wont even dare make Hans a part of the Frozen merch line for fear of SJW parent outrage.

I kinda like what they did with Hades, kinda giving me hikkomori-ish vibes, hehe. He's cute.

Is one of the Lion King sidekicks a wolf? cuz there's no wolves in Africa, just saying.

[Disney Duster]

Why are there two Grimhilde(Snow White's Evil Queen)-inspired lands/groups/whatever?!

Which of them do you mean? I think all three are supposed to be lions. Two regular lions, and a White lion.

The third guy could also be a hyena.

[unprincess]

^nope I checked on YouTube, he's a wolf(and his name is Jack Howl) and yes Ruggie is a hyena. I thought maybe they're including any animal in general and not specifically African ones, but its called Savanaclaw, that's pretty specifically implying the film's African setting. Somebody didn't do their zoology homework.

Why are there two Grimhilde(Snow White's Evil Queen)-inspired lands/groups/whatever?!

I was confused about that too, I think the "house" with the raven symbol is for the teachers like Gaston-bish, Cruella-bish etc...

[Disney Duster]

Oh, ok thanks for your guesswork unprincess, maybe that's it.

[blackcauldron85]

I'm browsing the Disney Store Japan website, and they have t-shirts (maybe other merch, too?) of the characters in this game (just scroll down; Google is translating it for me into English):

The game is getting a manga series and a novelization. Hopefully, it won't be too long until we get an anime.
