The characters become Americans and while that can work well at times. It just seems 'weird' and 'foreign' to fans.
The Guyver live action movie had this (Although, despite that it wasn't adapted too poorly)
Now if a Japanese company or perhaps HK company adapted an anime to live action:
The characters stay Asian.
The Iria live action movie I believe was made by a Japanese company so it managed to retain a lot of it's 'Asian qualities.'
I'm not trying to be racist or anything. I'm just saying there's just some sort of little bits of cultural differences between a movie done mostly by Americans and those done mostly by Asians. Although nowadays as they collaborate on more and more movies the cultural division line is thankfully starting to blur a bit.
