Edge of Tomorrow is getting a sequel and boy does it have a dumb title... for now, anyway. It's time to take a look back at the often under appreciated sci fi action flick and it's source material, All You Need is Kill. SPOILER ALERT it's time to ask... What's the Difference?

Despite diverging drastically from the novel, the movie actually got two details more accurate to the book than the manga, Keiji's battleaxe/Machete and the Mimics. In the book, the battleaxe is actually described as being fashioned from a sharpened propeller blade with a handle/grip. Basically it's more or less a machete. Also In the book, the Mimics are described as swirling whirling starfish of death.

Keiji does not have a power "that lets him break down time to see his opponent's movements before he makes them". It's a common skill against real life fighters : when you've fought hundreds of fights, you're so used to how attacks work than you can pretty much predict where a blow is gonna land by seeing the telegraph of the attack.

[@koatam]

yeah. The manga simply plays up his accumulated experience more that the movie does. In the movie, he's a bad ass because he memorized everything. Where as in the manga, things don't actually repeat the exact same way. Because the Mimics are also adjusting to the fact that their power has been stolen. So he actually becomes a great fighter simply because he's been through hundreds of battles and not because he knows what's coming.

Edge of Tomorrow: great movie, shit marketing

[@NamelessPassenger]

Nah! I feel boring with the movie. Still refer all you need is kill more than the movie. First of all, guns wont kill gitai, that is why main characters have to use heavy axe weapons. Second, the effection of time loop was terrible in the movie, when the origin story, the main character have been struggle in the time loop and try his best to keep all his team survive until he was hopless rita will help him raise up. The ending was iconic and the movie make it seem like a joke. That was my favorite manga after all man. Seriously? The movie was a failure in every second with me.

[@YZYGWD]

Toàn Nguyễn they are both great, edge of tomorrow being my all time favorite movie and all you need I kill my favorite novel and manga, I read the book when I was younger and when I heard a manga was coming out I was super excited and afterwards a movie?

[@NamelessPassenger]

jolaz13 maybe but the end was cheap. And unbelievable, if gun can kill gitai as easy as in the movie so why rita have to use melee? If the time loop effect both of them, how could chance blood type can solve them all? If that was easy as it seem, there wont have the iconic ending of manga and ln .... The blue armor of hopeful and sky, with the name "killer cage" fighting alone the battle when the dawn was bright...i met him when everything was just a beginning and i alway remember his last question before i started the loopback: "do you know that...?" . This was the iconic ending ..... Maybe it was a bad end because rita was dead but it was a started of a team loop , trying to gain the control again.

Keiji isn't using any powers to break down time. The tachyon particle put off by the mimics allows them to loop at death and that's it. It's the same for Keiji. Him dodging those punches is merely the fruit of his countless battles he's been in. It'd be like if Conor McGregor (I know that sounds like an obvious fighter to bring up but not even Eddie Alvarez, another trained fighter, could touch him) was fighting against some average joe. The soldier he was up against was no elite and certainly not on the level of a mimic. Plus from that point Keiji doesn't even know why he is looping or that the Mimics can loop.

[@aedican9719]

Yeah, I'd feel that it would be less impactful if it was just some other power he got. It being the fruit of his labour is a lot more cool.

It's a technically good piece of work, nice art from Obata, but ehhh let's just say there's a woman who wears clothing too revealing for a military base, gets the hero beaten up because she went boohoo he didn't look happy eating her food, offered sex and is never seen again after being rejected.

Honestly I think edge of tomorrow did an incredible job of adapting the manga for larger audiences. As someone who read the manga first I originally assumed that the film would totally butcher the story, as we have seen time and time before from Hollywood with movie adaptations of books, manga, etc. after watching the film i was very pleasantly surprised at how well it was adapted for western and larger audiences. The film definitely did a great job of keeping the overall "feel"of the mangas narrative, and in my opinion elevated the overall narrative, the character arcs (granted it made them a little bit more stereotypical) as well as innovating the story in many ways that I felt made the overall story much more emotionally compelling and incredibly entertaining. For example the first time we see tom cruise really start being a complete badass in the movie is such an incredibly great payoff, and a gripping piece of visual storytelling.

The movie was pretty good - but I think the original novel, and the manga, were much better. I don’t think the movie-makers sufficiently respected the audience with the changes that they made- fortunately didn’t completely ruin the story, but did stupidify as well as hollywoodize it. I’d love to see a good anime film or series done of “All You Need Is Kill” that does stay faithful to the novel and manga.

[@raizors1331]

@@Gadget-Walkmen I will say Edge of Tomorrow fit better for the movie and All you need is kill fit better for the novel/manga. They represent a different theme the story tell. Edge of Tomorrow tell a story of a battle to end all battles (Normandy a.k.a Not!D-day, lol, they actually embrace the historical LARPing). At the end all mimics die (maybe? considering the producer want to make another film I doubt it would be that simple), human restore what they lost and together marching to "Tomorrow" (yea, the ending literally is in the morning...) All you need is kill tell a story of a battle, that is simply another one of the mind-numbling cycle of kill, kill, and more kill, bloodied to the point that the protagonist have to cut off everything else just to survive as a human, hence, "All you need is kill". Near the end Kenji actually call himself "a machine made of flesh and powered by blood", describe Rita's past and foreshadow his future. For humanity, it's a new hope, for him (and Rita), it's hell. With that in mind, giving the movie the title "All you need is kill" is just weird. It's not just a matter of sound cools or something, it's just, you know, off, because the title didn't represent the story. I mean, there's mind-numbling battles in the movie, but it's not the theme at all.

i think there was a time during the late 90s when having a dark ending was something that made the movie unique or to tell a new kind of story that was a bit more interesting than all the hero saves the day action stuff that was made at the time where every main char seemed invincible. it brought stakes to the experience. however now its just as a cheap way for directors to make an ending. most of the times new movies with dark endings just lack catharsis.

I gotta agree with you, in my opinion, the movie is superior in terms of fleshing out character dynamics (which I seen many Hollywood movies been good at) and manga was superior in terms having more details of characters and story mechanics. That just leaves out light novel, which I haven't read yet.

In what way was any of that "unbelievable" at all. It's obvious that the manga would have been so good. That's how it is for manga and most source material.

[@hb0x]

Watched the movie, read both the light novel and manga, here's my two cent: 1. The movie has 'better suited for large crowd' ending, but doesn't necessarily mean it's better than the novel's ending. 2. Rita in the movie is NOWHERE near as bad-ass as in the novel and manga. She wields a freaking GIANT AXE instead of a thin copter's wing in the movie. 3. Tom Cruise is so so much cooler than Keiji. 4. The novel is very good, and the movie is very well-done (of course,it's Doug Liman). If you haven't watched the movie or read the novel/manga, try all of them, I am sure you won't be disappointed.

Thats because its anime bullshit. Can you visualize a loly holding a weapon that is heavier than her + her suit? You just accept that because the manga media allows such aesthetic nonsense. Also, axes chops, they don't cut. Clearly japanese culture never touched one.

Edge of tomorrow wouldn't exist without All you need is kill. But for me Edge of Tomorrow is better for these reasons : 1. Unforced black/dark humour with memorable scenes and dialogue. "On your feet, Maggot ! Maggot ! Maggot !" *crushed under the truck* "What the hell was he thinking?" 2. While AYNIK is very serious with tragedy, edge of tomorrow is more well rounded with very good and smooth tone shift, it escapes from "taking itself too seriously" aka "too edgy" criticism. 3. Sober atmosphere and design/visuals. While some would thinks this is boring, it allows people to focus more on the story. It also adds more to realism and believability as the audience is more familiar with the present culture of 21st century military. Imagine a flashy suit like in the manga with that city landscape, led tv, smartphones, the familiar military aircrafts and uniforms. It will looked out of place. The result is a movie with good action scenes and not relying too much on bad cgi like other scifi movies.

No, there is a rule of 3 in comedy, basically stating that a good gag can/should be used 3 times for maximum effect. Less than 3 is not getting the full effect, more than 3 is boring the audience. A Clear example of this is in Soul Eater, when the Grim Reaper and Spirit discuss such.

[@trequor]

Samuel Reeves Yeah but legend has it if you make the same joke enough times it wraps back around and becomes funny again

[@timrobinson513]

Please stop the "say it out loud" jokes!!!!!!!!!!!! They get old fast!

[@iidirectxii7545]

So glad Edge of Tomorrow is getting a sequel, the first movie was so good.

[@Rick-ko1yo]

Still waiting?

[@lilkuya8540]

So that was a lie

[@daggyag9613]

Aug 2019 and i watched this movie again. Still an all time under rated movie, still very entertaining, funny, a mixture of sadness and happiness at the same time, still 1 of my favourite movies! And i will watch it again and again

[@JohannaSarkar]

I didn't care for the movie ending, but up until that it's GREAT! Great clip also, I think I need to hunt that manga down

[@bckroobnzi141]

Why? It had a good ending.

[@JohannaSarkar]

FancyLlamas it wasnt horrible, just a bit to cheesy and hollywood for my liking :) still love the movie though!

[@beckettgrice1085]

I think you can get it online at www.viz.com/shonenjump. They have a really nice reading system, so I think it's worth paying for.

[@JohannaSarkar]

Beckett Grice thank you, i will check it out 😊

[@Simon-fc9hg]

The book is better than the manga. The extra details add a lot to the story in my opinion.

[@SunshineSML]

Do Full Metal Jacket

[@konstantinbelyshev2514]

and Dispatches? Thy're so different that there's basically nothing to compare. The book isn't even a novel.

[@stephenbaker7750]

Live Die Repeat is actually my favorite movie of all time so I'm glad this video exists to give me more understanding on its inspiration.

[@3xfaster]

Thank you! Your are the first video I’ve seen that’s done a breakdown of the source material for the film, and you e done well!

[@roopelindgren98]

The Mimics in the manga really look like the Langoliers.

[@Holycow8498]

except less shitty

[@roopelindgren98]

Yep.

[@Aquascape_Dreaming]

@@Holycow8498 Both look horrible, in fact the langoliers look slightly less awkward and clumsy.

[@pauldee7504]

@Tyrell Suraiya I find the mimics in manga are cute But they're deadly, too...

[@MrFernando182100]

I was waiting for 11:47

[@kaygamer7220]

Fernando Matehuala Me too.... watched this scene like a thousand times... Also favourite scene in the movie....

[@bamb0ostick]

Gotta love that famous Tom Cruise yelp xD

[@fennexflame3660]

*Roblox death noise*

[@willyboods5197]

Thanks for the video. I just saw this film for the first time and I’m so shocked how it’s not talked about. I loved it!

[@NeostormXLMAX]

this is probably the most adaptation, after the battle angel atlia one, or the speed racer one, it takes a completely different approach, by completely changing it so it doesn't even seem like from originally a japanese work, but still takes almost every aspect from it and almost same story despite the asthetic differences also i like how they actually anglicized the names so it made sense instead of just stupidly. keiji became kage and rita remained the same

[@raizors1331]

Kenji at the end of manga/novel get his title "Killer cage", that was written on his personal power armor, implying that it is "A cage to hold the killer" (referencing the fact that he killed Rita, and injured a lot of people after that, a little detail that wasn't covered by the manga). The movie basically take the title for the protagonist's name, "Cage".

[@nimay13]

Edge of tomorrow should follow All you need is kill ending. Easier to transition to a sequel.

[@artfire28]

nimay13 the thing was they don't know if the film would become commercially successful. the result: critically acclaimed RT score of 91%, but only made almost 50% from the budget given. still we get the sequel.

[@jeffmaesar]

The other differences (attention not really a spoiler) : Keiji sees the loop the same way as a speedrunner sees to improve himself and master his craft to kill mimics including acceptable loss, when Cage is mostly projectied in a ever repeating PTSD of the horror of war as he tries to save everyone he can.

[@Hawkguy327]

These keep getting better and better! Keep it up guys!

[@luckyexplorer1053]

Really Tom Cruise the man that is into airplane stunts, action movies, and 80's teen movies, just went through a movie that was based on a manga, that was drawn by japanimation. CineFix: yes. My I see it? CineFix: yes.

[@psychotronic_x]

Great overall could've used less "sounds like" jokes

[@jeckerdoesvids5166]

"Which sounds like a... when saying it out loud" that fucking annoyed the hell out of me.

[@mrtyki2046]

I just read the story and I found both the movie and manga and I found both great. While I like how tgey quantified just how much death and pain he has experienced, but at the same time not knowing how many times he has died makes it better when you start to see how he's changed and how even you aren't seeing everything. Both are great and I hope the sequel is as good.

[@Mangalex28]

Nice video guys, you get to the point and give interesting informations along with your own analyze. Good stuff.

[@SirDiesAlat]

"When I say it out loud.....When I say it out loud.....When I say it out loud.....When I say it out loud.....When I say it out loud.....When I say it out loud.....When I say it out loud.....When I say it out loud.....When I say it out loud....."STOP SAYING IT OUT LOUD!!

[@bloodraven2o1o]

The one thing I didn't understand in the movie is how do you know that you lost that power? if you only start a new loop by dying, how do they know they can't do it anymore? You can't figure this out by dying and not waking up again, so how then?

[@silevern5524]

At some point I think Cage said that he "felt" he had lost the power. Also I would guess that he knew he got a blood transfusion which he knows from Rita would dilute the power.

[@bloodraven2o1o]

yeah, but how Rita knows that in the first place?

[@leathebot]

bloodraven2o1o along with repeating the days over, they gain a mental connection with the Mimics, which Rita lost after her transfusion.

[@FOREST10PL]

bloodraven2o1o it's Rita who said that she "felt" the loss of power.

[@frankdrebiin]

Rita explained the blood loss thing to him before and when he wakes up on the hospital bed, you see the black substance leave his eyes. Which he felt, I guess ^^ I was more troubled by the logic error before this. That they leave the generals office in a high speed car chase. Instead they could have used the device in the office, get the info and reset the day safely.

[@DBPCINC]

you guys need more of these

[@davidjeter9999]

I legit started watching this video, Left halfway through, marathoned the manga, and then finally came back to finish it. I do not regret it

[@augustokonrad3572]

Imagine: The mimics from Edge of Tommorrow vs the Heptapods from Arriaval. Ultimade Free will vs Ultimade Determinism

[@joshuahayles3219]

6:10 I think this highlights a fundamental difference between western culture and Japanese culture. He's not winning the fight because hes controlling time. When he says he's breaking down every second he means that he's trained so hard that he can analyze the fight and is better than his opponent. Thats the fundamental difference between the two adaptations. In the Graphic novel the protagonist is training to become a better fighter. In Edge of Tomorrow the protagonists are shown trying to memorize what happens so they can cheat. One is a story about training to be the best there is while the other is a power fantasty like ground hog day. And I think this shows a lot about the two cultures that they come from. At least that was my interpretation.

[@joshuahayles3219]

People say the movie is good and even tho I really like the movie the time travel makes almost zero sense and neither does the ending. In the graphic novel it sounds very plausible.

[@hithere5553]

Joshua Hayles please, it's just Star Trek jargon.

[@joshuahayles3219]

Hi There what is?

[@hithere5553]

Joshua Hayles the explanation for why they have their powers in the manga is just sci-fi banter, I'd rather it be left unexplained.

[@joshuahayles3219]

Hi There they did try to explained​ it in the movie tho. my point is that they did a bad job

[@onewinter9411]

I remembered watching this with my new roommate and we bonded over this movie, raving on how cool it was from start to finish.

[@matthew1882]

I agree I think this is an under apreciated sci-fi gem in a genre that let's face hasn't produced many great works lately.

[@DavidEvans_dle]

I really, really, really hope we get some prior story on Rita in the sequel. Emily Blunt is well a great actress. Also, knowing Tom Cruise rank, position and regiment would also be nice. The battle of Japan and how the mimics environmental transformation process work would also be nice. Not a fan of backstories in sequels. Plus tachyon particle is a StarTrek thingy.

[@denniswilliams6519]

One thing I find funny is that, in the All You Need is Kill Manga (From what I remember) there was an in-universe Hollywood version of Rita that was cast with extra curves and totally sexualized. Emily Blunt is certainly pretty, but the actual Hollywood version of Rita was less sexualized than the fake Hollywood Rita in the manga.

[@kennethgonzalbo3328]

10:47 that detail is so good

[@Noone-of-your-Business]

The most outstanding thing in this movie to me are the incredibly humouros moments when the protagonist practises his skills through the loops. So many hilarious video game deaths...

[@Pewpewpew182]

You guy's just made my day!!! Edge of tomorrow was such a surprise. RIP Bill Paxton

[@pizzamcgee5469]

Sooooo underrated...love it...needs a franchise

[@kyngtruccie8817]

I loved All you need is kill. And I love this movie also. It's a VERY well done adaption. Considering it is a movie and not a long running series. It makes sense that they would have to give us an ending we would be satisfied with. Because if the movie ended like how the manga did nobody would be happy with it.

[@sustainablemma283]

beautifully done fellas, bravo!

[@TheRyderShotgunn]

wait wait wait THEYRE MAKING A SEQUEL!? also, read the manga. its good shit.

[@DaytimeOperator]

The Alpha’s are able to reset the day back 24 hours. The omega is able to reset back 48 hours. This is like having 2 save files. If you find that your Alpha option never wins, you may need to go back 2 days to your omega file, which may give you more time for strategy and options.

[@NyuuMikuru1]

Thanks to this, I was able to read the entire manga to the end.

[@Plasteel1]

One of my favorite all time SciFi movies!

[@alaplaya5]

My brothers didn’t want to watch it when I said that the source material was a manga/novel. But after 10 min. Everyone was silently and carefully watching it XD it‘s really a good movie, wouldn’t have thought it

[@KAfNGET]

You forget to mention the mechanic girl.

[@mcrancher4587]

michael shuttlebutt they also say "one of her trademark axes" like if more people use them, even though the mechanic girl made one specifically for her, then made one for keiji when he asked.

[@hprhaiku]

It’s been 4 years since you said there’d be a sequel…. I STILL BELIEVE!!!!!!

[@ericpratt6414]

I think you might be missing the point of the cafeteria fight scene in the manga. He doesn't have the ability to break down, or slow down time, to dodge the attacks. It's showing that being in this loop for so long has turned him into a seasoned fighter.

[@PenguinjitsuX]

This is the first time that I liked the movie way better than the original manga/book. The way the movie tricks you into thinking the number of resets is way lower than it really is was amazing, and I just loved the entire plot/story a lot better in the movie.

[@Dylan_Otto]

man, getting emotionally attached to Rita in the manga was a baaaaad idea

[@JackFlanders]

That was very interesting. Thank-you.

[@toopieare]

Having read the (translated) book and seen the movie, this is one of those few cases where I prefer the movie.

[@coolidgedollar2154]

Third movie: "Live, Die, Repeat ... and Repeat ... and Repeat." Or alternatively, "The Repeatening."

[@BonDieu617]

LDR: Repeat Harder

[@coolidgedollar2154]

I'm reminded of the comedy sketch where Ben Stiller plays a stunt double for Tom Cruise: "This mission, it just got a hell of a lot more impossibler."

[@koatam]

[@theoilygoosestudio2109]

One of my Favourite Mangas, when i first saw the trailer for the movie when it came out. I was like WTF this is exactly like the manga I was just reading. Was happy to see it in the credits of the movie. Loved both the movie and the manga, hollywooding it went well in this rare case XD

[@tzaneee]

this is like groundhog day with mecha suits and a alien invasion....whats not to like about the movie ?

[@WulfysGamingTidbits]

The light novel/manga version of Rita is battle hardened because of the loop. She’s been through so many she could predict the movements of her enemies.

[@thadz2493]

It's same with Cage! Rita asked: how many times have we been here? I bet he did everything to keep her from dying

[@raizors1331]

Actually Rita is already quite good even before the loops. She's among the aces of human that hunt multiple mimics. It's after the loop that she become the war god who killed so much mimics that the military have to keep making up more medals to awards her.

[@KASA852]

O man I love this movie so much. Didnt know about the manga. THANKS!

[@jamesconnors5653]

Thank you, good info.

[@AdamTheVox]

Here is good idea for the guy that keeps saying "'when I say it out laud": Comedy comes in threes. Don't overdo one joke.

[@jaredweber9407]

How did movie Rita know she was out of the loop without dying?

[@FOREST10PL]

Jared Weber she said that she "felt" the loss of power.

[@shulkb5]

In the Nobel she saw Keiji kill several mimics and running after the mimic who are "rulling" the time then she conclude he is on the loop like she Washington before him

[@shulkb5]

She was*

[@IconoclastX]

cause cage saw her die

[@TheRussianLondoner]

Edge Of Tomorrow was so much better title... Thanks guys for an awesome video

This looks amazing I need to read now
