[@kianyt5804]

I agree the csm anime somewhat fails to capture the mangas aesthetic, but it still has its own distinct aesthetic which is also very good. I believe theres a tradeoff, which is that I actually found myself caring about the characters a lot more. The manga does better at creating that gritty chaotic adrenaline pump, but the anime takes a bit more time with the characters and the "cleaner"aesthetic kinda brings them more to the forefront and puts more of a spotlight on their personality. All this to say that I think just bc its somewhat different from the manga I dont necessarily think its worse.

[@RamraiderEVO]

The main issue for me is that the aesthetic was a strong part of its identity so much so that changing it in the anime makes feel like its not csm. Slowing down a series that relies on being chaotic just doesn't work for me personally and their personalities are accented more in the manga cause of how over the top they are. I do agree with your last statement to a certain degree but the problem is when it changes its identity, that's when its an issue for me, especially when there was a possibility of truly highlighting the chaotic identity with an anime adaptation. This may be a hot take but i feel like this adaptation is further proof of mappas lack of ability to truly capture the identity of series. But in the end of the day if u do enjoy the adaptation, then thats good cause the point of entertainment is to be entertained

[@kianyt5804]

@@RamraiderEVO i would maintain that its still just a slight shift in "aesthetic". I don't find the differences significant enough to say the "identity" was changed, but even so, the argument is the same. If u like the new identity, its not a problem, so it all comes down to opinion. Its an adaptation after all, theres something to be said about adaptation being an artform in itself that allows u to explore a story in a different way, not just make a carbon copy in a different medium. As for me, i always found the csm manga very fun and exciting, but it left me pretty emotionally indifferent. With the anime's approach tho, i think it will really pay off in later seasons when a lot of the stronger more emotional character moments happen, and while i can concede its maybe less exciting than it would've been had it gotten the cracked out trigger style adaptation i know a lot of ppl wanted, its still a VERY exciting anime all things considered, and i think the tradeoff overall was worth it. I respect ur opinion tho.

[@glimpp1002]

Personally, I believe that the style the chainsaw man anime was going for was to highlight Fujimoto sensei's strongest point in storytelling which is melodrama, which is evident in his recent works like Look Back and Goodbye Eri. It may seem like Mappa failed in capturing the chaoticness of chainsaw man but personally, I believe they captured the melancholy of the whole story perfectly with its cinematic approach, which I think is the core essence of chainsaw man.

[@makima2883]

agree so much, the adaptation focused on the sense of realism that the manga has (the character interactions, dialogue, portrayal of deep themes and ideas), but at the same time the comedy suffers, the goofy and quirky comedy is lost in translation, at the same time the grittiness and messiness of the series is kind of lost as well because of the realism focus

[@eddie5354]

yea, thats why we don't read the manga.

[@davidiobrando]

The problem with shows like Call of the Night and Chainsaw Man is that you really can't capture their manga's vibe and aesthetic in anime form so they created their own unique vibe and aesthetic. I love both Call of the Night and Chainsaw Man as mangas and anime. As a manga reader, so far, Chainsaw Man has really surprised me with the level of detail, compositing and character acting during the character centered scenes. It shows that the people working on the show understand that it's not just another battle shonen where the fights are the most entertaining and important thing. Yes, the fights are bat shit crazy, even more so later in the series, but, in my opinion, the characters and how they're written vastly outshine the action.

[@yeetmeat2734]

I wholeheartedly agree. It feels like they know the anime can never be EXACTLY how you'd imagine it in the manga, so it takes the weaknesses of adaptation, and pushes more onto it to iron it out. It's like instead of trying to "fix" or "cover up" the inevitably of the cons that come with adapting it, they give us pros that can only come with it as an anime. Like the voice acting, the fight scenes, body language, and other stuff like that, that can only be in the anime. And all of this I believe is from the people who make this, understand this and *ACTUALLY GIVE A FUCK* 🥳🍾🎉✨️

[@expertarcher8542]

@@yeetmeat2734always nice to see people actually caring about the series they are creating.

[@takanara7]

Yeah and in particular trying to emulate Fujimoto's "lots of lines" style would be really, really difficult in Animation, because, like, you need to draw every line in every frame. There were some scenes in AOT season 4 (part two) where they actually did that in, like, one fight scene and it looked pretty cool, but obviously you can't keep it up. It would be cool to see CSM done in a mob psycho style style but what Mappa is doing is fine. Also with Yofukashi no Uta - the problem is always that what one person takes away as the style of the manga can be totally different for another person. Like I saw the Anime first, then read the Manga, and the Manga seemed to fit really well with the vibe of the Anime. Also the vibe of the Anime was hype as hell.

Now when it comes to TYBW,only the Yama's fight were considered as a Standout..All others eventhough were good,was not excellent.. If anything people are more hyped about the foreshadowing,plot revelation and character developments in Bleach as much as the Fights. Thats why Everything But The Rain had such a hype around it.. If anything,i can argue the First Cour of CSM was carried by its great visuals and cinematography(eventhough they failed to capture the essense of its Manga) as the main and great part about it will begin only in the later part. Bleach was simply just the best anime in 2022 mate.

[@chelronin7843]

idk i think csm pretty perfectly captures the manga. i read csm like 3 times completely before the anime released, ive now read it like 4-5 times more since the anime came out. i think the comedy is deadpan and blunt like the manga, the atmosphere is gritty, bloody, and dark. Neon colors would have looked so shit and been 100% worse. Shits not monogatari. i think people will start appreciating it more as it continues, i think because the anime is so different and experimental in how it presents an “adaptation” that it makes viewers uncomfortable because they expect anime adaptations to be 1:1 with everything the exact same when that wouldn’t have worked with how experimental and crazy fujimoto is with writing manga. It wouldn’t have translated well into animation if it captured what he was doing stylistically, since he did stuff that was specific to manga. The anime captures that essence and adds more to it. The emotional scenes have been especially more impactful. And the messiness of the fights has been perfectly accurate even if a one or two exact panels weren’t done EXACTLY like the manga

[@chainsaw8507]

"I think people will start appreciating it more as it continues" At least for me, it has been the opposite. Started out LOVING it, but as it continued I kept finding flaws here and there. Not too bad on their own, but they start to add up. Still think it's a great anime though. Also, neon colors would've been AWESOME for certain fights. The early chaotic ones specifically. The later fights should be more dark in color like the anime has now.

Eiko IS best girl and I am sad that not enough channels were covering Kongming, it was genuinely a great ride

Liked your video just because you are the first person I came across who said classroom of the elite is bad. I watched it's first season 2yrs ago and I didn't like it at all and when season 2 got announced and saw the hype I went back and read the manga for season 1 then watched season 2 and still didn't like it. Rather I hated it more

[@Assassin_Mayo13]

surprised that you didn't watch "do it yourself" it's really good

[@VietHoang-mf4wb]

I did not expect Bocchi the Rock to be that freakin' good. 10/10 show

[@fats2010]

surprised you havent gotten on renai flops yet think you'd have a lot to say abt it

[@Scyon13]

My issue with shikimori is the ml as well but not cause he's a "beta" but because he's boring like the majority of these types of mls, they're uninteresting like most harem protagonists ...

[@Neterosan28]

Based, Lycoreco and Bocchi the Rock is fire

[@EgnachHelton]

You missed Deaimon: Recipe for Happiness. It's a great SoL show for its budget. I would rate it as B tier.

[@eddiecampos]

NAAAAAH To Your Eternity is heat bro it does not deserve a D-tier rating
