I wish they would have just lifted the HnG translation wholesale and threw them some money instead of giving us this lifeless translation we got for the anime.

Dudley's gently caress grill didn't make it in, but luckily Mr Penis Head made it in unadulterated as the artists originally intended.

I was pleasantly surprised. The cheapness often shows, but the actual fights were good. My main issue was the pacing, a lot of side characters and subplots kinda get pushed out which is a lot of what makes the series so charming. One major omission was Medicine Man's fight which was a shame, but they hit most of the other major beats. One thing I loved was the heavily stylized cutaways for explanations and backstory. They have a really rough and loosely animated motion comic sort of thing going on with a more vibrant color palette and it looks awesome while still being pretty cheap to produce. The fights ranged from decent to legitimately awesome. They really got a lot of the fine details of the movements down which was nice to see, but that was always one thing I was optimistic about. It's not exactly the show we wanted, but I still really enjoyed it. It ends with Ohma's first fight in the tournament, so I'm really hoping we get a season 2 because the fights after that are some of my favorite in the series, and the beard will finally begin his rampage. E:woops there was another episode, Murobuchi Gozo got loving robbed god drat it, that was one of the coolest fights in the early block despite being a job and they cut it down to just the last punch tweet my meat fucked around with this message at 19:02 on Jul 31, 2019 |

Jose posted:What the gently caress he's an important character too This is probably an exaggeration. His contribution to the story is to be an early roadblock to help prove that Ohma is a contender, then he basically vanishes entirely from the plot for the entire manga(barring a few jokey "camping out on the island with his good buddy" scenes that are ultimately irrelevant) before pulling a single trick at the end which you could easily just adjust to having been done by someone else.

kaburagi seemed like he would be important later on, since he was hanging out on the island secretly all that time. as it turned out, he was not important later on. if they had to ditch any character for the anime, kaburagi's probably the best choice.

I do like that the OP has Kazzy breaking out some sick martial arts moves, that's about all the positive things I can say for the anime aside from the fact it's made me re-read a bunch of chapters today

oof, my girl shion's design. she looks like she might conceivably give a gently caress, which we all know shion would never do.

After Hatsumi was beaten by Agito in their match and was lying down on the arena floor, Shion rushed over to Hatsumi's side with an extremely concerned look on her face. She's a tsundere at heart.

She also gave a gently caress when Setsuna turned out to be a major psycho.

shion realized she was in danger from her super crazy murdery fighter, and then her reaction was to shrug and continue with the tournament.

This show mostly looks like poo poo, but occasionally looks decent (when it's 2D) and rarely looks loving AMAZING (Raian using removal, for example). The sound design is great and the music is excellent, the OP is a banger. I just can't decide if this is decent or not, it just looks so ugly usually. But all the flashback poo poo looks good, and each fight usually has a few moments that look outstanding. The occasional switch to 2D art in the normal poo poo is really jarring, even more so when they just drop the 2D art in with 3D poo poo. It almost feels like they were originally planning to use the 3D models as a base and then replacing it with the 2D art. Because in some scenes that clearly DID happen. Everyone in this thread knows how strong the source material is, and I would for sure recommend anyone who likes the manga to at least watch Raian's fight.

I'm glad the kept the entirety of Jerry Tyson's back story, it's my favorite backstory. Also he sounds like Bobobo to me.

A few things about the anime. I'll probably get into detail about the changes eventually but skipping the scene where Kazzy is getting yelled at and just basically not paying attention to his boss and especially not even mentioning his second son is a real shame. He thanks Ohma for how much his life has changed but we didn't actually get to see a lot of how it changed in the anime. That scene where Ohma beats up the biker gang was a great moment.

Chapter 28 is out and I have to say, if we get many more chapters like this it's going to really suck the air out of the already fairly obvious reveal that Koga and Kazuo are distant relatives

Dias posted:Koga is the definition of "talk poo poo, get hit". To Koga's credit, his usual reaction to getting hit is "I respect that you have hit me and I was wrong to talk poo poo." Which somehow makes it funnier than he keeps doing it.
