Okay, my buddy and I just watched like 4, maybe 5 episodes of Wandering Witch Elaina, and holy HELL is she a terrible person. It ended up with us just losing our poo poo (very loudly) as more and more horrific things happen around her and she just basically says, "Well that's odd. Oh well," and just flies away. Thing is, I read a bit of the manga a while back, that's why we picked it up. I remember some of the messed-up situations from the manga, but Elaina didn't come off nearly as badly there. Sure - maybe she didn't dwell on things and lament when bad things happened, but she did seem to care like, in the moment. I guess my question is: Are we overreacting? Did the anime kinda shift her tone a bit, maybe make it seem like she's a trust fund kid on a gap year going around the world doing feel-good third-world tourism but not actually, y'know, helping?

Julias posted:Going by the various posts as it was airing, it seems like it's a bit of "it was always there" and "the anime adaptation exacerbated it due to trimming stories run time and her own internal thoughts" Endorph posted:the anime adaptation trimmed our her own thoughts, cut out some of the more lowkey stories, and also amped every story's darkness up by like 10-15%. Cool, ty. I’m glad I wasn’t lying to him when trying to defend her a little bit. I’m not sure if I would’ve preferred they didn’t trim anything out though, it’s kind of a hoot watching the anime and shouting about it.

The Colonel posted:i've heard the anime cuts out most of her bits of reflection, might be worth giving the manga or novels a look Yeah, I think I had my reaction to the anime here in the chat thread. Which is essentially your point. The anime makes her out to be a sociopath observing some messed up poo poo the she does not care about. Everything other medium makes her a human experiencing her travels around the world and reacting to them. It’s so pronounced that my friend who has no other frame of reference for the series was wondering if the anime director was doing it on purpose. Every episode was just him shouting “what the gently caress?! And she’s not doing ANYTHING??” Louder and louder.

Arcsquad12 posted:It's just the obsession with youth taken to a further degree than some other countries. The older I get the sillier it feels. I'm 28 this June, if I was an anime they'd give me bags under my eyes and the physical build of a man in his late fifties. I always laughed when anime would have a grizzled looking dude be the older figure, and he’s like 30. Now I’m 30 and I look like that oh god whyyyyy

GorfZaplen posted:The next arc is going to be interminable for you if you keep watching lol. Almost dropped the manga there, will probably avoid the anime too. There are good bits later but they're never that good. Pretty disappointing manga overall! Unless they totally rewrite the ending I don't see how the anime can really fix it either. It's not like a terrible twist ending or anything either, it's just a slow slide into tedium and disappointment. I’d like to return my free gorf.

Keep wearing them occasionally and seeing how big you can get the rip without it being obvious. It’s great fun. I went about a month and a half.

Taima posted:Finished Antarctica anime it was very good! I definitely cried irl, what can I say. Definite tonal shift, but if i may suggest something... Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou! In that link you'll find a download link with both the short OVAs and the original manga scans (This series, to my eternal dismay, probably will never be officially translated). You can watch the OVAs, then read the manga - they're both great, and I think it will show you a different side of manga. And if you won't take my word for it, take it from this absolute legend that I had no idea existed until 10 minutes ago but now I see is actually just me aged forward about 30 years. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kCXl9ooKCI

So I dove down a little bit of a hole just now, but as far as anyone can tell, Grumpy Jiisan is probably dead  But he DID have a twitter, and god dammit at some point in the future I'm going to be time-traveling back to the late 00s to retire in Arizona. Because I'm pretty sure he was just future me. https://twitter.com/grumpyjiisan/status/10709635350667264 E: sb hermit posted:The music for the 2nd OVA series is fantastic Oddly enough though, I've never actually made it around to Aria.

Didn’t the demon slayer manga end because of health problems in the mangaka’s family? Either her or her family, I don’t remember. E fwiw, op, I watched bleach and naruto back in the day. IMO Demon slayer is far better than either of them, even with its pacing problems toward the end. Rodenthar Drothman fucked around with this message at 13:45 on Jul 14, 2021 |
