| LapisLazuli 05/04/19 11:48:28 PM #182: | Actually, there is another reason now that I think about it. Wanting to experience it with someone else. There's something to be said for wanting to watch OPM season 2 with a group of people or a friend, that's something that won't be the same with the manga. But alone? Naw, worthless. Take Baki for example. I had a good time watching this with my roomate because it was fun reacting to it with them, but if I'm being completely honest....it's a super bland adaptation that adds nothing, other than a good soundtrack. I would have never in a million years continued to watch this for myself after reading the manga, and I know this from the incredibley vast difference in my engagement having watched season 1 before reading and watching season 2 after reading, and realizing the anime was just a 1 to 1 copy paste from the manga with no flair whatsoever, really not much different than a motion comic. Now, there are some people out there who just don't want to read manga, and I get that. If that's how you feel, not much I can say. But cases like Baki and OPM2 are clear examples of a still image manga having better "animation" than an actual anime. --- ... Copied to Clipboard! |
