not fond of the adaptation

Something tells me the original material sucks just as much. And in my book, this is worse than Fairy Gone. Fairy Gone at least uses tropes well. This series? A walking cliche that's like ancient-tier cliche. When people did not know how to properly write stories.

Personally, I think the concept for the series is great for emotional storytelling, and it delivers on that at it's best. The anime fails when it's not at the manga's best while the manga isn't always at it's best points, but still manages to be pretty decent at it's worst points. Fairy Gone is better though.

Fairy Gone is shit, waste of my time.

I have never read the manga (trying to only watch the anime this time) and I can definitely see the potential for a good story to be there but then every thing seems to fall flat. Which is a bit annoying as I wish I could see where it could really go than where it’s currently at :/

So I recently watched the first three episodes, and read the first three or four chapters and I gotta say. The anime isn't the best adaptation.

As someone who has read all the translated material for this series, this is an understatement. The early episodes veered off of the source in many ways but honestly those weren't even that bad. Not until "Coup de grace" our Anti-Incarnate military unit comes in did the Anime adaptation just take a sharp left into completely ignoring the source material. The unit's gear is complete rubbish with basically machineguns, grenade launchers, jet packs, and rocket boots. It's utterly ridiculous. In the source these men were brave soldiers fighting beasts with normal arms and equipment, not some super special hi-tech nonsense unit. It completely removes any sense of the post-Civil War-esque time period the series is set in and ruins a lot of the weight of their battles.

I disagree with you
Adaptation not good but same time not bad
Its just gave you little diffrent Experiment of manga

NG_Chloe said:
wow, that sounds horrible. it's a good thing I didn't make it passed the first three episodes

If by different experience, you mean it completely loses the entire point, then yes. This adaptation is trying entirely too hard to be a badass action series, and that's not what Sacred Beasts is about. MAPPA dropped the ball here on many levels. It's not a bad anime, but it is a .

No
Anime is trying give more drama to beasts
Anime want you feeling sorry to them
You should watch it

The manga had a good idea and art, just bad execution, the anime's art was decent, the promising dark fantasy idea was there. But the execution was very bad. I had hoped that the anime would not be loyal and they would play around a bit but, sadly now we have another poor atempt at a "dark fantasy" series.
