Feel free to disagree and ignore, this is just me wanting to vent a bit

As I love sooooo much the manga (even tho the last chapter got me kinda disappointed somehow, but that's not the point here) I'd like to complain a little since im really frustrated with this adaptation

-bad animation: god i hate so much those still frames. It's okay if they put one once in a while, but bruh im watching an animation here if i didn't want to see them moving and all that's supposed to be in an animation i could've just read the manga.. plus they're not even pretty and detailed frames, they're so bad imo jesus
the gap between baraou's manga and anime is so big and disappointing

-bad pacing and fr direction is terrible: they rushed everything trying to put 17 freaking volumes in 24 episodes, but i would still be okay with this if it had a good direction and animation. It's always sad when they cut stuffs in the story but it can be saved when there's a good director and animators. I was so sad with Henry's first appearance cause in the manga it's so beautiful and kinda dramatic but i couldn't feel anything but disappointment when i watched the anime since he's my favorite character ... but not only his scenes i find everything so bad and emotionless
Baraou is based on Shakespeare everything is drama and i cried so much while reading it, but even if u know the story you cannot get the feeling they're trying to share when u watch it.

I feel sad that it could reach so many people and get lots of fans cause baraou no souretsu is definitely an amazing work, but if you just see the anime you'll never understand it...

- about the ost: i really can't say anything, i haven't paid attention but that's definitely not the main problem lol, btw i really like the opening and ending songs, but i dont like the animation in there...so i can't appreciate it as it deserves, specially the opening cause the song is really good but that animation doesn't really fits it in my opinion

-henry: this is just me loving Henry so much and getting pissed that this adaptation isn't worthy of him (ノ｀⌒´)ノ┫：・┻┻ i was so excited when they announced an anime adaptation so i could see Henry moving and smiling and being pretty with a good and well detailed animation, i had everything settled in my mind i could even see the moment he first appears and his tears falling down dramatically and beautifully and me crying...
but then they said the studio was j.c.staff ... My hopes went down so fast, and now im here annoyed jshdjje

this studio is not good bruh i love Saiki kusuo but animation is not something that good tho it's fine for that kind of anime but not for baraou (ok j.c.staff has a lot of other works not only saiki, but i mentioned it from the ones i know like shokugeki and Satsuriku)

But, those shows i mentioned above are better directed so they dont look so bad like this

*Sigh*
that's it i don't even know what i said my bad if i wrote something that's not understandable and sorry for typos

baraou is amazing, so it deserves a lot better and my henry too ಥ_ಥ

Here is my opinion, I'm not a manga reader. Every episode seems like nothing ever happens. The pacing is clearly rushed yet it seems so slow.
The story so far does not have an end goal and I'm currently not invested as I could. The characters have potential and I think they'll be developed enough.
The animation is bad, but the still frames at least look decent thanks to the cool overall stile. The main problem I have is that there is no sense of 3d. It looks like it's a theater play. Just using more cg (even bad) would have made the world seem more real and lived in.
But honestly I don't really care about the animation, I watch it before AoT so everything there looks incredible.

OST pretty good
I'll keep watching until it gets either too bad or too boring. Overall definitely doesn't deserve a 5.8 score

Steins;Gate and AoT good
Demon Slayer bad

The thing is my friend is that this story is character driven, as when it comes to the plot it's the same thing over and over again. The manga however gets you invested with its characters and you end up liking the majority as well as feeling attached to them. But sadly this adaptation stripped everything away. Everything that made that manga special.

I have not read the manga but I noticed the many pictures in the animation (as for the latest ep at the river - I mean they could have done it a bit more like dramatic.).
I like the OST pretty much. But it gives the anime a slight darker feeling than it actually is animated imo (it could have been like darker animated then).
The story itself is really good for now and I don't mind that there was not a lot going on in the latest ep - and I can imagine the manga is great and I understand people saying the anime is bad compared to the manga.
And I haven't read the manga so the anime is better what I first expected. I just like the setting the anime takes place. I keep on watching.

I dropped it cause it seemed like they were shipping Henry and Richard even though Henry has a son Richards age and I was like no thank you, it’s not that I don’t like bl it’s that it was just too weird who knows if it was intended that way but nah

I love the dark and shoujo-esque aesthetics. Clever use of small budget > generic high quality animation

I mean...henry is one of the romantic interests of Richard during the story, and in my opinion as henry simp sjdjdjd he's the best one

but i get what u say, even tho if you read the manga you'd understand their relationship and all much better, specially about henry oh he's such an angel i wish he'd never suffered x~x

About Henry's son, i think henry is not that old he probably just was forced to have a son at early age, ofc he's older than Richard but there's nothing wrong since richard will get older during the story as well... But nothing really happens between them it's just a tragic and sad relationship

in the beginning henry never had this kind of interest on richard, he's just too needy and saw richard as his "light", but at time flies it'll change...but the ending of the manga wasn't gentle with them (˘･_･˘)

Well idk it's just my opinion, u can keep with yours ^^ i don't have the intention to change it

In this case you might be right, but generally speaking definitely not. For example, thinking that Bakemonogatari is more visually interesting than Demon Slayer is far from crazy.

Oh my, you're so right! I was just looking for a forum where I can complain about the anime (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ
I read the whole manga and collect it, because I'm a big fan of Aya Kanno's work, but now I'm really disappointed of the adaptation. I didn't want to watch the episodes because after watching the first one I felt betrayed lol
I know JC Staff animation is not super good, but they could've make a bigger effort to make it better, is like they're ruining a beautiful and amazing work of art! I'm not blaming only the studio, but I think they're trying to cover all the story in such a short amount of episodes that they cut all the important things from the story. Poor frames, and I feel there's a filter or something that make pale characters shiny, or stand out too much with a dull background.

I think I had so high hopes for the anime than then it went down like a free fall xD I get mad at every episode that comes out because of how they're kinda destroying the art hshsjsj
About the ost can't say anything because, the op and Ed suit the show, but animation nononono, and themes sound good when the characters appear.
About Henry, I was also expecting a lot ( ≧Д≦) but the time he appears is so
not detailed and basically they don't show so much of the character so aghhhh yeah I'm annoyed too

There's a part in episode 4 where Richard falls to the river and Edward saved Richard, by giving him cpr but they cut that part and only put when Richard opens his(?) eyes and sees a brilliant Henry lol if there'll be more of those cuts I think people that only watch the anime won't understand well what's happening •́ ‿ ,•̀

I just came here to roast the anime because I'm so mad hdkakfkf
Can't wait to see Buckingham and hope they don't ruin him so badly but I just have lost all my hopes and I'm fighting to not drop it.
And Catesby my baby he needs to appear more and then I'll be happy
(~￣³￣)~
But after all I think Baraou deserves more fans. So people, you should just quit anime and start reading the manga cause it's a real work of art ✧*。
