I think the complaints about the animation were so overblown this shit looks fine.

And that's the Problem!! Sakadays isn't the manga which should look "Fine"

@M-T_S Not every anime needs to be like the goddamn JJK or DS.
the Sakamoto Days doesn't need flashy animation to shine, it is already amazing, I have friends who like SD more than Solo Leveling.
it is not only about the animation, it is also about the story, the OST, and the voice acting that makes it a very good anime.

Yea well I can’t relate since I haven’t read and frankly most people haven’t either since anime are meant to be promo for the source so I think it’ll do amazing.

@Marinate1016 I have read a few chapters, and the manga in the first chapter has a decent art style but with a very good motion effect, the author knows how to draw movement, but people seem to forget that, the manga is a fricking panel and a single episode is thousands of frames.

Yea it seem like people who just mad it don’t look like JJK because of Sakadays being one of jump biggest products which I mean.. I kinda get, but like in a vacuum the animation is solid 🤷🏾‍♂️

JJK and Demon Slayer made people's expectations sky rocket, which is not bad, but we know this industry is so toxic, with bad work environments and bad payment for the animators. If they have a problem they have to call the Production committee not the poor animators and the studio.

This series is so funny and action-packed. I like it so far, it’s great. Sakamoto is a great man and the best assassin ever.

He makes a good team with Lu and Shin. Can’t wait to see the next adventures!

And yeah I love Blue Lock it is one of my favorites.

It’s because I actually didn’t rate anything since lol. Plus I don’t rate animes until I am comfortable with the number I am giving, nothing more or less, otherwise you would see mangas, novels and many other animes to rate but no it’s not my alt or fake account. It is my main one, don’t have another tbh. Believe me or not.

Some do overdo it, hence why I said some stuff in my criticism on purpose to say, like no it’s not bad but it’s not good either. I am in the middle. Plus some bias is in there for sure because I do love the manga so much that I expected a better treatment of some kind.

Sorry about S2 blue lock, bro. Except for that last episode tho, that was peak. I do read the manga, still awaiting the actual final goal of the arc, and I do hope they adapt it better in next season because it deserves it.

Where did he say he wanted JJK or DS animation? Like stop putting words in his mouth. And it doesn’t matter what your friend thinks when the majority of people especially Japan is criticising it. It doesn’t need it but it looks mid. Like bro, you not caring for it to look better than this is not good as a fan at all. Finally it looks like OPM S2. So go defend that

I never said you were toxic for enjoying the anime. Again trying to put words in people’s mouths to dismiss any word. Keep projecting there, bud.

And yes you are a fake fan because you literally created a fake narrative to dismiss any constructive criticism for wanting a better adaptation of any kind, acting like this is the complaint.

Being rushed and having somehow unimpressive visuals is one thing, but this show here has tragically badly conceived fights.
Are they 1:1 with the manga, or some good elements were lost in the transition?

AyaazMahim said:
I really don't get the 3 episodes rule

Many don't actually know the rule...it should be applied only if you are not sold on the show, but you see potential. If it deosn't develop in the direction you hope for those 3 episodes, chances are it wouldn't at all, so you may drop it at this point.
People misinterpret it as you should give a 3 episodes to every show, which is incorrect. You can drop every show earlier, if it's obviuouse that it's not you cup of tea.

Animation isn't great but it's an enjoyable show and all the casual anime friends I have really like it. Will it win awards? No, but as long as it's enjoyable I can have cope for better animation in season 2. My real only complaint is with the editing. It feels like they added this grainy filter to it that was unnecessary.

Still, I'm very much enjoying the adaptation so far, but I do agree with those who think it can be better.

People expected this to be THE BIG SHOW OF THE YEAR
Hence why they won't settle... sakamoto is def watchable, but not everyone is happy with that.
They wanted it to be trending on X harder than Demon Slayer or JJK ever could.

I will just reply to the other one while I am at it because you are spamming for some reason and end this fast.

I watched multiple anime series from different studios including TMS. TMS has other animes and ironically most of them even rom-com ones look and has better animation.

I will give some other animes to be quick: Eminence in Shadow, Apothecary Diaries, Assassination Classroom, Re Zero, I could go on and on and none of these animes are made by MAPPA, Ufoatable, MADHOUSE, Kyoto, Bones, A1 or Cloverworks. But here we are trying to act like the ones criticising are the ones who only watched from these big studios…

Now take care and have a nice day.

This episode was really good it started off as goofy and funny with Nagumo being introduced as Sakamoto’s doppelgänger haha and it was so funny seeing Shin and Lu beat on an order member like bro just allowed himself to get kicked🤣🤣🤣

The ending of the episode was hella good tho, like out of nowhere it just got intense and lit like I was rooting for Sugar Bunny (Shin) at the end😭🔥🔥

Yeesh yall going on and on about the animation when it looked just fine in this episode I mean is it DS or JJK level of animation no but it still good imo my only complaint is that I wish there was more detailing on the character models tbh it looks kind of bland without the shading and whatnot yk but other than that the animation is still consistent from episode 1 so I’m enjoying this show while some of yall complain needlessly😋

Next episode I’m hoping we get Sakamoto vs Hard Boiled shits gonna be so lit man🤩🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

And Sakadays atp can't even have better animation than Hell's Paradise

And guess what there are other things aside from animation that sucks about Sakadays being from Art Direction,bad AD work, and comp despite having so many people working on it

Even Solo Leveling is going through it does that mean the quality of solo leveling have gone down to match Sakadays?

Lmao they actually cut out chapter 2 and 3 from the manga clown ass studio

@Uruichi Its a change that makes sense dip shit. You'd want to make Sakamoto's skinny reveal in the Boiled fight more impactful by not adapting a chapter where he turns skinny to take out a couple of random goons. It's a directorial choice that many anime do, JJK S1 did that too by switching and cutting a lot of panels out to make the story better as a viewing experience for non-manga readers.

I enjoyed this anime's art and color direction making it look like it came straight out of the late 2000s. Reminds me of Beelzebub or Gintama. I am one easy person to please and I enjoy the fights, the new anime fans just think Kimetsu no Yaiba level of animation is the norm.

@Confused_100 Good that you clarified that about your MAL account.
I'm not saying that it doesn't deserve a better adaptation, it has, but let's keep our expectations low, since we had Uzumaki and BLS2, in the last season, they were bad, even thou I was fine with the U-20 game, since episode 8 or 9 it started to get better, and that's my opinion you can disagree if you want.
And I don't want to spoil Blue Lock manga for the others but NEL is really a good arc, with amazing new characters and now that it is ending it is a little sad to me. but can't wait for the U-20 World Cup!
