| Basically Spartacus as anime. Kinda hyped for this. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Normally I like to defend CGI anime shows, but for some reason, this just looks really off in a sadly pretty meh way. |
 |
| manga is great, but this amateur lvl CGI is awul, like dragons dogma |
"I can see it! The greatest fortress in the world... OUTER HEAVEN!! And somewhere ahead... METAL GEAR is waiting! LET´S GO!!" |
| The CG here is kinda jarring and a little bit off-putting imo. I've never heard of the manga until now, so I (might) give this a chance? |

| OH COME ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SERIOUSLY!!!! One of the most UNDERRATED and UNDEREXPOSED manga that I was never, but seriously NEVER expecting to get an adaptation is getting an adaptation and it happens to be cgi???? cgi??? really???????? (◎_◎;) (◎_◎;) (◎_◎;) damn it, I never get emotional about this, but damn it!!!! Well.... I just hope the manga gets more exposition as a result of this. gosh!!! |
