Hmmm, another badass

Netflix loves atrocious CGI lol

Jan 29, 2019 4:55 AM by killuaxgon

they got everybody
how do they afford this? by scaling down money for everything else ?

Jan 28, 2019 3:08 PM by ahneeme

This CGI... Why they can't give up with that finaly? Make a full 2D or a full CGI but never ever combine them! The music was very good, the fight could be enjoyable but the graphics ruined the moment. Just remember the 2015 Berserk thing... don't go that way if you want to make this successful, everyone will be satisfied then. Thx!

Some scenes looks awkward to me.

Jan 27, 2019 7:10 PM by xchyssa

Well the combat itself looks good, everything else is still very iffy.

Huh if it ends up being a full-adaptation then hopefully it improves by the time it reaches the tournament arc because that's where the series biggest fights happens back to back.

What the actual fuck lmfao so many people

Jan 27, 2019 10:35 AM by Xenocrisi

Holy shit that's a long cast. And *additional* no less, lol.

Jan 27, 2019 9:50 AM by Danae

Manga fight scene are amazing. I hope that anime will get epic fight scenes despite of cgi

Jan 27, 2019 9:39 AM by GODlinn

looking at that huge list of cast is this going to be a complete anime adaptation since the manga is finished already? i might check it out if it is

Jan 27, 2019 9:36 AM by deg

ewwww look like some shitty fighting ps1 game. I'll pass on this one netflix.

Jan 27, 2019 9:34 AM by keragamming

That felt like a bloodier version of Street Fighter. Although the CG looks extremely off due to the character designs. I'll wait for reviews first.

Jan 27, 2019 7:22 AM by Hoppy

Jesus christ thats a lot of people.
Also, Jesus christ that PV was ugly... Pretty sure im gonna skip this, unless i hear amazing things about it.
