I like your PFP

I saw you made a review on Koukando ga Mieru You ni Natta n daga, Heroine ga Count Stop shiteiru Ken and said that you haven't read the full translation yet. Well, it is fully translated into English now!

Hey, I just read your review and I have no problem with your opinions on Kaguya-sama.

This is just my opinion, but I think the anime and manga both have a similar balance of comedy/drama. In fact, the manga might even have more comedy since some of the comedy is cut out in the anime.

You said pacing was the issue, but I think the real problem is the [lack of] impact of the dramatic scenes. Not saying that its done terribly in the anime, but its a better viewing experience in the manga because these are typically a large panel of a character's face zoomed-in with a brooding look. (We could meme about how often Aka Akasaka overuses this type of shot, but it genuinely is a good technique by the mangaka.)

Any manga reader can tell that these scenes are important because they have larger panels than the rest. There are more details in the shot, like the eyes or hair.

And, since this is a manga, you can pause and take in the scene for as long as you like. There is more impact here.

I've seen others online say that Kaguya-sama isn't a serious anime and isn't deeper than what it seems. Do you think there is a problem with the image/brand that Kaguya-sama gives off? People legitmately think its just "that cute death note romcom".
