I had to quit 7 episodes in cause I just couldn’t handle how they changed the tiny details and it lost the gothic aspect of the manga.

I never said i was gonna stop watching but I was a bit disappointed going into season 3 is all. I wouldn’t call it the best though. I really liked it at first too Plan to read the manga after to see the difference.

That’s valid if you read it first before watching. I’m usually like that seeing adaptations but I went in half blind cuz I read what people said about it prior but I still was curious

That’s fair to go in blind. I usually like the read the manga before the anime cause mangas are usually better than animes in my opinion. There’s just so much beauty and personality to the manga that the anime loses.

It makes sense because most of the details would be written and they can only fit so much into an anime if it’s an adaptation. For me I like to watch and if I like it enough I’ll read the manga. There was a couple where I had to see what happened next and I was like damn if only the anime had the full story like the manga

I get that a lot. For HxH I watched the anime first and when the story stopped then I kept on reading with the manga. And I get that studio deen (I think that’s the one who did Tokyo Ghoul?) would have a tough time animating in all of Uta’s tattoos or certain effects that the manga has, but it is just hard for me to come to terms with cause the manga is so special (to me at least)

That makes sense. Plus there’s a lot more factors with making an anime verses a manga cuz you need writers actors and the artists and animators verses just writers and illustrators for manga, etc. even with a little overlap. Not to mention budgeting. I guess you gotta take what you can get with anime’s and mangas that speak to you

Yeah, so I get it and I know studio deen wouldn’t be changing their art style completely for one anime. I’m happy you’re getting a taste of TG. I’m really excited for you to read the manga once you’re done with the anime!

Right right. Thanks! At the very least I enjoyed the first and most of the second season. Just gonna power through and then see how the manga compares.

after season 1, the other 3 seasons compress 260 chapters into 36 episodes and half of that doesn’t even follow the story from the manga, i wish it was just a stylistic change 😭😭
