Fish eats girl. Greatest love story ever told.Two episodes so far, share your h/u/mble opinion about the adaptation, manga or sensitive subjects.
Love the manga, thought the adaptation had a lot of potential but got worried when I saw the trailer. I don't think it's gonna be a Sasakoi but honestly this anime is very generic in terms of directing and overall visuals, which is way less than this manga deserves imo.Anyway I guess I'll just have to settle for an average adaptation. Sad because this is one of my favorite yuri manga but eh what's done is done. The team seems to have passion for the series but the lack of production value quite honestly made me sad. I know its still better than most seasonals I just don't like it that much.
>>4481744I WANT TO HAVE SEX WITH THIS ENDINGdoes anyone know who was in charge of the illustration for it? literally my favorite anime artstyle atm but i can't find any credits
I'm not into Yuri or Romance in general but the manga is incredibleDisappointed with the anime adaptation, clearly needs more of a budget and/or better staff or time. I do think the OP shows us a vision of what it could have been with more resources and I think that's great, shame it's only the OPI will say episode 2 had less badly composed shots and much better executed surrealist water scenes/effects then episode 1 at least, hopefully the trend continues>>4481751Is it better then most seasonals tho? Your average seasonal shonen looks pretty dang good most of the time
>>4481821Don't think its fair to compare action shonen to this but yeah I'm really disappointed. I'm not really hyped for any upcoming yuri adaptations other than maybe KimiShinu, pure romance even when well-written just bores me
I always found it odd how Hinako wears long sleeves even in the middle of summer. How much you wanna bet she cuts herself?
>>4481902She has scars on her arms because of the accident, that's why wears long sleeves.
>>4482026ah right the "accident"
>>4482026Will the audience ever see those?
>>4482091You can catch a glimpse of the scars in episode 1, when Hinako's getting out of bed. But it's a blink-and-you-miss-it moment.
>>4482106Ok I found that on Ch1 p4 of the manga too, on her upper right arm.I am just curious if the mangaka did some research or if its just an excuse to always draw her in sleeves and tights.
>>4481780Needs a wallpaper version.
>>4481780It looks close to the manga’s artstyle, so perhaps the mangaka drew the stills for the ending
>>4482108There's a more direct shot later in the manga too but I don't remember the exact chapter. I completely missed the early scars and only noticed when someone pointed it out to me.
>>4481821I'm honestly a little puzzled why they adapted this. I love the manga but it's a very slow-paced work with a lot of talking and I feel like it doesn't gain a lot from being animated.
Hinako, who currently wants to kill herself, is being pursued by two youkai who are presumably still immortal? And one is a mermaid. If you remember the Japanese conception of a mermaid, if you eat a bite of its liver you will gain eternal life. And as it is already a youkai, stabbing it and removing a piece of its liver won't kill it. So ryona? Maybe even self inflicted?When the manga ends will the suicidal girl end up choosing eternity with her youkai friends and abandon humanity?
>>4482919Good clanker.
>>4482911I think it really could have benefitted from it if they almost did it in a spiderverse way, where there's still speech bubbles and paneling and such that's depicted with the surrealist water effectsThink about the first sequence in the classroom where Hinako's depression is depicted as her being underwater with fish swimming by in the window, having the speech bubbles there become wavy was a thing in the manga that was still lost in translation a bit even if the speech become drowned out in the anime
