This was all over /a/ when the manga was running but as soon as the previews for the anime dropped, all hope was lost. Is this the most severe example of an adaptation butchering the source material?
One of them. Berserk 2016/2017 gives it a run for its money. Also OPM Season 3 is up there too.
>>284513712>>284513893those are all cases of bad source material = bad adaptation
>>284514102op not related
The original cursed adaptation was pic related, but even that had something of value (the OST) compared to Biscuit Hammer.
>>284513712people wanted this animated for years, we joked how it would never happen.Then news came out people were hyped. Then the trailer dropped.... then it came out and made berserk 2016 of all things look good.Studios that pull shit like this should never get work again. It really harms a manga legacy
People are still talking about Biscuit Hammer's shit adaptation but I can't remember the last time anyone brought of Sengoku Youko's competent adaptation.
>>284514647SY anime was actually decent
>>284514647Probably because a shit adaptation of a great manga is more memorable than a decent adaptation of a mid manga.
>>284513712the storytime was gun
>>284515393>mid mangaYou take that back you bastard!
>>284513712the manga was mid to begin with, easily one of the weakest mizumaki worksnever understood the hype
>>284516295This is how I feel about Spirit Circle when I see people saying how much of a masterpiece it is.
I read manga for 30 years and Mizukami is such a mid mangaka
>>284515393>>284514647>>284514956SY anime was kind of trash though.
>>284518476gay
>>284513712animation wise, yes. It also cut some other stuff, but overall there are worse adaptations, like Berserk 16 or Tsukihime that also fuck up other stuff
>>284518535The manga is just that much better. The anime was directed by shitters
>>284519354gayfaggot
>>284513712The anime wasn't so bad honestly
