| I read the manga first and really liked it, so I watched the anime. The anime made me like it more. I think it does a really solid job, but I can see why it's intimidating. |

| I like the first season. but in the middle of second season, it went annoying and finally after watching 2 episodes of season 3rd, I dropped it. to wrap up, you can just watch 1st season to get familiar with manga' process. it's good to know how Mangakas make and write a manga. and after that decide to continue it or not. |

| Bakuman is under appreciated. A very solid story and great characters. It sounds like it could be boring but you’d be surprised. It’s one my favorite series of all time. |
"To Infinity and Beyond."  |
| I've rewatched the whole series a minimum of 8 times. It's one of those anime that just comforts you. The main plot is about the whole process creating and debuting as a mangaka, how much work it is, what can happen in the process, etc. The "main" sub plot is the road to get an Anime created out of that manga and how these discussions work. There is also a bit information of voice actors' training and auditions. The connected sub plot involves romance, which is actually the driving force for the whole plot. As already mentioned once in this thread, season 2 gets a bit boring and annoying. The interesting thing about that? It's intentional to show the hardships of mangaka and the business in and of itself. As everything that happens in the whole series are thing that have happened, are happening and will happen in the world of manga/anime. The anime is absolutely worth it and I think the mixture of different plots and also the sheer amount of information are absolutely worth it. The conclusion is also beautiful. Recently I've also watched Shirobako which is also absolutely fantastic in showing the process of anime. I absolutely recommend watching Bakuman and if interested Shirobako ☺ |
