Can I word take your word on this? 'Cause I was pretty stoked to watch it ever since I started watching and liking that new shamisen anime airing right now. I actually loved the Kono Oto Tomare adaptation. Although it's a bit rushed at times, it's really amazing. I'd suggest watching it yourself before deciding whether it is good or bad. |
Nirinbo said: exquisiteWig said: I'm watching it right now and the music is stunning! This person is talking nonsense or has broken tv or something... Do the koto performances last more than 5 seconds after episode 4? If that's the case, I admit I might have missed something The first performance is in episode 5. They only let us hear bits of the music pieces before giving us the actual performances every 4-6 episodes, which make them all the more memorable. |
| Studio Deen has managed to fuck up around 90% of it's adaptation somehow. It is difficult to actually find a good adaptation amongst their immense amount of failures. |

Mashiro no Oto has mid characters and plot, but the sound is amazing thanks to both the shamisen and the background music. Kono Oto Tomare! doesn't have a remarkable background music and I was left appalled by the first few koto performances getting cut after 5 seconds, and that's a shame because the koto seemed to have even more potential than the shamisen. I don't know if it will magically get better at some point, but quite a few people prefer the manga over the anime (see the scores), and that says a lot for a story about music. |

Luciyah said: while considered amazing by a lot of people, my hot take is that horimiya had a bad adaptation, and cloverworks only got away with it because horimiya is pretty episodic. i think the studio just missed out on so much character interactions, and really should've pushed for at least 24 episodes to get more content. agreed, as someone who is a huge fan of the manga, the anime skipped over so much leaving the anime with poor pacing and direction |

Unremarkable bgm and just one proper performance every 5 episodes is a huge letdown, compared to Mashiro no Oto's great bgm and at least one 1-2 mins performance per episode. I probably set way too high standards. Nonetheless, I'll try watching episode 5 later today, just to see if that one performance will be worth it. |

I'd recommend at least completing the first season (cuz it is THAT good), but I can't force people to, I guess. |

I read the manga enthusiastically when I finally got around to it, and years later when I rewatched the anime I was hit with the feeling of 'damn.. this is not nearly as good as I remembered the first time around'. They did Peach-Pit dirty. I simply never see anybody talking about the manga. But in reading anime reviews, I find many fans of the filler hating on Deen's more faithful adaptation. Someone on Crunchyroll even used over 100 alt accounts to downvote and review bomb Deen's anime, insulting Peach-Pitt all the while. https://www.crunchyroll.com/rozen-maiden-zurckspulen/reviews/helpful/page1 |

| from my personal experience it's Doujin Work, the manga is a comedy masterpiece filled with hard jokes and sexual humor, the art style is very good too, the anime though doesn't even adapt the jokes and it's making it feel bland and unfunny with their original ideas, the art style is very poor and it's barely animated |

Sry for the question, but are u two talking about that new Rozen Maiden version or the old one? ._.' I watched it some time ago (the 2004 ver), don't remember too much from it and wanted to either rewatch it or read the manga, and now I'm not sure if I shouldn't stay away from the anime or sth |

| The Promised Neverland S2 Berserk God of Highschool The following seasons of Tokyo Ghoul |
     |
| First few that come to mind are TPN Season 2 and Tokyo Ghoul |
| Knowledge on source material isn't required to know that Gokushfudou could have been better |

| Index S3, Promised Neverland, Tokyo Ghoul ? , iirc robotics note crammed 200 ln pages into the first episode, |
| "This emotion is mine alone. It is for Madoka alone." - Homura or how I would descripe Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. |
| Tokyo revengers is pretty bad not gonna lie |
Okok, manga seems like a better choice then. Thx <3 |
|
| The God of Highschool at least was made justice by having great animation, with it being an action packed story. The worst adaptations for me are those that start by giving hopes to the audience and then betraying it... soooo Tokyo Ghoul and Neverland come to mind. |

MegamiRem said: Most recent would be way of the household, can't even call that an anime tbh. ..it's exactly the manga tho, meaning the manga is 'kinda special. it's not the adaptation that has an issue here as the title of the post suggests |
| EZ, SDS season 3, I would add season 4 as well but I've seen only a few episodes, It's still terrible but I don't wanna say anything until I've watched the whole thing. The direction, animation, art, and the weird-ass censorship were God-awful, It's painful to even talk about it cause SDS was of my favorites. I don't think anything can top that. |

NextUniverse said: tpn s2 was bad lmao, I still need to finish it tho at this point is not even worth it unless you are really curious about how they f*cked it up. said this, it´s not the worst thing I have ever watched. |
| :v |
| The worst ever is rosario to vampire, they did a battle shounen into a parody adaption that's how much they fucked it up. Claymore, Umineko, Pandora Box and Tokyo Ghoul etc, is really bad adaptions too but not as bad as Rosario to vampire, Tokyo Ghoul Anime adapton looks like a masterpiece vs this vampire serie. |
 |
| Mekakucity Actors (adaptation of Kagerou Daze light novel) has to be the worst adaptation in anime history. Ruined characters, ruined original songs, skipped a lot of important chapters so plot holes in all the show, ending made no sense at all. I don't want to be that kind of guy but just read the manga and listen the songs in YT. Both are awesome. |

EndlessMaria said: As a hardcore Umineko fan, I will have to say Umineko. (...) Oh yes, I forgot about that piece. It was a huge dissapointment and I couldn't find the novel at that time I have watched it (2012 something). Also I want to add: Pandora Hearts Tsubasa Resevoir Chronicle Promised Neverland (though the manga gets bad too) Every shounen with to many fillers in it Tokyo Ghoul |
 |
| Bruh most of Visual Novel's anime adaptation sucked so hard. Aokana, Rewrite, Grisaia no kajitsu, Chaos;Child etc. |
| Neverland s2 and Tokyo Ghoul :re 2nd season. Both suffer from cutting off source material and glueing it together so it doesn't make sense, viewer has no idea who the characters are and where they come from, big time skips . In TG case there's also problem with Root A where it differs from source material but spin-off follows it so it's utter nonsense. |
 |
| Hmmm kinda a recent show but yaksoku no neverland season 2? |
| Index 3 turned some of the best arcs and fights into utter faudder. I should have gave it a 2, but Index always holds a soft spot in my heart. |

Also I'm not sure because I have yet to see it but I have heard Toaru Majutsu no Index season 3 is a bad adaption, so Toaru fans tell me if this is correct or not. Index 3 made me question if they wanted to make the show fail on purpose. |

EndlessMaria said: Phosphophyllita said: Aku no Hana's "ugly" or "bad" animation is coherent to the plot. Even the directing in that anime tries to make you feel uneasy all the time. I simply can't say that it's a bad adaption just because it won't follow the 2010s animation patterns. being ugly and not looking like every other anime are 2 vastly different concepts. Agreed. I started watching Aku no Hana in my early days of anime watching and it was very intriguing experience for me if I think now. I loved the art style, cause it was different. Though I couldn’t finish it twice because of that the story was getting into my nerve. |

| Index S3 and Tokyo Ghoul. They just belong in the trash. |
| Despite it being a decent anime by itself, the Umineko adaptation just doesn't work in the context of the VN. It would take way more effort to do a good anime of the VN than this. But as I said: if you do not read the VN, then it's still okay. With the VN it is a nightmare as it destroys any attempt of explanation of the murders. |
