I had high expectatives on this one, since from what I have heard, this manga is funny as heck and this adaptation was about to be epic. I was expecting an animation pretty similar to like Saiki K since i heard it was J.C Staff, but somehow Netflix made this lame trailer where the animation is just stiff colored manga scans with low detail. Do you guys think this will change or it will be irredemely a bad adaptation?

Tell me if J.C.Staff at this point is STILL a joke.

Food Wars is one prime example, but that is more like the source material shitting itself further.

This one though...the manga is great, but the way J.C.Staff depicted it as a motion reel for a PV, welp. I'd guess mediocre anime are rife to meet their fate in Netflix after all (except Beastars, Great Pretender and few others).

As much as I liked it, this looks more like a fan-made thing than an actual adaptation.

It'd be a fun watch but I kinda expected more oof

I've seen some clips from one of the director's previous shows, Back Street Girls and it has similar animation. I wouldn't call it "cheap", it seems more like an artistic choice. If that's the case then I think it's kinda cool. Some people probably won't care for it but whatever. It's not the best, most groundbreaking animation I've seen but it's fine for what it is.

Well...this is disappointing. What's the point of making it an "anime" if it's just going to be a motion manga? Yeah, you can call it an "artistic choice" or whatever, but that doesn't mean it's somehow good. This looks very mediocre. Hopefully it actually looks better when it comes out, but now I'm not sure about getting my hopes up.
Don't question my antics.

Well I’m pretty disappointed that this isn’t a fully animated adaptation, but tbh I can live with it. Since this went with the motion-comic style, you’d think the still frames would at least look good, right? right??? I really hope the comedy and VA hits, because that’s all this adaptation has left in my eyes.

Feels like just their artistic choice in adapting it. It’s a comedy anime and looks like it’s trying to go for some motion gags like you’d see Gaikotsu Shotenin Honda-san. They may have wanted to focus more on art and other production needs they felt were more important instead of budgeting for the show to move how we’d see in other shows.

For one time, it's not J.C. Staff fault.

The producer of the anime ( probably a Netflix guy that doesn't understand anything about animes ) asked the show to look like this.

At first, I thought Netflix was a good thing for anime, but if they start to give orders about the animation...

Fucks sake, producer, Netflix or whoever made this artistic decision, you literally had the easiest AOTY ever on your hands and you fucked it up LMAO

This youtube comment sums it up pretty perfectly:

When we ask for a close adaptation of the manga, we don’t mean digitally scan each page of a copy you got from the library and show them to us one after the next


Animation aside, voice acting was 10/10 as expected so I'm still gonna watch it. But man I'n not gonna lie I'm kinda salty rn.

The animation is similar to a low budget hentai.

Some of the faces in the background look retarded.

Only gonna watch it if the length of the episodes is 10 min or something like that.

Haven't read the manga but I've heard of this series, It does look quite stiff and just like a colored manga with a powerpoint slide, but the most I could see with the average score is like a 7.5
I don't think it's JC.Staff's fault on this too much since anime they've produced such as A Certain Scientific Railgun have good animation, I think it's more of on the side of Netflix's budget they want to put into it like similar with Crunchyroll and Ex-arm.
But we never know until the first episode airs but it doesn't look so good

i don't know if it is allowed, but here is some clarification for this trailer :

"At the same time, trailers, key art, and scene cuts are also available. In the trailer, a "non-moving" production that is conscious of manga frame division is adopted, and Chiaki Kon, who is the director of the animation, said about this production "Make an animation like a manga from the producer!"

"Never move! Is the base, and it is difficult and difficult again ... It's easier to move it by drawing normally! There was also a scene like that, and there were a lot of hardships that I didn't usually have to do ... It was never an easy work (laughs). " Also, the original author said, "I felt that it was a method that matched the tempo that passed through the rage of the work. Various presentations and productions were included with limited materials, and the sense of speed of the gag I felt that it wasn't spoiled. Also, I think that the acting of the voice actor will be directly transmitted and I think I can enjoy it. "

that i translated it directly from the article which is in Japanese, so sorry if there are any mistake

I feel it pity, maybe because the manga just reached 1.2m so it’s not suitable to invest huge budget? Or it’s just another classic Netflix adaption.

No kidding, SDS's animation is masterpiece in front of this. Wait, is this even animation? the voice acting is going to carry the anime.

A new era has started with Ex-arm, now Gokushufudou, let's see what will be next.

There're off model characters, and the trailer is supposed to be best parts.
This animation is just a motion manga with downgrade in art.

Unfortunately that's just manga commercial. Real life action show doesn't have Kenjiro Tsuda and they added OC daugther.

It seems JC staff produced Netflix anime are either full CGI like Hi Score Girl or slideshows like Gokudols. Now I'm betting that Duke of Death and his Maid will be also shitflix exlusive.

At first i was afraid that this would be full CGI, but although it isn't i'm still kinda disappointed, the animation has room for big improvements.....

I'm still going to watch this for Kenjirou Tsuda!!!! If it wasn't for him voicing the MC, i probably wouldn't bother with this though.

Also, i'm sad to know that Kenjirou Tsuda doesn't actually play the MC in the live action adaptation..... :(

That trailer is missleading then!!! I might have skipped on the anime and just watched the live action instead if Kenjirou Tsuda was actually in it, but alas.... :(

Also that director is freaking retarded!!!! >_<

I actually would love to have seen a Live Action, from the promotional material made for the manga it would work, I think.

Well,I pretty sure it for artistic choice.j.c staff was one of the OG studio back then.the thing that I like about j.c staff is they always try something new either in the genre or the animation.but the problem is sometime this good thing is the one who gonna bite them back.thats why sometime,their anime is hit or miss.

J.C staff is so damn hit or miss that it’s hard to tell, really sucks if the animation looks as it does in the trailer because it looks like a pretty interesting weekly show. However it’s only the trailer and it didn’t move much so I’m not sure, just setting my expectations low for this
