To all the Manga Readers, is this show a poor adaptation of the manga. Or is the manga's score inflated as compared to the s1 of anime. Or does the manga get much better afterwards.

I haven't watched the show so no spoilers please. Just curious regarding the manga and anime scores.

No, it's good

There's some stiff animation here and there but it doesn't matter since 90% of the series is dialogues

Also yes, there's so many dialogues that are shown on screen but there's no other way to adapt these scenes, they work better in manga form because it's just reading, however while watching the anime you find yourself pausing Every 5 mins or so to read some dialogues and such

Anime adaptation is really good,dont let difference in the ratings confuse you..

But the main arcs of the manga begin right after the anime ends

I would even reccomend watching the anime first before the manga

good adaptation, its just that manga works better for stories like this imo, there is a lot of internal monolouges and its hard to adapt those without making it look weird

Yes, this adaptation could have been handled better.
It's not the worst adaptation out there but definitely a bad one imo.
It couldn't convey the true feeling and atmosphere of the manga.
If you liked the anime definitely give chance to the manga, I guarantee you'll like it much more than the anime.
Also I would like to add, No, manga's score is not exaggerated.It deserves it's current score rn.
Anime has only scratched the surface of the story, it's just keeps getting better and better with each arc in the manga.

Remember what Master Oogway told us:

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the present.

The adaptation wasn't something you can call bad but it lacked something, it lacked the vibe the manga gave off , Yet it's not bad ,not too good either , it could have been better . Definately worth watching and the manga is obviously better .

The adaptation wasn't bad, i enjoyed the anime. But you see.... there are some mangas that can't be adapted into a good anime.... the story is awesome!!!!! and characters are great especially the mc and the drawing of the manga gives a lot of different vibes and is addictive, but these feelings couldn't be adapted in an anime. I would say these kind of things can only be adapted in mangas. If you take this anime as an individual like an anime original then this anime is great and was really fun to watch and watching this weekly was a pain as waiting for the next episode was really painful, they always were cliffhangers. But if you compare it with the manga then manga is a lot better and expresses emotions way better. As an individual anime it's awesome but as a manga adaptation it lacked at places. I would recommend to watch the anime first then read the manga from the beginning (or maybe from chapter 25 if you don't want to repeat it, but reading from beggining after watching is what I would like to recommend). Hope this was helpful.
Have a good day!!😁✌️

The adaptation wasn't something you would call bad. But it felt like something was missing. So yeah, it was good. But could've been a bit better.People think it doesn't give the manga vibe. As a manga reader myself I'd say the best parts are yet to come. That's why people might feel it's poorly adapted. But if it gets a S2 then we'll know.

Imo , the adaptation is inconsistent in terms of art , manga is definitely better in that department , other than that , I digged the direction , the soundtracks and let's not forget the voice acting , I had a very good time with it

manga ratings are always gradually higher in most of the case

and I don't feel it was a POOR adaptation cause

1. The manga is STRETCHED but anime adaptation takes care of it

2. Art of manga and anime is almost similar

3. You can enjoy the TENSE situation best in anime

hope I have gave you the CLARITY

It's a pretty good adaptation actually. The source material just isn't very good.

the adaptation is good and enjoyable.
only flaws are that there were some skipped panels, and the art wasn't as good.
but it's still enjoyable.
the difference in ratings are most likely just because the manga gets better and better so the rating keeps increasing.

I’m so tempted to read the manga too, but if this ends up getting another season, this is one of those anime where the manga would spoil watching the anime.

It was a solid adaptation, I would just say the best part of the story comes in the arcs after where the anime first season ended. So yes it gets way better
