| Switching directors halfway through seems kind of odd, especially considering they announced they will before the broadcast starts |
 _______I like rocks__  |
| Good thing we'll have a full manga adaptation. |
 |
| huh, i guess i'm going to watch the anime before reading the manga |
| Here’s to hoping this’ll make for another entertaining ride, like Death Note. I’m not quite sure how I feel about the directors’ changing midway though but hopefully that’s not marking a flop already. |

| Surely if they’re changing directors halfway then there will be many differences between the first and second halves, making it very inconsistent. I wouldn’t mind it if at least one of them was experienced with directing, but the first guy has only ever directed JJBA part 5 which although has a good reputation, is only one project so he lacks experience and the other hasn’t directed a single noteworthy anime. |
FurySlasher said: The Jojo director also directed Fukumenkei Noise, Keijo, and an OVA no one cares. So no, he does have experiences. Frankly, the other guy has less experience in the director's chair than him lmao.Surely if they’re changing directors halfway then there will be many differences between the first and second halves, making it very inconsistent.

Ah I see, my bad. Either way, considering the bad reputation the manga has (haven’t personally read it) you woulda thought they’d need very talented staff members to pull off a decent adaptation. I’m not tryna say that the current staff are bad by any means, cos theres always a chance they could create a great adaptation, but they’re getting thrown in the deep end with such weak source material, considering their lack of experience (even partially the guy that did jjba, cos the other 2 works don’t seem to be mainstream and got pretty low scores here). |

| oh my, I saw a glimpse of the 48 you know what, should look glorious in animation. I dropped the manga but I'll watch the anime to bitch and moan on the forums :)) can't wait for M |

Its good thing to hear. |
|
| Wow 24 ep? I can see they're going all out adapt the entire volume. Since this manga only has 2 arcs. Also the last volume basically includes 2 endings, a happy ending and bad ending. I wonder if they're gonna pick one of those. |
| I love Obata, but I'm scared to read the manga. Maybe I should check the show out? |
