Never expect a movie, I don't think it's enough.

I've never read the Manga yet, but a 2-Part Movie is clearly not enough to adapt 100 chapters, right?
... Is there any clarification whether that's the final product, or is it a 2-Part to begin with for the first year, to then wait on sales to potentially do other parts?...

Like, I guess 2-Parts would be the first quarter, if not first third.
Then they could do another 2-part to finish the adaptation.

Instead of rushing it all into 2 Movies only.
That'd be awful. What a waste. Stupid new cheap money grab studio.

Awful way to kill all hype with 2 movies intead of a 2-cour anime series. What´s next? full CGI?

2 movies isn't enough to cover a 12 volumes manga. This will be rushed and/or content skip to fit the movie format. This should have been a TV series, period.

With this news, I'm not that excited anymore about this project to be honest.

Great staff but they could have chosen better director.

Why movie format though? I wanted and was expecting a single cour season at the very least for this.

two movies?? mmh… not too sure about this. Was kinda hoping for a full TV series tbh… and two movies aren’t nearly enough to cover whatever happens in the manga.

a movie means a longer wait sigh but if it means better quality, then bring it. excited to see ontan animated, hanyanyafuwah!

I think it's good that it's going to be adapted as a movie. The manga is insanely detailed. You'll need a movie-sized budget to animate all this shit.

Let's hope they finish the movie before all the artists get carpal tunnel syndrome 🙏.
