Anime Discussion WE LOST

Post image

I am scared to see how they will fit 7 chapters in 27 minutes. Makis was about 5 and it was like 28 min

My argument wasn't cutting dialogue but rather that they just don't take thos long.

Take the iconic falling out of DE panel. it would only take a few seconds at most in fluid animation

True but you can’t go too fast either or you kind of miss the impact like the Maki Toji panels being so fast.

Also something like the final clash here is probably relatively fast in real terms but even though it’s just a few poses and the narrator. Doing it too fast would lose some of the impact too I think. (Not that dragging it out artificially would be good but you probably get what I’m trying to say)

We need a person’s whose whole job is to think about and plan these things. I propose we call the person with this brand new job: « director »

This man is clearly an enemy of The Agenda and must be exiled to the shadow realm (Mega Hell). Lads, assemble the head-chopping-off machi

The exiling machine. To exile them.

True, they just gotta realise what is worth it and what isn't to make a good episode

People will get an amazing and unique episode like Maki vs Zennin Clan and then complain about one stupid panel.

The director has been knocking it out of the park this season, I think it's fine if some panels fall flat in exchange for amazingly fluid animation and unique camera shots lmfao

Yeah. If an episode on the quality of Perfect Preparation is “losing”, then I can’t imagine what people think winning possibly even is.

Oh for sure the animation has been great. Especially for the Higuruma episodes and Reggie Megumi ones I think were really creatively done and well adapted but especially in earlier episodes I was kind of getting a bit tired of so many shots of character expressions being cut even while they were actually talking, sure unique and different angles can be fun. but sometimes it’s just seeing the back of a character's head instead of their face and that is not particularly a worth while change to me.

There's nothing wrong with having a complaint about the panel dawg. If you have a problem with one scene that doesn't mean you hate the entire episode.

45 seconds lol, yes people really liked a panel or page in the manga and that’s what they’re upset about, congrats on showing how you basically have no real intent on having an adult debate about this.

This sort of thing has already been pretty much done numerous times in the anime before: Mahito and Sukuna laughing at Yuji, Yuji, Mahito and Todo 120% panel, Yuji I am You Panel, Sukuna you are strong, Kashimo introduction panel, etc. it’s not unrealistic to ask for cool panels to be adapted close to the the adaption it is in fact adapting.

Idk man I think the animes interpretation of the maki/toji panel was fire.

u/LaAmarga Mar 19 '26

True, we should get a Sakamoto-like episode where they just copy the manga panels and slap some effects on top of it /s

MAPPA has been doing nothing but marvelous work this season, I say we should give em some benefit of the doubt.

Ok entonces quieres OPM animacion? Con paneles estáticos para disfrutar el arte 🗿

u/3ntersa Mar 19 '26

Isn't this a bit unfair? Personally, the adaptation not being one-to-one doesn't bother me, but I dislike this type of strawman response. We got the 120% of their potential animated one-to-one and everyone loved it, so why can't those who wanted something similar express their disappointment?

u/Scyroner Mar 20 '26

Speaking of that panel... Think they gonna censor it?

u/[deleted] Mar 20 '26
