the breakdown was very emotional in the manga. They left out the whole kappa part -which would have been okay if they needed to shorten the episodes- but again. The same goes for the scene at the riverbank where he has a breakdown. 1-2 seconds more showing Ashiya's anguish and fear would have been welcome here. While the scene did exist in the anime, it felt rushed. In the manga Ahiya is still very traumatized and is shaking.He reaches out to Fuzzy but at the last second hesitates and drops his hand again,fearful to touch the yokai.
Meant to help keep the episode length but I feel like they should have rather lengthened those 1-2 scenes and shortened other scenes that showed scenery etc.Įxample: When Ashiya had been attacked by the Executive and then remained alone in the room while waiting for Abeno to return, Fuzzy runs to him and tries to cuddle. They left out some manga chapters entirely, took away from scenes that were very emotional in the manga but were only so-so/had less impact in the anime. I'm also reading the manga and I felt a bit shortchanged at some points throughout the season. I'm stuck somewhere between 6 (fair) and 8 (very good) because I guess that without the manga comparison, it might be better.
My review is more or less a comparison of the anime and manga and describes why I'm not happy with what they did with this adaptation.
