[dropsmegamega]

And hey, if they Fuck over the Remake, not like the Original isn't Still here. Don't Like the Remake? Don't Watch it.

well I am sure af not watching it but uh this is a forum for sharing our opinions and whatnot so I don't get why so many people love to repeat things like this. its not like we are going to bomb the studios that made it.....................

Fully agree with this mindset
“Don’t like it don’t watch it” isn’t quite applicable in this particular thread, by concept alone.

I’m also still of the opinion we should generally be more critical of recreations of culturally relevant works, as it invites necessary discussion about preservation and the way to go on about it.

Now i personally believe that, in an ideal world, we need both the remake and the default version be side by side. Preferably with the OG being a remaster if it’s doable.

I, for one, do not inherently object to a remake as a concept at all. It’s heavily tainted by modern technology as well as modern standards and malicious nostalgia baiting but in a perfect world, no one should really object to remakes as a concept.

There’s merit to having revisions of an old work so long as it’s not made with the idea to replace original works which is sadly what’s done here more often than that.

I can’t speak for remakes that existed before 2010s, but some did get made out of necessity, and not out of disregard to the originals.

that said even with a modern world, good remakes can theoretically still exist but there’s sadly a lot of uhhhh, this will be worded awkwardly on purpose, but “bad examples of good examples”. In layman terms, I see people use RE2 remake as a good example of a remake when in my opinion all RE remakes are kinda trash turn off your brain entertainment. RE5 remake Will seriously neee to do something crazy.

Ignore the ramble. Only the first paragraph was a response to your message but I didn’t feel the need to segregate the message…. Sorry.

It follows more to the manga. But unlike the original, it has no soul. The quality of the animation took a massive dump, and most importantly, the phenomenal music by Kenji Kawai isn't there. That opening music was just horrendous. But if I have to give a positive, the action scenes are definitely better than the original.

it doesn't look bad but that's about the only thing it has going for it. we really don't need it because the original exists and is far superior to the remake. also I'm sure because its animated by mappa it will eventually have some major issues with production.

I didn't even knew about the original before I started watching the remake.

Has good animation, it's pretty and it's fun in my opinion. I like the romantic tension moments here and there.

And if I knew it had those ecchi scenes beforehand I wouldn't had tried to watch it on a bus.

Not bad but what´s the point I just go watch the original again. I like how they did with Robotech when they made the robotech protoculture collection basically the original show just with some slight improvements.

And with out dirty they did Trigun and on the fence watching because I don´t want to see what I love turned in to trash like Trigun was. Yeeesh still makes me pissed remember how they turned Vash to some fucking teen boy with emo side cuts honestly the art style was horrbile and I like new anime but don´t shit on old anime thank you.

I enjoy it so far. Can't say much about animation because honestly I'm not overly critical when it comes to graphics, its fine as long as it is enjoyable and doesn't hurt my eye, even if they wanted to make it look like Ninja Slayer (I love Ninja Slayer), go for it.

I like how they try to retain almost all of the original voice actors except for those who already passed away but I still prefer the original, along with the music.

Not fan of how it looks, Ranma sounds annoying, but I like that it's different from the OG anime.
