There seem to be a lot of people who just don't know the difference between a good adaptation and bad adaptation. Many people seem to think that any change being made to the story, like moving the order of things around, cutting stuff out, changing plot elements, make a bad adaptation. That changes to the source material are inherently bad. They don't seem to realise that the point of an adaptation is literally to CHANGE the source material from a manga into an anime.

Adaptations are fundamentally about changing the source material into something else. To do that well and be successful 95% of the time there will need to be changes. A good adaptation is one that makes as many changes to the story as necessary to make the story work in the new medium. A bad adaptation is one that sticks too rigidly to the source material and fails to introduce anything new or omit anything from the story/situation and thus fails to work in the new format.

You will see all the time like with Boku Dake, the "secondaries" who don't read the manga will have thought that the episode was great and compelling, really interesting and be mostly positive about it. Then the manga fags will come along ad be like "its shit they made changes!" The "secondary" is able to enjoy the anime for what it is, an entertaining show, a successful adaptation, taking a manga and making it into an anime people like to watch. The manga reader has been blinded by his attachment to the way he thinks the story should be told because of the manga and has become obsessed with comparing changes rather than judging the anime as another way of telling the story in a different medium that as a result needs to be different to work.

I think an element of it is that people who read manga and post on /a/ like to shit on anime because it makes them feel superio. I mean the default position on pretty much everything on /a/ is "its shit", then if you are lucky people try to come up with a justification.

I haven't watched the episode yet (I've been following the manga), so I don't know about Boku Dake in specific, but a lot of the time it's just that the anime is worse than the manga while still being good or okay, so the people who didn't read it will obviously be more impressed.

The main complaint was "its rushed" because they got to the revival to his childhood by the end of the first episode to create a cliffhanger for the next one. As someone never having read the manga I got no impression of it being rushed at all, just seemed to keep a good pace and then come to an end that made you want to see more. Some of the manga readers on the other hand were mad about what was skipped to fit that in there. I can't see why you would be mad unless it was just for the fact there were changes seeing as from the perspective of someone with no knowledge of the manga it came off as working perfectly fine.

>>135849987
Again if it removed ninjas it would have been shorter with better pacing. Fucking ninjas god damn.

No not really.

Most of the replies are me and I did it because I'd think of a title after I posted, plus single titles in a post look better than some long list no one will read.

I don't even care to prove him wrong. Manga is hands down the better medium, this isn't even up for debate. But there are exceptions.

Why does it matter how the replies are as opposed to the content of the replies themselves? None of them had bait replies.

>>
>>135851662
I don't really care too much about the stories in anime, if I want a good story I would read a novel and do. All that leaves for manga is art. I can appreciate some of the art is really well done but that really isn't much to keep your interest as compared to anime. There is so much visual diversity there, in terms of direction, editing, storyboarding, post-production, animation styles and techniques, colouring, digital effects. All manga has is just the storyboarding part really. Then anime also has the OST and VAs which while less important to me give another point of interest.
>>
>>135851968
>I don't really care too much about the stories in anime
I can't even argue with you because this is so silly. You're basically saying you don't care about the content of a series at all, you just like animation.

I was merely responding to a guy that said manga is the better medium and that is the only valid opinion. From my perspective manga doesn't really offer me much, anime is the better medium. It is really subjective to what you want to get out of it. People who try to act superior because they read or have read some manga are generally stuck in meme thought patterns.
>>
>>135852417
Yeah but you're not really enjoying anime or manga for what they are, story telling mediums. You're just watching for your animation boner.

The only reason someone would say one is better than the other is for storytelling. Obviously other factors come in such as how good the art is, and how anime can use music or sounds, but it all comes back to storytelling.

They're completely fucking retards, that's why. /a/ doesn't give a rat's ass about the source material, they've got no respect for it in the slightest. They just need that epic internet e-cred.
>>
>>135852493
Don't get me wrong here. When I was referring to stories earlier, I was talking the actual story, the plot and such. Not all the elements used to tell that story. It isn't solely about the animation. I mean I got into animation through watching international cinema rather than because I saw some picture of Kirino on /sp/ and thought it looked cute. The most fascinating thing about anime and animation generally is the amount of diversity it allows for in visual expression. The "camera" can do anything even the impossible. You can use colour however you want, frame your shot from somewhere you could never really achieve and so on.
>>
>>135852610
Depends, really. The anime is ponderously slow.
I for one prefer that and for me it's a big point of charm, but I hear equal measures of people criticizing the pacing since a chapter is always spread to one full episode, save for the specials.

>The "camera" can do anything even the impossible. You can use colour however you want, frame your shot from somewhere you could never really achieve and so on.
These can be done in manga as well. Art in general has tons of impossibilities.

>>135849892
Change isn't inherently bad, but extensive changes are generally disappointing for manga fans who were excited to see their favorite series animated, especially if those changes don't really improve anything. Just because they changed something doesn't necessarily mean the change was a good idea
>>
>>135852921
What I am trying to say is that while I don't really often find the stories hugely compelling, original or insightful, I do enjoy seeing how they are told and the techniques used to tell them. I don't watch anime for the stories themselves mostly, rather for the way the story is told and there are so many more options in how to tell the story in anime than manga so much more to be interested in.

I'm not saying it is necessarily a good idea, manga fans do tend to be biased towards thinking it was a bad idea though just because it isn't like the manga they fell in love with. They feel betrayed almost. They get blinded by that and fail to consider the wider picture quite often I think.

Gakkou gurashi was a shit adaption.

But anime are mostly regurgitating source material, they aren't telling the stories in unique ways most the time. Or they have original endings which are god awful.

There are very few that actually use all anime has to offer to tell a story. Like all the hidden stuff that happens in Hyouka. Even though it was an adaption, it actually used the animation to tell the story in a way the source material never could have.

Problem is 99% of anime don't do this.

This is a bit silly statement. Different formats and mediums have their own strengths on accomplishing interesting storytelling.

sometimes it looks like we're being overly harsh, but bokumachi was fine for the most part. but once you see a scene that is worse than the source it's "worse than i expected" and it becomes very noticeable.

There ten to be 2 or 3 shows that are really good at it a year, then maybe 10 or so that are competent but I agree most anime is shit. A lot of the time it is obvious the director and storyboarder have put little thought into why they show you what they show you in the way they choose to show it. They are literally just showing you what is happening. It is disappointing when that is the case but you can usually spot the series that will be like that a mile off and paying attention to things like staff, following directors you like, rather than studio usually really helps weed those out before wasting time on them. Things with odd art styles are often worth a try too, to have an art style that is far away from the mainstream you would have had to thought about the visual presentation in at least some way.

Manga is able to do internal monologues which generally explain much more about a character and what they're thinking. Internal monologues don't work nearly as well in anime.

And since anime mostly adapts manga or LNs, they wont add new things to expand the characters as a person. Usually.
Sure, different formats and mediums have their own strengths, but are you going to tell me novels aren't the best storytelling format?

Now if we're talking about if all mediums had an unlimited budget, anime would be superior hands down. It'd be able to tell the full story without pacing issues or never getting another season. It'd have pristine animation, music, sounds, etc. Sadly we're not talking "what if".

I was really surprised about how well Prison School was adapted. They did really well with the story boarding and direction. I don't normally care about scene transitions or direction in anime but it was good in that aspect.

But I can see your point and definitely understand where you're coming from here.

Objectively looking at composing narrative in general and encompassing everything, sure, novel is a lot of the time the best format because it is "easy" to form.
Visual mediums are trickier because they require partly the same kind of writing you'd do for a book and partly an entirely different approach which is "how do I incorporate the visual aspect to tell the story as well".
World has a history of some 100+ years of cinema to prove it works if a competent artist does it, just like a novel works if a competent artist writes it.
Just because most of anime is adapted from something, or is vapid, or not artistically meaningful in some way, doesn't mean something substantial cannot come out of it.
In my opinion this doesn't make any format inherently superior to others.

>But I find manga to be the superior storytelling format.
I don't understand this view. Why is manga a better format? I like manga, and I used to think the same as you, until I actually started watching anime.
Don't get me wrong, I like manga a lot, and I've read some great manga, but I prefer the experience of anime. It has an immersive quality that manga lacks. And manga is one of the most limited formats there are. It has a lot of potential, like any medium, but most manga are written as if they were anime storyboards. And it's not a novel, it's panels with a sentence or two of text at most. It doesn't have extensive depth or nuance that's necessarily lost by converting it to anime. Of course things are lost, but that's true for any adaption, and not specifically because manga is a superior storytelling format.

Manga also takes a lot more work on the reader's part to really get the best of, in my experience. In say, an anime or any sort of film-like medium, you just watch the action, a book has pages and pages of text to draw you in. These things immerse the reader naturally. A manga is just a few words and still images, and in order to really appreciate a manga you have to read slowly and really use your imagination to bring it to life in your mind. A lot of manga readers fall into the trap of reading too quickly and skimming. I personally find this enjoyable, but I think complaints about this aspect are understandable.

Anime doesn't have to have perfectly pristine audios. visuals, stories and pacing to be a stronger medium to me. Manga doesn't reach this level of perfection either. When you say manga is superior, do you mean only manga adaptions, or originals too? Do you think manga adaptions of original anime are better than the source material? Either way, I don't understand why manga would be inherently a better medium.

People actually read manga first? I watched anime and got in to manga way after, because I didn't like reading.

Once I started reading books I started reading manga.

I think this is why I find it difficult to enjoy manga thinking about it. I am one of the guys posting that prefers anime and even when I love the art style, the art and story of a manga and have no real criticism of it I end up just losing interest and giving up. I have tried reading all the works that are recognized as masterpieces of the medium pretty much and I could appreciate why they were, they just never capture my interest long enough to keep me going back to actually finish them.

I got into manga first because I was a lazy shit and you can read a manga faster than you can watch an anime. Eventually I watched an adaption of one of my favorites and got hooked. I still read manga sometimes, but not nearly as much as I used to.

Most the time, god no. Manga adaptions are usually terrible and never adapt more than 1% of the source material.
In this respect, I'd say manga adaptions are generally way worse than anime adaptions. I'm not saying anime adaptions are bad, because that's literally all anime is anymore. It's just that they never do anything special with it being an anime.
The only one I can truly think of doing something special is Hyouka. I know there are others I just can't think of them.

I find manga better simply because of the constraints anime has. Budget being the source of all wrongdoings. But the worst is half the shit that gets adapted will never get another season and therefor never get an ending.
Yes, manga suffers from cancellations as well, but at least it ends for everyone. If you only watch anime you'll have a much larger handful of unfinished series.

A true patrician will read manga that doesn't have anime, and watch anime then read manga for more. Or if the anime adaption is poor just reading the manga instead. I may find manga to be more enjoyable, but I also like anime. I'll never understand people who only watch/read one or the other.

I developed into reading manga, meaning I gradually came to appreciate art, composition, panelling etc. the more I read.
Additionally you sort of learn a "correct" way to read as you go, so to speak.
Go through quickly the bits where attention to detail is minimal, as it doesn't require thorough inspection since there is nothing much to look at anyway, and linger a while on the details when they do appear and/or when the scene warrants it.
I have a friend whom I've seen reading and he just glances over the most gorgeous of pages and spreads, moving almost instantly onwards since there is little or no text there.
