Maybe its uber attention to detail and wanted to have it feel anime dub-y, where the dialog and the lip flaps don't quite line up?

Or it could just be the trailer.

I may not be knowledgeable about the comic nor have I seen the live-action movie (even though I really, REALLY wanna), but I'm really excited to see this!

From what has been said about the show on the panel will this not just be a straight-forward adaptation of the comics, but there will be quite a bit of new content to make it a fresh experiance for fans.

That makes sense, the movie and the video game were the same way.

[up] (3) The movie is probably on Netflix or Hulu. I'd definitely recommend it if you have those. The comic can be found online or probably on Amazon. It can be a bit of a slog if you read it online for the first two volumes, but it ramps up.

I'm just happy the stuff the movie adapted out has a chance to appear in this one. I think they even took that shot of Scott and Ramona leaping into a kiss from the games. The music is from Amanaguchi who IIRC did the music for the games as well.

  • They took the panels/story of the comic
  • Added the actors from the film
  • And have the music and references to the games

Its a beautiful crossover of different elements from each previous medium this work has been in.

Netflix released the Opening credits for a first look. It's very anime.

Made a recap page and a few… non-spoilery adjustments to the image caption and description of the show. A character page for these versions of the characters might be a good idea too.

Remember when we were speculating that this would be a more accurate adaptation of the movie?

Finished it. Funny story: yesterday i was in a forum discussing the movie, and something that got brought up was that movie Ramona is barely a character. Then this adaptation gets made grin

I really liked it. It's basically a 'what if' sequel to the movie. It might have been nice to see a faithful adaptation but this actually made me like the evil exes; charcaters who I never really cared about in the graphic novels. Other characters like Young Neil and Julie are also great here. Plus it's just fun to see the cast in different scenarios. This adaptation works because the cast of the graphic novels/movie are the best part of Scott Pilgrim.

Okay, the next person who updates the page needs to add a spoiler warning at the top of this page. Otherwise, it will be a page full of spoiler tags.

[up]I just really, genuinely hate that kind of stuff.

It's at the point where I consider it a part of hack writing.
