Saiki Kusuo no sai-nan

I have seen many live-action so I think this movie is good if you compare it to others. I mean the purpose of this movie is to be a comedy, maybe it has some details that are good in the comic and anime but not good outside. The quality of the jokes is medium. The crew only has 1 hour so I think it is okay, and I think they have tried their best to follow the original with some of the creative so 1 more point for that. I have seen several live-action changes the story so much that I can not even recognize the story.

If you a fan of the manga or the anime please do yourself a favor that is save your time and money and not spent it on watching this load of hot turd cause watching this movie is like watching an extremely talkative Kusuo who hate coffee jelly to the guts or a boring ass Nendou or a so over the top version of Teruhashi to the point that it make the anime counterpart of her seem bearable and if all of that not a big middle finger from the director Yuichi Fukuda who I highly praised for the excellent job at adapting Gintama into live action movie to the source material and the fan then I don't know what else.

This would top them. This movie is absolutely beautiful. It fully encaptures the awkwardness of the anime, and shows each characters personality incredibly well. It would get ten stars, if they didnt miss out on an absolute fantastic opportunity for an ending line. The last scene should have been kusuo saying yare yare.

First I'd like to say I love the Saiki K anime! I fully know that any live adpation of an anime or cartoon show can be a hit or bust. This was a bust. 👎

I was so excited to watch this film even though I could tell from trailer it probably wasn't going to be faithful to the anime or manga. They weren't faithful to the characters, or storyline. It was like they crammed 10 episodes into one movie that takes place in one setting. They made the main characters act in ways they normally wouldn't, and combined traits/ personalities other characters have into one person. Without sharing spoilers I will say Teruhashi, Nendo, Hairo, and Kuboyasu are not represented in the best light. Kusuo and Kaido are pretty much the same but at the same time they aren't. Kusuo is completely dead pan and Kaido exhibits no embarrassment from his dillusions like he normally would in the anime.

I'm not going to say not to watch it because if your a fan curiosity will get the best of you. But honestly you aren't missing anything.

Teruhashi : too many hand movements, lacks the usual confidence anime Teruhashi has, but narcissism is still intact - just plain irritating.. seems r----ded.. will make you say "stfu fake Teruhashi" Aren : moves like a worm who've just been sprinkled with salt Nendo: good resemblance, just wish he's way taller Kaido: his weird movements would have worked if the camera was closer and was following him along, but it's awkwardly far and he's just moving around inside the shot

Went over the top on things that could've been subtle, did not go crazy enough with this that should have been over the top. Would have worked with better direction.

Kasuo's dad is on point though.
