Spriggan

Easily one of the best anime's Netflix has put out, you can definitely tell this was a well funded project. A large majority of Netflix's anime series lose my interest with a couple of episodes, but this kept me captivated throughout the series. The action scenes are amazing and the amount of gore brought me back to 80's anime vibes. If you are a fan any shonen jump, this is definitely on par with them. I really hope Netflix continues this series because they put out so many forgettable series just for content and this is actually one that they put the effort and funds into. Honestly it's probably my favorite on Netflix.

I think it was well animated, the main characters strength varries depending on who is opponent is for some reason. Introduction into different characters are almost to none. I had no idea a movie existed after some research and I have not watched it yet. Series, lore and everything had alot of potential.

The original Spriggan (1989) is my favourite anime. This new remake is a good series although it deviates from the film slightly.

The series has removed the seriousness of the original film. The main character is now happy and very confident compared to reserved and tormented.

Episode two is a retelling of the original film.

They included a heap of cliché anime tropes that did not exist in the original film such as:

• The loud, angry anime girl
• Calling out kicks and punches like a Pokemon ability
• Having characters explain plot instead of showing the audience

Pros:

• Some great moments faithful to the original film
• Great action scenes with violence and mature themes
• Way better than 90% of Netflix anime shows

Cons:

• A few episodes are terrible
• Poor dialogue writing
• Weird 3d models for monsters shot in a completely different frame rate as the series.

Never heard of the original manga or the movie, I saw this is in my spotlight so I decided to check it out and It's actually pretty good. It's a little predictable at times and sometimes I wish the characters weren't giving speeches every 10 mins, but the plot is interesting, animation is good, voice acting is amazing and I like the soundtrack. Also, It's deals with a lot of themes and philosophies in each episode, which I think is one of the more interesting parts of the series.

You should check it out.

I watched this because I read one of the manga's episodes. It's good and I also like it because it is short. But in one time I also feel it's like old anime or feel like release not to the right time. But overall I like the story.
