CATDOLL: Netizens are discussing what must-haves in a successful anime adaptation of Fullmetal Alchemist

Although there are many original works in Japanese animation, most of them are adapted from comics or light novels. Generally speaking, most adapted animations will follow the plot settings of the original works, but there are also many "magic adaptation" animations. These animations have almost nothing to do with the original works except for the characters, but some magic adaptation animations are popular because of the successful new plot design. So which magic adaptation animations are more successful? Recently, some Japanese netizens have started a discussion on this.

Netizen’s opinion: I think the most important thing when watching an animation is the freshness of the unpredictable plot. Therefore, many works adapted from the original comics and novels do not seem to have that kind of excitement. However, I have recently seen some animations with completely different plots from the originals, such as "Dream Eater Marie". It seems that this is also very interesting. What else can you recommend?

Netizen's opinion: The more classic one should be "Shokurei Zero", right? When I watched the first episode, I was confused, but later I found out that it was a prequel based on the original manga. But compared to the original work, which was almost ignored, the prequel after the magic change is more interesting. Now this work is a well-deserved classic in my mind. In addition, from the perspective of failure, "Rewrite" can also be regarded as this kind of work.

Netizens’ opinions: There are many. Many years ago, there was a theatrical version of "AIR", but it turned out to be a piece of crap. Fortunately, the TV animation version of Kyoto Animation later saved its reputation. In addition, there were a lot of original plots in "Yu-Gi-Oh", right? The quality of the adaptation was pretty good, and I followed it to the end. What about other works? It seems that the plot of "Three Sisters of the Southern Family" in the later animation was different from the original? I haven't watched it for a long time, so I can't remember.

Netizens’ opinions: I don’t remember any successful works in this regard, but if I talk about a badly modified work, it must be “Bear Witch”. It seems that it has been modified since the 9th episode, and then it has such a miserable ending. Sometimes I really don’t know what the animation producers are thinking. In addition, Kyoto Animation’s “Unlimited Colors of Phantom World” is also messing around. A good fantasy doomsday work has been turned into a superpower daily life. Does Kyoto Animation still think that as long as it can sell meat, it will be a big hit?

Netizens' opinions: Speaking of Kyoto Animation's works, "Chuunibyou ga Koi ga Shirai" and "Free" can be considered as magical changes. But from the perspective of word of mouth, they are still very good. As for "Phantom World: Unlimited Colors", I personally still don't understand why such an animation was made. Did Kyoto Animation have a brain injury?

Netizen's opinion: No one nominated the original "Fullmetal Alchemist"? This is perhaps the only work so far whose animation plot is as good as the manga.
