Has there ever been a faithful 1:1 shot-for-shot anime adaptation of a manga?
Closest I can think of is JOJO

Pisuhame comes to mind.
Monster
Wasn’t Sailor Moon Crystal exactly that and people complained about it?
>females
>not always complaining about something
SMC changed shit like four episodes in by not having the generals die.
I don't know why more animes don't work like this. seems easier to just use manga panels as your keyframes/storyboard instead of making those things from scratch.
1:1 shot-for-shot replication is a really bad idea, animation and comic panels are different mediums.
Not even Jojo is like that you retard.
it literally is though
pure faithfullness is just another horrible extreme.
it´s usually just butthurt mangareaders who expect panelquality to match inbetween frames and the act smug.
jojo works kinda cause it´s paneling is static as fuck.
dbz is the other extreme with dynamic paneling.
in the end it´s Good filler > no filler > bad filler
>a faithful 1:1 shot-for-shot anime adaptation of a manga
that doesn't make for a good adaptation
it do
Are you sure about that?
No, and to strive for that is foolish. Illustration and animation are two different mediums with their own strengths and weaknesses. You can certainly reference iconography from the manga but it's important to use the strengths of film to properly translate the series to that different medium.
yea
Some are just not made for anime
The Jojo anime is far from a 1:1 shot-for-shot adaptation. The YKK OVA is like that though from what I remember. I generally don't think adaptations should strive to be that but I generally do want adherence to the manga because I think most people who work in anime aren't very good at it and any attempt to insert their own shit usually fails spectacularly. DP for instance with Jojo seems to go out of its way to be faithful in ways that are bad (and usually ends up fucking the scene to scene pacing) while removing things that they shouldn't. And the few times an adaptation is successful in straying from the source material isn't frequent enough that it should be the rule imo.
In general I'd prefer more original anime anyway than adaptations as then this wouldn't be a problem. But adapting stuff is generally safer.

As in they keep dialogue identical despite the difference between speech bubbles in a panel and actually needing to say the words. So you get shit like Josuke taking forever to drive across a hospital room while going 60 kph because he has to say all the lines to Koichi.
>Closest I can think of is JOJO
>Closest
Try double-checking what you read, because you're clearly slow enough that you need to.
this is why I'm excited for an eventual adaptation of either of fujimoto's big manga. The flow of his panels is just meant to be adapted to the screen

JOJO is supposed to have absurd moments like this anyways
It's not absurd it's annoying to watch and caused by a shitty adaptation. In general I feel like they talk really slowly in Jojo too. It's the only anime where I actually feel like I'm waiting for them to finish talking after reading the subtitles.
Mushishi is panel by panel faithful, it's so faithful that I see almost no reason to read the manga when you get the same thing with the anime but with music, colors and voice acting.
Aku no hana

How do you know that if you haven't read the manga? This is a typical animeonly post, talking about the quality of a manga they haven't read.
DP doesn't stand for double penetration but it seems like you welcome that anyway.
>gets outed for being a retard
>HURR DURR SEX N STUFF HURR HURR
Why do you assume I haven't read it? I actually read the manga first and watched the anime later. I also never said anything about the quality of the manga, just that the anime is 100% faithful.

Where?
The way your post was phrased made it seem like you hadn't read the manga.
it doesn't work because of how the action is paced in anime, versus manga. When you read something, you take in the information at your own pace. some people read fast, others slowly, and others will re-read passages over, before going to the next page.
same thing with manga, accept the artist can help slow things down by doing things like adding huge panels with lots of empty space to prompt the reader to sit and contemplate whatever emotion the character is feeling. they can put in super-detailed 2-page spreads that prompt the reader to sit and marvel at all the insane artwork. Blade of the Immortal is perfect for this. US cape comics, too.
anime is consumed at the exact speed and pace that the video is scrolling past your eyes. So, if a manga wants to do a really sad or dramatic scene, and post some empty panels for the reader to ruminate on, what is the anime going to do? just give the viewer a still frame to stare at? people will lose their fucking minds! Evangelion did this, twice, and it earned them no end of hate.
And how do you animate a 2 page spread, anyway? Marvel movies can barely figure this out, and that is a standard feature of cape comics. What do you do with manga that has crazy panel layouts? or manga that uses sound effects in its design? you notice that Jojo's constantly has onomotopoea floating in the background. Wolf Guy Ookami no Monshou goes one further and has massive kanji taking up nearly entire pages.
anime is anime, and manga is manga. slavishly copying one to the other just loses the awesome shit that makes anime anime.
you keep outing yourself, retard
