As reported since before its premiere, the adaptation to the anime of “Sakamoto Days”He has been surrounded by a controversy related to the quality of his animation. And although the premiere finally served to silence some mouths, Comparisons with manga panels continue to appear after others, with the aim of demonstrating that production is not up to the original art.
This is how we arrive at the most recent controversy, where a user compared one of the most recent episode scenes of the series along with his panel of origin in the manga. Obviously the original panel is much more detailed, and offers many more details than the simplistic design of the scene in the anime. In fact, the user wrote: «Each epic panel is adapted so cheap. It is really difficult to defend this anime».

The criticism of “Sakamoto Days” have been a constant since before its premiere, because Fans regretted that production in TMS Entertainment decided to focus more on the SLILE-OF-LIFE aspect than in fighting, giving greater priority to the first. This resulted in an animation quality that does not quite convince the majority, perhaps more importantly more importantly in history.
In the end, this type of opinions are completely subjective, since you have to know the original work and have a previous knowledge in the industry to determine whether the quality of an anime is bad or good. However, “Sakamoto Days” is still the shopping this season for critics, especially because fans were selling it for months as “the one that would be the best winter-2025 anime.”
- «On the contrary, Dandadan did it quite well».
- «What is happening on the manga scene? When you use a sniper rifle with a bolt to expel the cap, you don't look through the sight, right?».
- «It is finished».
- «In addition, I think the manga should improve the way it draws the speed lines at the tip of the weapon. When you lift a weapon, the movement is circular, so the tip moves faster than the base. If these little details in the animation do not take care, they will never stop being third category».
- «It is absurd, it makes no sense. If you look by the sights at this short distance, you will not see anything. I would have to get away and shoot from the hip to get it. Is it a battle between fans or what?».
- «What are you supposed to show this manga scene? No one points with a sniper rifle at this distance using the sights. It should be a shot from the hip. Are you drawn without knowledge of weapons?».
- «The author of Sakamoto Days has no idea of weapons, right? If you don't even have that knowledge, no matter how good it draws, loses attractive».
- «Are fans of this manga the same type of rare people as Chainsaw Man fans?».
- «In general, a manga that is already drawn does not usually improve with anime».
- «That the only great Jump title is now One Piece is a sign of the decline».
- «In this manga, the only reason you talk about him is by Takamura».
- «The drawing of this author has no impact. He only knows how to make static images. It does not seem to understand how to represent the movement in the reader's mind. If you use this drawing style, you should clearly differentiate between moments of action and static moments».
- «The only strong point of this manga is drawing. If you take it off, there is nothing left».
- «Are there still mangakas that draw characters pointing with a single closed eye in the sight?».
- «With My Hero Academia and Jujutsu Kaisen finished, this is the manga they should be promoting».
- «They only had to copy the composition and poses of the manga, but they tried to put unnecessary originality and ruined it».
- «It is rare for the anime to have a quality lower than the manga».
- «The more I see it, the clearest I have it. They do not seem that they have thought about the movements before drawing them. They only made a static drawing and added speed lines later. That is why it has no impact. When something moves fast, the edges are distorted, as with the blur of a camera. They should have deformed arms and fingers to give it more speed sensation».
- «If you take away the quality of drawing to this work, what is left?».
- «The anime looks super cheap. I was surprised».
- «If Kimetsu no Yaiba had had an animation of this level, he would not have exploited in popularity. The Anime Lottery is afraid».
- «There are too many foreigners with the brain destroyed by Kimetsu and Jujutsu».
- «It's obvious, they left him in the hands of TMS Entertainment».
- «Was the manga like this? If so, normal that the anime is boring».
- «From Chainsaw Man, it seems that there are more people complaining that the anime is different from the manga. With Kimetsu and Jujutsu did not happen so much».
- «Sakamoto Days can be enjoyed in the manga thanks to the detailed drawing, but if the anime is cheap, highlight how loose the story is».
- «It is a manga that only stands out for its illustrations».
- «By the way, TMS is working on Dr. Stone, Ao No Hako and Sakamoto Days at the same time. It was obvious that at least one was going to resent».
- «Beyond animation, history is already boring».
- «In addition, the story reminds Gintama and other series too much. That feeling of Déjà vu discourages me. At least they could have changed Sakamoto's voice so that Gintama did not sound so much».
