Fallout and One Piece set the bar, Now I am just looking at The Witcher and crying

I don’t know about Fallout, man…

How can that be?
A nepo baby that don’t have a clue about the source material (or actively dislike it) can’t make a fanfic that will actually please the people that made the source material popular in the first place?
Impossible.

A main difference with OP is Oda has the final say in all decisions. Netflix is locked into a contract where they’re legitimately not ALLOWED to decide story changes without his “ok”
Not many people have that type of influence to get that type of agreementÂ

Add AKOTSK to the list.

I was really sceptical about one piece and yes it is different and somewhat cringe, but they did a damn fine job transfering this bizzare manga/anime to la. And I love how everyone involved are giving their all.

To the neckbeards in the comments ripping on Fallout. Bro it’s 6-7 games worth of material. Literally a thousand hours of playtime. Also the games involve a lot of choices that make portraying a clear cannon difficult. For an 8 episode season TV show- it’s doing a pretty damn good job.Â
Im personally shocked Bezos is allowing a show like it to air on his platform. Especially considering just how far the show runners have leaned into the anti corporatist messaging that was big in the games, only to make it even bigger for the show.Â

There are plenty of fans complaining about One Piece.

The book “the fall of reach” was an excellent starting point for a halo season or 2

What they did with resident evil was maybe the biggest pos I’ve watched.

Stream platform CEO: “Please don’t engage with the source material. No, it’s not because we want to believe that we’re inherently better and more mature than people who enjoy those other mediums and are deeply insecure that their industries rival or even surpass our own in terms of revenue.”

Paramount wiped their ass with Halo.

One piece did not follow the source fully tho

I wanna also put up there A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms! I read the book after watching the first season and for the most part it’s pretty spot on! Hoping they can keep the quality for seasons going forward

The Fallout show is okay mostly went with Bethesda aesthetic and writing while using all the lore the previous studio worked hard to construct.

Don’t say that to New Vegas fans

Hollywood can somehow make a proper adaptation for the goofiest most cartoonish anime but they can’t make one for serious anime like ‘Death Note’

I dont get showrunners. If you want to tell a unique story then write a screenplay. If you are adapting something from source material dont fundamentally change the story/characters.
Fallout did a great job of this. They are true to the universe that the games created while still making new characters and story lines.

How the fuck of all the anime ist one piece the one that got a good adaptation? 2 years ago I would have laughed and died on the hill that it would be the most hard to adapt. And yet here we are. I can’t wait for the weekend to watch the second season.

Take a look at that “RiNg Of PoWeR”

Counterpoint: while a lot of flops deserve the flop, there’s also a lot of “they don’t respect the source material” people who just live to complain. There’s a lot of good stuff out there getting review bombed or bad word of mouth when they don’t deserve it.

I didn’t play fallout games, so won’t say if it’s a good adaptation or not. However, I find it hard to care for the characters of the show and especially the world at large, ghoul being exception. It’s just so hopelessly futureless, I just can’tÂ

Fallout pissed A LOT of New Vegas fans for mischaracterizing Mr.House.
Dude built a whole ass defense system for Vegas when the government wouldn’t, he definitely had humanity’s best interest in mind.
But NOOOOO, let’s ignore the entire lore behind the character and make him “Le Ivul Kapitchalist!!!!!!!!!”
