What's the most unforgivable sin done in media that you're still bitter about? (piefed.social)

I still can't stop but think how stretched out the Hobbit films were, for an otherwise short book. That's a sin that stains forever with me. The Lord of the Rings films, do have their own flaws, but they're fairly contained and can be debated as to whether they were good or not. I have so much trouble excusing anything with the Hobbit though.

And I hope we never, ever see anyone tackle The Silmarillion. Simply because, there will be so much improvised fluff in that would-be film, that it'd make the Hobbit films blush.

The One Punch Man anime turning into One Frame Man in its third season.

From battles consisting of transparent PNGs sliding from the bottom left to the top right corner of the screen, to ludicrous censoring techniques like replacing a cigarette with a lollipop.

For the fourth season they just inversed the poster from the third season. Tbf it will be actually Season 3 part 2, but it shows they aren't even trying.

Juxtaposed to this is the Dorohedoro anime, that also dropped a new season this year, after six (!) years.

The long wait had a good reason. The animator loves the manga, but was busy working on the Attack on Titan anime and didn't want to rush Dorohedoro's second season. It's a huge improvement over the first season, refining its mix of 3D and 2D hand drawn content into a wonderfully horrifying experience.

One punch man really made me angry because the manga at these parts is actually the most interesting it's been for a while. Getting to see the other heroes and their abilities but more than that getting to watch Garou fight and grow is amazing in the manga.

After season 2 i already suspected we were not getting to see Garou's growth in a quality matching season 1.

After seeing the now infamous Garou slide right in the beginning of the season, i buried any expectations i had.

Did you still watch the complete season? I know many stopped watching half way through.

I watched it all and besides the drop in quality, i was left confused about how the anime will handle the retconned parts of the manga.

It's already an effort to keep up to date with only the manga and now the anime mixed it up. Some parts are adapted from the retconned version, while others parts are not.

It really seems that their decision depends on which version of a chapter will be lower effort to animate.

Yeah I watched it all. I just believe now that the manga is the only way to get the real story.
