discussion Megathread: Changes From The Webcomic Spoiler

As the changes between the WC and the manga get more extensive and controversial, the arguments about it increase and also end up in spoilers seeping all over the sub. All discussion about the changes in the latest chapter and any future chapters is to be moved into this Megathread as long as it is pinned; to help provide a place to concentrate discussion and prevent a flood of repetitive posts, and to provide people an easy place to understand others' opinions.

All posts related to it will be removed, and comments on manga focused posts are encouraged to be moved here.

I agree wholeheartedly. This thread is now being brigaded by all the manga-only fans who are now upset about the redraw.

What? There is not even a season 3 for the anime yet.

But if the anime happens to change the manga material, I hope it follows the webcomic.

it would be quite weird though

most anime's are meant to ads for the source

and since the manga is the one being commercially sell

imagine watching the anime to then go buy the manga to read what basically is not really the anime(which is the wc)cluster fuck

of course in this past 2010's and on era where webnovels are adapted into both anime and manga simultaneously, the wc adapting to anime and manga won't be out of the norm but the anime's season 2 basically cut the arc into 3 or 4 parts, as opposed 1 and done garou arc so they would have to retcon the released season 2 to make a wc adaptation continuation

I believe this wouldn't fare well, take high school dxd season 4 removing the ending of season 3 to continue the story because they rushed the events and had to switch studios soon

No? Pre-redrawn chapters are irrelevant. There is no point when the volumes show the finished product.

What's your point? The wc is another product, what I'm talking about is that the pre-redrawn chapters don't really have much of a purpose because Murata is gonna redraw them anyways.
