      It’s cuz animation studios dont adapt them. In japan a good manga will likely get an anime but it’s extremely rare for a graphic novel to get adapted.

      @Eddisdedd 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

      @Glainwats_ no they aren't lmao they use a similar format to portray stories but one is able to be preserved easily and well while the latter is harder to preserve without prior knowledge. Plus one is longer of a consistent story and is originally stored in books while the other comics collection is called an omnibus.

    The alt-childhood experience was kinda goated. Amulet and Wild Kratz are also classics from my memory, along with things like Scratch, the Inspector Gadget animated series and How To Train Your Dragon: Race to the Edge. I have core memories of sneaking in to the room with the TV to watch with my sister after my 30 minutes of screentime was over. Although it definitely did lead to some bullying from not knowing what was popular at all, it was also a lot of fun and left me with... less brainrot maybe?

      I'm so sorry, the creator of Bones tried getting his comic animated a few times- most notably and recently with Netflix. Netflix sacked him and his team. It's a shame, I saw a glimpse of their development art style these artists were sharing on Twitter. It was going to be something special 😭... Really hope they don't give up on it forever. Until the animation industry stops shitting its pants and do good by the artists and writers that carry it...

This series has such great worldbuilding and atmosphere and a really compelling story, so the fact that it was intended for children to read and then promptly forget about until adulthood makes it criminally underrated. I still need to finish the rest of the series, so I guess Imma binge-read the others soon ^^

    do more videos on this please!! I remember being excited for every new issue of Amulet that came into my school library, i’d go in like every week asking if they had the new issue. It was my favorite comic series when i was in elementary school. Eventually I kinda forgot it existed but this reminded me of just how much i loved it and i never got to find out the end of it. Keep up the good work!

    It was popular years after I started reading it. The last book just came out this year. The story structure gets a bit weird after book 6, but the characters made it worth it. I read each book upon release after the first few that were out at the time, no regrets.

    I remember grabbing this book at the bookfair in 3rd grade because it looked cool. I didn't realize that I was reading a cult classical masterpiece of a novel. Amulet was literally the *only* book that I took home from school because I was so hooked to it. I wish I could relive those times again.

Amulet is amazing and I can’t even remember how many times I read this series. I need to get my hands on the new book!!
