We all know and love Jojo's Bizarre Adventure for it's cultural phenom of a manga and the hyperactive, LSD trip that is the David Production Anime. Since 2012. Jojo Memes have skyrocketed into the mainstream, and with Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Part 5(aka Golden Wind) having come out just last year, the series maintains it's relevancy like few anime have. But 2012 is far from the first anime adaptation of the beloved Jojo manga. 1993 saw it's very own OVA created in a much different style than what we all know of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure now. So which is better: Jojo's Bizarre Adventure 1993 OVA vs Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.

I love how even in the OVA you STILL can't tell where Jotaro's hat starts and ends.
No one will know

You missed another important part: Dio's silent teleporting. It did a fantastic job at highlighting the fear of what Jotaro can't see.
When Dio insta disappeared and appeared somewhere else, it's a creepily terrifying sight straight out of a horror movie.
I thought the whole point of that sequence was jotaro could see dio moving in stopped time, which is why dio spams ts to teleport around to see if jotaro can keep up with where he is
The best part of the OVA is when DIO throws the knives and there's just that one fish.

Admit it the OVA's DIO vs Jotaro is much more destructive than the modern one.
More destructive indeed. I kinda wished David Pro had gone out of their way to homage it a little bit. Maybe have the Road Roller explode, have Dio throw cars and the boat, have Star Platinum throw the mosque (although that would have been a big stretch to manage).

This Ova makes 90s hand drawn animation shine so well. This was done so well
I’ve always loved how the old OVA’s had a true horror feel to it??? It felt scary and dark and full of tension all over the place vs what we know of the usual JoJo that is also dark but the tone’s usually still have a quirky vibe to them lol. Still always fun.
Dude, actually, I knew the manga before any adaptation; I thought it was a horror story, and I loved it! The OVA conveyed that feeling so well! For me THAT'S JOJO (the videogame of Vento Aureo for the Play Station did a perfect job too). Also everything made sense when I read Araki is a fan of horror movies!
I felt kinda disappointed when David Productions opted for the flamboyant campy style...
@@materialknight It's just really hard to do because JoJo is such a good story that mixes a LOT of styles, the flamboyant style just works well for the majority of part 3 but some parts were clearly made with horror in mind.
Half of the Baoh OVA is literally an onslaught of people
FULLY AGREED
The OVA has different things that add flavor:
-The OVA is more destructive and bloody.
-It's kinda more accurate when they show people and they aren't speaking Japanese but Arab and also look like Arabians.
-It shows that Dio and Jotaro aren't flying as most people think, they're using their stands to jump.
-It makes more sense having Jotaro surviving the oil tanker than the road roller, the attack with the oil tank happens in the last 2 seconds of Dio's stopped time which makes sense with Jotaro's 2 seconds of time stop. Meanwhile, with the road roller with the counter-attack of Jotaro, it seems like 5 seconds, leading Araki to state that in his prime Jotaro could stop time for 5, not 2 seconds.
The OVA is cool.
iggy was so cool in ova especcialy when they were fighting vanilla ice
@H M iggy get out of here, he's still alive!
Not only that but Everytime Dio paused time or moved to different places it was just complete silence no extra time stop sound effect, which I think is amazing cause there really is no sound when time is stopped.
Arab isn't a language, Arabic is.

COCKYOIN
I think my favorite detail of the OVA is when we see Dio's use of The World from an outsider's perspective. In the modern anime, the screen sort of blacks out for a few frames with that famous sound effect, but in the OVA, he just... disappears without a single noise. It's so eerie and it works amazingly.
I think the OVA is much easier to appreciate now after the David production anime since even with the liberties it takes with the source material at least there's a faithful animated version as well
I finished the David Pro anime a few days back and am on Part 4 currently, but I'm also watching the OVA. I think it works better if seen after the anime. Like the Escaflowne movie or the Zeta Gundam: New Translation movies.
It can be seen as a 'companion piece' to the manga/anime
That OVA has my preferred Dio fight.
Frffy Vs Boredom .... yare yare daze
Same. I think it’s better adapted objectively. The whole “Why can Jotaro and DIO fly” issue is never brought up as it’s shown that they jump, and Polnareff’s entrance blends with Jotaro’s headshot MUCH better. The fight choreography is a little worse, but the canonical changes make it way better in my opinion, as well as the changes mentioned in the video.
Agreed. Also felt that Avdol's death was done better plus the Vanilla ice fight itself.
HERECY
I love The World in the OVA. In one scene during the fight Dio is silently teleporting around, which is what it would look like to an outsider

Name of series: Stardust Crusaders

I honestly like the animation style a lot more in the OVA. Everything just feels soo much more fluid.
It's probably due to the ova being so short, Compared to the modern adaptation that's over 40 episodes long.
@cumlaude coomer I don't think that's necessarily true. The current jojo series is more comparable to something like dragon ball than the ova. Anime that's so many episodes long tend to have very inconsistent animation quality.
no lol its because its handdrawn
You can’t beat hand drawn
@@acecard3816 basically 90% of every animators on Japan still hand draws.
They simply scan the drawings digital and then the AD makes correction and the color scheme is added ecc...ecc..
I really like how kakyoin’s emerald splash seems genuinely dangerous in the OVA
The way he flies through that advertisement and smashes into the water tank was jaw dropingly amazing
I think the OVA is a perfect example that you don't need to go to the extreme to deliver the same message.
I really love Dio in the OVA.
He's so calm and collected, truly showing he has nothing to fear.
Love the video.💕
I binged all 13 episodes yesterday, and a lot of the changes are pretty awesome, even the stuff before Egypt. The Justice fight is significantly changed for the better, and some of the minor changes make a lot of sense.
Instead of Avdol recognizing the fly Star Platinum drew, Kakyoin is the one who has the idea to check what kind of fly it is. It's a subtle change but it reinforces that each crusader has their own strengths to offer, and how they are so powerful together.
As a standalone work, the OVAs are really strong. It shows a lot of restraint and builds up a feeling of genuine dread, which I didn't feel at all in the DP adaption.
I kind of wish we got an adaption like this for Part 5 tbh, would be very interesting to see. At that point it'd feel like a Tarantino film with Stands thrown in, which I'd kill to see.
The first fight with Diavolo would be terrifying in the OVA style
I liked the dialogue in the buildup to Kakyoin's death in the OVA, His resolve shining through while Dio is patronizing him is such a great moment on its own.
I also like how rather than slowly walk over while monologuing and punching cats, DIO full on sprints through a crowd of people to get to Joseph while time was stopped. It felt like he was taking things much more seriously.
Yeah I like the sound design in the OVA a lot. The DIO fight, despite lacking the ZA WARUDO sound, has an even more eerie effect by showing DIO there one moment and just gone the next, with the object he was holding falling down.
also DIO, in the second half of the fight, he is shown off even stronger, throwing cars, boats and even an oiltruck.. yes no Roadroller but for a Final Fight I think the OVA compensates quite well
I mean he straight up yeeted those cars. And then Star Platinum throws a tower at DIO.
*OilTanker**
5/10 no road roller. Meh adaptation.
AND OIL TANKER FOR YOU
I must admit the lack of ROADROLLADAAAAAA was a bit disappointing, but well forgivable seeing the rest of the fight
I love how when Dio teleports it doesn’t make a sound so it makes him a more scary character and even more quiet and that we don’t really know when exactly he teleports because it doesn’t have that boom type noise
plus the D'Arby fight in the OVA is maybe the greatest moment a human could witness ! The tension is incredible, the designs are so more awesome than the DP anime, the old school style animation suits so well this old ass manga.... everything is great in this episode, and a lot of things are great in this OVA !
Just because a manga is old doesn't mean old-school animation would suit it...
Disagree the new animation style fit it much better considering how goofy his ability and the whole moment is
Two scenes always stick in my mind from the OVA:
1 - Iggy's first-person intro
2 - The entire Dio sequence.
Both are just so smooth and striking.
It's so weird how old and rich this series is and I only found out about it in 2019
Same here, only except i found out about it in 2020
I found out about it in 2021. Just two weeks ago. I’m already 1/2 way through Stardust Crusaders. I prefer the hamon Jojo’s though. More skill based than Stands.

The OVA is honestly my preferred version of part 3. a lot of people reject the OVA, not because it's necessarily worse, but simply because it isn't what they expect from JoJo. Most people don't want subtle presentation from JoJo; the series is known for how wacky it is and so that's what gets the most representation in the fandom. The OVA, at least to me, represents what I love about JoJo, it's that, while it is wacky and out there and dare i say, bizarre, it's still, in spite of that an extremely strong narrative that deserves credit for being more than what it seems to be on the surface.
I think that OVA's reception by most as a lesser product when compared to its source material and its later adaptation is disappointing. Because it isn't, not at all, as was said in this video, it's a different take that accents certain strengths of the manga and subdues others for the sake of making itself as good of a version of what it's attempting to be as it can.
The OVA, to me, represents the sincerity in JoJo as a series, it demonstrates that there's more to JoJo than the word "bizarre" in the title. It's also an adventure, a century sprawling, gripping and a genuinely captivating adventure.
I mostly don't like it because it rushes through the plot and skips like 60% of it, (though I know a lot of people seem to think part 3 drags on with repetitive encounters, which I can understand) has essentially no background music or even ambience coupled with awkward dialogue pauses and at times just straight up unintentionally hilarious voice acting, especially the english dub. I do like how they did Dio's time stop, though, with him just straight up vanishing at some parts, making it kinda suspenseful. Overall, I enjoy watching it as it's own thing, though only ironically for how awkward it is, and vastly prefer the anime or manga to experience the story of part 3, but I can see how some might prefer it if they view the series differently from me
True, but most of what you said is still there in the David pro. version, if you look for it. I'd say a rewatch will make you notice it more.
@@blankname3816 that's why I see OVA more like a small movie of jjba, imagine if they included everything and voice acting was good
@@Blaze-dq2hq
They stated their opinion calmly and politely.
The OVAs were my first JoJo experience and hold a special place in my heart because of it. I'm tempted to say that I prefer it over the David Productions version but they're both great.

Except for The Boss v. Metalica.
@@Flamme-Sanabi Except for a lot of fights.
@@inr9751 sometimes.
d'Arby OVA is amazing. It's funny, when I watched JBA Stardust Crusaders and got to the second half I was like "I saw this before..." then I realized I watched the dubbed OVAs on regular cable during a channel's "anime hour" a long time ago.
Nice to see the ova get some love. Honestly the only real problem I had with it was the voice acting, it sucked either in Japanese or English. It's just too quiet!
But the animation is beautiful and I like the way the plot was condensed.
Comic Fan Nicolas so true!
Well... i'm italian and i haven't that problem 'cause the italian dubbing of the ova is really good
Giuseppe Di Maio the italian dub is top notch
kmden Rt The ENG dub wasn’t as bad as many people think but it certainly had some issues regarding the direction,especially Joseph.
Although the same thing applies to the JP version,it gets a lot of bad rep because of JP Dio even though he sounds good despite not being hammy even though it also had some issues.
@kmden Rt *an oil tanker for you*
What I love about this OVA is that they took the source material and did cinematic adaptation in a very successful way. It wasn't about getting those memorable sting poses; they took the plot and then made it into an 80's movie, which is effectively is! The pacing of the final battle was great, and the subtle change like making Jotaro stomp the manhole cover instead of ambiguously appear, or the entire section in the desert and Avdol's use of his rings felt so much more suspensful because they put beat and pacing first, and then adaptation second. Plus the old animation style really gives it a lot of charm!
I loved the OVA's version Dio fight.
Same
Little late to the comments on this. The OVA is great in it's own way. This was my gateway to Jojo and will always hold a special place in my heart and there are a lot of things in it that is different but left me in awe in its own way. Introduced to N"Doul's stand with a water hand ripping a pilots head off and pulling it into a canteen amazing. Loved his line during his death as well about why he followed Dio in that even evil needs a savior. As some mentioned just how dark and grisly certain moments are like the senator. As the video said very much enjoyed the lack of music at certain moments really did leave it more intense. I don't look at it as "Oh this isn't the same and should be forgotten" I truly feel it stands on it own as an unique adaptation of Jojo. As I said without it I wouldn't have been a Jojo fan as long as I have been.
So, here's what happened.
One day on the world wide web I stumbled upon the "ZA WARUDO" Meme
I knew about JoJo before, but never watched it. Just started watching it recently, but could never really get into it.
Then I saw your video. I have to say, this OVA looks really interesting. I prefer this style of animation much more.
Seeing this makes me want to check it out.
God I hate when anime has the same problem as the manga
Edit: haha very funny color and music. But like when there is problems that come up in a story or a character that dose not work, there is no need to keep that same problem in the animation.
What, no music?
No colour?
@@Strykelife Can you imagine if a Manga shipped with, like, a CD of music to listen to? That'd be rad.
3:10 I love how perfectly golden wind is timed with dio using the world
JoJo David Production: youre weak.
OVA: I am you
David Production:Actually you're not :v
David Pro: are you tho'?
HEAVY! DO. NOT. DO IT!
IF YO KILL HEAVY- HE WILL DDIE!
Honestly? While the OVA is deeply flawed in ways, I really respect it (especially the 2nd half you guys focus on talking about). I still find it pretty heartbreaking that its been buried because of the controversy as well as the DavidPro anime, even if I do love that we have a more faithful adaptation these days. It seems to unfair to APPP that this may never have an actual rerelease and it adds to the tragedy (for me, at least) that Satoshi Kon worked on this and it’s practically lost media by this point, if not for proliferation on the internet. I collected some cels from the OVA production since media preservation is a fascinating subject to me.
hey at least it isn't the phantom blood movie, lol. man i wish i could see that thing.
Still one of my favourite parts of the ova is when jotaro is outside if the range of the world so we just see dio teleport without a noise especially the one where he dissapeares and the knife falls and the shot of him on the lamp post with glowing red eyes in the shadows it genuinely makes dio feel terrifying when he just vanishes in plain view and appears somewhere else without a sound
I think the changes in vibe had to do w/: the involvement of Satoshi Kon writing the last 3 episodes of the '93 OVA and Skywalker Studios being hired for the sound design work, their only involvement in any anime.
Wait, Star Wars?
@@privatetrash2810 Yes, as well as Indiana Jones, Jurassic Park, Marvel films, a number of Robert Zemeckis films... essentially the the reason most blockbusters always sounds so monumental.
@@thirtyyearoldmulberryfield lmao thanks
It amuses me that Star wars and JoJo have a connection like this.
@@Klonoahedgehog *STAR WARS IS NOW A J O J O R E F E R E N C E*
That heart stopping scene is the best thing about that. It went just long enough to create so much real tension.
kakyoin looks really good in the ova
I honestly believe Andrew Chaikin was the best DIO. Wish he could have voiced him in the David Production anime.
this gave me chills. definitely going to give the ova a watch now. would you recommend the other episodes of the ova that were added later? also, as far as anime that were given some freedom to make it their own, yu yu hakusho is a great example. i do know that at least a bunch of the earlier stuff was cut, and i know in the dub some changes were made with character motivations, also the dub is amazing, both hilarious and suspenseful and everything in between, but most importantly, the actual animation and visuals were given so much freedom to create something totally original and wild. a lot of the scenes hardly even look like they're from the same show. also there are some completely brutal scenes where everything is monochrome but it flashes from red to white, so unfortunately on a couple rare occasions it might be a bit dangerous to watch if you have epilepsy. even still, those crazy scenes that even hurt my eyes to watch instill this visceral sense of dread and horror, and they're used perfectly.
i also think hunter x hunter 1999 achieves this as well. some of the scenes in hxh 1999 are just absolutely dripping with atmosphere. it also has a rare case of good filler, in which there's more time given to showing gon on his home island (including the scenes with Kite, which are actually canon but the 2011 series cut for some stupid reason) a whole episode of leorio and gon meeting as they try and find a boat, an entire additional section added to the hunter exam, as well as some more scenes of leorio's backstory. now, some people feel like this makes the hunter exam arc drag on, but it was my first introduction to the series and i enjoyed every minute of it, and i think being given that extra time to breathe really settles you into the world. also, in general everything *is* a lot more atmospheric and grounded, and you aren't constantly reminded that you're watching a shonen. lastly, the yorknew city arc is *absolutely* above and beyond the 2011 version. the artistic decisions and the moody lighting turn the grim feeling of the arc up to 11, and there are some absolutely *gorgeous* stills of the city used as establishing shots. it is legitimately beautiful.
[adult swim]
Yeah I'd say the prequel OVA is worth the watch.
Great point about the background music. I was wondering why those moments in the OVA hit harder.
I think the OVA is stunning visually, however I prefer the sound design of the modern version, but that’s subjective
I liked the execution of the world in the OVA, the way DIO teleports about with no sound cue really emphasises the eerie-ness of his stand and how terrifying and confusing it would be.
The memes are what got me interested in Jojo. That OVA (more specifically Dio’s World) is what made me start watching it and I haven’t regretted a single second of it
"damn it its kakyoins hierophant"
YES! THANKYOU! The only context of discussion I have ever seen this ova under until this video was entirely negative and it has always really bugged me. It really is an underrated gem and you cover why it is so great perfectly.
So... the only thing that would've made the last Jotaro vs Dio fight from the David Productions version of Stardust Crusaders better than the OVA version, is if they had used Sono Chi no Sadame as the last fight song. As a circular ending to that specific saga.
That would've been redundant as hell. They already used it for Battle Tendency's ending.
Not to mention it wouldn't fit at all
@@teddybeer6206
Honestly, I didn't understand why they used it there. But even if it were redundant, it still makes more sense to play it during the Dio vs Jotaro fight, than what they played then.
Nah, it would've been better if they used Jonathan's theme. There's a video somewhere where someone played it over Dio's death and it worked great.
Both Jonathan's theme and So No Chi No Sadame would not fit at all.
They would fit though,it’s Dio and the story of the Joestars after all.
Plus the theme that was used was the Stardust Crusaders variation for the D’arby fight,if something as random as that was used then I don’t see why Jonathan’s theme or the first opening would not fit.
I love the style of the OVA it has a dated yet appealing and realistic feel to it that I love. I aslo just adore older/more classic anime styles.
The OVA Jojo's is easily my favourite of the entire series. The silence there is when Dio first confronts Jotaro with his power and he has the internal monologue figuring it out while Dio seemlessly teleports around like a magician is truly magical to me. When I saw it for the first time in 2001, I was just blown away.
The darker tone and shorter episode count of the OVA makes me think it would've worked better as a Phantom Blood OVA.
I remember this being so hard to find complete because it was split into two parts but many had the 2nd part labelled as the 1st or just as the complete thing. Well worth it because this is what I used to introduce people to the epicness that is JoJo
Even that far back in time, Jotaro's hair is still combined with his hat
One scene I'd like to give a shoutout to is the boat scene where Jonathan battled Dio one final time only to die and have his head decapitated. Dio's vines/tentacles/whatever that was carefully caressing Jonathan's head looked so beautiful when they animated it.
The original Hunter x Hunter is like that .i mean the tone is pretty dark than the 2011 version
The difference between kurapika's scarlet eyes scene is immense. With the guy holding a gun against him, the original anime shows it like the scary shit it is, the 2011 anime shows it like ooooo badass kurapika.
Matthew Lucas the ant arc was pretty dark
FuZe narwhal yeah that arc but that’s one whole arc
Matthew Lucas it was like half the show though
FuZe narwhal it’s later on
OVA DIO: (aggressively calm) An oil tanker for you.
are we ignoring the fact that jotaro is perfectly conscious even with a knife in his skull
in the anime its seen that the metal part of his cap took the brunt, i think
Jotaro stuffed books in his uniform to protect himself from the knives, at least in the anime version, I haven't seen the Ova version.
but its litterally piercing his skull...
In the ova Dio punches Jotaro out of the mansion and to treat his wound Jotaro puts on himself some wood plancs that later are the same that would protec him from the knives, instead of the magically appearing books
honestly I just really like the english voice they gave to DIO in it, even though he doesn't mudamuda properly the voice he puts on just fits the character so well, especially considering part 6
Kakyoin's entrance after returning from the hospital was my favourite part from the OVA. It was just so badass that he just fucking shot down the roof of a building lmao
just thank you for making a video like this
KUKYOIN UH AH UHN UHG! THEY GOT HIS EYES!
Im absolutely in love with the OVA kakyoin design. :))
Great video. I appreciate both. I can enjoy smtg original source while also experimental adaptations. Its kinda fun surprising and unique haha
Wow, great video. Love the commentary.
It would have been cool if they adapted part 1 in the same format as this ova, the lack of music and the darker tone would have fit phantom blood so well.
(And yes i know about the movie)
Jojo fans since 1993: ah i remember the old days......
Jojo fans since 2012: this is original
Yo congrats on 100k!
Great video!! I appreciate both even tho i love the ova more. I can enjoy smtg original source while also experimental adaptations. Its fun surprising and unique haha

I love the way the OVA handled The scene with DIO and the senator.
I just bought the dvd of the ova and i watched this video before even if i knew what i was goig to watch i wanted to know a bit more and i think your video is perfect is well written and just long enough for us to acknowledge the difference without spoiling them .

An oil tanker for you
Aight, cuz of you imma go ahead and watch the OVA and keep ya updated
This OVA is one of the greatest I've ever seen ... and god have I seen a lot those since the 90's
Even the music at the beginning, when the sacrifice takes place is kind of mesmerizing, sad and deep, and very far from what you could have expected from a Jojo's video adaptation
It feels more mature than the material it is based on.
Big place in my heart, my memory and my soul
Your analyse of this masterpiece is spot on
Damn right it is!
If only we had the movie from 2007 (whose discord server I happen to run) available for viewing to cap off the APPP trilogy of sorts. It rarely gets spoken of and is forgotten even more than the OVA
As for why the OVA is so different? Mostly correct. According to bonus features and interviews from the DVDs, the project is seen by Araki himself as a very nice greatest-hits style adaptation of the manga's best moments for fans who already read and loved the manga, and that was sort of the intention going in. Another reason was they were given the budget and go-ahead for only six episodes, and chose to adapt only the more popular and recent second half as to not totally massacre the story. It was their hope that one day they could bring Junichi Hayama (the character designer for all JoJo adaptations from 1993-2007, and the main creative figurehead behind them) back for an adaptation of the beginning of part 3, which happened in 2000.
Unfortunately, the '93 OVA is absurdly pricey to get officially due to being recalled after a 2008 controversy over the accidental inclusion of the Quran in the 2000 OVA, which in an ironic twist of fate is still dirt cheap to buy since its release predated the controversy by MANY years, whereas the '93 OVA had hardly circulated in north america by that time. It's never been in print in any country ever since, and the studio behind the OVAs/Movie has never done a project of their own ever since, now relegated to doing supporting work for other studios' projects. It's unfortunate, especially since the now-lost 2007 movie was lost in the shuffle of controversy and ended up shelved indefinitely, and as of last week it's been 13 years ongoing now that it's been impossible to view. It's a tragedy, really, would have loved to see the team's unique take on part 1, as well as the few scenes that were adapted only in that version.
If it really was a 'best hits' of the manga then they would have included the Pet Shop fight to have Iggy be actually fucking useful.
@Jotaro97 They hired out Junichi Hayama for the overall design of the JoJo adaptations, who otherwise wasn't involved in the studio afaik, and it starts to make a lot more sense when one keeps in mind he was a veteran of the peak 80s era of muscle-man anime productions like Fist of the North Star. He was a great fit imo, and I prefer his designs vastly over the 2012 adaptation.
Joseph OVA : badass blondie grandpa
Joseph modern: Joker but blonde and old
Ah and i like it.
words from you comes like falling flowers on my ear drums
My feeling on the new version is that Kakyoin didn't actualy had a happy life to return, with the meaning that this was the perfect time for him to die
the creators took a huge risk with this adaptation and i love it
Since I ain't see this in the comments imma just say it.......
"AN OIL TANKER FOR YOU!"
It kind of disappoints me that more people (especially people outside the fandom) don’t know about the OVA, it’s definitely a hidden gem.
OVA Visuals + DP Audio = perfect
The main reason I love the OVA is the larger scale destruction and less 'jojo' in it. The fights in jojo feel underwhelming for how powerful stands like the world are. And with the constant posing and more heavy focus on the 'strategy' aspects, it can't appeal to everyone.
I'm serious when I say that if the jojo anime was remade to be something like the OVA (faster pace, larger destruction) then it would be a field day for anyone who loves heavy action anime.
And honestly, it might have been better to have it animated in that way. (I don't know the animation studio for the ova) in the anime, it's a one-to-one copy, which isn't great as the manga panels in jojo don't translate well to animation, and aren't particularly fluid.
Been telling y'all for years that it really isn't as bad as you think it is.
Seriously, the atmosphere and framing of the final battle is phenomenal, damn-near perfect, and the animation is so silky and intricate.
Sure there are some inconsistencies, but I am a sucker for good animation.
Yes! I agree with you. I always like when the adaptation takes some artistic license and puts it's own spin on things, and tries to improve on the source material, while also respecting it.
I like the art style and special effects of the OVA it feels like I'm watching the old X-Men cartoons
Just going to EMERALD SPLASH that like button
Shonen Ronin so miss the like button?
@@chokovok7231 where do u think the 6 dislikes came from
I really liked how much darker and more serious the OVA was. It was also really detailed. I dunno but I really prefer the OVA over David Productions.
You NEED to watch the other 7 episodes of the OVA covering the first arc, they are legit gems also
I think it is awesome how Skywalker Sound worked on this
