Fan Reactions to Character Design in Anime and Manga
A thread on Reddit has sparked a heated discussion about the appeal of character design in anime compared to its manga counterpart. One fan expressed, “I felt this way since episode 1 of season 1, yet I feel like many people are indifferent to it.”
Many others shared similar sentiments, stating, “Exactly, the character design is the most appealing aspect of anime, and it tends to be even more pronounced compared to manga.”
Another commenter added, “Anime gives a much more vibrant design to characters, especially compared to the more subdued styles in manga. Narumi is the most serious character, and I felt that as soon as I saw him.” The character Gen Narumi made his debut in episode 12, the final episode of the first part.
Currently, there is no specific timeline provided for the return of Kaiju No. 8. Fans are hopeful for a revival in 2025, but it remains uncertain what can be predicted regarding the anime industry.
