Wait, how did they get a season 2 approved? Wasn't the first season a giant dumpster fire?
And fyi, I'm a fan of the manhwa, the anime just looked awful
Ditto here. I don't know why this got a second season, even if I love the manhwa. And based on the ED this is going to be really, really low budget.
…still watching it.
I don't remember anything about how S1 ended, so I caught up reading the manhwa.
There really isn't much more in the manhwa than in the anime, but the manhwa is much better paced for the story that it's telling.
The story is deceptively simple, with a lot of internal exposition, and I can understand how they're having a difficult time adapting it.
It would take a very talented script writer, storyboarder and director to make a decent adaptation.
Adapted as it is with just the surface action, it is a pretty dull story, because the writing and direction just isn't getting the characters' thoughts across. And the slow action with fast pace of the thoughts and emotions in the manhwa make it a really difficult piece to animate.
It's like they'd be better off taking a Blue Lock type of approach with powerpoint graphics and exciting narration over it, but then manhwa art doesn't really support that type of thing.
