Really?
I feel like they can make it work HxH and AOT had waaaaay more dialogue than PN and those two translated well animated
The dialogue isn't a worry to me since to me PN had a good balance between main plot and action
My worry is them getting the tone right the suspense and mystery especially in that first arc is what grabs you
But if that animation is janky and if they just start rushing shyt its going to kill every thing thats good about the series
PN is mainly talking after that first chapter. HxH worked cause it's still a battle shounen despite how much it wants to undermine its own tropes. And we won't really know how well it holds up until it gets to the awful prince arc the manga is on now.
AoT is heavy on shock and the animation studio did a great job waiting out the material and blazing through Attack on Politics at 2x speed.
I agree with you on the tone, the whole grip of the manga is tone. Mystery, mistrust, danger, hopelessness etc; Which is why I don't see it popping out here. There is no who's strongest discussions, no waifu bullshyt, the characters aren't fandom friendly....idk. I see it being underrated like Mushi shi. Like even if it gets a good studio the manga's actual art is janky itself lol
If guys can make shyt like High School of The Elite halfway interesting then anything is possible.
And I don't know man... more battle shounen flop than people realize.
Only because there's more battle shounen than anything else
I mean MHA is probably the most battle shouneniest stuff out there and it's actually more popular in the west than out east. The same way Naruto did when it devolved into a battle shounen.
You think Dr. Stone would pop out here?
