While I think you’re absolutely right about Ramona’s relative lack of character depth in the movie, but even though Ramona’s a pretty thin character as written, I think she’s actually a fairly compelling presence based purely on Mary Elizabeth Winstead’s performance. She injects so much into Ramona through facial acting alone that she ends up being the heart of the movie for me.
That guy who recorded the quote by O’Malley seems great. Best part of the video. No but actually good video, Scott Pilgrim is a remarkably interesting franchise to analyze
The anime was my first interaction with Scott Pilgrim. I had never watched the movie or read the comic, so I had assumed the anime followed the comic until I went on Tumblr to see how other people felt about the show.
I'm not even a scott pilgrim fan, I heard about him being a clingy rebound weirdo with a high school romance and noped out, but this video made the anime sound so good I might end up checking it out!
Loved this video essay! Liked and subbed. I love your editing, and use of music. Really great takes and breakdown of the different levels of sexism and character development in each adaption

I think Winstead’s performance definitely adds a lot! There’s a reason she was able to carry so much of this show

I mean in the comic is also goes through character development
Love that all of the toxic Scott Pilgrim fans were completely called out in the anime! 👍
