One of the best videos available treating Karekano’s series, making a complete comparison between the manga and the anime. I am happy to have found this, since it’s so hard to articulate my impressions surrounding these controversial but overall ambitious work ( both anime and manga). Thanks for the analysis.
I’m glad the video is finding it’s audience! I was really shocked to find such a lack of discussion surrounding KK’s manga. After I read Steel Snow, I knew it would be a major part of the video. I really appreciate your comment, thank you for the kind words 🥲
Just finished the series for the first time and I have never felt such disappointment in an ending and simultaneously such love for the characters. I really appreciated hearing how the manga turned out.
That’s a nice way to describe ending this series. I had a similar reaction but that disappointment eventually faded and turned into curiosity, which inspired this video! I’m really glad to be able to provide some closure for fans who may have felt a similar way as well. Thank you for your insightful comment 🙂
Wow! I had no idea this series existed! Thank you for breaking it down I really wouldn’t have known where to start. I really like what you said at the end about how everything’s a process. I think nowadays we’re so blinded by over consumption, instant gratification & social media we forget the reality and this video really made me appreciate the “process” of life. Awesome video, keep it up!
Thanks for your comment and kind words! The production background and plot are interesting enough on their own but connecting the two felt right for the video.
This is a beautiful video, I’ve never read the manga and arimas backstory made me tear up. Your analysis is much appreciated as a lover of this show ❤ thank you
Thank you for this incredibly kind comment. Shining a light on the manga for anime only fans is one of the reasons I made this video in the first place. I'm glad took the time to watch it and more importantly, gained something from it. ☺
Personally I find that Kare kano is one of the best romance animes out there. Of course thats a personal opinion but its just never talked about or appreciated enough. I agree its not perfect because of the ending budget issues, but even that makes it something special. the story telling and how raw and real it is, the music, the artstyle its just so amazing. I have it all on dvd!
It's one of a kind for sure and its production issues are what ended up making it such an endearing series in the long run. Would love to own it on DVD one day! Thank you so much for watching :)
This video came on right when I started getting into the series at last! Really timely. Though I hadn't read or watched it before, I have always known about it, so I've been really shocked lately at how everyone refers to it as "forgotten...." So, thanks for bringing light to this work as it falls into obscurity!
Congrats on getting into the series! While I feel that Kare Kano is well known for its memes or inside GAINAX circles, it's becoming obscure for the average viewer so I'd classify it as forgotten for sure. Thanks for checking out the video as well!✌
Finally got the chance to finish watching this. Despite loving Eva I know very little about gainax or their other projects so this was a fascinating insight. This isn't usually the type of manga/anime I would be interested in but this video was so good I may have to look into it now...
Thank you Thomas, really glad you enjoyed the video! Despite being a different genre, Kare Kano manages to keep a lot of Anno's signature style so I really think it's worth checking out if you like EVA in the slightest. I'd also check out Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water! That one's a great pre-EVA show from Anno.
I only watched about halfway through the anime (don’t know why I stopped, I really liked it) and I had no idea about its troubled production. Thank you for this video, this was such an interesting watch!
Thank you so much for checking out the video, I’m glad you found it interesting! I think the second half is great but it has a different tone for sure. Still, you should check it out if you have the time!
not gonna watch but goated to see a video on karekano in the current year. It really does have so much that is unparalleled in any era. Shame the hack anno ruined it whats your take on him being the worst?
yeah it was great then he nuked it causing half the show to blow. I haven't seen a show he worked on that hasn't seemed like he did something to hamstring it. I'd love to talk to a anno enjoyer sometime and try to figure out what they like about him cus he just seems like a hack to me. Sad to hear the manga wasn't epic tho I was kinda hoping to read it someday and see the ending I wanted. Good job on the vid tho God bless.

Great video! I liked how you connected both production histories to the story.

I always wanted to know more about this series, I’ve seen screenshots of it all the time and wondered what the name was.
It’s definitely a popular series that not many people actually watch but it’s worth your time for sure!

I liked Anno’s version?? 🫠 You can find out why in this very video in fact!
yeah it was great then he nuked it causing half the show to blow. I haven't seen a show he worked on that hasn't seemed like he did something to hamstring it.
