They did great job with Chainsaw Man and Vinland Saga season 2.
Ansolutely, though we really should wish they DON’T pick up anymore new IPs for the time being. Even by anime studio standards, they seem to be one of the most overworked, and obviously their employees’ health should be a priority.
To be clear, the series they have and will presumably (a few of these are confirmed) continue:
-Chainsaw Man
-Hell’s Paradise
-Jujutsu Kaisen
-Vinland Saga
-Yuri on Ice
-Zombieland Saga
Also they’ll be adapting In This Corner of the World.
Let’s have them be able to finish a few of these before grabbing even more series.
it still sucks that amazing mangas like Dorohedoro had to get hideous looking adaptations for us to get there.

A few Berserk fans would probably trade a kidney to get an adaptation that looks like this over what they got in 2016 AKA an actual hideous looking adaptation. Like, yeah Dorohedoro’s CGI is not on Studio Orange’s level, but compared to Berserk 2016, Handshakers, Ex-Arm, etc., it’s clearly FAR better looking than any of those, and Geezus Christ, I know its anime adaptation gets better especially in later seasons, but starting off a peak manga like Golden Kamuy like this is just wrong:
Not to mention the Dorohedoro anime on MAL ultimately ranked #514 of all time and its popularity is #404 of all time, meaning lots of people enjoyed it and also meaning more people will check out the manga. So it’s not the anime’s existence hurt the manga, it was generally well received and raised awareness of the manga, which is arguably what’s important.
