The key point is to talk about the character design: Internally, the portrayal of the inner world of each protagonist is very unsuccessful. In the original book, Allen's mother was eaten by giants, so Allen hated giants and wanted to kill all giants. This motivational setting is very simple and crude but very effective. And the movie version, why kill giants? Where is the so-called hate? There may be an attempt to express, but I think this aspect is thin. The movie version of Allen has infinitely amplified shortcomings. What kind of shit is this protagonist? This is an adaptation of the hot-blooded boy comics.
Not just Alan, but all the characters are portrayed as unmotivated idiots. Mikasa and the soldier are the two most anticipated characters, not to mention it, which is an insult to the original work. Is this a Japanese family ethics drama?
Let's talk about the appearance settings. minus! In an anime with many characters like "Jin", it is very necessary for the characters to have a distinct appearance and personality. In this regard, the animation is better than the manga. Everyone is a teenager who is struggling to survive under adversity. They talk less and do more things. Generally speaking, they have occasional emotional outbursts. Almost everyone is calm and steady, so they must have a clear appearance to distinguish them.
Also, in many anime works, hairstyle and hair color are actually a means of portraying the character of a character, a typical example is "Slam Dunk". The movie version of "Jin" has a black bird's nest head. Sometimes I can't even tell Alan and Armin apart, let alone those stupid supporting roles.
The biggest target audience of anime-adapted movies are fans of the original work. Like "Jin", the original work has been changed beyond recognition, not only for the plot, but also for the characters. Not to mention "sincerity", right?
Finally, I want to say that the adaptation of animation into a movie is a technical job, not to mention that "Jin" is adapted from more than ten episodes of animation. But don't do this project if you can't! Recommended success stories of anime adaptations in personal hearts: "Rurouni Kenshin" and "NANA"
