![]() ![]() Vryn and Lyria are fine, but they admittedly have very simple characterization at this point in canon anyways. Katalina is immediately relegated to comedic relief, (which unfortunately gbf canon does as well, we just get cool knight mom characterization as well). I know the english translation of gbf can be pretty different so maybe the manga Gran is more similar to the jp Gran? Gran's big brother energy in the manga seems to have also come at the expense of Rackam's which is an utter shame. His characterization would best be described as an unfortunate combination of bland and forceful. Adapting any sort of self insert mc is always difficult, but Gran again, feels off. My biggest gripe overall is 100% with the characterization. I can say is that the monsters and ships look wonderful though. The boob and under skirt shots feel awkward at best. Gbf is a fantasy action/adventure series, without a whole lot of compatible themes or characters to an ecchi style in its vanilla story. Ecchi is a legitimate style, but like any style it needs to be matched in content and tone as well. I sure do wish this art didn't have strong ecchi vibes. The only time it's not is when the story focuses on a new original character that's been inserted into Rackam's backstory. Volume 2 thankfully feels less "gamey" but diverges in some weird ways from canon in regards to Rackam's backstory? Overall in the first two volumes the pacing just feels inconsistent and the story telling stripped and rushed. The fight scenes are long and draw from a lot of the mechanical aspects of gbf, while the rest of the story is fast paced and rushed feeling. The Gbf manga does something I personally am not a huge fan of in volume 1, which is telling the story in a very "gamey" way. Recognizable, it doesn't do a great job imo. While the manga essentially does this, as the story and characters are 100% still An adaptation should properly convey the story, themes and characters. I understand any adaptation is going to have to take its creative licenses, however there are a few things I think adaptations should be in order to be considered a good adaptation. I also pretty much never write reviews so sorry in advance! ![]() ![]() The combination of character, plot and world building is what hooked me back then, and genuinely has stayed consistently enjoyable in game in my opinion. To preface this review, I've been playing Granblue Fantasy for nearly three years. ![]()
