Just finished it. A fairly solid adaptation if you ask me.

I get the complaints about the CGI and the animation isn't the smoothest at times, but honestly the more I watched it the more I thought this is actually probably the best way to emulate the manga's art style. So despite its obvious flaws I came around to it by the end.

Suits and fight scenes looked especially good, though minor as it may be I much prefer the colour placement on the suits in the manga. They went a bit red crazy on the suits to match the original versions here, but since there's more going on with these suits I think the colour breakdowns with the manga work much better. This is also partly just me justifying to myself that I don't need the new figures

Story flowed pretty well despite some of the stuff they cut. Wasn't much of a fan of the abridged Igaru appearance at the concert or Red, Jack and Shin being cut from the Ace Killer fight, but the biggest omission for me was just axing Red (as an actual character that is) from it altogether. I do hope they rework him back in if they do more because he has some great bits in volume 11.

Sound and work was all really good too. Was nice hearing all the original sounds and the effects they put on Edo's voice was great. Just how I'd imagine he'd sound.

So yeah, I was pretty happy with this overall. Sure it's not SSSS.Gridman levels of good and doesn't match up to the manga, but it was a solid watch and I'd recommend it.
