Do Not Mess with the Video Research Club! (Anime Version) Episode 1 “The Strongest World!”
It seems the anime version starts from the very origins of Asakusa-san! What follows includes spoilers and my thoughts!
Thinking about it now, Shibahama is a peculiar place, isn’t it? So many things submerged in water… Could it be a post-global warming world after the Arctic ice has melted? Considering it’s from Ōdō-san, there must be a lot of detailed settings thought out!
The clock visible from outside isn’t in the original work, is it? Why add something new on purpose? Could it be a foreshadowing of something…?
The screening held by the Video Research Club isn’t an original anime but has changed to a screening of Conan? Copyright? No, it’s changed to something that seems more likely to invoke copyright issues, so that’s not it, right? Hmm, perhaps someone involved in policy is a fan of Conan, and that’s why it was changed…?
Kanamori-san’s bag is quite memorable! Like two sneakers put together? I didn’t notice it at all, but looking back at the original work, it indeed was a sneaker bag! Anime surely brings new realizations!
The scene where Mizusaki-san is rescued is original to the anime! It turns into a delightful development! There are already quite a few differences from the original work! Searching for these differences is fun!
Oh, upon closer inspection, the setting for the Kyrie seems a bit different? More detailed parts… Maybe the anime version incorporates more people’s opinions?
The sound effects being human voices, huh? Because it’s an imaginary scene? Such a production is possible because it’s anime!
It’s fun to find differences!
