However, many are now concerned about the anime adaptation, and for the right reasons, especially after watching the latest teaser.

Why Fans Are Worried About Sakamoto Days

The Opening For the Anime Was Disappointing To Many

Fans started worrying about Sakamoto Days upon the release of its opening which would span across the first season. The opening left many disappointed, mostly due to its animation, direction, and storyboarding, which definitely was not the best. When comparing it to what most anime nowadays are doing, it looked rushed, and certainly lacking in any charm, which is quite sad, given that Sakamoto Days has a lot of potential.

If the anime isn’t successful, this could limit its manga. Even though the manga is already very successful, it would fail to pull in new fans from the anime.

What This All Means For Sakamoto Days

Fans Will Have To Wait and See How The First Episodes Look

Fans have seen inconsistent animation quality between the opening and the final trailer. Due to this, fans can’t be 100% certain of the animation quality of the anime until the first episodes drop. That said, even the latest trailer is average, at best.

It could be that all the anime has great animation, or it could be that some episodes will have a drop in quality while others look very good. Usually, if the first few episodes aren’t solid, it is a sign of a rushed production and an overworked staff who didn’t get the tools required to pull things off.
