The big difference between Demon Slayer and the way DB Super did it was DB Super at least remade the whole story from the ground up with new animation and dialog so you were getting new content. This is just going to be the same animation re-cut into a TV format. "New footage" can mean anything from new scenes every episode to just one new scene at the end of the arc like we had with the Re:Zero s1 director's cut.

That those like myself are ok with having their TIME wasted and not being able to see the new content because we find it hard to re-watch stuff taken from us on top of that? I didn't think so. No offense but, there is ALWAYS many sides to every sitch and this isn't just about milking as I have just said. Further more while some could predict they'd do this, most could not, and even those who predicted this was gonna happen don't have the power to predict the future and know for SURE it would happen.
Anyway, hopefully this type of thing (Movie getting made into TV series) stops and doesn't continue, its real annoying...
edit: and this doesn't even take into account how this affects the new arc... |
I also hope this trend ends fast, or we're gonna get something like, for example, a Jujutsu Kaisen season 2 where the manga arc adapted for the season is preceded by a TV re-edit of the Jujutsu Kaisen 0 movie (which I think adapts a prequel chapter from the manga, or something).
To be honest, I never saw anything special in the Mugen Train arc that merited being made into a movie instead of another anime season, so being a movie first (and having to wait almost 9 months to come out in other territories so I could watch it), and then being this TV re-edit nobody asked for no matter how many people defend it ("I just have to work so much I haven't had time to watch the movie" , "if you don't like it, then don't watch it and wait until january", "of course it's about money"), just looks like a redundancy at this point.

The article already says that, for instance, the 1st episode is gonna be about Rengoku getting the mission of going to the Mugen Train, which already sounds like a filler episode to me.

The one benefit I can see for this is now the Mugen Train arc is more likely to air on Toonami.

While I totally understand all the discourse about Mugen Train getting readapted to TV format, I can't say that I share that sentiment. Having watched Demon Slayer through Toonami, I was personally hoping that it would get a TV version for those who are too lazy to watch the movie - believe me, someone out there thinks making a franchise movie a strictly canon affair is a major deterrent - and even though I saw the movie as a precautionary move in the event that this sort of thing didn't happen, I'm glad the casual audience who won't bother to seek Demon Slayer out on their own will get a shot to experience the Mugen Train arc without having to go to any extra effort.

Not surprising they'd make a tv version. Not really a big deal though, it's not like those 6 recut episodes would have turned in to 6 new episodes if they didn't do that. I imagine the time and money invested is far less in this case. If they didn't do this, then the season would probably just be 6 episodes less.

I just saw this news 10 minutes into watching the movie on Funimation. This is kind of hilarious to me right now. Guess I can what another week or two.
I don't dislike this move since its not always easy catching anime movies. Honestly, I wasn't especially happy with the movie having the next bit of content in the first place. I'd rather be able to just keep watching a series opposed to having to search for movies between seasons.

THAT is the main reason why I hate the concept of adapting manga arcs into movies when there's already an anime TV show before it.
The other is that, when Japan does a movie, I have to wait like 6-8 months for the movie to come to my country so I can watch it.

70 new cuts over 6 episodes isn't a lot at all. The first episode is the only saving grace for those who already watched the movie.

Considering how long it takes till I can actually buy a copy of the movie, they are shooting themselves in the foot a bit (unless you live in Japan). Movie was released when and I can't pick up a copy of the movie till sometime around December of this year? Now that I know this will be in the anime with more stuff in it...I probably won't pick up the movie.
Other than that, I don't really care about them rehashing the movie with added stuff. The more the merrier for me.

Pretty much. No hiccups and if nothing else happens, Toonami can air it.

70 cuts equates to a few mins at most. If you consider that a lot, then be my guest.
