Uzumaki Producer Knows Exactly What Went Wrong With Adult Swim’s Adaptation

Cartoon Network for Swimming and Programming TONAMI played a major role in bringing anime to the American main current. Now, the network is not characterized by the stateside series, but it also produced a good part of the anime. For example, the Batman “The Big O” series won a second season in 2003, which she participated in its production by Sunrise and Cartoon Network, because the show was a great success on Tonami.

Adults are about to launch “Lazaros”, the latest anime from the “Cowboy Bebop” shinhiroo watanabe. But many anime lovers are still reeling from the disappointment of the last large anime to swim.

This will be “Uzumaki” for the year 2024, which is the adaptation of four episodes of the famous Junji ITO 1998. The city and its people, including our heroine, Kerry Joshima, cursed, and always showing their torment as a spiral form. (“” Ozumaki “is a Japanese” Sulazouni “.

The series was first produced in IG Usa and Adult Swim for the first time in 2019, and the date was originally set for the date of the 2020 version. Then it was returned to 2021 before it was postponed again (reported that Covid-19 resulted in about a year delaying production at this time), without anything but a 35-second humor to show it. Finally, the “Look First” clip was shown for the first time in July 2023, over the course of the series for the first time on Tonami in September 2024.

The delays seemed to deserve all this trouble when the first “Ozumaki” episode proved that it was very good. This has been announced as the first successful attempt in the ITO comic art, leaving many of the next three episodes impatiently. Then the overwhelming disappointment came as the quality of the animation decreased.

Episode 2, the immediate reaction and high responses, pushed episode 2 to the response. Jason Demarko (co -author of Tonami and Creative Director at Adult Swim) shared his side of what happened in three deleted jobs now in Bluesky:

“It is okay, we knew that this would happen. I cannot talk about what happened, but we were involved and the options did not end and nothing broadcast and we call it a loss, b) Just finish and the air EP 1 and leave it incomplete or c) running all four, and all “

“After waiting for a long time, it makes sense for people to be crazy. Unfortunately, I cannot tell them who they blame … but someone is definitely a mistake here, and we all had to do our best when things explode. Perhaps others had taken different options. We have done the best of our power.”

“But again, a lot of PPL worked hard in this offer and I didn’t think that only one or two people should be the reason that he did not see light today. Maybe this is the wrong option, I don’t really know. But these people have the right to feel distress and disappointment. I am happy that you are digging it.”

Only a few additional details have appeared in the six months since the Demarco function. This includes the identities of a “person or two” who were claimed to have installed it.
