Top 10 Biggest Differences in Scott Pilgrim Takes Off 

Oh yes! I loved every minute of it! ❤️❤️❤️

Knives did get the highlights punched out of her hair in the final battle.

No. I straight up feel insulted by it

Hate

10/10 series. Only fake fans hate this series.

PRECISELY!

It also developed the characters outside Scott Pilgrim, since he’s already fleshed out as the protagonist. And making his future self the villian, a big risk that turns out to be a very genius move. Cause considering Scott’s social life, he was already set on a path to be a villian, considering how the people around him treated him, yet we saw how well they were better off with him gone, yet even they missed while he has gone and still being revealed to still be decent people at the same time, even helping Ramona find him. Though I could see them realize Older Scott made realize how that taking their friend for granted may have world destroying consequences, likely leading them to treat Scott better.

then they should have called the show "Ramona Flowers vs Her Feelings" so people didn't bother with it.

@@CyclopsWasRight616 Or Scott Pilgrim's Social life, due to giving the people in Scott's life more deph.

I didn't liked it, where is lisa? crash and the boys? where is the adaptation of the comics? Don't get me wrong, on its own, it's lacking, but in an 'alternate universe' where we see the comics fully adapted, then 'Scott Pilgrim Takes Off,' it could have been incredibly enjoyable.

⁠@@GuilhermeSantos-wy8kfI think we’re probably gonna get a sequel, that ending was either a throwaway gag or a possible setup. Justice for Lisa and Chau’s Dad and yeah I was kinda wondering why Crash and The Boy wasn’t.

@@freesmith4990 Man, they fumble It, there will 3 fandoms. Comics, Movie and Anime fans. It's Sad, i do Hope that people get to read the comics. Only them maybe people Will get it

And also, to say that Wallace is great in the show it's ridiculous. In the comics he actually cares about Scott. Probably the Wallace that is great is the old one, that's from the original timeline.

Okay good it continues from the movie not from the comics

Oh then i can continue to watch, because the change in the story is so lame to me, Gideon is so badass in the original comics.

@@animemaster478965321 I get where your coming from. Like I said I don’t wanna spoil anything, but the anime is an alternate timeline where it focuses on Ramona, but also acts as a sequel to the movie and the comics, as in the end we do see what happened to Scott, Ramona, and there friends. In this “timeline” where the anime takes place, is different to what happened in the “og timeline” where Scott defeats Gideon and such.

So basically it’s what if series

@@Karlebow571 I mean kinda? The anime is canon to the movie, like I said I don’t wanna spoil it but if you watch it you’ll see what I mean

It should be Ramona Flowers takes off.

@@aspieotaku3580bitch no

No shit? I thought it was live action based on the real actors portrayed by the characters. Caption stupid.

Lol, people are asking that? Ita an anime if the creators call it one. That being said, the studio does not matter that much. Most cartoons are animated in Korea or Japan and no one calls it anime. At this point, in the west anime is anything the creators chose to call anime. Yet in japan, where anime means cartoon, Scott, Naruto, Cowboy bepop and Avatar are all cartoons. Hahah

Well he didn’t really lose, he was removed mid fight

Didn’t need expansion, this is fucking alternate bullshit. Fucl this anime. So stupid

If it’s like FF seven remake all over again, and a fun fact, this is a sequel to the comics the old Scott is the one from the comics

​@@maximdionne233This is absolutely a FF7R situation.

@@maximdionne233 not really ff7 stayed true to their orginal plot with minor changes until the end. And they were up front that it was going to have a different story. They didn't kill cloud on the first mission and say the rest of the game didn't happen anymore

@@SB0083 Lol this is absolutely NOT a situation. FF7 Remake doesn't erase Cloud from the picture. It only adds to the existing lore.

I think it was done well. Her hair changing shows her fixing the problems with her exes. Also the best way to become better is for you to learn to live with your exes. Not get your bf to murder them. That's why she ended up divorcing scott.

They did it on the flash backs, her hair length changes

@@mrcoolandcutedude true

I don’t know what you’re talking about? She changed her hair each episode, at different times, different colors. I think the anime is amazing, but I still love the comics and movie more

I just hope Comic Scott didn’t get divorced

Yea, I had never read the books before this. But I decided to read them because I needed something to do before this, and it definitely is better to read them before watching this.

I'd go for movie, then books, then series. The movie gives you a taste of the series, the comic is the main course, and the show is the expansion.

The show confirms something the author said on Tumblr about the Exes' fates in the comics: none of them actually died, they just respawned where they came from and didn't bother going back to Toronto because it wasn't worth the hassle.

We stan canonical bisexuals.

It was

I guess she finally decide to passed her bifurious

That was more pandering

Thing is, Roxie is still the only woman on the league. Even though it was indeed a phase the relationship was still VERY MUCH REAL. Meaning real ups and downs, you have to confront and apologize for them on your part to move on which Ramona does beautifully to the point Roxie can still be a friend.

I missed the vegan police the most, though. and more of the girl gay relationships. But. We had a Black character with screen time. We got to see Gideon... being human? Idk. It's just. It's. Wild. It's wild that he could get such new stories out of these characters, while still keeping it to both Scott and Romana being both, traumatized dumbasses in love. Like. Scott is silly. And yeah, Romana is kinda like "the brains," of the too. But she's as dorky, sweet, and silly as he is in moments. Like. Scott's the dog, Romans more a cat. Takes a while to warm up, but SUPER loyal to her little golden retervier. And for to be as obsessed with him. Idk. It was nice to see the role reversal. Maybe it should have been called "Romona," but. It's all about Scott even when he's not there. Idk. I just. I was bummed at first, felt the cut a bunch of stuff... till I got to the end of the first episode. And then I realised? They did that on purpose. To take me on a new adventure. And I'm so glad they did

I mean the movie and the graphic novels referenced Sonic in them too. The movie used sound effects from the games and in the books ,in book 4 the logo on the first few pages referenced the Sonic 2 logo and when Roxie died she burst into animals instead of coins referencing how the robots die in the old Sonic games. Scott and Kims first band before Sex Bob-bomb was literally called Sonic & Knuckles. Even in the physical re-release of the video game the alternate cover has Scott doing the Sonic Adventure 1 pose. If anything it would have been weird if the anime didn't reference sonic at all lol.

Actually you are not far off from the mark, prior to the "movie shoot" there are mild meta comics poking fun at comic and movie. The "movie" script, is supposed to be the retelling of their (older scott and ramona's) events which would be the movie. As well, only comic and Netflix show briefly hinted that Gideon/Gordon may also be the "rival" school jerk who kidnapped Kim before Scott dumped her. A lot of obscure connect the dots between the three that read way to deep and to obvious at the same time.

Well the "movie" director is called Edgar Wrong. They couldn't make it more obvious.

The Sonic reference in episode 1 sets it up as the movie and the anime are two different things that have the same focal point(best example is Heroes when reference "butterflies ").

The fact that you're repeating a script proves that you were never a fan to begin with. As someone who IS a fan of the original, this version was absolute perfection.

@@TheTrailburner fair enough, in the end, I wasn’t expecting a whole new take on the story. So I was a little butt hurt about it. I’ll try again, this time with an open mind.

​@@TheTrailburnerbe quite u nimrod

It's not the same

​@tvirus9369 still happens , I think they are insinuating that each one is a different universe, the "Scott from the future" is exactly from the time the live action released he said "13 years ago" video game, live action, anime all different universes... my theory though

Anagram for Ya

On the plus side, we DID get an appearance of Mobile, Wallace's psychic boyfriend, at the very least.

This was acknowledged in the movie as well.

Was he ever cast?

@@Megakiller538 I wish. But if he is, we needed someone who is young and unfamiliar. Remember Link and Zelda are only teens when their journey begins.

10.) Yes 9.) Half yes. The film shouldn't be a lore dump 8.) NO 7.) Yes, but it shouldn't rely on fanservice. 6.) Same as the 7 5.) Yes, but don't make him a chatterbox. Either minimize his dialogue or make him communicate non-verbally. 4.) And? 3.) Yes on the epic-adventure, no on the gritty realism 2.) Aside from Skyward Sword, they never really had much of a relationship 1.) Tom Holland was never cast to begin with. Also Tom Holland is 27 now.

@@a.jthomas6132 you do know both got reincarnated into versions who can also be kids, right? in fact, in the Wind Waker branch of the timeline, both were kids/pre-teens they can be either kids pre-teens, teenagers, young adults and also full fledged adults the possibilities are endless, especially if they are planning multiple sequels that could use such possibilities

The marketing never implied it was going to be a faithful adaptation of the narrative. Especially seeing as there were scenes in the trailer that weren't in the original graphic novel. You're just upset that you didn't get the exact same storyline for the third time in a row.

@trailobyte474 The trailers for the show put more emphasis on Scott Pilgrims' presence, playing in his band, him oggling over Romona, and the evil exes were being conveyed as antagonist to Scott. The new scenes don't really convey that it would be a total detraction since even the most faithful manga to anime adaptions add new scenes that are not from the source material. Just to be clear, I don't have a problem that this show was going to a what-if scenario and then shift focus to Romona as the primary protagonist. In fact, I like the show and found it very entertaining. I just found that the advertisement for this show is misleading. It's like if there's a trailer for a new Spider-Man show that showcases the superhero fighting supervillains and dealing with relatable personal issues, but when the show does come out, it's actually focuses more on Harry Osborn and his own view on the wall crawler and his best friends escapades. If the advertisement is going to convey one thing, people are immediately going to expect it to be that thing. If it doesn't become that thing, then it's just a lie.

@@deadpoolrockz6410 The trailers did NOT convey that. There was very little dialogue in the trailers. There was never any indication that it wasn't going to be a 1/1 faithful adaptation especially seeing as they included scenes that weren't in the original graphic novels. You placed your own expectations on the vague marketing and were upset that you didn't get the interpretation that you wanted. Furthermore, Brian Lee O'Malley stated before the release that the anime was going to be different. You just listened to what you wanted to hear.

I think the misleading is purely intentional

It was bait and switch fuck what anyone else says, the film was lighting in a bottle Can't capture it twice nuff said

There well not be a season 2

It wasn’t Netflix meddling. It was the author’s decision

EXACTLY. I hate how they mislead us with the marketing for this show. I also hate how it almost feels at times like they reduced Scott down to a simple MacGuffin in his own fucking show.

Honestly, him vs his exes wouldn't make much sense now.

Maybe as a season 0?

Yes that’s Is true too many endings in one

I thought that originally towards the second episode but trust me either way it is still a great show

​@@kasu4no its not

@@Twostraightwhitemalesreact to each their own then, everyone I’ve talked to has said they’ve really liked it. It’s ok if you don’t though.

Right now

Oh so that does mean the comic books ending is useless since Scott and Romona didn't work out their relationship and Scott hasn't changed at all and is actually worse as a person

@@jaydenlopez3636 no they just had a tiff and Romona wanted to spend some time apart (she still loved him). Scott has always been an idiot so he took it as she was leaving him. And since they got married it was worse than when Envy Adam’s broke up with him so he did what he did causing this “sequel” anime. Doesn’t mean the comic book ending is useless.

​@@tristin3507wait didn't she say she would never get back with him also Scott should know better by now but no they destroyed his character

@@jaydenlopez3636 I think the future one, but not the present Romona. And not really with Scott’s character
