I guess it depends on what you want to experience. There are merits to rewatching a series you really enjoyed knowing the outcome. You may pick up on themes/ideas you didn’t notice the first time. There is the chance that altough the major plot points will be the same, how we get there may be different due to it being a more faithful adaptation.

I’m glad the first 2 episodes drop on today, because episode 1 piqued my interest but didn’t fully grab me. I’ve been seeing a lot of comparisons to NGNL, COTE, and Kakegurui which I think are quite fair, but the MC still seems different enough to not be a copy and paste job

I 100% respect your stance. I do try and separate the artist from their art when possible, but everyone has their limits.

I just finished my rewatch in anticipation for this remake, so far it seems pretty good. I assume it’s going to be more faithful to the manga.

The originals aesthetic will always appeal more to me, but there does appear to greater detail going into the earlier parts of the series i.e wounds.

Im digging it so far, solid animation but also quite dialogue heavy. It’s scratching some of that monogatari itch.
