Three-Body

I was skeptical when started it since it is quite challenging to make adaptation to the book (especially with hype background it was created by thye community). But was surprises with very interesting and quality show. Have no idea why the rating of the anime is so low, maybe something wrong I do not know but I liked it very much and waiting for new episodes to be dubbed to see them.

The only problem I see here is fact that if you did not read the book and have no information about it, the plot could be a little chaotic and probably you do not understand a lot of storylines. But I assume in this case it is not a problem because most of the fans read the books:)

The latest animated adaptation of China's award-winning sci-fi novel "The Three-Body Problem" has become a quick hit online, adding to the list of popular domestically produced animations. Called "The Three-Body Animation," the 15-episode series is based on the second book of famed Chinese writer Liu Cixin's trilogy and has garnered praise from fans online after being released. The two episodes aired so far have gained more than 130 million views combined on Bilibili, with the video streaming site calling the series its "biggest animation investment" in the past few years. The "Three-Body" series is Liu's best-selling apocalyptic space opera trilogy. The trilogy has since gained a massive following in China and around the world, especially after the series' first installment won the Hugo Award in 2015, a year after its English translation was published.

It's probably the three body minecraft version fans that rate this anime series low. Are they hoping for a funding for minecraft version sequal? Lol this is an excillent sci-fi on its own. The anime style itself is not really top notch because i don't think they have the funding but the contents and care to details are fantastic. I am never going to have the patience to read the books so i can't judge how well it is adapted. I am judging after watching all the other tv series versions. The minecraft version is cute and nice effort but i will pass. I'll let my little nephew watch it. Looking forward to more from the makers of this show.

It's a children's animation, with stiff action and shoddy modeling. It's the worst Three-body spin-off yet. The director wants to free himself, completely away from the original, adapted out of the SB script. The director, as a "silicon-based creature" who has adapted this SB script by letting himself go and completely deviating from the original, must be very homesick on Earth. This Three-body problem is undoubtedly a scam animation,A poor work does not matter, what matters is that many people are willing to complain for a SB, "SB also have their reasons ah ", "under such difficult conditions, to make a SB is simply a miracle of song and tears", "you can do it, you do not as good as SB", it is so magical reality.

I was unaware of this attempt to adapt Liu Cixin's Dark Forest until it was referenced on Reddit in a post containing vicious reviews from Chinese viewers. At first, I took this with a grain of salt, as Chinese fans of Liu's work generally impugn on any adaptation that doesn't follow the book to the letter.

I was wrong. These reviewers are spot on.

First, the animation is decent - not the best - definitely underwhelming for something produced in 2022, but was not a barrier for me to enjoy watching.

The problems start in the earlier episodes where small plot points not germane to the larger story are dragged out and expanded to ridiculous lengths. A plot line that should eat up no more than a few minutes somehow monopolizes the better part of some episodes.

The entirety of the final third of the 15 episodes is focused on a ridiculous manufactured subplot that is not in the original books, and can't possibly serve to advance the story in any meaningful way.

The most agreed upon weakness (at least in Western circles) of the original book is not only adapted, but expanded on to nauseating effect.

The cerebral and thought-provoking source material written by Liu being adapted into this cringeworthy amalgam of action and romantic comedy leaves no doubt why the wider fanbase of the Three Body trilogy - Chinese and Western alike, have disowned this monstrosity, and rightfully so.
