Reader’s Question:
Why hasn’t God Sider been adapted into an anime? It has armor similar to Saint Seiya and seems like it could have had a successful toy line. Was it too graphic or explicit?
Why Hasn’t God Sider Been Adapted into an Anime?
So, I was just scrolling through some forums
and stumbled upon a question that immediately caught my attention: “Why hasn’t God Sider been adapted into an anime?” I mean, it’s a fair question, right? With that epic armor reminiscent of Saint Seiya, you’d think it would have been a no-brainer for anime studios. Plus, can you imagine the toy line? Kids (and adults!) would go crazy! But then I read the user’s comment about how the storyline took a turn where God Sider and his nemesis, Devil Sider, had to team up to save Earth from annihilation. I can totally see how that might have left fans scratching their heads. It’s like when you’re binge-watching a series, and suddenly the plot twists in such a way that even your popcorn is left in shock. You just sit there, mouth agape, wondering, “Did they really just do that?” I remember a time when I was watching a show with my friends, and out of nowhere, a character we all loved made a questionable alliance. The groans and laughs that erupted in the room were priceless. We couldn’t believe it, but looking back, those moments are what made it memorable. Maybe that’s what happened with God Sider—the unexpected teamwork just didn’t vibe with fans, and it threw a wrench into the whole thing. And let’s not forget the possibility that the themes might have been a bit too graphic or explicit for a mainstream anime adaptation. I mean, there’s a fine line between edgy and over-the-top, right? I remember my friend once tried to introduce me to a series that was all action and gore. I thought I was ready for it, but I ended up munching on way too many snacks to distract myself from the screen. It was an experience, to say the least! At the end of the day, whether it was the story twists or the potential for graphic content, sometimes things just don’t line up for a solid adaptation. But hey, that’s what makes the world of anime so fascinating—there’s always something new to explore or discover. So, what do you think? Have you had any similar experiences with shows that took unexpected turns or left you puzzled? I’d love to hear your stories or any tips on shows that have surprising plot twists in the comments!
