    That’s crazy, considering that pretty much only people who watched the anime would be interested in watching this movie. Between this and the success of Chainsaw Man, I think we’re going to see a lot more manga-to-movie adaptations instead of serial anime.

      I don’t think this is the case. Out of the group of 5 that I went to see it with, I was the only one who had read the manga. What I think will happen is that we will see more final seasons turn into theatrical movie releases, as happened with demon slayer. Most of the western audiences probably wouldn’t watch if they didn’t have the anime adaptation first.
