For pacing, aesthetic, writing, and style, the anime runs circles, on its hands, around the live action.

Neither has really great writing. The majority of the episodes in the anime conclude in an unsatisfying and silly way. The whole viscious plotline was so underdeveloped that ending on that plot line was an awful way to end the series. Like that whole storyline could have been removed and it would have improved the writing.

It's just weird that people complain about the live action being campy and unserious when that's exactly what the anime was.

This is the perfect time for the Death Note sequel. It's been long enough for a time skip, and the fans are craving more.

I disagree on both counts.

The whole viscious plotline was so underdeveloped that ending on that plot line was an awful way to end the series.
What was underdeveloped about it?

It's just weird that people complain about the live action being campy and unserious when that's exactly what the anime was.
Did I say either of those things?

limp and boring show that almost felt embarrassed to be associated with the original
This feels like a huge problem with so many reboots or adaptations.

I thought the league of legends show would be dogshit for this exact reason but they actually treated it with respect.

How much effort did it take for season 2 of Altered Carbon, or continuing Lucifer? Netflix rarely goes beyond 1 season for expensive shows. I doubt Witcher will survive past season 2.

They should've just stopped at Season 1 for AC considering what they put out. Netflix definitely has a quick trigger finger though

They've probably determined ending a show after a few seasons regardless of ratings and moving onto a new one is the most profitable. Look at Sabrina. It was still popular at the time of cancellation

I actually agree hard on Vicious. A much, MUCH better antagonist for Spike was Vincent Volaju from the movie.

It's funny that, with the show being canceled, that's officially the ending of the series.

What a way to close it out.

Wasn't the original only one season?
It was one season in two cours. I think there was a break between episodes 13 and 14, and you can see how the ending of episode 13 mirrors the ending of episode 26.
