“Scott Pilgrim Takes Off” is a phenomenal stand-alone addition to the franchise as excellent as the many incarnations before it. Amid remakes and reboots, this rare level-up cleverly reexamines its entire story with a profound twist without sacrificing any pieces of its identity.
For the person who already loves the property, the anime will deepen that love; for the uninitiated, or those overwhelmed by the movie’s high-speed pacing, it’s a great entry point—an incredibly entertaining, touching action-comedy.
"Scott Pilgrim Takes Off" is not just a great anime, but one that shows the promise of streaming services in delivering global productions that put together different aesthetics and talents. It is also a fantastic adaptation that proves you can do more than just remake the same thing in a different medium.
Scott Pilgrim Takes Off takes the long road to get to some of its most affecting moments, and it’s not always a smooth one. But it’s full of laughs, brightly sketched gags, and great character work to make things go down easier. And that payoff, disarmingly romantic and emotionally intelligent, still hits like a truck.
It’s very good. .... I’m fairly certain the anime works as a standalone piece that introduces Scott Pilgrim to a new generation of audiences, but its grand design can only truly be realized by audiences who have lived with the original story — along with the many discussions sprung from it — for the past decade.
Insane fights, sparkling animation and a fresh look at an old story — Scott Pilgrim was born to be an anime hero. What a level-up.
While the ending is a major flaw, the series as a whole is still worth your time, mostly due to its wonderful art and performances.
