Same. What a downgrade.
I don't like how emotional he is. His happy attitude in the pilot made him so much harder to read but in the show he's constantly letting you know how upset he is
i actually liked the pilot and really hated the final show, idk what changed but it just feels more... muddled? like every character became the same person, all the themes muddied together, all the ideas became a big sludge thrown in your face rather than a concrete plot and concrete character types
The Pilot was an independent production and thus didn't have the typical constraints that a professional studio production has to abide by. On the flip side, the production values for the A24 show are vastly superior to the Pilot
no frick that, the "it's constricted by the network" or "it doesn't have the budget" are two of the most commonly thrown out excuses, but they only apply to shit like censorship or bad animation or something
if you have creative ideas, no amount of meddling will destroy that
I wasn't talking about budget. I was talking about things like pop culture references which independent productions are more free to do but studio productions aren't
It feels too glamorized. It makes everyone look the same. It tries being too much at the same time. It tries too hard to get the attention of shippers/fangirls/etc. It tries too hard at being a musical without getting what exactly makes a musical good (too many songs over quality, songs nauseatingly getting shoved in every corner). One thing that particularly made me dislike it (asides from the glaringly obvious red flags of a emanciated angel and demon show that tries too hard to coddle us into thinking Lucifer is a perfect bean baby even though theoretically it's still very possible he can wind up being an butthole) was Sir Pentious' infantilization (which it at least tried to solve only to make the character even more of a joke). The tact of showing heavy topics like SA feels as blunt as a frying pan hitting you in the face. It makes Charlie look like a dumb illuded person (ie: the classic quirky female protag trope starting from Tangled) without getting what makes a Disney princess a Disney princess (not being a literal princess for starters). Vaggie is just there to serve as the ploy to make Charlie look good, hardly a personality.

You didn't even try, bro. Absolutely vapid post like the rest of it.
Hard disagree, and strictly because it's awesome seeing him have vulnerabilities to the point that his overconfidence in himself near gets him one shotted by Adam.
I would be okay with Alastor being humbled if it wasn't so early
Isn't he supposed to be the endgame villain? How are we meant to take him seriously now if we can see how much of a jobber he is
He was never that powerful to begin with, only in comparison to other Overlords. At the end of the day he still doesn't hold a candle to Charlie, Lucifer, or higher ranking angels. Alastor's strength is his cunning, not his power.
moronic morons like you are the reason shonen can get so fricking stupid >ONCE CHARACTER LOSE... THEN HOW CAN CHARACTER WIN AFTER THAT??????????????? DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUHHHHHH *slobbers*
It's almost like a cunning trickster exploiting whatever opportunity he can to come out on top is more interesting to follow than an omnipotent wizard who can never be more than a secondary character.

Wow you just said a whole lot of nothing

Could have fooled me.
Animation is more detailed and cleaner, it's not even a contest.
It is cleaner.
pilot animation is way more fluid.

I could go on but I'm tired.

you don't even have to try to show the obvious Valentino/Angel stuff that the song constantly shoves either

Brush your teeth dayum
No
ironically the differences are negligible to zero impact for me
