Anime director Masakazu Hishida, known for his work in Yashahime, InuYasha, Ensemble Star!, recently gave an interview to Mantan Web talking about the currently airing anime adaptation of Taejun Pak and Kim Junghyun’s Viral Hit webtoon.
Hishida, who is currently helming the series, shared insights into the adaptation process of webtoons into anime series in the interview, where he emphasized the unique compatibility between the storytelling of webtoon with that of anime storyboard structures.
While this might not always be the case with other webtoon to anime adaptations, Hishida felt that unlike traditional manga, which often relies on double-page spreads, the one-way scrolling of webtoon is more compatible with anime storyboard structures.
He then went on to back the statement with an example and also highlighted the seamless flow and continuity of storytelling facilitated by this format, likening it to the passage of time in animated sequences.
“It’s completely different from traditional manga.

The highly anticipated live-action adaptation of Satoru Noda’s Golden Kamuy had its opening day stage greeting on Jan 19, 2024, at Toho Cinemas Roppongi Hills in Tokyo.
The cast, including Hiroshi Tamaki, Asuka Kudo, Shuntaro Yanagi, and Ryohei Otani shared their behind-the-scenes experiences and shed light on the challenges encountered during filming.
Since Golden Kamuy is set in the late Meiji era in Hokkaido, revolving around a battle for a substantial Ainu treasure, the filmmakers took on the challenge of capturing the authentic winter atmosphere of Hokkaido, leading to extreme conditions during the shoot.
Yanagi revealed the harsh conditions, stating, “It was a tough shoot; we even had icicles forming in our ears. We used to check with each other, wondering, ‘Are our ears frozen?‘”. Asuka Kudo too added to this, highlighting the persistence of the icy challenge, especially during extended takes.

A dose of 21st century attitude mixes nicely with other winning ingredients in “Kingdom,” a thoroughly entertaining adaptation of Yasuhisa Hara’s hugely popular manga set in China, 245 B.C. Centered on two orphan boys who dream of becoming “the greatest generals on Earth,” this Japanese take on a Chinese wuxia is overwrought at times and too simply plotted at others, but wins through with colorful characters, top-class swordplay and snappy dialogue that’ll especially connect with younger viewers. Energetically directed and co-written by manga-to-screen specialist Shinsuke Sato, “Kingdom” grossed a whopping $50 million in local cinemas earlier this year and ought to perform strongly in limited North American release from August 16.
Taking its thematic cues from literary classics including “The Prince and the Pauper,” and adopting the high-spirited story-telling of action-adventures such as Akira Kurosawa’s “The Hidden Fortress,” “Kingdom” refreshes a familiar tale of heroes emerging from poverty to...
