Makoto Kubota wandered through life, not taking things too seriously or looking too deep within himself. His job as the head of the Izumo Group's youth gang kept him pleasantly occupied with yakuza wars, mahjong and assassinations... Until the day he stumbled upon a strange drug called Wild Adapter that produces bizarre side-effects—including death. Forever changed, Kubota becomes entangled with a drifter named Minoru Tokito, and the two form an unlikely companionship that draws them deeper into the mystery of Wild Adapter...

When I heard Wild Adapter was getting an anime adaptation (or rather, an OVA), I was excited but unfortunately, these two OVAs didn't live up to the expectation. Rather than combining the gritty world built in the manga with violence and philosophy, this seemed to take only the action aspects. I understand that trying to tell a story in just two OVAs is difficult but it disappointed me in this aspect. The art was kind of lacking - the stark contrast from the manga was missing. Overall I would recommend it to people who have already read the manga and want more material.

I honestly don’t understand why people still don’t know the definition of an anime adaptation or what it really means. Please, stop comparing manga to anime or OVA, it’s very wrong 😔. The anime is supposed to be judged for its own delivery, not for how close it sticks to the manga. I think I’ll probably make a forum post about this soon because it’s something that really needs to be said. Now, I haven’t read the Wild Adapter manga (and I’m not really a manga reader), but this anime was legit interesting. The action sequences were pure 🔥, and the animation, plot, and storyline wereall solid. It may not be perfect, but it definitely has that gritty, mysterious charm that pulls you in.
I don’t care how the manga went, what I watched here was good, period. For God’s sake, this is an anime adaptation, so rate it based on what it offers as an anime, not on how it compares to its source. Manga is manga, animation is animation. Respect each medium for what it brings to the table.
Overall, Wild Adapter was a cool, dark, and action-packed ride that deserves to be appreciated for its own work. Definitely worth checking out if you like stylish action and mature storytelling.
