Scott Pilgrim creator and showrunner of the new Netflix anime Scott Pilgrim Takes Off has responded to fan confusion about the show. The eight-part series begins with a pretty huge twist in its opening episode, before veering into a new direction from both the comics and the Edgar Wright-directed movie.
The decision to flip the story on its head landed the anime adaptation some stellar reviews from critics, but it has left some die-hard fans a bit confused. Indeed, some of the viewer reviews on Rotten Tomatoes have been pretty divisive with people either sharing their disappointment with the twist or waxing lyrical about how much they love it.
