While previous ‘Scott Pilgrim’ adaptations felt like experiencing different minor frequencies of the same fictional life, Netflix’s new anime series ‘Takes Off’ is operating on a whole new wavelength.

Scott Pilgrim Takes Off is a fantastic adaptation that proves you can do more than just remake the same thing in a different medium.

The entire original cast – including Michael Cera, Brie Larson, Jason Schwartzman and Chris Evans – are back for a dazzling animated reboot of the 2010 movie. It shifts gears and rockets away!

Netflixs Scott Pilgrim Takes Off review: Bryan Lee OMalleys animated retread is now the benchmark all other nostalgic retreads should follow.

Scott Pilgrim Takes off takes the original comic and film in several wild, fascinating, totally fresh new directions, and it all comes down to that ending.

Graphic novelist Bryan Lee O'Malley and writer-producer BenDavid Grabinski say that throughout its three incarnations, "Scott Pilgrim" has maintained a timeless sense of humanity and chaotic, quirky fun.

The new eight-episode anime spin on the graphic novels (and 2011 film) is more than just fan service. It’s vividly animated and an incredibly entertaining, touching action-comedy.
