        And the homosexuality wasn’t because the author was progressive for the time or anything, he just wasn’t interested in drawing a man’s ass.

      It’s been a long time since I’ve read it, but it’s definitely goofier. The main story elements made their way into the later film/tv adaptations, so it’s not all jokes and slapstick, but those elements are present in the manga while they’re absent from most of its adaptations (until now)

      The first episode of the new series is basically a panel-for-shot adaptation of the manga in both story and style. It’s definitely a lot more cartoony than the previous anime films and series.
