Enthusiasm among fans of “The Beginning After The End” has been running high ever since the anime version began airing in early April. While they cherish the well-loved manhwa/web comic adaptation, many have expressed their discontent due to the perceived lack of top-notch animation quality in the anime.
Lately, a petition with more than 50,000 signatures has been accumulated due to fan frustration over the current anime series. But since then, it appears that some fans have become less agitated, adjusting to this new state of affairs for followers of The Beginning After The End, which seems unlikely to alter soon.
Not Meeting High Expectations
Competition Among Manhwa Readers

Lately, it appears that a flood of anime adaptations based on popular webcomics and manhwa series has emerged. This has sparked debates among fans online, as they passionately argue over which adaptation is better. Each group aims to outshine the other by highlighting the superiority of their adaptation, hoping to finally settle questions about quality.
Regrettably, followers of TBATE have been subjected to ridicule due to the unpolished nature of their series thus far. Although The Beginning After The End anime has some subpar animation instances, it generally holds up quite well and doesn’t significantly diminish the overall enjoyment. Nevertheless, merely being adequate isn’t satisfying for many fans who believe that the narrative’s quality deserves superior treatment.
The anime version of TBATE leaves me feeling quite disheartened after all these years of following and reading it. I was thrilled when they announced an adaptation, but now, words fail me to describe my sense of letdown.” – Reddit user Only-Peanut3382 on the series’ animation.
After the weekly episodes end, TBATE viewers remain optimistic about a shift in the storyline or an exciting fight scene that meets their anticipation. Yet, this optimism often transforms into disillusionment for certain fans who voice their feelings on social media and discussion platforms. Some enthusiasts even suggest reading the manhwa as an alternative, humorously stating that it contains more visual panels than the anime itself.
“Conclusion: Read the manhwa.”- Reddit user Sudden-Refuse-7915
In TBATE, instead of counting frames per second (fps), we calculate seconds per frame (spf). This can be a bit alarming.
Adjusting Outlooks
Some Fans Are Giving Up Hope

Despite some fans continuing to express frustration with the initial impact of the TBATE story on new anime viewers, others are more optimistic, suggesting that they can make the most of what they’ve been given, noting that the series seems to be progressing positively.
Compared to numbers 1 through 4, it’s significantly improved. At this stage, I’ll simply appreciate it as it stands.” (Reddit User Puzzleheadedball3340 expressing his thoughts on the quality of the TBATE anime.)
With the anime adaptation spanning over 24 episodes, viewers will have ample time to familiarize themselves with it. Despite some finding the animation less than ideal, the storyline and characters are skillfully adapted enough to deliver an engaging tale. Over time, as more episodes unfold, we might notice a softening of the intense opinions held by many fans due to lack of alternative options.
Enthusiasts of TBATE eagerly anticipate top-tier animation for their beloved series, aiming to witness its growth in popularity and affection among a larger community. In the minds of many fans, subpar animation may hinder the series from achieving fame on the level of other successful anime adaptations like Solo Leveling or Demon Slayer.
While not every series needs to become an enormous sensation with millions of followers, many fans appreciate the show for its own merits – watching their beloved characters and storylines unfold on a grander scale. By this standard, it appears that the show is experiencing some level of success. Western popularity ratings have been inconsistent, but word is that the series has received high marks on streaming platforms in Japan.
In essence, any form of entertainment such as anime is primarily aimed at providing amusement. It’s only to be expected that people who appreciate it will continue to engage, while those who aren’t fond of it will seek out different forms of enjoyment instead.
The Beginning After the End can be streamed on Crunchyroll.
