The good thing about Scott not being there most of the series is that all the other characters get to develop. Knives finally got a character that just isn’t obsessed with Scott.
Lil bro didn't read The comics
I did always feel bad for her in the movie. I think a lot of people forget that she is just a 17 year old kid.
@@kinguiz Knives’ character arc in a nutshell:
-Dates Scott as an underage teen
-Gets cheated on and then dumped by Scott in favor of Ramona
-Gets angry and obsessed with Scott
-Fights Ramona for dating Scott
-Obsesses over Envy and gets beat up for it
-Hangs out with the group and makes relationships with Kim and others
-Turns 18 and finally moves on from Scott
Her whole story is literally being the victim of unhealthy obsessions. Like my guy, what comic are you reading.
The further Knives development just more lampshades the whole why was she so obsessed with Scott problem. Fundamentally Kim, Envy, Knives and Ramona are still just created to inexplicably have Scott dripping in talented, beautiful women. You can have Knives grow out of that in the six minute video above but we don't understand whatever lack of confidence caused it.
And Steven STILL doesn't contribute anything meaningful
I love that they did justice to Knives. She became more than just an underaged 17-year-old fangirling over her fake boyfriend.
She was already more than that. At the end in the books she becomes a mature young woman who knows her worth. She literally tells Scott that she's too good for him.
@@thehermit8618but that happened in the movie too anyway?
@@henrydikes6704At the end, yeah. But throughout the movie, she was still obsessed with Scott
@cranburrey The Movie & Comic are better than this pathetic excuse for an adaption.
@@dr.feelgoodmalusphillips2475 Cry about it
Ellen Wong's still got it. She made Knives sound so adorable and funny.
The Japanese version gave her more of a typical young anime girl voice, which isn’t a bad thing, but the softer, slightly lispy voice Ellen does for her feels a little more uniquely fitting to her character.
Of course she always adorable and funny.
SHES A BABY 🥺
@@stoodmuffinpersonal3144Yeah. Scott’s a real jerk. Knives handled it pretty well though.
@@mat7083Wow as if that wasn't the point that you weren't supposed to like him as the other characters in comics and movies called him out for it
Honestly seeing Knives moving on quickly while Ramona goes on a Scott hunt is a dichotomy I didn’t expect from the series!
Teenage crushes work like that. It wouldnt surprise me her losing Scott was exactly what she needed to take a good look at their "relationship" and realize he was kinda crummy and that she deserves better. Not to mention he budding talent as a musician and newfound friendship with SBO might have helped vent her feelings about him. The unfortunate truth about these narratives is that its easy to love everyone but you can out your attention on all of them at once or you lose the plot so things like Knives character arc could only be implied
@@thehermit8618knives quite literally tells scott that him disappearing was what she needed
@@thoet7270 deadass
knives isn't in love with scott, she's in love with the idea of being in love with scott
@@junkmail2223
Huh?
I love how Stephen and knives were super close in this. They remind me of a brother and sister dynamic
i bet it if it was Kim you would've said something different lol
@@TheEmperorRaidou ???
@@Miles-i1q my bad. I meant Kim
way better than them dating in the comic
@@grief8060 they nvr dated. Just hooked up once (while drunk)
5:17 it took me an absurdly long time to realize the red splatter here wasn’t blood, it was him punching the highlights out of her hair 💀
Didn't envy's drummer did that too
@@urbainleverrier1 if you’re talking about the movie, it was Todd (the bassist) who punched her; I haven’t read the comics yet so idk if anything similar happens there
@@somerandomguy29bro did NOT read the comics 💀💀😘
@@spooked1938 Oh man, I completely forgot about the chick with the robot arm lol.
I swear I remember it being todd who done it.
Oh my god you're right
Glad she had a bigger role than the comics and the movie, this show is so cool
Her role was not bigger here tbh
She did not have a bigger role here than in the comic lmao
I guess it wasn't a bigger role, but she's more of a character that stands on her own now for sure
@@igornascimm is some aspects yeah, but it did felt a bit rushed. A her change of look in the finale made barely any sense. Was more like fan service.
Dont get me wrong tho, I binge watched the whole thing because it was really good but some characters for sure got the short end of the stick.
Way more screen time in the comic
Knives is a victim. And she needs to be protected by the fandom at all costs
for real
Too late she’s already in our sight
Can I just say that Knives actually joining Sex Bob-omb in the end was such a brilliant idea!
Someone who gets it.
There are already several arts of this Loli
I think it’s nice that Knives sparks when she’s playing music. Considering how sparks indicate love I guess Knives finally found her calling (and it doesn’t involve SCOTT 😡)
It also makes a ton of sense for her character in the comics! It's pretty heavily implied throughout that a large part of why Knives liked Scott in the first place was because he introduced her to a music scene she had previously not known about; in the final chapter, she's still just watching them play, but rather than being enthusiastic, her response is a dubious 'you guys have so much potential!' It's pretty easy to read her as always having had the real ear for music, so it's nice that in this timeline she gets to do something with it.
I thought it was a way less uncomfortable version of the scene in book 4 where Knives and Kim, a minor and an adult respectively, make out! But I think I like this explanation way better! You do you, Knives! Show everybody that you're a strong, independent woman who don't need no man or… woman!
I find it frustrating that nobody has mentioned how cool her voice-acting was.
I feel like the actress had the time of her life recording this. And it sips through the screen and sound.
late reply but AGREE ellen wong CARRIED i hope she gets more voice acting work in the future!
so true. whole cast did amazing. it’s so comforting hearing everyone talk it’s all so soft and calming
@@jjschneider8566and I love the interviews where they talking about how much of a blast they had with the movie (I’m basing this only off of Cera and Evans, but I can imagine the rest of the cast sharing the sentiment)
Fr, her smile is contagious. I love her so much
If I remember correctly, Knives was Ellen Wong's first acting role, so it probably means a lot to her. But I agree, she gave 110% in this.
I don’t think Knives and Steven even talked to each other in the movie, I love the friendship they have here. She’s got so much more to do than she did in the movie and comic.
He does talk to her when trying to convince Scott to go to the battle of the bands.
Same as Gordon and Julie
Is Scott here, you know what, he just left
They had a great friendship in the comic- they were together so much Julie, Young Neil, and others like Scott thought they might be romantically attracted to each other in Volumes 3-6. They would always have fun hanging out together in parties, he would sneak her into bars etc. But it was more of a super fun brother sister dynamic that was nice to see, and they're just super close. It was implied he told her he was gay before anyone else, and he was the one who gave her the wake-up call that Scott ain't that great and cheating etc.
Loved the added music dynamic the show added though, they already had so much fun chemistry and the music element added so much more to Knives's character and their relationship.
@@jeremygeller9145 that’s Wallace :b
She’s so cute. Liked her dynamic with Stephen
I loved it too. They're like eachother's found sibling
i agree
I ship them
@@christophercrossland7475she's 17 and he's 23. and gay.
don't be gross
I really hope they do S2 that has a better dynamic with knives and Scott as band mates and friends.
Protect this bundle of joy at all costs
Tell that to the lewd artist.
@@thefirstofthelastones8952
What lewd art?
@@multiverse_media2023 You know how these things work... A franchise gets popular and a bunch of low life losers like to draw erotic fan art of the female characters because like I said they're losers.
she is 17 dude not 7
@@brezio5251But she's innocent and beautiful
This series did Knives so much justice compared to the original
and people still only want the original to be animated. Which it should, but it's kinda hard to have it stand while this exists too.
I'm re-reading the comics right now, they're good (better than a lot of people give them credit honestly) but they're definitely a product of the mid-2000s. I think the ship has sailed for a completely faithful adaptation, if it got adaptated I think there would definitely still be changes.
@@Electronica27Imagine people wanting the source material.
@@joefoto3243 yeah fucking boring lmfao, glad this is evolving and not rehashing the same shit.
The original comics do Knives extremely well, better than this series to be honest.
I love Stephen and Kim's relationship with Knives in anime. They all barely tolerate her in the movie.
Stephen and Knives are close friends in the comics too, though we don't see as much of their interactions as in the anime. But they're close enough other characters suspected they were dating (they were not).
I think the movie has everyone act more apathetic towards each other than the comics.
Let’s admit it, knives chau is the cutest character in this series
Who’s agree?
She stole the opening credits when she pops out and waves for sure.
me
Best character than ramona or any of the other characters
You thought it would be just an animated re-hash of the movie, but it was I…”Scott Pilgrim Takes Off”.
…All Jojo references aside, this show’s plot caught me completely off guard and was absolute gas from start to finish. Anyone agree?
It’s been a joy ride seeing an expansion to the Exes and side characters, Roxy is my personal favorite development, but honestly I want more Scott.😢
But this doesn’t deter my excitement for season 2.
SONO CHI NO SADAME!!!! JOOOOOOOOOOOJO!!!!!!!!!!
@@Joe-ft4qm I think it's less lifeless and more not matching to the animation.
Cause they gave the same performance as the movie imo.
Maybe you're right. I didn't watch enough of it to know exactly what was wrong with the VA. But, one episode is enough to know that something is very wrong with it. @@JD_and_Gaming
Same!!
1:41 is probably my favorite scene in the whole anime. This moment marks a growth for Knives that she wouldn't have experienced with Scott if he was around at this time. She grows past her obsession with Scott and uses music as an outlet, first going from Scott's base to making her own sound with the piano and synth, which is represented by the synth sounds that are playing while she and Kim are playing. I just find the scene to be beautifully crafted.
2:39 The jumping in the background was the cutest thing ever
That part was so adorable and I keep replaying that
4:55 I love how knives immediately checked up on ramona instead of scott which really shows her character growth and how she moved on from her obsession with scott pilgrim
2:40 LOVED this small bit where they both freak out lol
I just love that her eyes are just big dots, simple yet expressive
Knives and Stephen give me such wholesome Little Sister/Big Brother vibes I love it
Knives is the adorable little sister I would’ve have. She’s so cute, with full of cheers and high spirits.
Same.
shes like 17-18 not 10
@@brezio5251 I know, but I still see her like a little sister. Like Stephen and Knives.
@@brezio5251but compared to the rest of the cast and the show’s target audience she’s still pretty young and innocent
@@alexsiemers7898 shows target audience is 12+. you cant possibly tell me shes more innocent then a 12-13 yo lol
Knives in this series is so good. She's just a little less developed than the comics version but I love her new arc of loving herself and her music after scott dies. I think my favourite scene of the show is her jamming out with Kim. It's so beautiful visually, sonically and thematically I just gush.
I do hope they do a s2 to develop her and Scott a bit better. The comics was a bit rough around the edges and there needed to be some things there but I do understand the sentiment.
Imagine when you go completely excited to meet the person you love and already has a mate. Oh dear,
WE ALL ARE KNIVES CHAU
Jokes on you, I'm aromantic.
I'm asexual
@@ChinoriDesu awesome
KNIVES to meet you. 🔪
Get it? 😂😂
@@marisethandrade4778 Lmao
AYO THE "BREAD MAKES YOU FAT" REFERENCE
I was not prepared for how adorable Knives would be
5:17 HE PUNCHED THE HIGHLIGHTS OUT OF HER HAIR!!!
i was waiting for young neil to say it 😭
I thought it was blood the whole time
Knives was so adorable in this adaption. Still easily one of my favorite characters.
Knives Chau was already my favorite character, but this made her the cutest.
Really loved how they just wear their movie costumes in the last episode for no reason whatsoever, especially Knives since her dyed hair is actually an important part to her character
I’m glad that knives matured out of Scott quicker in this show.
Becomes more independent.
Just noticed 4:05 the song playing in the background is the song Knives and Kim were playing. So fitting, as they’re both huge moments for Knives’ growth
I'm here for the Stephen and knives theater camp synergy. Its so fun
Scott was in the wrong for cheating on this adorable ball of sunshine
he was in the wrong for dating her in the first place!
cause yknow. hes 23. and shes 17. and shes young and impressionable and immature and
@@KIIROCORE yea true so in a way Scott was seeming like in that moment kinda creepy
@@KIIROCORE She wanted him, and she literally spent her time and days stalking this man until he gave in. Also 17 is old enough to know what you want so i could careless what the law is plus he never had bad intentions with any of the women he dated as much of an asshole he is, he respects all of their boundaries and decisions
@@TeaTimeTablehave you...read the comic? she didn't stalk him until after they already broke up
he started dating her because he wanted something easy, he's a total scumbag who used knives
@@shelfenthusiast I did I finished it she stalked him before and after and Ramona as well, yeah he’s a scumbag.
Knives was aiming her resentment at the wrong person literally.
And I also hate when the narrative of 17 girl dates slightly older guy it’s viewed as creepy but the Persona 5 protagonist for example is a 17 year old guy who can date women between 20-32 make it make sense.
3:33 This is..emotional business…
EMOTIONAL BUSINESS 🎶
CAN I GET A WITNESS🎶
@@grassysnowball *S T O P .*
0:19 melts my heart every single time
5:19 - he punched the highlights out of her hair........... he punched the highlights out of her hair again!!
Older Scott, you are incorrigible.
Knives got to really shine in this series. She's adorable and needs to be protected.
Yes at all costs
This show led to some interesting pairings! I loved seeing characters like Knives and Stephen ACTUALLY interact for the first time
Lucas and Gideon, Gideon and Julie, Todd and Wallace, that small bit with Roxie and Kim...I could go on.
Theyre actually besties in the comics too! They hang out a ton, and scott even thinks theyre together at one point (they arent, knives laughs at the accusations, stephen is gay). I was always bummed that their friendship wasnt shown in the movie, the show was so healing
I love knives’s character in this much more than the live action, she actually has her own personality beyond just being ‘Scott’s crazy ex’
In the comics as well
Steven stepping up as a good positive supportive older friend/mentor makes me so happy.
Knives is the cutest little button. And her laughing at Scott and Ramona's AK field is hilarious.
5:43 “yay”
Am I crazy or is her jamming out sesh with Kim a nod to their chemistry in the comic / that one route in the game?
I was waiting for them to make out.
I felt that too
@@SaiyanGamer95okay buddy slow down
@@Miles-i1qi still ship kim and knives tho…
@@Miles-i1qit happens at one point
I love her getting to have her own discovery of love and moving on from Scott but man did she deserve more screen time. It likely would have clashed a little with the story they were telling about Ramona and how much she wouldn’t give up on Scott but still. That little bit where she gets to tell Scott how she’s grown is so sweet but we only got to see snippets of her development! I’d gladly take a whole episode or OVA dedicated to the adventures of Knives and Stephen
4:31 Look at Scott in the subspace suitcase!😆
How did he fit in ramonas purse?
1:24 that lil "whoo!" 10/10
I really enjoy how they did knives in this show. Like there’s more to her than just the Chinese high schooler who is obsessed with Scott. Like she seems a little more normal and chill and kinda have a more fleshed out character than in the movie
I'm so glad that she got stuff to do in the series without it being linked to her enfantuation with Scott
I love that they all got their classic looks for the finale
One of the best things this anime did to improve the overall story: It gave the side characters more time to shine
Like Knives, for instance, she got more time to speak and more involvement with the overall plot in the show. Given how she was in the film and the comics, while still having an important role, her involvement was lessened due to all the other side characters presented.
That proves why a show is better for character development when you have a big cast of Characters that are all equally important to the story as a whole in some way.
Another thing I loved is how the show presented more context on Ramona’s relationships with her exes and how they made her the central character of what many thought would be an animated recreation of the movie when this essentially became an Unofficial Sequel to the Film
That did well but the comics do a lot more other things better
2:47
And the meme continues.
She’s the most adorable thing ever
I really love the animation style for this show
Honestly enjoyed the entire Steven and Knives dynamic in the show.
This show completely whiplashed me with its plot considering that I was thinking it was gonna be some combination of the comics and movie.
Knives is adorable in this series. So glad she got to develop her character and find a different passion that defines her more than just being obsessed with another character.
2:40 the jump and her noises😭😭 she's so adorable
Glad knives join the group as the pianist
Julie and knives are officially my girls I love both of them and I would die for them
KNIVES BEING A FUCKIN GREMLIN FOR 6 MINUTES
knives getting over scott in the anime so quickly didd feel a little uncharacteristic of comic her, but just enjoying the anime as what it is, she's very cute. also the kim x knives chemistry is real i thought theyd end up together.
Because she had more time away from Scott doing things for herself, the obsession most likely died. That along with figuring out on her own what Scott did.
Also the age gap between Kim and Knives is…. Yikes
It’s funny how she was mad at Ramona but didn’t care that Matthew was the one who actually killed Scott
Kim x Knives is a problematic ship though lmao
@@DarnHooligan
Huh?
As somebody who wasn't a fan of the original Scott Pilgrim, I genuinely loved what this anime did for her. Seeing her grow from Scott's death and find a passion for music that was all her own, growing closer to Steven who felt like a great neurotic mentor to her. She's such an adorable lil cinnamon roll, and I hope she makes it big on Broadway. Or at least, the Toronto equivalent to Broadway.
Knives was too good and pure to be there
She's an innocent high-school girl
Knives is absolutely adorable and she must be protected of all times
Knives is like “Finally, I’M IN ANIME!!!”
0:11
[● Knives really needed this. Finally she gets to actually grow up and find her own identity. Seeing her start indulging in her hobbies, strengthening bonds with new people (her dynamic with Stephen, getting along with Ramona), and overall being own her person. She gets to take the driver's seat for once, and I couldn't be happier!]
And it's Kim who gets her into the band. Let's not forget that.
Her dynamic with Stephen was in the comic as well, I’m super glad they continued their bond here and giving her the music element- it works perfectly! Even though Knives got the closure in the last Volume discovering herself and refused Scott’s advances the music thing made her so much more unique.
@@flerken4233What?
In the comics, Scott proposes to her, even after all the story?
I haven't read it, please explain.
@@Δ-Δ-Δ-Δ Volume 5, the second to last volume, ends with a cliffhanger with Ramona teleporting away leaving Scott no notes besides her goodbye words telling him it was fun(Scott assumes she went back to Gideon but she didn't in the comic)
So Scott is super depressed over her leaving for several months in Volume 6. Wallace, just like the show, gives questionable advice to the dumb brained Scott, telling him he should casually sleep with people. So Scott idiotically and very awkwardly tries asking each of his exes for a casual fling.
Knives spent Volumes 2-4 being kinda just a comedic side character who is obsessed with Scott, but when Scott goes to her in Volume 6 she has finally (through events of Volume 5) gotten over him and rejects him kindly, understanding he's not the ideal she envisioned and in a bad spot. Although she didn't mind a last minute make out with him before she left for university, which was a comedic page of them recoiling from the kiss with giant text on the page that said "BUT IT WAS HORRIBLE FOR EVERYONE. AND THAT INCLUDES YOU"
Extra info on the Knives and Stephen friendship in the comics- Knives is closest to Stephen out of anyone in the entire series, from like Volume 3-6 she's hanging out and laughing with Stephen in most of her background appearances and he's the one who invites and sneaks her into parties and bars. He's also the one who broke the news to her in Volume 5 that it's not Ramona's meddling that stole Scott, Scott is just crappy. Both Julie and Young Neil suspect that they might have mutual romantic attraction in earlier volumes because they chill together so much, but Knives laughs that off in her early Volume 6 appearance that of course not- which why she found it so funny is later revealed at the end of the volume that Stephen is gay and dating another guy whose name I don't remember(He was a background character that had a couple blunt and dry comedic lines).
Please tell me I'm not the only one that took this long to notice how her eyes are drawn in a different style from everyone else.
It's because she's the youngest
I dig that they gave Knives a spot in the band. She rocks at the keyboard. 🎹
They should of animated her dad too.
Maybe season 2 if it's ever a thing
And her sister.
That bummed me out, her dad was funny.

1:57 this is peak
Fucking true :3
Knives was always done dirty on the other versions of the story, but she got the development she deserved sooo much in the anime! Love this tiny cinnamon roll. She needs to be protected at all costs!
I think her development in the comics is decent. It's a different path since she has to struggle a lot more with moving on (like she says in the anime, Scott being dead allowed her to self-reflect much faster).
Oh my god she's so freaking cute I can't
They made her so adorable in the animated series.
Seeing her on animation still amazing 🤩 loved the show
Good sequel for good story;)😊
Id love a Season 2. I know it doesn't make much sense but I could watch these characters interact in the mose mundane ways and still be entertained.
Maybe another AU? Maybe they *actually* use the subspace highway as a crazy cross-world thing
@@reillymcwritingno none of the Scott Pilgrim Media continuity should ever collide and before you say that it's a sequel no it's not o mally already confirmed that the show was it's own thing and every Scott Pilgrim Media is is different universes

Ngl, I am so happy Knives was able to move on from Scott in this, as they said, she's better than him. She's an angel and must be protected.
