This doesn't look like the squatty, muscular Wolverine I know and love. Why does he have to look so jacked? The Japanese location has a lot of potential, but they seem to be squandering it on these super-machines of the week (weak). Personally, I've been enjoying Iron Man more and I have a lot less history with that character... Perhaps that's why.
shareI agree, the wolverine I remember and loved from the comics was a 5'7" stocky powerhouse that was all kinds of brutal... this series makes him seem like a massive pussy, with a girly voice...
shareIf you're talking comics Wolverine, try 5"3" How's THAT for stocky? :-)
Yes, I'm a mormon. That's why I just smoked a pack of Newports and drank three vodka tonics.
Oh no! He's skinnier than you like!
He's still a badass.
And if you want bulky musclebound Wolverine, watch the X-Men anime. He's muscled as hell in that show.
They're both good though.
yeah but they still got it wrong tho, wolverine's about 6' in x-men anime. i'll bet most of the world doesn't understand wolverine is not alluding to wolf, but a ferocious weasel the size of a small bear, known for it's stockiness and badasstitude packed in relatively small size, hence the codename for logan.
shareI think the anime version is supposed to look more like Hugh Jackman did in the first X-Men movie. Tall and lean. And Japanese Anime has a tendency to use long, thin lines when doing character bodies. He also seems like a much younger version of the Marvel character, so that may be why his voice isn't gruff in this one. Granted, I haven't watched this show from the beginning, so I don't know his back-story here.
