Scott Pilgrim Takes Off Shares Behind-the-Scenes Featurette

Scott Pilgrim Takes Off debuted with Netflix earlier this Fall, and now fans have gotten a new behind the scenes look at its development with Science Saru in a special behind-the-scenes featurette! Scott Pilgrim made the leap from the page to the screen to anime in one of the wildest trajectories a franchise could hope to have. Series creator Bryan Lee O'Malley returned to the series to tell a completely new story for the new take on the comics, and it was all brought to life by the same studio behind shows like Devilman Crybaby, the upcoming Dandadan, and more. 

Science SARU made its own kind of leap as it produced an anime for a Western comic book series with O'Malley and BenDavid Grabinski serving as the writers bringing it all together. It was a collaborative effort in many ways unique to a series like this, and Netflix is giving fans a look at how Scott Pilgrim Takes Off was formed at Science SARU with a special behind-the-scenes video breaking down some of its biggest qualities and much more! Check it out below.
