Martin Mystère: a controversial return to 3D
The 2000s were a golden age for anime and Martin Mystery he contributed a lot to this. This young blond man, fascinated by the paranormal, has left his mark on the morning television of many children. Inspired by Italian comics, this cartoon managed to mix mystery, adventure and humor for maximum viewer pleasure.
However, a recent announcement has sparked mixed reactions among fans. In fact, Martin Mystery is about to make its grand return to our screens in 2025. If this news must have made nostalgics happy, the artistic choice of the reboot gives shivers. Indeed, the transition from traditional 2D to 3D has not been unanimous, as these reactions on X demonstrate:
The originality and charm of the old version, influenced by Japanese anime and partly produced in Paris, risk being put to the test with this new version. The three-dimensional design, while modern, was seen by some as a betrayal of the very essence of the series. The choice to entrust the reboot to Powerkids Entertainment, a Singapore companyalso raised doubts about the faithfulness of this new version to the original.
The debate over the transition to 3D is not new in the world of animation. If this technology can give a second wind to certain series, it can also distort the soul of the classics. In case of Martin Mysterythe first images left the fans perplexed. The iconic trio – Martin, Diana and Java – are certainly recognisable, but will the magic still work?
Judge for yourself with this new image:
In the face of these changes, one thing is certain: generations evolve, technologies advance and adaptations sometimes have to take risks to reach new audiences. It remains to be seen whether this 3D Martin Mystère will be as popular as its predecessor. Only time will tell.
