Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: where to start reading
Adapts Scott Pilgrim by Bryan Lee O'Malley. Say how far you watched, and pick the book up exactly there.
The 2010 film compresses all six volumes into a single story, covering the whole comic but cutting supporting characters and subplots and simplifying Scott. The final volume was published after filming, so a new ending was shot to match it. Separately, the 2023 Netflix anime Scott Pilgrim Takes Off retells volume one and then diverges into its own story.

The 2010 film compresses all six graphic-novel volumes into one story, so it covers the whole comic but cuts characters and subplots and simplifies Scott himself. A separate 2023 Netflix anime, Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, retells volume one and then diverges into an entirely different story.
