Pig God gone got dirty ;_;
Not going to lie the speed of the anime is making this part of the arc way more enjoyable but it does lack the tiny details.
Also lol that bait and switch of Watchdog Man.
Atomic Samurai got it worst lol

It's nice to see the context behind these monsters having human characteristics.
There were also some monsters in Season 1 such as Crablante that reminded me of this.

Most every monster was a human at one point with some being animals at one time. There are only like a tiny handful of monsters that are just monsters.
Wow. I had no real problem with the animation until now, sure, it wasn't as amazing as season one, but the bar was set so high so I couldn't fault it too much for that. But this episode...the animation (particularly in the Saitama fight) was noticeably awful. If it wasn't One Punch Man I would have stopped watching.
Yea, the anime taking so long to come out is a blessing in disguise.... if the manga wasn't still on this damn arc lmao

The tournament arc ends next episode and I don't see the whole cabin in the woods/elder centipede arc being more than two episodes, really if there isn't any filler or recap episodes this season will end in a weird spot
I don't know how many of you watched Sengoku Basara, but this new season of OPM reminds me of that. Production IG did the first 2 seasons of Basara and I really liked it. When I heard they were doing a third season I was excited. Then I found out it was by a different studio and my hype was completely deflated. The third season turned out to have such horrible animation I couldn't continue watching...
It was nice seeing more Class S Hero action, especially heroes that we've never seen in action before. Suiryu is incredibly powerful too.
I just watched some S1 clips. Man, "look how they massacred my boy" is apt.
The sound design this season is the biggest offender, tho

That little flop of saitama onto the one half of the cracked ring was beautiful. You know, the whole motion bluring thing is something i only register as "hey its that thing people on era dont like" and otherwise i literally don't notice cuz they're quick and unimportant. To my eyes there were some really well animated moments here.
At the pace they're speeding through this season they'll land right where the manga is right now.
Murata didn't finish the arc so far. It's feels close to ending but i don't really see him finish it before the season is over.
So they'll go ahead a few chapters or Murata is hard at work to get this done in time.
A season 3 isn't on the cards realistically. They would either have to wait for Murata to create more chapter (this would take years) or use the original web-manga but without the cool Murata art to butcher.

Atomic Samurai was one of my favorite characters in season 1. I really liked how his fight was animated. This version of him was just sad to see.
Murata is nowhere near finished with the current arc. There is a year or more of material left, probably more.
No anime only ending. It will end after a certain fight and that will be it. The arc just won't be complete at all so depending on what the committees plans are we will get either Season 3 as soon as the arc is finish in the manga or nothing at all.
Wow... that's something.
Is that normal in anime-terms? Just stopping 2/3rds of the way through?
Nowadays it's normal and back then we had way more anime only endings even for manga. Now it's more like that you won't ever see the full story for light novel or manga adaptions on screen, because those mediums are just there to promote the books. :) Just read the manga and listen to the OST.
A most recent example I can think of is Food Wars, which ended in the middle of a tournament, and I don't expect the anime to continue.
My 10 yo niece saw me watching OPM S2 and asked me about Garou. I showed her the scene of him as a kid watching TV and she identified with him.
Should i be worried, ERA?

Nya only when she starts to blur as soon as she moves you should be worried.
Credit where it's due, that episode had me laughing multiple times with the Saitama antics.
Feels weird that Saitama focus is almost like an unexpected treat this season.

So out of the boredom of being bedridden the last few days I decided to finally binge One Punch because I had been meaning to and my fucking god I think this might be the most fun I have had watching an anime since I first started watching My Hero. There was literally not a single episode of the entire series so far where I didn't laugh out loud at least once.
Saitama might be the best comedically written hero I have ever seen lol

as much as i like one punch man, most of the humor is pretty classic in term of a shonen parody imo... i don't say it didn't make me laugh, but i've seen way better in that category
if you want something comical with the same kind of setting, i really recommend you Tentai Senshi Sunred, full on sentai parody mostly based on humor rather than action, it's all on youtube (but i'm sure you can find a better quality one) and it's only 10 minute an episode :
and even then, it's only speaking of super hero parody... there's even more if you expend the genres
The music that played when Haragiri revealed himself to be a monster and threatened Atomic Samurai was really good, but it ended very quickly.
I mean there are a lot of parts in that fight that are supposed to look underwhelming
The original webcomic's art gets really cool around this time. It would have been interesting if the whole anime had been based a bit more off that, like what was done with Mob Psycho 100
I could deal with the fact that the animation was only ok but man some of the art is terrible and the decisions throughout really detrimental to the overall product. Orochi looks like he's made out of chewed bubblegum, the sound effects are not only weirdly muted for a city leveling battle but sometimes there aren't even any for what's corresponding on the screen, the editing almost seems arbitrary with no rhyme or reason and the pacing is crazy. Nothing is given any room to breath and they truncate what were already short scenes in the manga. Might
i just want to go ahead and hard second Tentai Senshi Sunred. the show is wild and a real treat. if anyone is on the fence and not sure, or IS sure about finding something new and easily digestible to watch, give it a go.
No. It's not horrible or anything, but season 1 is in another league. Think of every major fight in season 1, how they're animated and how they're executed. If they were made to season 2 standards, they would be reduced to a handful of still images showing one or two hits and then the aftermath of the "fight." Season 2 is about as low budget as it gets.
S1 is better in just about every relevant aspect, including humor and Saitama screentime.
K thx. Still looking forward to watching it. Sad they couldn't continue keeping the quality they had with season one. Oh well
If it's intentional, then I'll give them props for blurry the line between comedic animation and shoddy animation. Because it's really hard to tell the difference this season.
