I had no idea these existed for months after I had watched the first season, I think I found some out of context clips on youtube and wondered what they were from. These are surprisingly good, and actually offer quite a bit in terms of world building and character development for some of the hero cast beyond Saitama and Genos. I'd say they're a must watch for fans of the show and do a lot to enhance the experience.

You won't get a lot of big set pieces or huge choreographed fight scenes here, but that's not to say there's zero action. For what there is ...

English version:
The special episodes are nothing too elaborate, they are short, funny, lighthearted and a little bit of drama, showing stories that happened between episodes of the first season. Stories too short (or perhaps insignificant) to include. The truth is that this kind of special is made for fans who want a little more of their favorite anime until another season comes out.
I particularly loved all the episodes, mainly because they were all focused on my favorite characters, from fang to fubuki (who didn't even have screen time in season one), so if you're a big fan of humor and like to know the smallest ...

Mixed Feelings
The specials aren't very significant, really.

Of course, it's just some OVAs so big important, detailed stories shouldn't be expcted in the first place, and the plots really are just some simple, silly stuff.

The comedy is good, after all it IS One Punch Man, but nothing hilarious like in the anime itself.

The show doesn't really treat any situation as serious or important since it's just some short comedies, so the characters don't really feel off since they're rarely put in a situation with any real stakes and even when they are, everything is presented comedically.


Overall; It's a nice watch if you wanna kill some time ...
