| I ain't pessimistic in general but oh gosh this 3rd season sounds catastrophic already |
| Maaan the director is a pleasant surprise. Made so many peak hentai I loved however I am not sure if his talents fit so much with OPM. We'll see . Also I like the fact that they characters are not so vibrant and bright and they have clean designs but the trailer again lacked movements. We will see. |
| You really have to wonder if they even want this to be successful. This was supposed to be the next big thing, and it could have been, with the right team. This whole situation is just a massive, wasted opportunity. |
 |
| Why are so many people on the internet literally burying season 3? It's one of the most popular action titles right now. |

@RobertBobert https://x.com/ShinNagai_Anime/status/1943614379607618046 this is pretty much why.
The director already discreetly apologized a long time ago. He got forced into taking the fallout.

|

@RobertBobert Well, that is the actual announced directors account so, it isn't really a rumor. I don't want to be rude, but the trailer they just released pretty much told everyone everything they need to know. Every other show for next season at this point pretty much has their big 1-2 minute trailer up and with actual animation, instead they dropped a 15 second trailer with basically no animation outside of lip flaps and even reused scenes from the previous one. Intentional blindness is going to hurt a lot more than tempering your expectations now.
| @niconiconii27 What blindness are you talking about? I don't follow this situation at all. |

@RobertBobert I'm sorry, it must be a tough world for you.
| @niconiconii27 What world? I think you have me confused with someone else. I asked why people were criticizing the season, but I didn't try to defend it. I repeat for the second time, I am not involved in this topic. |
|
| So, it's going to looks as bad as S2 or worse? Shame that something like Mob Psycho got high production value across all seasons but OPM barely got one solid season before it all went into the shitter. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| I looked at OPM and cried |
| They announced this three years back, and it's just so baffling to see after all this time, it looks like something which has all the makings to become a disaster nobody asked for. Not even a proper trailer and this is coming next month smh. |
| Look at this color palette... I feel so bad for people who have any hope on this series. I hate to be that guy but FFS just read the manga. It's a crime the better arc is getting this treatment. |
| Imagine how boring this world would be without Japan - a comment at youtube |
