Jeez, many noises supposed to represent hits taken/given were really too closer to rifle shots... I could almost hear a M14 or something from a game I surely have played back there.

Not a bad episode though, fights were ok & Saitama's last arrival made me happy.

Well gotta give credit where it's due, this episode was a serious improvement animation-wise, there are actually multiple cuts that are quite good but since they're so short it's hard to feel them.

I really like the development Suiryu's had, it's simple, but quite satisfying after all the bs he said last episode.

And I can't believe Aoki made a cut on every goddamn episode so far, this man is a machine.

Liked the episode quite a bit! However....no one noticed that when Suiryu was getting beat up they used the M4A4 sounds from CS:GO?


I thought i was the only one who did notice it.

I really enjoyed this episode. Pretty good animation compared to the rest of the season so far, lots of emotion, some good fights. Choze vs Suiryu seems a bit weaker than what I remember, but whatever. Can't wait for next episode.

Everybody who's complaining about lack of Saitama screen time should just drop this series now, because it's not about him anymore.

The sounds in this episode is horrific. Damn. I think I may be done with this anime in terms of commenting on it. Theirs just too much wrong with it in my eyes that I can't even enjoy most of the moments I want to see because its butchered. I don't wanna be that guy so this is me bowing out.

I haven't seen this episode yet, but I really need to ask one question, just from pure curiosity: did Puri Puri Prisoner finally appear in it?


No, not yet.

Same here. Like in the first season Saitama appeared almost every episode, so why is he being ignored in this season? I know they have to build up the plot, but seriously? I just watched that episode waiting for Saitama to appear...


You cannot blame the team making the anime for this one. They are following the story from the manga and not making too many changes. And yes unfortunately






Though you may say they cant deviate from the manga, re-watch season one and tell me if there wasn't any actual development and content. They basically color the manga and put it back with those poor cuts and transitions, as well as the lack of content illustrated. Seriously, no wow factor. I'm not a critic or artist, but I manage somewhat with art myself and I am an anime fan. A QUALITY anime fan. Therefore, when you screw up one of my top animes, then I'm gonna be really pissed and season 2 episode 8 was the worst of them. I have no idea whose FAN-MADE PRODUCT you presented or stole, but I will HATE this studio. SOMEONE else need to create an OVA for season 2. Someone that cares about OPM. Really only gonna watch because it's One Punch Man and aa legacy was born but you guys really took over and stifling it but don't worry. I expected nothing good from that current studio from episode 1. Trust me. By episode 4, I realized clearly that fans' comments were ignored because the crappiness was still present. Season one was good up to episode 4, and then episode 5 took an upward projection to a higher quality in color, vibrancy, drawing, effects and customer loyalty.


No hate, but don't do an anime you can't manage.

The start is maybe not the most impressive ones i have seen ,Problems with animation deformed characters things don't move!! And its have low quality overall!!

Monster swoops down from the heavens to break up this boring slow ass tournament,,, Finally!!

Garou shows up? In a extremely ugly fighting scene!! The animation drops remarkably in the fight between him and the street mutt!!!!,, Its twitching and lagging weird shapes, to bright colour's,, It is a freak of nature!!

I kind of liked the monster turning and the violent fight with the rebellious heroes who refusing to cave in!! But well to little,the rest was just grinding!!!

And why the dramatic moment? I mean it was very fucking funny and i laugh at you for your silliness!!! But don't take yourself serious!!,,, No i'm not impressed!! You should have played your strong card my waifu Tatsumaki,,,,Anime you are a idiot!! And for that you had 3/10 !!! Now have you have 2/10 Your are a joke!! Better yourself to next week!!!

Ahh. Why couldnt you appear sooner Saitama, I actually feel sorry for suiryuu, hopefully he bounces back from that... and grows back his teeth. How could they damage such a beautiful character. At least he'll come away from this knowing the worth of heroes.

Let's just skip the talk about "visual aspect" of the ep. it's a waste of time, and just focus on the best part, suiryu get his ass whoop hard, Oh YEAH, clearly best thing in this episode.
Now all that remaining is to see how garou ass is geting whoop hard too 😈

Didn't like this episode that much. Maybe it's because this is a parody genre, I really don't like it when it tries to add dramatic scenes.

Saitama is the only reason I watch OPM. So, I don't care much about this anime when he is off screen.

The cool thing about season 1 was how they handled/subverted typical shonen tropes; 'the hero MC arriving at the last second to save the day' just 'cause -is cliched trash.
Season 2's feel is completely off, rather than being a weird/awkward/bored guy trying to be a hero; Saitama often just comes off as a guy doing a (call back) gag routine.

Character development for Suiryu was one of the few things I looked forward to, but damn, they really pushed him far till he had to scream for help. Hopefully, he will appreciate heroes a bit more now.

Good episode imo.


Yeah i like Suiryu too but i'm scared they've beaten him so hard he doesn't want to fight anymore! I was suffering with him. I hope Saitama doesn't finish Bakuzan with one punch and make him suffer but i don't have high hopes about that :)

I do not know why many people get upset because Saitama barely has time on screen. If he were present all the time I would have finished this arc in a few seconds so I do not understand why they have tried to take this arc so seriously, this episode was so dramatic and I do not know why it ends with a cliffhanger when you know that the next episode will beat that monster with a one punch The whole monster invasion arc is only a conflict if Saitama isn't available to destroy everything, and the only way to physically prevent him from joining in was to distract him.

I just love it when tough characters crumble in this show and Bald cape has to save them at the end. Suiryu got what he deserved with his cocky ass, I was smiling the whole time when his ass was handed to him.

can't wait for next week even if this is a shitty production.

Kept expecting to see Saitama show up at multiple points in the episode but damn, they really had push Suiryu so far until he eventually showed up.

Fight sequences were pretty decent, though I wish we had seen Saitama beat the shit out of that monster before the episode ended, he's gonna kill it in one hit anyway right? XD

Hopefully Suiryu has some new found respect for heroes now.

It's been a long time since I thoroughly enjoyed a fresh OPM episode, they actually put out a good chunk of meaningful content this week. However, the fight animation is still sad. Too many cutaways to the after effects or flailing put on loops but eh, I should probably give up on the incredible caliber that is season 1.

I can still enjoy OPM2 for what it is, but the grand spectacle that OPM1 was is now just a fond memory.

I really started getting that feeling during episode 5. Sure, season 1 had 3 2-3 episode arcs, but they almost always felt like there were things happening within each episode as to not make things feel dragged out. This feels more dragged-out than Fairy Tail’s 2-3 cour arcs cuz until episode 7, it felt like nothing was ever progressing or mattering, just cutting between a million things going at a snail’s pace (while somehow going as fast as possible cuz apparently the arc in the manga was even more bloated and god awful). Then episode 7 has so many things come to a conclusion one after another and just skipping entire events, giving me whiplash. This is the first episode in a while to not feel so dragged-out but this arc is just such a bloated chore. Worst part is they’re not even done wrapping up everything from this arc, and there’s only 4 episodes to go.

But what a brutal episode! I was shocked by the heartbreaking scenes. It was a complete massacre!
Actually, I felt sad for Suiryu and the other fighters. Although in the previous episodes Suiryu behaved like a complete cretin and mocked the heroes, hearing their screams of agony and despair caused me great sadness. What I admire about Suiryu is that despite the terrible situation he was in, he remained firm and did not become a monster.
Suiryu's seiyuu took his job very seriously. He did it with so much feeling and dedication that it was like feeling the agony of Suiryu in his own flesh. I think it's one of the best voice interpretations I've seen in an anime.
I am glad that in the end Suiryu has understood the great importance that heroes have in the Society.

When Saitama arrived at the scene, it was undoubtedly epic. What seriousness! OMG That monster is already dead xD.

In the following episode: The beating of Garou. Whatchdog Man is going to give him hard. I still do not understand how that hairy thing is so strong 😅.

So damn true man..... I get the rant about the animation and fight scenes but now I just feel that people are making this a punching bag for everything. Ranting about minor sound, special effects and a lack of Saitama.
Just a few episodes ago, people were ranting about how fast the anime was going without giving time to details but now suddenly its so slow?! Really? Well, they f'ed up the pacing but this episode was much better.

I liked how Suriyu got his ass beat, was a powerful scene showing us the importance of heros after so many characters (including suriyu himself) shit-talked about them. Next epissode will be hype, I just hope they don't ruin it.

I'm sorry but your rant has absolutely nothing to do with my post. I don't understand why you quoted me instead of someone else who was referring to the topic of adaption quality.

For the record, yes I agree that JC studio has not delivered work in the same quality as Madhouse. I hope they're not involved in a 3rd season.

The fight between Suiryu vs the monsters lacked "oomph", you can feel the emotion in the manga but here? nah, this was crap in comparison with the lazy shitty directing and the goddamned blurry shaky camera is still present like always and when I see people defending mediocre crap like these then I cringe.
