| Well the animation in this episode was kinda better, better than the episodes before it. It could still be done better tho. How did Garou's hair become orange lmao |
 |
| Completely butchered fight scenes because of ugly animations, still a pretty good episode though. Would have been in top 10 for sure if it was done by Madhouse. |
| It was an okay episode. You just gotta feel bad for Genos though. He gets these awesome upgrades and still can't take out a villian who was about to faint from exhaustion mere seconds before he showed up. |
Kid_Dynamo said: Well the very concept of Saitama is a parody of the Gary Stu type heroes. lol. Garou more or less is walking the same path Saitama took to gain his power (with a twisted motivation of course) by pushing themselves to the absolute limit and then breaking those limitations. Not really a new concept if you ask me. One of the earliest and most recognizable concept of this was with Dragon Ball with the Saiyan's keep overpowering up each time they come close to dying from battle. Well, that pretty much why I don't go near anything similar to db, I didn't have a feeling, a "condemnation" of meh chara, until he showed up, if he die at the end of this arc or something, then maybe I would stick a little longer, but if you say that he will live, guess that it for me. |
| This was better than expected, still they missed things. Him egging Stinger scene, I guess nobody understood what happened there, leading him to defeat Smile Man. Flow Fist effects are garbage... as I thought they used different colors for different users lol, it's not a super power there shouldn't even be there such effect while fighting. Garou vs Genos was the best adapted part. |
| This was definitely the best episode of the season. A lot of hype moments reminding me what I felt during the first season. It obviously still doesn't compare, but it didn't look bad at all. I'm pretty hype to see Bang beat the shit out of Garou, but at the same time I wouldn't hate it if Saitama shows up and shows Garou just how weak he really is. |
| garou is certainly a great villain and frankly he and the whole show deserved better production still overall this season is not as bad as some people are making it out to be |

| Things are finally improving, too bad it's nearing the end. I hope the final episode is at least on par with this one. |
| Garou is a beast! And wow, Not gonna lie. This season really ended so quickly. Then again, they are already almost caught up with the manga which is already behind the web version. I still hope for season 3 in 2-3 years. Just hope Murata will reach "that" battle with Garou and everyone :) |
| Holy shit this was actually good for once and not a disappointment. Why couldn't it have been like this the entire season? |
 |
| Well I guess we know where the budget for this season went. Good to see it's ending strongly. |
| Slice of Life Anime about the everyday life of a German Philosopher: Nietzschijou. |
| Garo went Super Sayian God! NICE! |
| "The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there." "Ruling over death means ruling over life. Death is the climax of life. To have the best death, you must honor life." |
| Every moment I think of what it would be like with good animation and direction. The pacing is bad going into last episode. They sure stuffed things in randomly. It will end next week and I'll be like, meh. |
| Finally, an episode with good animation. Sadly, it's too late. |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| Oh my, that Garou fight, Garou is such a cray character. |
 |
| Holy crap that was a fun, action packed episode. I was getting confused why the show was trying to portray Garou as a sympathetic character, but all protagonists in life have some shit upbringing you can slightly empathize with. What sucks is one more episode is left?!? I've not done much research on how the production of anime works when it comes to hiring artists, leasing out production companies, etc.. but didn't One Punch Man make dumpster trucks of money in Japan with the success of the first season in 2015 and especially the manga? I would think there would not be issues with production limitations, but it looks like there is. I know anime artists get paid nothing, but isn't the show enough of a success to subside that? I know I am making this sound too easy, so someone more knowledgeable can fill me in on how it works :). |
| *snaps fingers* I got it. Bang's brother is Master Pakku. |
| Sure wish the whole season followed Garou. But nah, we needed that stupid tournament. |
| Definitely, one of the best episodes of the 2nd seasons. They want all out on this one. |
| I really liked the quality of this episode! There were still some kinks but the positives outweighed the negatives a lot more here this time. I more or less felt the same "feels-bad" impact when kid he tried so hard to save ran off terrified from him here compared to the manga but the use of the flashbacks from his childhood, especially the one that played before he fought Bang definitely made me sympathize with him more the second time around. Saitama rescuing Glasses from that robot was epic and this was by far Genos' best-looking fight in the second season. If it maintained this level of quality throughout all 12 episodes rather than have it as a 70(mediocre/bad)/30(actually pretty good) distribution, it would've been scored a lot higher. A lot of the sound effects are still on par with Berserk 2016 too lmao |
 |
| Was really looking forward to Garo getting what he deserves, guess we'll really see him dealt with by Saitama himself.. |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Dude Garou is straight up from JoJo lol asspulls everywhere man. But whatever it's entertaining as hell! |
 |
| Definitely an improvement the last episodes. Fight were good. But damn Garou is such a though guy. He shouldn't even be able to walk. I mean sure these heros were all just A-Class but even then + the fact the he was able to fight Genos. But I guess now is the time where he will go down for sure against Ban. The most interesting part is, what's wrong with his air and his eye? Both got red. I hope he isn't an SS God :D Poor Saitama. Got completely rekt by King. 81 -0 haha. Just one more episode. I guess we won't see the heros vs. the monster association. Maybe in another season if it will happen. |
 |
| Death Gatling had plenty of opportunities to launch a surprise attack, yet he keep give away his himself before attacking. Garou still had a long stair ahead to go. I'd say though, Genos would be so rekted when Garou in his top form. Saitama trying to become the ultimate hero while Garou trying to become the ultimate monster. I can see the battle coming from miles away. |
| He who smiles in a crisis has found someone to blame. |
| The fight was pretty unfair on Garo's part. The fight scenes are really great but I felt it was very unfair on his part but it did proved how strong he actually is. |
Damn Garo got some monster stamina there, fighting those A-class heroes, Genos and Bang while wounded If not for the fact Saitama defeated him twice with just one tap each time, he could have a lose streak of 0 fights since starting the hero hunter thing |
 |
| After watching this episode garou is my second most favorite character after saitama. My thoughts are sama as him why always heroes win? 5 heros ve 1 monster is it really fair. Why not change our prospective a bit that is what garou did he wanted to become a monster because he admired them he wanted to make things fair and square ones for all. My final score for season 2: 8/10. I've enjoyed every second of it. |
| Gohan called Genos lol Garou's sudden hair change though... |
| why the hell did garou turn ginger?! i didn't like this ep either. the animation was better sure, but i feel like they're trying to get me to root for garou and it's... not working. i feel no sympathy for his character lol. why the heck was he obsessed with monsters as a kid it makes no sense to me?? like ofc i'd think a kid who routinely rooted for the villain was psychotic (unless they were doing it as a joke). sooo no i don't feel bad for garou getting "bullied" therefore i don't really want him to win in these fights?? so it's just painful to watch? that's just weak motivation/writing imo... maybe it will become clear in the future also not sure how they're gonna wrap this up... i wonder if opm will get a s3 bc a lot will have to be left unresolved im guessing |
 |
| Genos looks stronger and hasn't been trashed...yet. Is that Saitama-sensei worrying for Genos-kun? Do I detect a bit of anxiety from him with all that flashbacks? Enter Bang and Bomb, do we get a Boom? LOL |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
| ... what ... who thought orange hair and an evil eye would make Garou look cooler? He looks so derpy now... |
| I am not a weeb, I simply enjoy 2D girls |
| Garou is really amazing. He really very strong. And also those heroes also have point. They were treated like nothing compared to S class heroes. I have seen them working more than S class. They better get some credit and appreciation. However Garou had a good point for monsters. But also it is wrong. Garou must be taught why heroes are good. I thought he would understand once the kid leaves him in fear. Good thing Bang came. Garou has no chance agains Genos. Logically he is one of the best heroes. He was looking cool though. Oh I was also wondering what happened to Sonic, haha!! The guy didn't showed up for long time. |
| Lots of action in this episode, those class A heroes really aren't very good teamplayers after all. Genos made a badass appearance and showed what he can do, but now the team "old geezers" takes on Garou. Final episode better has some Saitama action. |
| Yea I figured he was gonna beat the A Class heroes somehow lol. Shame Stinger didn't even get to put up a good fight, thought he'd improve a bit after getting wrecked by the Sea King. I get what these A Class heroes are upset about, even if they aren't S Class they can still be great heroes (like Mumen Rider or Saitama haha), but it was very irresponsible to not bring at least one S class hero with them. The hero hunter is a big threat so it's not the best time to be pissy about the rankings. Good thing the glasses guy called for backup. |
 |
| Garou vs the a class heros and Genos was cool. It's nice to see bang. (were is tatsumaki) |
