Yes, I think it will cover the Lord Boros arc too, since the chapters go by fast.
E.g. the first chapter will be like 2 minutes of animation XD

yeah one punch man chapters have some insanely short chapters with only a small handfull of longer ones, In 1 cour it can probably get to the boros bit without rushing or cutting much

Nevermind that, why would ANYONE want a-1 to animate a good show that isn't a SoL?
But I agree: sunrise is highly likely, but I wouldn't mind Madhouse, MAPPA, BONES or even David Pro with a good budget either.

I didnt notice he said A-1, just look at freaking aldnoah's quality why would you want that transcended on OPM

Also i never thought about it but david pro would be a great fit cause they know how to draw gar as fuck details

Well, fine. A1 has admittedly screwed up frequently. David pro is actually a great idea. Getting jojo level datails would be amazing.

It's less about the details, more about getting the right mix between campiness and serious storytelling that DP nailed pretty well and that OPM should convey as well.

well when im thinking of the studio im thinking who can nail the look of it, staff members are who i think about when it comes to the show's actual execution. I'm not sure who id want for directing this, i would be cool with the 2nd gintama director doing it since he really nails down comedic delivery more so than the 1st one did and does a great job of blending comedy and serious storytelling at the same time. Hes not doing gintama anymore so hes free but i doubt they'd get him

Never really had any specific seiyuu in mind for Saitama but I'm not sure about Tada Banri voicing him. Genos is okay.
And I'm fine with Madhouse.

After being stuck in an abyssmal slump with shitty LN and manga adaptions like NGNL, Mahou Sensou, Mahouka, PornoKano, BTOOOOM and Co, Madhouse slowly returns to form.
Ore Monogatari has all the makings of a typical great madhouse Shoujo/Josei work, Parasyte was an adequate adaption of a manga classic and Onepunch Man is looking good as well so far. Now we just need new Ippo and Chihayafuru seasons and a release of Satoshi Kon's Dream Machine.

Tbh, I was a bit disappointing knowing that Madhouse was the Studio, instead of Sunrise.

Sunrise seems like a better choice.

Welp, might be unlikely, but I hope the anime doesn't flop now..

I just hope the sales won't suffer because of the Madhouse hate in Japan. This needs a sequel since it's likely to be 1-cour only.

Madhouse hate in Japan

I think that's a bit leap of logic.

Just because they don't have great disc sales, doesn't mean Japanese anime fans hate them. It just seems since their financial problems, they aren't as loved as they used to be.

Old Madhouse used to do good.

From what I read, some fans have issues with their adaptations.

Furukawa Makoto. I've always thought highly of him, and now really is his chance to shine even brighter. I wonder how he'll sound when he does a serious Saitama line.

And we have a nice staff here. We need not worry about the anime, as animation.

It's Madhouse + manga so it's bound to be decent and not a mess like something like tokyo ghoul.
