Excellent episode!

Saitama has now found someone who can survive his punch. Despite that, Saitama doesn't look all impressed, with his expression being really funny. XD

Shame that Sonic only got a few seconds of screentime in this episode. Is it me, or does that creepy smile of his reminds anyone else of FNAF's Puppet? O__O

It was good to see the S-class heroes working together to get past their frustrating opponent. Seeing Tatsumaki come along and re-direct all the ship's bullets was really epic.

The final episode could be THE most hyped anime episode of 2015. Let's hope that it can get match most of that insane hype and end on a high. =D

Maybe cause I haven't read the manga is why I'm not so hyped for this. I mean isn't just gonna end in one punch?

I mean if it doesn't and they are just gonna be brawling. Then I can understand the hype. Cause that would be epic.

Have you watched the episode?

Eh episode was pretty underwhelming and I was so hyped to see Boros in action too. Last few minutes were the only parts worth watching.

You're right his design looks really bad compared to that pic.

I kind of expected more from the alien vs S class heroes fight tbh, Tatumaki's scene was also pretty underwhelming compared to the manga IMO

The ending of the episode was awesome though, hype hype hype hype


Really? I thought the Tatsumaki scene was one of the best animated parts in this episode, if anything was underwhelming it would be Melzagard vs 4 S-class heroes fight. The only great animation in that fight was Metal Bat dodging its attacks.

.


It was a nice scene but I guess I did not had completely realistic expectations of it because of the manga

The home video release of everything will probably look better compared to the tv release, especially if Murata himself is doing any re drawing.

Good episode. The fight between the s-class heroes and that alien wasn't that exciting in the manga either, so I wasn't expecting much and in fact I didn't mind it. The filler scenes were also quite decent as they made the threat seem more large scale than how it was depicted in the manga, so that's a plus as well.
Still, including the previous one this is basically 2 episodes of build-up, so it's understandable some may not have enjoyed this much. Considering what comes next, though, 2 episodes of build-up is definitely worth the price...
5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...

This episode confirms that Saitama makes this show. The other heroes are boring and frankly not even that interesting. They exhaust the campy parody lines and I have to heave out dry laughter just to get past their anticlimactic, 0 tension scenes. I'll have to ask Boros where he got that armor so I can seal away my yawns.

In contrast, there is not a single dull moment with Saitama on the scene. I wish I could say Boros surviving the punch was unexpected but the fans just love to scream out spoilers for weeks on end. Regardless, I hope Saitama doesn't have to wake up from this one.

The S-class heroes presented are like yeah we we just smash and hack it to death... I think even Metal Knight and Genos would have been explosives and flame spam...

Wow Boros' design looks so shitty, like some Yu-Gi-Oh! reject. Interesting to see Saitama not one punch him, but this episode barely looked like a joke anymore, but exactly the thing they were joking about.


OPM is not just a pure parody, I don't know how you didn't get a clue wiht the way episode 9 progressed

I did notice it even back then, but hoped OPM wouldn't go that way and become a generic dull fighting show like Bleach and Fairy Tail. As much as I dislike the term, it's becoming "battle shounen" (I know it's seinen)

The first half of the episode was disappointing in terms of animation. There was a lot of reused sequences and still-frames. And the alien vs S-Class heroes fight was really boring. 7/10

The last five minutes were awesome and I'm hyped for the Boros fight, but that's about it. This show really ran its course imo, not really anything interesting or funny left. The only thing it really has going for it is the sick animation.
What Kabaneri Did Wrong:
- Edgelord protagonist

just a quick question to anyone who might read this...
did Saitama punched Lord Boros? and Lord Boros is still alive?
did he really punched him or what happened?

because that defeats the term one punch since Boros seems to be fine after that punch...

please don't spoil me.. I just want to know if Saitama did punch him or he just slapped him or what happened in there?

I swear to god if MadHouse does not make a second season for this epic series, I will lose it.

They showed fubuki in one of the early episodes and that's about it, I really want to see her, I hope there will be a second season so I can finally enjoy watching her.

For me, seeing the S-class heroes fight was the main draw of the episode. We finally get to see what the strongest 'normal' humans are capable of, and they turn out to be pretty freaking awesome. Especially gratifying to see puri puri prisoner bring some pain after his disappointing display against the sea king. And tatsumaki, proving why she's rank 2.

Boros seems interesting as the first person to survive a saitama punch, but we all know how that's going to end so not much hype for him. Would have been alot more entertaining to see him face the S-class before being obliterated by saitama imo.

Fantastic episode. Boros voice sounds pretty cool.
Great to see the other Class S heros take on Melzargard and discover his weak spot.
Tatsumaki was awesome sending those shots back at the ship.
Saitama vs Lord Boro for the final episode. Cannot wait
