Will MAPPA and BONES animate the third season of One Punch Man?

man if you really this thirsty for being acknowledged as an idiot online I'm not the one hoisting you up

there is no argument you're very obviously schizophrenic and in need of a psych ward

@Leon888 you have an opinion and that's fine, but please don't make the mistake of thinking that everyone needs to have the same opinion.

@CreepHazard I agree with you 95%, MAPPA did a very fine job on the shows it produced, I also enjoyed their vision with AoT and fully enjoyed CSM. The use of CGI is a thing we need to get used to and if done well, it also delivers. Trigger also fully embraces CGI in some of their works and I absolutely love it. Same goes for SHAFT and their Kizumonogatari movies, just wonderful use of CGI. Regarding OPM S2 from JC Staff, I would say they delivered on other points, like Comedy bits and interactions between characters. They couldn't really deliver on the action part and as you said on the composition. So I would gladly see MAPPA doing it for S3.

is this like ironic?

@Rifle But these are not opinions, these are bullshit, if someone tells you that the earth is flat do you justify it by saying he has his opinion?

@Leon888 why you suddenly bring out earth flat theory to this? you can't theoretically prove why those animes are bad, unlike the flat earth theory.

what a joke. please learn about subjective and objective.

they will post when they are closer to the release; idk why people get so impatient over this and start searching for something that isn't there (reliable leaks on opm s3); leaks maybe build hype, but imo would be nicer if everyone just sticked to official sources, just ignore leaks, why is there a need to latch on to every piece of hope when they already know it's confirmed and all they need to do is wait

edit: I'm literally just praying that Mappa WON'T animate opm, I think people don't realize what kind of animation opm needs (not that I am the right person to say which kind does it need), but the shows mappa puts out look only 'corporate nice', not the kind of 'nice with some soul in it', like opm s1 is the best kind of way to go and imo even s2 animation was decent, of course levels below s1, but they understood the style of it which is more raw and a little goofy, just feel like Mappa is not the right studio; personally I think that for example with Chainsaw Man they tried a different thing from the manga and it ended up just good, nothing special, but opm embodies mostly the vibe of the manga of chainsaw man, not the anime, so yeah just feel like mappa would butcher and their style wouldn't fit

MAPPA doing it would most likely end up in it looking like Jigokuraku, utterly pathetic schedule and lack of staff to work on it. Bones doing it would be the best case scenario, JC Staff would be the second best considering the fact that if Shingo Natsume does return to direct to show them the studio name doesn't matter all that much

MAPPA has some shows that differ from their usual style, but I will continue to say that MAPPA does indeed have a style. As for Vinland Saga, I definitely didn't think that season 2 looked indistinguishable from season 1, I noticed a lot of differences. If I had to describe the "MAPPA style" it would be thin yet sharp outlines, giving everything a serious tone, the high usage of shadows on characters, especially the kind that's made with just lines and no coloring, animation is consistent but usually not anything breathtaking except for some scenes in which they focus their effort. This doesn't really apply for shows which they got a huge budget for. Their style as I mentioned earlier, has a corporate kind of feel, regardless the staff that's working on it, I don't know why. Sure, it's less apparent in some anime on which they spend more time and money on. But shows like Re-Main, Yuri on Ice!, Idaten Deities, Terror in Resonance, even Attack on Titan or Chainsaw Man except for some scenes, have the same type of feel when thinking about the art and animation. Feels good but also corporate-like, kind of rigid. Now, the more unique the show, the less you can distinguish these qualities, for example Jujutsu Kaisen or Bucchigiri. In conclusion, I think MAPPA does indeed have a style, it's just not always apparent. You could make a point here that the shows that have the same feel in terms of the art and animation also use the same staff and that's just it, but that's not the case. All those shows don't have the same staff and that makes sense. Yet there's still like a universal feel across them all, like there's no soul to them, like a guideline implemented by someone for the staff to abide by. I don't know, there's just something I can't explain. But I know it's out there, it exists, the "MAPPA style", regardless of the staff.

Now we know it was fake the whole Mappa and bones thing
