Flashy Flash fight was awesome.
Had to slowmo a bit to see their actual fight.
Child Emperor has so many cool gadgets to fight.

The best episode of the season; it wasn't a marvelous episode, but it gave a little taste of the OPM fights.

Finally a decent episode! Flashy Flash vs the two Ninjas was animated well. Let's see how they'll cook next week's episode with the Child Emperor's fight. They've been hyping episode 9.

lolz @ calling me the most toxic here followed by... complaining.

gg

@queefmonster I don't get how so many people can't define the word "toxic". It's not fuckin hard.

If complaints were toxic, then a woman raising complaints about his husband hitting her would be.... toxic???

The real toxicity is from people who can't stand opinions diverging from theirs.

Like you.

Also, I literally said I loved this episode.

Decent, 6-7/10 episode. Not amazing, some problems still definitely there, but a good improvement. Problem is, this is episode 8, more than half the show is already over, even if they amp up to 10/10 somehow, which isn't gonna happen, the best they'll be able to raise the show's score in my book is 6-7/10 given the other half will still remain borderline unwatchable slop the likes of which even the shittiest lowest budget trashsekais rarely see. But given they won't raise it to 10/10 from now on, best case scenario is that this will end with 5/10. Honestly, as i said before, my best cope so far is that they did this intentionally because the season will have such trash pace that it won't even make it to the big fights, and they'll go all out for season 4, but honestly with the trainwreck that was s2 and now 3 i have doubts about that too.

Everybody is so excited that an episode actually had some decent animation that they forgot that most of it was a side character fighting 2 nobodies in a fight with no stakes or consequences.

what. is your reading comprehension truly that terrible where THAT's your take? you think i'm intolerant of others' opinions? hahahahaha.

yeah, that's it. EXACTLY what i said, right? /s

and *whooooooooosh*

yeah, you said you liked it. and then you bitched, anyway. you even put the complaining in bold. lolz.

i mocked the incessant complaining, ratings, and impossible standards. i even gave examples of how anime used to be and how awful recycling was/could be. i couldn't care less if one likes or hates this, i was pointing out the absurdity of incessantly complaining about a show one doesn't like. if one doesn't like it, just don't watch it. instead, apparently, it's watched every week and then complained about, as if that makes even an iota of sense. derp.

Damn, ppl really weren't kidding when they said that this episode was good! 😳 The animation was great, obviously not breathtakingly over the top like for example in MHA's current season, but I doubt we would be complaining this much if the entire season of OPM was animated like in this episode. 👍

Here's hoping the remaining episodes will stay on this level, but I won't get my hopes up just yet 😅

This is the good animation everyone is talking about? A fight made with 3D models being sloppy animated, almost like using AI, and lots of weird ass cuts? (like Flash going for a waterfall and immediately showing us him landings on a solid rock in a completely different place).
Man, this sucks.
Anyways, what also sucks is Child Emperor, I hate this brat he's such an annoying nerd.

Man, can we get some fucking Saitama already? Bro is the protagonist and he has been on screen for less than 5 minutes this season lmao

Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~

@Ego_Altar You're acting as if Saitama fight shave consequences. This is the whole reason why they can't use him because if you insert him into fights there won't be any fights. King is just a gag char. If you want serious fights the side cast is what you should be aiming for. Genos being the exception

Complaining that characters besides the two main chars getting screentime is silly tho.

@queefmonster Again, raising valid negative points is not "bitching". In fact, you're the only one bitching here. Just because you can't accept that other people criticize something you enjoy.

Keep being so toxic. Aside from looking like a clown, you're not acomplishing anything.

@Dante012

that ego.

of course, it's me who's toxic for pointing out the absurdity that these threads are just massive walls of incessant whining (even 8 episodes in) and the season has a rating of 4 with tons of votes - eg, objectively terrible. which puts it in the very abyssal ranks of anime.

meanwhile...

but sure. it's not the above that's toxic... it's me. for no apparent reason, with no rational explanation.

and way to *whoooooooooooosh* a second time bigly while failing at trying to tell me my own point. while missing it, entirely. iq: potato. gg.

eta:

good lord, the first line of your own profile is:

"IF YOU'RE HERE TO INSULT ME, YOU CAN JUST SHUT UP AND FUCK OFF. I can't believe I have to do something like this, but I've NEVER seen a community as toxic as those of MAL. "

...so i guess this nonsense is your MO, and you do this enough to warrant making it the first line of your profile. ooooooooooooof, how badly can you really prove my own point?

because in episode 8 it is better than the previous episode, the action is better than the episode when garou vs orochi. lots of movement not just frames where only the mouth moves and the frames shift accompanied by conversation.

@queefmonster Of course you are toxic. You can't accept people having opinions different than yours. There's nothing more toxic than that.

People are allowed to complain as much as they want.
People are allowed to rate as low as they want.

You want to deny them that right ; while, of course, making sure YOU can "bitch" as much as you want.

It's outrageous what Bandai Namco is doing with One Punch Man. The level of quality that JC Staff studio is delivering is ridiculous, a joke, shameful, lazy. Shinpei Nagai is completely incapable and incompetent of handling this work. One Punch Man deserves treatment on par with Kimetsu no Yaiba, Chainsaw Man, and Sousou no Frieren. Boycott Bandai Namco, zero points. I hope the third season of OPM gets the worst possible rating. I remember the first season: beautiful, well-made, exquisite animation, a pleasure to watch. It's no wonder it became popular. Bandai Namco, learn one thing: you will profit if you invest in quality, not the other way around. The better the quality, the more views and shares. But, with the current situation at JC Staff, you are only attracting hatred and contempt from One Punch Man fans. I repeat: the One Punch Man manga is wonderful, has magnificent art, and deserves treatment to match. In this awful season, everyone is to blame: Bandai Namco, JC Staff, Shinpei Nagai, etc.
