| Pretty nice, also Garou's theme is awesome |
| just because I’ve gotten weaker, doesn’t mean that you got stronger, does it? |
| I have a question. Can anyone who read the manga tell me when more or less Puri Puri Prisoner is expected to appear in this Season? :) Like in which episode (based on the current pacing compared to manga's chapters). |
| Kinda dissapointed a new studio has taken the charge on this one. I prefered when saitama's head was actually in somewhat decent round shape and not taller.. Somewhat dissapointed in the new season, im not sure why.. Maybe different animations.. Couldnt tell much difference first episode but.. Now im kinda bummed about this new beginning. Had high hopes for it to. |
| Somehow not depressed. |
| RIP, Tank Top crew. I didn't know there were so many of them lmao. It's amazing how this show still manages to be entertaining af even with such average animation. I like it. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| honestly my only issue with this series is that they spend way too much time on side characters.. |
| Everything negative from the last 2 episodes still stands in this ep, exception being tank-top entourage vs Garo fight, which had the better animation till now. Garo vs Golden and Stache was meh... At least Garo design is exactly like in the manga unlike Genos lol As I thought they decided to give Garo blue rays for the hands movement, what stupid decision, especially when we already seen in season 1 that Silverfang doesn't have that when using his martial arts... and in this season to make it worse they will still add to Silverfang hands green rays, I bet. Overall I liked this episode, I couldn't dislike it when the Garo x Saitama 1º meeting was well adapted. |
| Just here for the "bad animation, JC staff is a bad studio." comments. |
 |
| Well that was a fast episode! But I enjoyed it nonetheless. Can't wait to see Saitama in a martial arts tournament. |

| Oh no, looks like that filler arc they warned me about is happening after all. Hopefully it doesn't take too long. The Garou arc has been really good so far. |
| Garou is a badass and a real damn monster. Loved the episode and I still get that epic feeling I had from the fights in season one. I have the show at a 8/10 right now. It probably won't go higher because the animation isn't the same, but cmon it isn't THAT bad. In fact, its pretty good in some spots imo. |
Hey there! If you'd like to talk about anime or anything else feel free to drop a comment on my page or DM me. I'd be glad to have a conversation and make some new friends :) My list: https://myanimelist.net/animelist/Amazinc?status=7&order=4&order2=0 |
| I just finished 3 episodes of Season 2 yesterday. It wasn't that bad. It's still hilarious. I'm watching this anime for the plot and not the animation itself. |
 |
| hehehe love that look from Garou after his chop attack against Cape Baldy did not work. One Chop Man. XD waiting for the next face off of the 2. can't wait for the next episode. |
 |
| guess no golden week holidays for jc staff's animators |
| only OPM can make me fall in love with a villain in a single episode the scene with Garou kissing his fist and then punching that fat dude is even better than in the manga lmao |

AwesomeAlfie27 said: Some people are not informed and they blindly hate on JC Staff AwesomeAlfie27 said: So please, before blindly hating, at least take the time to inform yourselves, and then form your own opinion Wut? The one who should need to be informed is YOU. J.C Staff's production schedule has been sh*t in the past 3 years (Just like Madhouse except even worse), due to the fact they worked on too many shows that they overworked themselves. In fact, J.C Staff's art/animation quality has been bad in past 3 years and I barely seen any shows of them from 2017-2019 have any good quality (Aside of movies and OVAs for obvious reason). This is why some of us hates J.C Staff for handling OPM2 (And other shows), yes the animations in this episode was decent but I still won't give too much hope on this due to the reason I mentioned above. Next time if you wants to calls those "haters" is stupid, please do your research properly so you will know what's people actually hating on the studio. Although it's true that some people refers OPM2 garbage just because of bad animations was quite stupid in some way. |
| For a guy dead set on killing heroes, he sure hasn't been doing a great job considering no one has died. Or maybe I've misunderstood his intentions. I'm slowly starting to like the season! The Saitama and Garou encounter had me cracking up. |
 |
| 3 episodes have passed and JC seemed to somehow keep up the work. But there’s 9 more episodes to go, I’m still quite worried. |
 |

 |
| I'm really enjoying the season so far. <3 |
| Garou surely is getting stronger at every fight. His flowing water style martial arts looks deadly to the heroes. Can't wait for the tournament arc. Bang saying "Onii-chan" is the adorable moment of this episode xD Surprisingly, the fight animation got better this episode. Hope it goes consistent or even better from here on. |
 |
| You know, there probably wouldn't have been a 2nd season at all...if JC hadn't stepped in. At first I thought it was going to be Bones...wow. JC isn't a studio I would normally pick. The show is gritty...but it's flying through events at such a breakneck pace and leaving all build up out of the show. The best thing about the Madhouse edition was everything had build up. Now here we are with flash images of animation and this is the best Japan could do...for one of the most popular manga/anime franchises of the last ten years. Now that I've watched eps 2 and 3, it's obvious that the story is really cool, but strangely the anime is making me want to go to the manga to get the real deal. So many shortcuts in every sequence. I get the point but it's like they're burning through this as an obligation rather than a labor of love, which is how S1 felt. The story is great either way, so I kind of don't care how it's represented...but Japan is weird. This was a HUGE hit in the west. Why didn't S2, which everyone was anticipating, get more credit in the industry? Low DVD/blu sales? WTF Japan? How do you not know quality when you see it? Weird cultural flex. The final choppa' was great but...no build up. They're just going through the motions in this show for some of the most epic events. I need to pick up the manga now past S1 because I need the whole pie. |
| LMFAOOOOOO i did not expect saitama and Garou to meet like that I'm cracking up!!! they did the cliffhanger here perfectly, i really want to see the next episode:D |
   |
| I was surprised with how well Midorikawa, Hikaru voice is for Garou. I always though I wanted Garou to be voiced by someone who plays evil roles more. Anyways, It seems J.C Staff is focusing more on Garou fights than other fights. Still, they are doing good, but only in Garou. Everything else is just okay. Also Tank Top VA is the same as the current Kenshiro (Ken's Rage, Jump Stars), so it really fits when Tank Top reminded me of Kenshiro XD I do love the OST and all. As usual Saitama ended the fight too quickly XD Can't wait for the next one! |

| Fuck me. This episode was incredible. Loved the Garou and Saitama interaction at the end. |
| wait!? is that the chop spoiler that i have been hearing from everyone!? |
 |
| I can't wait to see Garou's reaction next episode~ HYPE HYPE HYPE. |
| After this ep I think the season is back on track, I'm lot less worried now. Also love how much Garou there is, and seemingly in next ep as well :d |
SomaHeir said: I always though I wanted Garou to be voiced by someone who plays evil roles more. I always imagined Garou to be voiced by Okamoto Nobuhiko (Accelerator and Bakugou) every time I reads the manga lol. Although I still don't like the VA choice they went but at least Midorikawa did a good job on Garou and gets his character right (So far). |
| Lmao that ending, saitama's fucking badass lol. |
 |
| I really enjoyed this episode. Animation aside, I think it was funny and the events that transpired were fun to watch. This was the best episode so far. As blatant as the animation style and differences can be I am choosing to ignore it for now and just enjoy it. Dororo and Tate no Yuusha have their ups and downs with animation with the latter being lackluster but I focus on the story and events more. I like seeing Garou get caught off guard at times, he's not an OP villain/monster. Even Golden Ball surprised and grazed him. My favorite parts were towards the end when Genos caught Saitama trying out the wig and Garou sitting on the bench with the kid discussing heroes and monsters. |
| 臭い- |
xZabuzax said: That's how it was in the manga.When Garou attacked Saitama you could see that Garou started sweating backwards, was this an animation error? the sweat is supposed to fall down but in Garou's case it was going up.  |
|
| Onii-chan~ Also Garou you fuck stay away from my man Mumen Rider. He's such an angel he deserves nothing but love and praise!! |
 |
| I do not understand people crying about how the second season is weak or studios. Anyway, this episode was righteous. We saw some fights and a funny ending with Saitama. |
| Wow there was actually a section with really good animation... nice |
| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
| Aw man, this was certainly better than the first two episodes but the action scenes are still terrible. Sure they have nice bits but as a whole they suck. Seriously people will stay shit like "just watch it for the plot, characters and comedy" but this is an anime and most aspects of this one are trash. The sound is so distracting, every sound effect is the same in actions scenes, punches that land sound the same as the walls and ground breaking come on dude. Only enjoyable because the comedy made me laugh a few times This episode made me love OPM again so I'm going to start reading the manga. Literally every episode is going to have multiple action scenes. The plot, characters and comedy all revolve around ACTION and they suck in this one. I would love the shit out of this season if it had better producution. Respect everyone at JC Staff that worked hard to at least make something decent but I'm out. The anime industry needs to evolve Season 3 Bones pls? Skip BNHA for a year no problem |
