It's awesome and fun, the fanboys are annoying tho and over hype it way to much.

It's the type of anime/manga that you don't need to take seriously 'cause if you do you'll just ruin it.

There is one of these threads on literally every anime done by MadHouse.


You do have to admit if madhouse didn't do it, the HYPE wouldn't be as big.

And you do have to admit that it's hyped for a reason. Anything they put their hands on is guaranteed to have beautiful animation and good OST.

You can say the setup is similar to Mahouka, with a more down to earth main character.


I'm sorry but what? There is literally no correlation between the two? I can't see what you are trying to compare here. They are like polar opposites.

CB has generic radio music... and isn't exciting at all. If I want a sci-fi/action series that is more leaning on western standards instead of Japanese ones, I'd watch Stargate or another sci-fi series. CB can't even come close and I really don't see what's so great about it... OPM is by far better.

Lol you can hate it all you want but if your going to argue that Cowboy Bepop is shit your going to lose. My point is its about to overtake an all time classic, this is not disputable, with only 7 episodes aired. What OPM has shown has been good but is nowhere near the entirety of some of the shows its above.

Well it's "over the years accumulated CB fans" on one hand and "source material+redraw readers+anime-onlies of OPM" on the other hand.

I have to admit that a lot of people are actually rating the whole franchise instead of the first 7 anime episodes.

So it really is not a direct comparison between the animes.

Still, if you use the word "over-rated" which in my understanding means "the people who rate it high don't have valid opinions!", then don't expect people to just nod in agreement.



OPM is "over-hyped" though, because we will not see much of the really good stuff until later seasons, but Madhouse doesn't have a good track record when it comes to sequels...

The problem with OPM is that in today's anime ecosystem it really does stand out above the rest and has a lot of that western audience appeal, however if you were to compare it with other classic superhero spoofs like The Tick,Freakazoid!... it doesn't really hold up as much since it still plays out fairly serious and is nowhere near as flamboyant and wacky as those 2.It feels somewhere in between tbh.
I do think this level of hype is doing OPM a disservice and setting up ridiculously high expectations...

No. I wouldn't even be surprised if this was the best anime of the year, because I've been so hyped up for this for so long

Also, it's really not the anime itself is overrated it's the fans that makes it so overrated and it seems kind of ridiculous to criticize it just because it's popular.
It's like with Attack on Titan, I tried the manga, found it ok but the fans made it so overrated it that I ended up hating it

I am really trying to understand how these two are not the same exact thing. How can something by itself be overrated? There's a reason why professional reviewers very rarely call something "overrated" because it's essentially something the creator does not have control over.

Something having more influence than you think it should is easy to nullify - just close your MAL tab along with every other website where people are being too obnoxious about it for your standards.

Also why am I even posting in this thread, I'm part of the problem here

To sum up some of the posts here, very few people in this forum realize that OPM is only secondly a superhero parody, and first of all is a satire of contermporary Japanese working life and business culture?

If you don't like it then don't watch it.. why concern yourself with these numbers and ratings that aren't reflective of your own opinion?

Why do the opinions of other people upset you so much? There's no right or wrong way to view this and many other anime, or any objective means of determining if this show is "worthy" of such a high ranking. It could simply be a case that a lot of other people greatly enjoy something you don't.

Just move on and watch something else. Or continue watching if you like it.

It is probably the most overrated anime I have ever seen. And I have seen some really overrated shows. I mean, it's current rank signifies that it is considered one of the greatest anime of all time, which is a load of bullshit.

It's good though. (And has been even better recently now that a story has begun to form.) It definitely has potential to be great, but I will never see it as a masterpiece.

It always happens with new anime that have a huge following prior to the adaptation or somehow managed to garner a lot of hype. Doesn't say much about whether the community thinks it's greatest thing since slice bread or nah, cause the ratings are bound to go down over time after the season ends.

OT: if it's overrated, then I wouldn't mind more overrated shows like this.

Yes it is actually! It is very overrated, I just watched first 3 episodes and I did not find it somewhat special or even funny. It is just a mediocre anime, if you want to kill like 24 mins of your time Onepunch man is a #mustwatch type of anime. On the other hand if you'd like to really get into the story and like feel the characters and everything, then no.

Rating is based on what every viewers thinks about a certain series. It does not represent a single opinion but everyone's. It's not even related to the series itself. It's just show how the majority feels about it. You know how ratings work right? Overrating ,by the way, happen only when a series with only few viewers got high ratings. In case of One punch man, this series do have a large fanbase in relation to the ratings so, therefore, it's not overrated.

I think what a lot of people who don't like One Punch Man seem to be doing strangely, is that they are looking for deep intricate plotlines, emotional drama, and whatnot. So essentially you are trying to take a joke manga/anime and treat it as a serious drama? If you keep looking for elements that will never be there of course you're going to be dissapointed. It was never the point of OPM to have these elements but you're berating it for it not being something it was never intended to be?

there would probably be a lot less dissapointed people if you just chill out and watch the show for its jokes, action, and art.

Personally I still find interesting stuff like getting introduced to different heroes and villans with unique personalities and designs is always entertaining to me too.

Even all that being said there's still no guarantee that you'll like OPM.. Not everyone hs the same opinions and you could very well hate something 95% of other people love. But even if you do hate the show, that doesn't invalidate the opinions of the people who enjoy it, which means your arguing of overrated is pointless.
