Of all things in this show, that makes the least sense by a country mile. It's awful and just feels so forced and a lame device for comedy. Not impressed at all. Because he's like Kirito. He basically became a "beater" this episode lol. Yeah it was a pretty bad episode. The whole fish thing should have been one episode, instead of dragging it for two episodes and being completely predictable. At this point, the same repeated joke became a bit stale. One of the very few post that makes sense on this page. Everything else, including Veldin's awful post, should be overlooked. |

The whole fish thing should have been one episode, instead of dragging it for two episodes and being completely predictable. At this point, the same repeated joke became a bit stale. Hu... what joke? Saitama one punching the enemy? I guess that stopped being a joke long ago. I love Saitama's one punches cause they are awesome and hype, not to make me laugh =/ |
| Yeah its difficult to understand why Saitama would diss himself like that. Especially after that one ass hole was trying to disparage him earlier it would have been a perfect moment for Saitama to launch a great counter argument and actually explain what happen with the meteor and explain Sea King's regeneration. I guess it wasn't easy to tell for the normal civilian onlookers but we know that the Sea King dude just regenerated after every attack anyone else performed on him except for Saitama. So in reality Saitama should get 100% of the credit b/c of the Sea King's regeneration abilities. Well at least the positive points of the episode included those awesome fight scences with genos . Actually liscenless rider served a huge purpose most likely stalling enough for Saitama to get there , because it was apparent the sea king wasn't going to let those civilians live, still sucks that he's so weak though even though he seems to be such a bro. Saitama gets into B class awesome. Hero Organization has horrible analytical skills giving so much creedence to rumors about Saitama and not actually realizing he's pretty much soloing all the high level threats to the city. |

moodie said: YEEART said: thats very fluid? u call that good?Unfortunately you don't need those effects for good animation. As stated before, it's how fluid it is. This is very fluid. If needed, I can get a much better example to suite your needs. i was hoping u would show me KnK or something lmfao now im convinced u have no idea what good animation is anyways Yes. Way better than the sloppy and choppy exchange of blows between Genos and The Sea King that looks like your typical long running battle shounen.  Admit it, you're not just fabulous enough. |
"Hi!" |
| Mumen Raider is amazing. He's a true hero and also it makes me sad that Saitama has to play the bad guy to make people stop arguing. Loved this ep, best one yet imo. |
| ^^ That's because that just happens to be Shingo Fuji's style. |
| Genos gave me goosebumps. Mumen Rider made me cry. T^T Saitama was epic as usual. And that poopface citizen pissed me off. This episode really convinced me that OPM is the best anime of the season. |

Admit it, you're not just fabulous enough. Okay, I don't know that anime but that scene is amazing indeed. What anime is it? Genos vs Sea King does not pale in comparison to that at all, though |
| Ah, nice episode. The end there makes me want to ship Rider and Saitama, but I'm not supposed to tell people that. |

I've only seen 6 episodes of it, but friends say to expect a lot of ass pulls and convenient moment s etc. Bones original so sasuga. Heard it's mindless fun (which it is) so just turn off your brain I guess. Seems I've proven(?) my point I guess. |
"Hi!" |
| Idk why people complain about Saitama one punching his enemies when the shows name is One Punch Man >.> all the development goes to the other heroes as the anime is definitely starting to branch away from just Saitama and Genos. Anywayz, based Mumen Rider made this episode. Very manly tears were shed, the OST made that scene. |

| Damn. Genos badass as fuck almost beating that guy. But bad guys always have to play dirty and involve innocent people >.> At least Genos was able to save the girl from him although I was wondering why he didn't try to get her and the father out of the way instead of catching the acid with his body. Shouldn't have taken that much longer. (also -> YAY favourite soundtrack playing during their battle :D ) And Saitama sacrificing his "reward" to keep the reputation of the other heroes up was pretty sad, too. He finally had eye witnesses and still nobody believes him because of this one stupid fuck that tries to devalue the other heroes... Also glad to see that Mumen Rider survived all of that. He sure is living on the edge. edit: Just remembered something. One point really pisses me off. That the public doesn't believe and trust Saitama is one thing but the association even has footage of him beating that monster(every fucking frame) and they still doubt him and talk about the rumors as if they might be actually true. |

Smudy said: He did that to make the people give the other heroes credit who fought the Sea King and deliberately took the bad guy role there. Out of all people, you didn't get this one. I'm a bit surprised. That's what happens when you don't really pay the greatest attention. Hindsight tells me it was something I really should have noticed, and it is a lot less annoying to see it like that. Still annoying though, as Saitama definitely deserves some credit for saving the day (and not just for this instance either: how many other times has Saitama saved the world like that?). |
| forgot to mention a random point about the episode, but after genos got hit by sea kings poison , we could very clearly see some muscle and bone underneath all that machinery. It's crazy how much damage he can take without dying haha |
| |
| Is this anime really so good that it can rise to rank 16 on MaL Before the show is even over xD I think it is good and all, But it seems people are over hype-ing it quite alot |

Well reading that I guess I can understand what saitama was trying to do. But I still hate it though, there should have been a way for him to both acknowledge their efforts and also get them to recognize his own. I think he could have said something along the lines of maybe those other heroes didn't beat the sea king but they definitely did their job in not actually allowing him to kill civilians and stall him for quite a long time until Saitama could get there. If anything they were incredibly brave for going up against what was basically insurmountable odds for them. |

stand said: Ein said: yea don't get your hopes up It's also repetitive as fuck but when OPM does the same its criminal and all sorts of butts hurt. Meh I don't understand. 1) it aired 5 years ago 2) it's unknown 3) its like ranked ~7.5 r u sure? I think it probably got called repetitive back then |

stand said: Oh that's right, I forgot that no one likes mecha. Oh right, there's that as well. Mecha was the reason why I out it on hold unfortunately. I found it highly enjoyable at the very least. So fucking fabulous. |

midnightblade said: you do know that he did what he did to convice those people that the other heros are actually usefull..and to stop them from loosing their faith in them..cause saitama is too nice..he didn't want those hero to be treated as a bunch of useless idiots after all the crap they've gone through to save and protect those people..Yeah its difficult to understand why Saitama would diss himself like that.

| I read the manga but the way they directed and presented License-less Rider's speech with all the people cheering him on made me tear up a bit. |

I think the gif speaks for itself there xD Gurren Lagann and Code Geass were the only mechas thas I watched and actually enjoyed, the others were just meh, so my expectations are not that high anyway, cause beating or being on par with those two is really hard for the genre I probably should stop going off topic, sorry xD |
| Damn good episode! Genos fight with the Deep Sea King was pretty crazy even though he got beat, Mumen Rider was damn inspirational trying to fight him and of course common Saitama is a beast with his one punch! These people really are stupid and just piss me off more and more with how they treat Saitama but he really is a good guy taking the hit by saying he just got lucky to take the credit but hey he is still class B now! Hopefully we see more of Mumen Rider because even though he isn't strong he is still a pretty cool guy. I can't wait to see the next episode to see what this catastrophe that fortune teller saw. Here is my full review on the episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_9_ynmvBrg&feature=youtu.be |
| If only OPM had 24 episodes instead of 12 it will ends first with large detachment from FMA. |
| Despite the bad art, the genos and sea king fight was the only good thing in the episode. ETX said: There is no "low budget" epsiode with One Punch Man. The entire adaption has been animated with an AVERAGE ANIME BUDGET. Bullshit. Look at the list of companies in the production list.  The series is clearly being backed up by huge companies. Rekien said: That dont come even close of the quality of the ANIMATION of this fight alone dude.... All thats moving is the girl, there are no walls getting closer to the camera, fire effects, nothing...Better example next time, asshole. Will this do? http://webm.host/ec974/vid.webm |
| Those other heroes put up a good fight to hold up the sea king while Saitama arrived. Also, epic fight by Genos and Licenseless Rider. |
| Well Mumen Rider cool, and Saitama did what he does best. All the "behind the scenes" stuff has zero tension though since Saitama can literally one-shot any doubters. |

If anything they were incredibly brave for going up against what was basically insurmountable odds for them. That argument wouldn't be that strong... what Saitama said was, imo, the safest way to get to the crowd and since, as stated on episode 7, Saitama does not really crave for credit that much, he as a professional hero will for sure have other oportunities if he wants |

If anything they were incredibly brave for going up against what was basically insurmountable odds for them. That's exactly why he put himself down. The whole argument that the NEET asshole was putting forward was that heroes who just put effort into fighting villains are useless. Unless they actually beat the monsters, then they're just wasting their money by paying them to do their heroics. The only way around that was for Saitama to claim that they were the ones who played the biggest part in Sea King's death, otherwise the NEET would have been proven right and all the other heroes would essentially be seen as useless in everyone's eyes, despite their efforts. In his own words 'Anyone can stall for time.' So them being able to hold out doesn't matter. Their job is to defeat evil and if they can't do that, they've failed as heroes, according to him. |

| Madhouse delivers again, almost perfect adaptation. Didn't like the art in the beggining of the Genos x Sea King fight, but the rest was on point. And this thread has so much Salt, from both sides, lol. And wtf is with people taking obvious baits? Z4k said: ETX said: There is no "low budget" epsiode with One Punch Man.

| I really believe that Genos could destroy the Sea King. He was great in the battle and looked different. But I love mumen Rider, he had a beautiful motivation <3 |

| - Saitama punches away even the rain in a gigantic radius - people believe in a random idiot who says that Saitama must be weak, even though they saw everything Flawless logic |

Well that's the point. Saitama should get some credit, but the point was to make sure the people didn't ignore the efforts of the other heroes who risked their lives. Its episodes like these that show that the show is more than just an action parody. Despite some people here that clearly don't see. |

The series is clearly being backed up by huge companies. yeah number of company producing the show doesn't mean they have a huge budget because if they had they will at least fix the shitty Art and Background in the series Also average budget is 200-300K $ Per episode |
Harlequina said: Animation was really weird in some scenes... not good tbh. Still, the first half with Rider was amazing. agreed that part where Genos is rushing towards Deep sea king looks pretty weird. Otherwise great ep. Go Mumen Rider! |
"Fortress Maximus has come himself. Okay! Then I shall get Fortress Maximus to fight me, huh huh huh!" |
Rekien said: Z4k said: Do elaborate how much that "average budget" is. For a late night anime i guess its around 1,7 million USD....For a sunday afternoon anime tough, the average budget should be at least 2,5 million USD maybe. Dont have any date to confirm this, and im probably wrong...thats for an average 13 episode anime tough Yeah but OPM isn't an average 13 episode series since it's getting short OVA/specials in each volume of the BDs iirc and another extra OVA in december. The series is clearly being backed up by big companies. |

No offense, but I think some really get animation. |
| Wow this episode really reminds me of MAL, rather any kind of entertainment really but really just a lot with MAL. Something does legitimately good, like say a anime, then there's always that one guy/group that needs to look down on it and often comparing it to other things saying it's just copying or a bad version of it (in Saitama's case, "stealing" other hero's credit). Oh, that OST during Mumen Rider's speech though, great stuff. |

If it is the former: lel nice info out of your ass/10 |
