J.C. Staff? Does that mean Rie Kugimiya is replacing Aoi Yuuki as Tatsumaki?

Anyway, J.C. Staff should do fine if they keep the animation consistent. The only issue is the director...

JC staff are a good studio, actually + they have a similar way of coloring stuff with similar gradients to Madhouse, so it shouldn't look too different unless they do it on purpose. The loss of Shingo Natsume from the project is a huge deal, I doubt season 2 will live up to season 1's unbelievable animation and consistent production values. I'll try to stay optimistic, but the new director seems to be shit.

Unexpected surprise and mixed feelings.
Madhouse is the perfect soulmate to OPM and J.C. Staff handling it now it's just...*sigh*
If MAPPA wasn't too loaded, it would've been better choice imo if Madhouse decided not to go on any further.

I am hesitant to say that an adaption of a sequel season of any show that Madhouse does will be as good as the previous. This was shown to be true for Gunslinger Girl where the quality drop by Artland was obvious. A somewhat (cheating) counterexample to this would be ChaoS;HEAd which saw some nice visual improvement in the backstory episode for ChäoS;Child.

It is not often Madhouse has remakes of their own show, but their "I can do that better" attitude shows their mettle when it comes to remaking shows others have done (*cough* HunterxHunter *cough*). It will be a battle of which superpowered animation studio will come out in first seeing as how each have a repertoire of well- animated shows.

Sometimes you just gotta realize that you can't watch every
anime you want to. The struggle is far too real for that.

I may be thinking too hard about this, but I'm pretty sure that OPM is one of Madhouse's biggest properties. They must of dropped it because they're working on something else. Next year is Hunter x Hunter's 20th anniversary. They did a couple of short run seasons for Hajime no Ippo.

Hunter x Hunter S2 confirmed? Maybe???....

J.C staff is alright to me but nothing too special unlike what Madhouse has under their name imo.
The new director doesn't look too impressive to me, he's responsible for those poor Shippuden movies and that godawful Road to Ninja crap.
Good news is that this frees Madhouse to do other stuff.

Drrr is different in that the studio that adapted the later season was a spinoff studio of the original.

it still wasn't adapted well from the LN source material, though, sadly
even so there's been other instances of second seasons under different studios & staff suffering, shall we say, a grim fate

One Punch Man is simple enough I don't think you need an experienced director. JC Staff has a really great aesthetic to their shows so I expect OPM to look better than the first season. The only thing which may take a noticeable hit is the action scenes. Some people just worship Madhouse too much, they have not done much since OPM back in 2015. JC Staff has done a ton more in that time its probably better they handle it to be perfectly honest.

Madhouse isn't even doing anything right now, I don't see why they backed out after already confirming it, or was Madhouse never actually confirmed for season two?

I like JC Staff, but I was hoping for OPM to stay the same since it was already perfect, but now learning about all of these changes is a bit disappointing. I hope JCStaff can do a good job. They sure have big shoes to fill.

I read this and it took me by surprise. While I don't have any problems with J.C. Staff, OPM is a Madhouse series.

I wonder something else. Does this mean Saitama and Lina Inverse live in the same universe?

Not only did they change the studio but they will change the director as well? wtf man, this is pretty shitty news, goddamn!

Does this mean that the production of season 2 hasn't even started yet? if that's the case then we won't see the season 2 anytime soon, probably around 2019 or some goddamn shit.

Bad.News. I love both studios but JStaff was never the best one for pulling consistent overall and diverse animated scenes, Shokugeki no Souma while well animated isnt exactly a show you watch and praise for its fluid animation, but more for the clever shots in which they jump the quality of animation. I dont believe that will work in an action series like OMP.

Man , I was pretty shocked at the start too but I was reminded that they animated Taboo Tatoo which is fluent,fluid,smooth and has so much sakuga and cool effects and 3d tilts (only for the camera with 2d drawings) and amazing choice of color palatte in that series , I really wish they put as much effort they did in it and it might be even better (in a different way) and more refreshing than season 1

The loss of Shingo Natsume pretty much means season 2 is guaranteed not to have anywhere near the same level of standout animation as season 1, so yeah the change is kinda worrisome.

Also, the sound director worked on Berserk 2016 if I'm not mistaken. W E WLAD

First of all WTF man. OPM was made by many animators across the industry from different studious. and the old staff for opm is also returning with the exception of Sound Director and Director himself. Sound Director is also good but my only concern is the Director.And many people are shiting about the studio change, Madhouse is a big studio but J.C. stuff is also good. J.C. stuff actually produced many good anime like shokugeki no soma,Golden Time,Nodame cantabile etc. So I'm not worried about the studio but I'm worried about that director:/.
