One punch man season 2 vs Attack on titan season 3 part 2 - Which will be the best spring anime?

HaarWyvern said:
None of them. Why there is only two choices ?

-Rogue said:

There ain't much nominees for best/most popular this season with an exception of Bungou stray dogs III and Fruits basket so as of now the battle is strongest between AOT 3 and OPM for the crown.

Wut ?
Kono oto Tomare is a better manga (by far) than OPM, 7 Seeds too. There are a really average staff on those animes bu I can't say now if the adaptation will be trash or not.
Carol and Tuesday director is Shin'ichiro Watanabe (Cowboy Bebop/Samurai Champloo) and Sarazanmai's one is Ikuhara (Utena/Mawaru). So they could be AOTS too.
There is Diamond no Ace and Mix for sports animes.
I can't understand how you can say that SnK/OPM are the only better anime here.
Most popular probably, but that's all.
And I don't they that as an annoying guy, I'm really disappointed. ^^

I am not a fan of both of the series so I get where you are coming from but it's going to be hard for any anime to compete with the popularity of major cash cows. It's quite a major asset for them.
While it will be really interesting to see an underrated anime to emerge as the best but they'll have to face unfair rating drops by haters like Kaguya sama or SAO.

Sometimes it's just takes time.
I remember in fall when first season of 3-Gatsu was airing. I knew the manga before so I tell to my friend it will be AOTS but anybody look the anime at that time.
It wasn't in top 20 anime of winter 2016 (by popularity) and now it's top 5 and probably 3 in one year. And now the second season is over 9/10 !

And for me it's the same here, it's not because OPM S2 will be most popular right now that he is the AOTY and none of the others animes will became an unavoidable. ^^

Really? Attack on Titan has lost me as a watcher. That shit has become so stupid and dull, that I can't bear to watch further than the first season. I was hyped for the first season when it aired, because I was stupid and new to anime myself and thought this was the best, so I binged it and then I wanted to know more and looked into the wiki. And that was the point that I couldn't bear watching it anymore. Llike it became standard japanese fantasy, mystery, god worship nonsense, which is not my cup of tea. And the fact that they had to split this season in two, just shows that the show has become an unintelligent cashcow, ripe for the last milking.
And this is just not the case for OP Man in my eyes, because it never really focused on becoming the best. The manga may have had it's hype and anticipation for an anime adaptation, but they still had the better characters (mostly Saitama) which felt unique. And the comedic undertone is something that you can't quite compare Attack on Titan with. So, my best anime could be OP Man 2, but I would have to wait until the season is over to make my judgement. Before would be utter nonsense, given what happened to Darling in The Franchise...

lol you compare the best quality AOT with OPM season 2, which looks worse than rubbish shit, I think you should say that to yourself, wait 4 years for OPM season 2 with the number of episodes 12, it's funny that it even looks like disgusting shit, we just look at when airs later, I want to see your stupid reaction

FMmatron said:
How about some other anime ?

thepath said:


I don't think there is any anime that can compete with these two unless if you want to count JoJo which started in earlier seasons and still continuing

thiago52192 said:
Yeah, it's kind of obvious which one will be. If this arc from Shingeki is really what people are talking about, even OPM made by Madhouse wouldn't be better

keragamming said:
I wonder what would be the reaction if opm season 2 actually turns out good? I'm not even a fan of opm, but because everyone is shitting on it, I would love for it to prove them wrong.

Eh,. S3 Part 2 will just backstory reveals, and buildup to a single battle (which is fun, I'll admit), then more backstory reveals. Not much happens.

Whereas OPM S2 will have a terrorist running around, a kidnapping, a full on world war start, and even more.

But yes, for most people (no, don't mean you), animation is all that matters, so AOT will automatically be better.

DonTrumpolino said:


Well, first of all. AOT is not the best quality. It's more like a 4K edition of crap, which means shiny and flashy, but in the end just a high standard. Just as My Hero Academia and all the other overhyped shows. Then there is the probably the issue that your are pretty biased to the public opinoin on OPM at the moment, to which I can only say: Think for yourself sometimes, kid! I even enjoy shows that look crap, because they have something in their narrative or characters that are interesting. And the latter AOT is just not able to convince me. Because they are trying to make the characters stand out, but they fail from the teeth clenching, speed lines soaked, at their foes screaming from a mile away industry standards.
And I'm also pretty sure you are confusing "quality" with "personal preference" again, because I doubt that you would be able to see qualities without someone telling you what to think. The meaning of qulaity changes over time, even in 4 years, but for beginners it's easier to see when you watch an anime from the 80's or 90's, which kind of sounds like what Mothers Basement was saying, because Pokemon and Dragonball weren't the highest quality for their time, but that's not what they are about...

LOL said all of that in your animated garbage level, OPM, CGI, which is bad and sad at GENOS KUN is just a small example of 1 episode that is visible, while the rest of episodes 2 to 12 will contaminate the OPM with your ass and put it in a trash filled with disgusting dirt

keragamming said:

Its the opposite actually, plenty of action at the start then after that we get answers/back story for the last 3 or so episode.

I'm a fan of OPM, but I dont like to watch an anime with a shitty animation. So I think AOT will be the best of spring anime.

Singanoble2 said:
lol it looks like comparing cheese with rotten tomatoes, OPM season 2 is just horrible rubbish, you better not watch the program AOT will be the best

Easy with the spoilers there might, you have to keep in mind not everyone read the manga.

Not sure why you are saying it is a single battle, as if it is a small fight. Its basically a war between titan shifters and Eren and company and then the basement reveal, you know the one that everyone has been looking forward to since the first season.

You may not have liked what happen in this arc, but to others especially for anime only they are going to finally get the answers they have been waiting for since 2013 and if the animation is done right the fights will be amazing.

A lot of people like opm for its sakuga and if j.c staff doesn't deliver on that it is not going to do well.

Ironically the arc in the 2nd season is better than the first season because it actually has a story compare to season 1, so I'm looking forward to how it is done.

Sorry about that, fixed the spoilers.

I think we're just debating the difference between fight (just violence), battle (many combatants of comparable strength fighting for long duration), and war (not sure exactly how to define it, but personally I wouldn't call even D-Day a war, part of one, yes, but not on its own).

Yes, many anime only's have been waiting for answers, and yeah, Wit will probably deliver on the animation. While we can argue all day about OPM Season 1 vs AOT, OPM Season 2 will never compare. And if many OPM fans drop Season 2 because there isn't enough sakuga? That's quite a sad state of things, goes to show little they actually care about the series (though not sure AOT S2 would have done much better with average quality animation).

Yes, regardless of what anyone says about Season 1' comedy, Season 2 is where the actual story begins. And to think not even the manga has covered the best parts of the original webcomic yet. But yes, Season 2 is make or break for the OPM anime. We'll have to see how it turns out.
