Now everyone will open their eyes and see how shallow the story and characters are, that’s not to mention how dragged out and boring it gets later in the manga That doesn't explain why the manga's rating is so high. Thank Murata’s art for that |
| Imo, s2 so far is somewhat worse in comparison, not just the animation, but the general layout, so to speak, including the choreography. But from all the negative complains I'd read before starting this season, I expected much much worse than it actually turned out. |

Compare this to Rage of Bahamut where the animation stayed the same, but the show just completely jumped off a cliff. I still don't understand why the animation isn't as good considering this is a very popular show and did well. They knew there was going to be a season 2 so how did they not get everything right is more concerning to me. what do you mean by "they knew"? you do realize its a different studio right?

Everyone and there mom knew there'd be a second season to one punch man it's one of the most popular anime ever. So I mean "they" as the people involved in creating the first season and involved with the anime in general, should've already been locked in to create the second season after the success of the first season. It's not like it's a new anime where they were taking a chance because it might fail. misinterpreted what you meant but yeah, madhouse should have done season 2, and one punch man came out 2015 they had 4 years to lock it in, instead they wasted their time on quite a lot of nonsense |
| Literally unwatchable. Im surprised it's score is that high. Went from masterpiece to a average skippable show. |
| like it so far.. dont give a f. what ppl saying about animation. We all know the anime community is a bunch of salty kids who are bored if they cant hate on eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeevery little detail. |

Saying that the reason for OPM1's quality was merely "outsourcing" is minimalizing it to a degree where it's becoming inaccurate. The reason for why Season 1 ended up the way it did was through the combined effort of Natsume Shingo, Kubota & the show's producer. Especially the producer & Natsume have a wide net of connections through the history and especially the latter expanded said net with his participation in Space Dandy. So with this array of connections at their disposal and a rather solid schedule they were able to invite all kinds of talent to join in on the production and help out. If I had to describe it, I would rather say it's an industry-wide "All Star" project rather than outsourcing. Oh and before you're told that it's somehow a Bones production in disguise, it's not. That's some misguided belief based on people overblowing the presence of Bones affiliates. Budget has in no way any role in this whatsoever. "They" who provided & earned the money are the committee who consist of a group of companies so them not having the money simply does not happen. Now as to why the sequel went to the new studio and new staff. It's actually rather simple once you think about it. Well first off, it's important to know that studios and individual staff tend to be booked out for years in advance so spontaneous planning such as "Well our show concluded, wanna do a sequel now?" simply does not happen. The key staff not being available played a key role in why things went the way they did. Natsume who is the pillar of the project went off to direct Boogiepop among other guest appearances on OP/ED, Episode directors, storyboards etc. With Natsume gone the source of where all the staff from S1 came from was effectively also gone leaving a rather meager in-house staff lineup at Madhouse who were both booked out and not capable of producing a sequel. The committee wanted to ride on the wave of success the previous project caused and couldn't wait 3-4 years for Natsume to finish his Boogiepop project only to then take another 2-ish years to produce a sequel, that would've just been too long. So since Madhouse was booked out and wouldn't have had the necessary means available anyway, they went looking elsewhere. |
wikika said: deffo better animation than I expected Indeed. I saw mention of the animation being bad on here so I was hestitant to watch. Turns out the animation is actually pretty good. Anyone that is saying the animation is terrible obviously has their head in their ass. Its only terrible compared to Season 1, and lets be real here: Season 1 had way better animation then any anime has a right to be. Even if we loved it for it, there's absolutely no reason to expect another season to come even close to that even if the same studio had and people had done it. Which is probably the reason Madhouse didnt do the Second reason. They knew this. |

Or will it continue to be handled by the S2 team? |

| animation looks the same as previous season but because madhouse didn't do it people are complaining. Pretty sad |

| my opinion is that it's making me sad. it's sad to read the manga and see great jokes, interactions and amazing fights just to realize that probrably none of it it's going to be on the show. my heart really just hurts. i really wanted to see this part done well in animation, to make justice to the manga, but for the looks of it, it's gonna be bad. and it's very revolting tbh. i hope that at least the characters will continue to be well portraited and written, that's literally the only quality left. |

| The first episode had mixed animation, the second episode had terrible animtion besides from one or two shots and the third episode had good enough animation. If every episode is gonna be just as good in the animation departement as episode three then we are set for a great anime. |
| Yeah I was one of the main people on the hate train when that last PA dropped. Althiugh the production quality is lower than season 1 it's still pretty solid and I'm thoroughly enjoying season 2. |
kaneki_spaghetti said: SRti0 said: So what are your opinions on the season so far? It's sh*t, One Punch Man S2 "Anime" seems like to lean more and more to shonen genre (*it's Seinen) bec. of the direction of the character.Looks like J. C staff really like the Fan service than the story. Well I guess I'm still gona read the Manga Shounen and seinen aren't genres. Demographics have nothing to do with plot. |

| It is better than season 1. |
| It's great! I like the story so far and the all the action. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Tbh I think it's fine? I've always kinda seen OPM as just a fun satire of superhero tropes with great action and fun characters, and so far it's been delivering just fine on that note. Not sure why everyone's been complaining about this season so far, but it's just fine for me. |

| I was expecting an major animation downgrade with JC at the helm, so I was prepared for that. I wasn't prepared for everything other aspect of the anime to be downgraded along with it. The art, the editing, the audio work, even the voice acting feels halfassed at best. Major disappointment that's bordering on trash. |

I agree that shounen and seinen aren't genres, but to say they don't have an impact on the plot is false. Contrast something like Berserk - a seinen, with any shounen for example, with a few exceptions like Death Note, shounens writing is meant to be understandable and age appropriate for 10-18 year olds, so the writing is generally simpler and lighter, meanwhile, seinen doesn't have to do that as it's primarily made for an adult audience. What demographic the show wants to appeal to very much affects the writing style. |

| Animation aside, I'm still Enjoying the Show OPMS2 suffers by comparison with S1 where the animators pulled out all the stops and did some genuinely fantastic work with Amazing visuals so yeah, the disappointment with OPMS2 is well deserved & it deserves every bit of criticism. |
 It’s okay to look back at the past, just don’t stare too long |
LeSponge said: Lets be honest, with this BAD RECEPTION of people from one punch man 2, it will be lucky if it will even have a season 3. I mean the disappointment is real, and just take a look at MAL score, reddit anime ranking and the anime trending page, and you will realize that this is not what you have waited for the season 2of said series. *in Reddit upvotes of spring 2019 it sits in top 10 but its number is way far from what the top 3 series * in MAL scoring list it seems that people accept that this is not a good season so scores are getting lower * in anime trending poll, OPM 2 isnt even on top 10.. Thats how bad this series is so if you are expecting a season 3, its either it will NOT GOING TO HAPPEN OR a new studio will pick it up. where do you find the anime trending poll? Just wondering |
