Honestly not the worst show I have seen. I mainly had 0 hope for the animation to begin with and the story is still the same so its fine.

Yeah, everyone complained about animation so bad that I thought its going to be like Hetalia Axis power where ppl drawn almost as chibis, no background, faces crooked like in Dororo last episodes etc but it was quite decent. Of course quality is not that good like before but it wasnt a trainwreck, i have seen worse.
Also ppl u are spoiled...

For me the 1st season was enough, no need to develop how OP is Saitama, the plot lost me after that, it's okay but easily skippable.
Even without the rushed animation and butchered material OP is meh at best.

very meh season, was hoping its all just exaggerations but i do get it. even half turning off my brain doesnt really work as it was pretty boring most of the time, not much fun to distract us from nitpicking what went wrong. wonder what path cour 2 will take
what really pissed me off was orochi. i was hoping for a fun finale like in s1, even if they had to deviate a bit from the manga, if animated well i guess more people wouldve been more forgiving
anime/manga version of steam would be awesome - https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1625396

I was mostly disappointed as I barely get any Saitama action and jokes in each of the episodes, then I see the score lower than 5★, so it wasn't just a ME THING, the production actually got a problem... it felt incomplete as we didn't get the
in this season...

But yeah, the animation was amazing in its own way, even if some parts of the battle scenes per hero (like Zombieman) was skipped altogether —in the end—making a full episode, or even half of an episode for a single hero fighting someone or something was rather boring, even then—skipping action altogether was what bothered me the most.

Overall, Saitama barely getting any screentime sucks.

It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

We can all agree that the animation was terrible, but what I don't understand are the manga readers who hyped this arc up and said it was the best.

I didn't find the monsters, the plot, the heroes or the fights particularly interesting.

@HEBl That's because the anime made it way shittier than it should be, and the animation isn't the only problem here, it's everything. Animation aside, which is garbage 90% of the time, the direction and storyboard were fucking garbage too.

Finally our one punch mc is in action on the last episode. Real mc vs the monster boss and Saitama easily killed it.... That's mean the alien boss is stronger since Saitama punch that alien more than once I think if I'm not mistaken.

Tatsumaki is far stronger too than that gyoro gyoro. And King easily kill that monster with just a glare and a fear heartbeat. Ahahaha.

That dark s class body builder fight is lame. Doesn't show how he fight, so does the pig god... All he do is only eat... Can't believe he doesn't care to eat a monster....

Well... One punch man have a great story... Just the animation are not so good... Hope the 2nd part got some improvement.

(Saitama vs Orochi) that fight was so bad. What a terrible season, oh my goood. Sooo much talking, oh my god. Just a complete snooze fest. The crappy, garbage like just lack of animation doesn't help that either. This series is so goddamn awful. Not looking forward to the next season at all.

The ending fight wasn't that great. Maybe he should have fought for more time like in season 1 how he fought Boros.
@iamnameers Yeah, I think there was supposed to be an above ground earthquake scene like in the retconned chapter that this fight is based off of if I recall correctly, but they didn't even show any of that.

No need to explain why am I giving this writing You just have to Understand how bad An anime Can be without animation the definition of an animate is animation But when you give us something that you call anime and the manga that's supposed to have only pictures have more animation than the actual anime That's just depressing And sad From a studio that's supposed to have an actual animator I'm just disappointed

Very bad animation sequences. When they were present. As mostly it was just still images with neon backlights. Horrendous animation. They really did the manga dirty this season, and worst part is, they aren't done burying this fascinating story yet.

I dread the thought of what J.C. Staff are going to do with the second part.

Saitama moment truly is a Saitama moment.

Overall, this part season covered the weakest part of MA arc, and the animation of this season is just painful to watch but a bit bearable because of a few decent episodes. S2 has more animation which is just bogus.

Story wise 6/10 and animation is 4/10 so overall, 5/10 for the first part of S3 which cement itself as average for MAL standards but for me it's just boring.

At least I'm glad to see King again.
08:15 ah so this is the stupid scene XD, protecting nothing and on top of that she's still censored SMH.
Honestly I wish Tatsumaki had fought Geryuganshoop, because then we would have kind of been able to compare who's stronger. Because I feel like lowkey gyoro gyoro is weaker than Geryunganshoop and Orochi is weaker than Boros.
Which I mean that would make sense because they were conquerors of like a whole universe, while these guys are Strong Earth Monsters. At the very least I think Boros could take more damage. Geryunganshoop vs Gyoro Gyoro seems like it'd be interesting though.
That said Gyoro Gyoro is clearly gonna have a phase 2, which Geryunganshoop doesn't have.
So I mostly mean the "current" Gyoro Gyoro who seems more like a puppet not whatever phase comes after this.

what's wrong with saitama va? he's terrible! he sounds like he has no material and he's outside of the stuido.

the plot was nice, we see more of s class and explore garo's psyche.

i hope the staff has recovered, too many vicious fans out there.
