What is Happening to One Punch Man?
One Punch Man Season 2 is right around the corner, and it’s looking… kinda terrible? What the heck happened in the last three years to make the Hero for a Hobby fall so far from grace?

I honestly thought I was the only one
March 29, 2019 @ 11:38 pm
Guys it is just a trailer that means nothing
March 29, 2019 @ 11:38 pm
Lets all complain about a TRAILER. It’s okay ill see you all there for season 2 premiere of OPM 😛
March 29, 2019 @ 11:38 pm
sometimes the theme, story and or characters can make a show a hit, no matter what the staff do to the pictures, pretty or not. Old pokemon may look kinda meh, but it still hit the big time, that Usually only truly beautiful shows can pull off.
March 29, 2019 @ 11:38 pm
Hey dude cool video length
March 29, 2019 @ 11:40 pm
We need to do a kickstarter…and have the right man make the second season again…..Fuck this dude..
March 29, 2019 @ 11:41 pm
So basically, the casuals ruined it, again.
… I… I don’t want to dissuade new people from watching, nor say that inky a specific group has the right to do so, but you know… It’s kinda depressing that quality is downgraded at the expense of those that care because some people don’t give that much of a shit as long as they get.. Something related to the name, I guess, even if the quality is completely dropped to do so.
March 29, 2019 @ 11:42 pm
2 months ago when I learned that they changed Studios my reaction was literally "NO!… no…*silence *"
I didn’t even care what studio was going to take in, I just knew doing a miracle twice was imposible.
But, on the bright side… Nothing happens this season. No really important fights nor anything really really cool. Season 3 is were the story is at.
March 29, 2019 @ 11:43 pm
Did you actually compered Dragon Ball, Pokemon and all other animes with long term episode series to 12 episode anime with low budget AND done by a studio that makes love animes instead of action?
March 29, 2019 @ 11:45 pm
Everyone should just give it a chance before we start judging it, it’s like people want it to fail!? It may look like something to worry about but damn try to be positive people!
March 29, 2019 @ 11:45 pm
Everyone watch OPM mostly for the animation , it’s not a surprise the enormous disappointment of the people that overrated the series to the heaven.
March 29, 2019 @ 11:48 pm
I’m not fanboy opm, but i think the best
all animation put in to opm series , look eps 1 saitama dream battle and other eps looks like the animation for the end of series , usually the best animation in the series put the best animation in the middle of series or nearly the end of series.
But i’m very happy season 2 coming out, maybe is the first series anime from madhouse take over to other studio.
March 29, 2019 @ 11:49 pm
And he makes the video 13:37.
March 29, 2019 @ 11:49 pm
Well it goes by the story of manga now
March 29, 2019 @ 11:53 pm
I only hope it’s not another Berserk
March 29, 2019 @ 11:54 pm
ive read the manga and its still beautiful awesome the story for season 2
its not like HUNTERXHUNTER it got boring
its not like Bleach went dead
or ONEPIECE slow boring story
you can stay watch BS boruto anime
ONE PUNCH MAN IS STILL GOING TO BE THE BEST DUDE YOU RELAX
i only watch SHIELD HERO the new cool anime and yes ONE PUNCH MAN season2 i will watch it same as GAME OF THRONES! check it on manga
do not base your LOW IQ anticipation because of SPOILER VIDEO WTFCK
March 29, 2019 @ 11:54 pm
ima watch it and like it . The strangest thing id say about opm is the direction the manga is going compared to the og stuff that was floating around the net years ago.
March 29, 2019 @ 11:55 pm
I still dislike A-1 Pictures for ruining Ace Attorney both seasons and gave mediocre anime cutscenes in Spirit of Justice compared to Bones’s work in Dual Destinies and Level 3’s work on the Prof. Layton crossover. A-1 Pictures also keep cheapening out on animation (especially CG crowds) and sort of ruin tension with the direction in lighting which ends up spoiling certain plot elements/characters’ motives. They keep having pacing issues even on 24+ episodes.
Sometimes I thought I escaped it when it’s CloverWorks but nope it’s another branch of A-1 Pictures. The only times I’m okay with A-1 were the sob-fest Anohana and the other sob-fest Your Lie in April but all the other stuff I saw when it coincidentally has A-1 involved, I was disappointed and then I learned later A-1 was involved. Studio Trigger made great stuff so I watched Darling in the Franxx. After I finished it, I was disappointed. And you know what, A-1 Pictures was involved. A-1 Pictures also produced the anime that most people considered trash, Eromanga Sensei and good thing I didn’t watch it. I don’t know if all of this is a coincidence but A-1 Pictures never stopped pissing me off. I didn’t watch Space Brothers so I’m not counting that series.
Long story short, this studio consistently pissed me off. If you like the works of A-1 Pictures, then good for you. I just can’t bring myself to not blame that studio even though I know the anime relies on the directors and production staff.

"the cover of this book looks awful….thus the book is bound to be awful…."
March 29, 2019 @ 11:58 pm
MadHouse come back butt who cares about the art but add the art shadows and pressiiate what they did for you i waited a year to find season2 so just chill madhouse will be back in season3 ok. I need to see one punch man season2. Ok. Ok
March 29, 2019 @ 11:59 pm
That trailer felt super weird. Like it was made in two parts and then glued together. The first 30 seconds aren’t perfect but they’r no horrible either: Genos and Fubuki talk about Saitama and his strenght, Saitama doesn’t give two shits about the giant bird monster, meanwhile the music keeps building up. If it wasn’t for the excessive black screen (and the random siren tower at 0:20) it would be a good start. After those 30 seconds everything crumbles.
For 30 whole seconds the trailer builds up to the iconic "ONE PUUUUUUUUUNCH" and instead of delivering the line we are greeted by silence and a black screen. In that instant I knew that the trailer would be awful. Messing up such a simple thing can only mean that the remaining part is even worse.
March 29, 2019 @ 11:59 pm
" Dont do that "
If harrassing a shitty bussiness man that is most likely a shark and ruined a lot of lives helps get better anime i’ll do it anyday .
March 30, 2019 @ 12:01 am
Honestly the manga by murata is so well drawn and the action is so punch you in the gut impactful that its basically like a stop motion anime sometimes anyway. One punch man season one was lightning in a bottle capturing the manga so well what with all the animators pitching in, and unfortunately that doesnt seem to be the case this time. Ah well, hopefully the story is delivered well and we still get at least SOME good animation sequences
March 30, 2019 @ 12:01 am
Rofl stop bitching…. Be glad we even get another season…. So many anime’s that are great never ever get a good second season. So shut the fk up and just watch the show, its all about the story art is just an extra.
March 30, 2019 @ 12:03 am
I hope mob psycho never gets this treatment
March 30, 2019 @ 12:04 am
I hope they’ll set up mad house for season 3 if they finish their current show during season 2.
March 30, 2019 @ 12:05 am
Man, the first sentence of the video sure was a PUNch.
Hilarious, I know.
March 30, 2019 @ 12:06 am
I don’t like how people change say the season is going to be bad over a trailer animes are like movies all because the trailer doesn’t look good doesn’t mean the show or movie is going to be bad complain about the trash show in hole, not on a trailer that is a minute or 2 or less and saying it’s going to be bad when you didn’t see anything yet. Just complain about when the season is over and you watch all of it not on a trailer
March 30, 2019 @ 12:06 am
If we insult them a lot maybe they will animate it better (?)
March 30, 2019 @ 12:12 am
i mean i dont like the style but ill still watch it
March 30, 2019 @ 12:13 am
These are not fans, REAL fans will wait and see if the actual show will live up to what the first season did, and not bitch about the visuals…..which aren’t even bad. Seriously, they just don’t look the same. And because its not the same, this deserves hate, yeah, these are not real fans.
March 30, 2019 @ 12:13 am
Its animated, I recognize all the characters, the story will be solid, and have no idea about the voice acting. It will be fine for me. Its not like season one didn’t have literal still shots that were panned around on in many episodes. As long as the story is OK I can forgive less than perfect animation.
March 30, 2019 @ 12:15 am
animators were such fans of the comic that they volunteered to engineer the fight scenes and drawings in season one. I’m guessing they actually asked for money, as they should, and the studio refused for season two, hence the inferior product.
March 30, 2019 @ 12:17 am
……it’s a damn trailer….holy shit guys let’s relax and actually wait to watch before we throw these half as a opinions around.
March 30, 2019 @ 12:18 am
I was never really into animation (when I watch anime, I usually read manga)
so I dont really dive into production and that jazz. THis opened my eyes a little,
though I would still like to see OPM and who knows, maybe we get the season3 right after?
I know its stupid but we can still hope, right?
March 30, 2019 @ 12:19 am
Idk abt animators but my fave script writer is dai satô and I wish he would come back ???
March 30, 2019 @ 12:21 am
Yes. It will be animated just like Naruto…that piece of crap.
March 30, 2019 @ 12:22 am
i was about to type:
i dont get what youre on about
then i saw the first seasons trailer:
holy jesus i agree
March 30, 2019 @ 12:23 am
Whoever screws this up needs 1 Serious Punch.
March 30, 2019 @ 12:26 am
what does HFIL mean?
March 30, 2019 @ 12:27 am
*Quote me on this*
$20 bucks says the trailer was to troll everyone, and when season 2 airs, it’s gonna be bat shit crazy. I’m not concerned one bit…
March 30, 2019 @ 12:29 am
Mob Psycho and One Punch Man were the "cool’ kids in highschool who ruled the school, but Mob Psycho went on to get a good job and become a millionaire while One Punch Man became the manager of your local McDonalds.
March 30, 2019 @ 12:29 am
I knew after I realized Shingo Natsume wouldn’t be coming back to direct it.
March 30, 2019 @ 12:29 am
I think it will be fine, and still be proper OPM.
March 30, 2019 @ 12:31 am
that was METAL!!!
March 30, 2019 @ 12:33 am
Whose the dude that did the black and white scratchy looking impact frames for the saitama vs boros fight and the midoriya vs todoroki fight in season 2 of MHA? I like that dude/chick (if theyre the same dude/chick)
March 30, 2019 @ 12:33 am
Can u make a video on voltron? That show exploded! So many disappointed violent fans
March 30, 2019 @ 12:34 am
Whats the music that plays around 3:38 (might have played beforehand too but I just need to know)
March 30, 2019 @ 12:34 am
This is so sad and also true for the anime Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha. The first 3 seasons and the first 2 movies were absolutely amazing and then after that, Funimation dropped the liscense to the amine. After several years, King Records Studio picked it back up and the quality, animation, and stories of seasons 4, the later movies, and even the spin-off season, were, by far, disappointing to watch.
