Is it gradient? Is that the word for it? Or maybe filter? I just hate how that shit looks. OPM1 looked so clean in comparison.

Samuel Long
blu-rays are going to fix everything, right?
Hunter Adams
The specific picture I replied too was a part of a sequence that looked "cool" if only because they just throw speedlines and that epilepsy blur into it that you only get a snippet of actual visual information before it goes on. A time less than a second. As far as openings go, it's not even a question of being jaded. This opening is just looks cheaper and it's cheezy. The vast majority of it is people posing or pans over static images. With some Microsoft Word text slid onto the screen and maybe some animation. When it does have people doing stuff it lacks the "punch" that the original opening had, there's no hype here for me.
This is how you get someone hyped for an episode.

Jose Sanders
There is still time to cancel S2 and start over with a different studio. It could be done for Winter 2020.
John Bennett
>There is still time to cancel S2
Most of the work should already be done. So from the perspective of the producer, you may as well let them finish it.
Landon Cook
What about sound design and storyboarding?
Elijah Rogers
The first one really wasn't that good.
Nicholas Cook
They look cool because Garou looks beastly and stylized there. Editing to protect people from seizures doesn't change that. It also indicates that some key scenes with the character will be captured well in the episodes.
The OP was clearly rushed but even then it still has good cuts with Garou and Saitama.
Jose Williams
There's one good cut with Saitama and it's just him running through rocks. Garou has the body proportions of an 8 year old in the cut where he fights Genos.
Dominic Murphy
>Garou has the body proportions of an 8 year old in the cut where he fights Genos.
Have you ever actually seen a 8 years old in your life?
Levi Evans
Saitama's punch is good too. There's a couple others that were pretty quick.
Not sure where you saw "8 year olds" that swole buddy. Garou's proportions are fine in those cuts.
Jayden Morales
It was still 2x more funny than the first season
Jonathan Williams
Jace Ward
>They look cool because Garou looks beastly and stylized there.
I don't think it looks good at all and it's just a generic "evil grin into blurred lines" scene. And saitama's scenes are even worse because all of his punches lack form or "punch" he's just kind of falling through a bunch of stars and rocks and stuff not synced up to music when he hits things so there's no weight to his blows.
Face it user, not everyone is going to slurp up this opening just because it has a single moment of crazy face on Garou.
Christian Martin
can't they just trace it?
Asher Cox
>generic
This buzzword again. OPM S1 didn't have a single groundbreaking sequence in its opening, had stylized hard shading just like in Garou's cuts to make Saitama look cool and you slurped it up.
Face it user, you're just jaded.
Justin Fisher
Is that really from the show? I have not watched it yet, but the colors look like it was done by a 13 yo on deviantart
Elijah Phillips
>Is that really from the show?
Yes.
Austin Watson
Now that I'm looking at it frame by frame, his arms don't look as tiny as I initially thought. But still, look at this blurry youtube screencap and tell me it's not awful regardless.
John Powell
>OPM S1 didn't have a single groundbreaking sequence in its opening
The fuck does it have to be groundbreaking to be good? How about having impact and weight to Saitama's punches overlayed with some better vocals? I articulated in brief the biggest weakness of the S2 opening; for a show called one punch man having lots of stills, obtrusive words overlayed to it, and having punches that lack any actual "punch" to them in favor of being a floaty mess. Blurry "action" sequences also don't help.
Seems to me like you're just trying to name call anyone who doesn't share your dogmatic opinion. Let me return to my own original statement, there's a lot of coping going on right now.
Parker Anderson
It may not be ground breaking (none really are) but it actually is good and looks good. The new op looks cheap with only a few good shots that you could miss immediately due to how fast or blurry it is.
John Gomez
The entire thing was "generic" in terms of animation tricks and styles used. They used all of those to make Saitama look cool in S1's OP, Murata even made an omake about that. You slurped it up.
Talking about some kind of arbitrary "impact" from Saitama's brief punches as if that's the most important thing? Talking down JAM's consistently great vocals? Honestly user, you're pretentious and jaded as fuck.
Anyone can see that S2 OP's visuals are simply rushed, but it still has good original cuts that show the animation team can actually do really nice looking scenes for key characters. That's good.
Owen Diaz
Random skin burns man
Gavin Wood
That's just one weird angle user. His proportions are fine.
Nathan Gonzalez
ah, so the head was on purpose to distract us from the shirt
Julian Russell
I rewatched it just now and the storyboard in the Garou vs Genos sequence is cool. The whole transition from Garou's stance to Saitama's punch afterwards is also a neat idea. Saitama's punch itself is animated really smoothly but its coloring is jarring.
Seriously though, the op can be made significantly better with pretty simple fixes. If they have the time, they should probably come back to it.
Nathaniel Perez
The weird part not the gradients is that unlike prison school these are pretty inconsistent with using them. Look at G4, he switches from moderate shading and normal metal to the weird CGI stuff when he moves or sometimes standing. Also on some characters they either have the gradient or have none at all or its on and off. Its weird, hopefully they can fix it because they were willing to fix some stuff for the first episode so its a start.
Tyler Garcia
The animator who post on twitter did those shots and one sequence of Saitama vs that camera monster(it goes so fast so its easy to miss). Murata reposted those shots in the Op and they look good. The problem is the op makes it so blurry and fast that its hard to see how good the shots are.
Ryan Rogers
there's a problem much deeper than some colour dickery
Hunter Garcia

Being completely unbiased, even if I hadn't seen season 1 the gradients would bother me. It's a shame because the animation is passable. But they really fucked up the coloring. The gradients aren't even an unavoidable problem. Just don't use them.

Lol, they’ve only finished 3 episodes at the most. Wouldn’t surprise me if they’re still working on episode 2.
Charles Williams
I just really hope the animation won't get worse than this. This is still watcheable, but I'm afraid they're going to have production issues during the season.
Levi Jackson
They had production issues since the get go its bound to have moments of quality sometime later.
Jaxon Stewart
Why do they personify King as a hulking beast when he's skinny as fuck? Does no one notice this?
Alexander Hernandez
I'm just hoping that faggot on twitter was wrong about that. But seeing how the trailer only had episode 1 content in it and they had so fix some of that then I doubt they aren't having production issues ...
Juan Myers

is this foreshadowing? this is the first time saitama looses his cool and gets genuinely angry, a dangerous thing from the most powerful being in the universe

Benjamin Jenkins
>this is the first time saitama looses his cool
No it isn't. He smacked the fuck out of that helmet in Bang's dojo after he kept losing to Bang at that rock paper scissors game.
Sebastian Powell
the Saitama keychain was also printed wrong, they company they outsource merchandise to is probably just being cheap and reusing a Superalloy figure
Jaxon Torres
orange man bad
Aaron Clark
because saitama is a bitch and can't compare to King, ever
Isaac Long
holy shit, is that why they switched studios for S2? this is getting meta.
Tyler Gomez
bitch, you serious? my gran used to make onion syrup with honey when i had sore throat, shit was very effective and suprisingly tasty
Charles Peterson
That's true, this is all pointing to him actually being very competitive to the point where loosing makes him loose his shit. That's still a terrible quality for someone who can wipe a quarter of a planet away in a single punch.
Also he is not really keeping people safe per say, he is literally waiting for attacks to happen first so he has an excuse. Kind of like "swing first", he isn't super intelligent so he had no idea that Genos would in fact win. And he could have stopped the ensuing destruction of half the city, but he doesn't really give a shit about people. Is Saitama slowly turning into a villain, or an ambivalent selfish person?
its the scars, makes people instantly cool
Elijah Sullivan
didn't he also get mad at a mosquito?
Michael Garcia
That filename XD, that story was terrifying, this is just horrifying
Adam Bennett
He's already been portrayed as a villain a couple of times. He just keeps doing his own thing. He may seem like he wishes he was popular at times but he doesn't really care. He doesn't report his hero work, because report it for him, or someone else gets the credit. And that bonus manga with the police. He's a neutral good
Brandon Taylor
It was pretty obvious they had some though I can see why no one wants to acknowledge it for the sake of mentioning... Him. But they showed they are willing to fix stuff with time so I have some hope it will just stay average and somewhat improve.
Kayden Brown
The whole point of the show is that being so powerful turned Saitama into an apathetic person. If you look at all the flashback scenes, Saitama used to actually care about saving others and being a good person. Now he doesn't care about anything beyond petty, selfish shit.
Hudson Adams
Test
Adam Bailey
So you're saying his own power has defeated his spirit? I guess that's true about the whole show though, having power doesn't fix who you are.
excited for next ep now, guess il just wait
and wait, and wait, and wait, and wait, an
Jace Clark
at long as they don't ruin best guy in season 2, i'm fine.
Justin Cook
he only has 1 or 2 short scenes if I remember, could still fuck it up
Grayson Rogers
To be completely fair, ONE has no right in complaining about QUALITY.
Now i kinda want S2 animation quality to be 100% ONE artstyle.
Kevin Foster
>Now i kinda want S2 animation quality to be 100% ONE artstyle.
would probably look better, simple artsyles are way easier to animate
Nathaniel Sanders
Yeah he only shows up during the posses association member and maybe one more that's about it.
Mason Hernandez
ONE has every right complaining about QUALITY, look at what a competent studio can do with Mob.
Elijah Gonzalez
It's funny how you can tell exactly where the key frames by seeing when the letters start and stop shifting.
James Reyes
>He's already been portrayed as a villain a couple of times.
You mean the times people smear his reputation or he willingly acts like a douche to draw the heat from other heroes? Saitama losing his cool playing fighting games says nothing because when he's literally been shouted at by dozens of civilians he handled it appropriately
Camden Hill
FUBUKI BESTO GAL
OOHH YEEE
Evan Watson
You guys ever have anyone OPM dreams? I've been having a bunch recently, and most of the time I'm Saitama. Like last night I was Saitama walking through some city, and Genos just kept walking through glass and breaking them instead of using a doorway. I asked him why he didn't use the doorways, and he says something along the lines of "oh, you're right, sorry". That got me curious, so I go "Hey, Genos, watch this.", and I walked through a line of walls and made a big mess. Then he followed me doing the same thing. Then I woke up.
Now I'm just waiting for a Tats dream.
Evan Lopez
No, but saitama likes to play games with king because its quite literally the only challenge in his life
Thats why he gets serious.
Anthony Williams
Murata put in a ton of effort into these chapters that they're adapting
I'm sure he's a bit unhappy to see it treated to lackluster compared to S1
Juan Jackson
Pretty sure he lost his cool when Most of City Z was yelling at him, especially when he called them all baldies, and that guy said "you're the baldy".
Robert Cox
too much work
Joseph Nelson
He can literally have as many challenges as he wants, if only he searched for them.
Alexander Price

just animation leaving any detail behind?
Luke Green
>The entire thing was "generic" in terms of animation tricks and styles used. They used all of those to make Saitama look cool in S1's OP, Murata even made an omake about that. You slurped it up.
Yeah but it still had some bits that were at least interesting to look at
>The increasingly large painting depictions of the Disaster ratings in front of Saitama
>The first major fight showing glints of light that are actually the light reflecting of Saitama's head from a distance
>The fucking star with the knife just having its head shattered
>all the action bits being well choreographed and synced to the music
>Final shot is Saitama with groceries looking serious, because that's the fucking thesis statement of the whole series
Nothing in the S2 opening had any remotely interesting depictions of any of the characters, let alone Saitama.
It's not a matter of money, it's a matter of fuckign inspiration and ambition. I'll settle for shit animation of the direction is good
Christopher Johnson
I don't dream except in rare case.
Charles Morris
Garou and King are spot on, Fubs it too moe-blobey, her features in the manga are very sharp, it's one of the things the ova for S01 got right.
Ryder Richardson
The only thing that is missing is the synced music.
Connor Campbell
She seems to be a doll
Alexander Brooks
Now someone please explain what happened to Genos
Evan Lewis
But all he did was yell back and walk away. Nothing villainous and he even massively held back when the tank top duo tried to attack him.
Austin Rivera
For an single-frame in-between - it's god tier, but then again, it's an opening, so they better have at least one decent sequence.
Design-wise, i feel he's too tan, and as far artstyle is concerned, the amount of shit they smear the screen with is obnoxiously distracting.
Colton Howard
Except S2 OP still doesn't have a comparable number of interesting shots or scenes with Saitama or any of the other characters for that matter.
It's much closer to most other shonen OPs where the full cast gets some unironic close-ups and then an action sequence. The close-ups don't do much beyond fellate the iconography of the characters and their designs, but it sort of misses the point of OPM and it shows a deficit of imagination
Carson Wood
> get it right for Tats
> but not for Fubuki
Their pupils are supposed to be the freaking same.
Chase Hernandez
Nothing
Brandon Hall
Bullshit, there are lots of nice shots of Saitama, taken directly from bonus chapters and covers.
The part where he kills great white shark and when he runs through monsters and ends in front of the universe are my favorite.
Jayden Sanchez
>The only thing that is missing is the synced music.
and interesting scenes. the fight bit between garou and genos was pretty boring, the only half interesting bit was saitama running through a ton of enemies.
the issues with this op can be summed up in the final shot: a big ensemble shot of all the s class characters together. unless you tell me it's purposefully trying to be like a shitty shonen op as a parody, then im more inclined to say that this is what jc staff actually thinks opm is: an unironic, played-straight shonen series
Jaxson Carter
user that is just unfair. I do agree with you that it is not s1's level but it wasn't bad and had interesting shots.
Colton Lopez
You can't expect the entire opening to be focusing on Saitama for this season.
Lucas Baker
There aren't enough frames in that cut to call anything an in-between.
Kevin Richardson
Name a S-class hero with better feats besides Tatsumaki and Blast.
Ethan Thompson
Luis Smith
Dude, S2's opening uses the exact same formula S1's did, except for an assortment of animated sequences it's not animated as smoothly. It also has Saitama punching random monsters and doing wacky shit that you liked so much.
OPM's opening never had memorable visuals and it stuck in people's heads because of two lines in the lyrics (again, the new song also follows the same formula). If you wanna talk clever art and audio direction look at Samurai Champloo's op from 15 years ago.
Landon Peterson
>punching a dragon-level threat in the face
My boy Glasses
Parker Ortiz
And I'd contest that by saying that none of them look even remotely as good as anything from the first OP.
The first OP kind of got OPM's premise. It never showed the actual punches in the first half, it just showed the before and after. It saved all the impacts for the final action bit, where it incidentally saved all its budget too. The way it actually showed those punches and action bits was well choreographed too.
The issue I have with this new season and this new OP is that it focuses too much on how individual frames look and how detailed those are, and neglects all the in-motion aspects of animation. Characters generally don't move in interesting ways, there's almost no feeling of weight or impact. One of the best things about the original OP was how it contrasted this guy with looney-tune strength with a hyper-serious art style.
I did actually like this bit, probably should have used this for the ending of the OP
I agree, but then they should lean into Garou and the S Class heroes more and treat Saitama sort of how he's seen by other characters: as a joke.
Here's how I'd choreograph it
>Intro half is focused on Garou in a similar way to how S1 focused on lone-shots of Saitama
>Show Garou's backstory a little, as a kid, then as a student under Bang, then fighting the other students and eventually fighting the other heroes
>At the halfway mark, show the S class heroes stepping in and fighting other monsters (frame it in a way taht maybe you make it look like Garou is aligned with the monsters)
>Each hero does something really cool and in the background you have Saitama doing a similar thing but to a more extreme degree
>Save Genos for the end as he goes to fight Garou directly, but accidentally brushes past Saitama, where we finish the OP with that shot in
The issue I have is that this whole OP feels like it was made by a company that thinks that an OP HAS to have scenes from the upcoming season in it
Sebastian Price
Seriously
>beat every single one of Fubuki's little club members in a row
Matthew Wood
>If you wanna talk clever art and audio direction look at Samurai Champloo's op
Yeah it's fucking god-like
It has fewer animated bits than OPM's first op but looks much more stylish
youtube.com
Evan Gutierrez
The gradient shit looks cheap as hell and just doesn't work. Shading needs to follow the form of the object or it looks flat.
Also can the chromatic aberration meme just fucking die already?
Alexander Taylor
I agree but I'm also going to say that the actual way this OP is laid out isn't really something I like.
Again, I don't need really smooth animation. S1 had tons of still shots but it summed up the idea of the series without actually having to show a ton of specific events from it.
S2 feels like it's trying to pull as many specific events and characters from the upcoming season because that's the formula for how shonen OP go.
Here's the thing: you can honestly cut out basically every character from this OP that isn't Garou. Cause they aren't that important. You could honestly cut out Saitama altogether, cause he REALLY isn't important in the shit that's getting covered this time around.
Garou should be center stage, even above the S Class heroes
Jaxson Robinson
Yeah, they even put hot-dog.
Caleb Reed
It's hilarious how big the gap between Sonic and Flash is now.
Even two ninjas around Sonic's level transformed into dragon level monsters still got one shotted.
Adam Watson
Right top, for the blind.
Cameron Nguyen
To be fair it was a "one shot" by his strongest attack.
Aiden Morgan
>redo S1 OP but with Garou vs heroes instead of Saitama vs monsters
mite be interesting
Andrew Turner
Re-watching these images, elder might not be cgi at close shots.
Samuel James
Nah, the ending was perfect. Shows that at core, the serie is a comedy.
Dominic Walker
He’s CGI. It.s just well made CGI where there are no 3d textures and shading, it’s just handrawn. Looks more carefully, each bits keeps repeating exactly the same way, the shapes are too consistent.
I’m waiting for how it actually looks in the fight, but this looks good so far.
Brayden Bailey
Yeah, but the comedy comes from the contrast of the serious/incredible and the mundane
James Myers
They can't just cut them out user. S1's op also had scenes with S classes, even though they were shorter. Garou has more screentime than anyone but Saitama in this op anyway.
The point is concept is absolutely the same: an array of animated sequences showcasing characters in the season. They could have directed something more interesting by mirroring Saitama and Garou for example (look at SamChamp's OP stressing the parallels between Jin and Mugen) but you must realize it's way more time consuming to direct than just slapping a bunch of cool and wacky looking scenes together.
Justin Robinson
Garou isn’t even that much the focus in season 2. The series is still called OnePunch Man too. This kind of op wouldn’t happen.
Joseph Perez
>Said dragon level threat not 5 minutes later used him as his punching bag.
I like Glasses, but he still has a far way before him, even if his improvements are impressive.
Noah Moore
I too, wish to know when the proper sequel comes.
Isaac Hughes
> S1's op also had scenes with S classes
A little animation for Tats and one still frame for the rest.

Here is also phoenix man, who are the other two?
Kevin Cook
Fuck I would've preferred that, why imitate something you know you can't do well? Might as well try something fresh and who knows, it might've worked really well, rather than this cover up.
Nolan Reyes
Garou was at most a demon at that point, what the fuck are you on about.
Julian Perez
Yeah, I know, I said they were shorter for a reason. S1 also didn't focus on characters aside from Saitama as much. S2 does. Again, yes, Garou is the biggest focus, but they can't simply cut out everyone else. They followed the same formula S1's op did.
Austin Powell
I'm sorry
Cooper Bennett
They can't just cut them out user. S1's op also had scenes with S classes, even though they were shorter. Garou has more screentime than anyone but Saitama in this op anyway.
True but here's the thing: The events of S1 were largely centered around Saitama's actions
You look at the shit happening in the manga for this arc, how many chapters are literally just about what Garou is doing with maybe the occasional panel showing what Saitama is doing?
It's a lot
Here's the events that involve Saitama in the upcoming season:
>Martial Arts Tournament
>King stuff
>Fubuki Group
Here are the events that involve Garou
>Martial Arts Tournament
>Garo vs A class heroes
>Garo vs Tank Tops
>Garo vs Metal Bat
>Centipede stuff
Garou is literally the driving narrative entity in this season. There's a transition, sure, but the OP should really be way more about him.
Maybe it's just me but I generally feel like the moment Garou is introduced, he's basically framed as the protagonist of the story since he's essentially Saitama mid-transformation
But the S Class heroes are about as important in this season as they were in the last. There is literally no reason they can't cut them out since there aren't really that many people who would notice them gone.

Joseph Cooper
It's not a gradient, it's a fucking airbrush.
Blake Williams
This gives me some hope. Although I care more about the Garou fights than Suiryu's. It just aired but is it normal to have all of the good looking scenes credited to one animator? Not only did this guy do the Genos aerial Incinerate scene but also all the parts in the opening that actually look kind of cool.
Brandon Wood
Their rendering is complete garbage. Fucking hate it.
Tyler Jones
>Dude, S2's opening uses the exact same formula S1's did,
Season 2's opening places far more emphasis on giving each character that will appear a .5-1s still whereas S1 did that at the very end and consolidated everyone with the exception of Tatsumaki.
>It also has Saitama punching random monsters and doing wacky shit that you liked so much.
Big difference being that we got a 20 second sequence in the S1 OP that was both synched to music and had a tangible sense of impact on most of the hits. S2 has saitama floating through enemies the vast bulk of his punches which kills the sense of momentum since it's not coordinated with the music at all.
The big difference between both openings is that both have roughly 20 seconds devoted to action instead of stills. S1 starts with Saitama in the quarry fighting the ape men and goes it's duration. This sequence marketably has more consistent and clear instances of action that is animated smoothly and transitions smoothly. S2 has no equivalent because it's 20s action sequence starts when Saitama gets his hero tag and as previously mentioned. It lacks impact because the punches themselves aren't drawn that well and aren't synched to the music. That musical "punch" was key in the first OP. In general, S2 places too much emphasis on using speedlines and having characters exist in a void.
>OPM's opening never had memorable visuals
Speak for yourself.
>Saitama squaring up against the threat indicators
>Saitama getting struck by lightning
>Taking down the snowman
>Punching Star man in the face
>The opening fist igniting as it accelerates towards
It had memorable stuff. Best S2 has is barely a second of Garou and Metal bat that's fucked to hell and back by filters.
>look at Samurai Champloo's op
Why shift the goals, this isn't about the best anime OP of all time, this is what S2 is lacking that was present in S1 which made it a better opening than the JC Staff showings.
Isaac Johnson
Is it really a feat worthy punch when your opponent barely feels it? Might as well call it a meaningless tap desu senpai.
Josiah Ward
is this an issue with 'tweeners?
Brandon Wood
>Punching Star man in the face

Ryan Price
The best part is that everyone who sees the OP for the first time goes "does that star have a knife?"
Jeremiah Carter
It's vaguely meaningful in that he even managed to land it. The impact was indeed meaningless though.
Dominic Murphy
I would have at least said "It was alright".
Jonathan Bailey
user, I can open my anime folder and watch that op again to autistically recite the "favorite" sequences in greentext like you but that does not make the op memorable.
Ask any normalfag who watched the show once or twice what they actually remember from the first op's visuals, at best they'll answer "Saitama punched a star monster and threw a serious punch", at worst they'll say "Saitama was punching things?". S1's op did not have memorable visuals or even a particularly interesting concept. It's an array of animated sequences just like S2's op, except it was animated more smoothly, THAT's the biggest difference. I'd even say that S2 has more memorable visuals, if only because it references distinct scenes from the story to be explored in the season and extras - the latter will be caught and noted by mangafags immediately.

The opening would be easily fixed if they didn't run through 8 drawings in less than a second. The in-betweens are there but no human eye can perceive them, my only hope is that the actual Garou fights fully show his moves instead of a blurry mess.
Or even worse... A black screen with white lines representing the waterpolo carbonated fist, and then a still image of him in a finishing stance and the enemies already defeated.
Caleb Perry
Owen Martinez
I mean, the scenes were perfectly done in opening one like that 3 2 1 let's go with the threat levels rising and it kinda got memes,and of course the serious punch and that shot of all heroes & sonic and mumen rider as the opening shouts HEEROOOOOOOO..
But if we're talking memorable, it did have one. The very beginning with the red fist on the screen, I'm sure it's burned in everyone's memories by now followed by ONE PUUUUUUUUUUUNCH
Logan Gomez
Also King hates it
Joseph Davis
I think they purposely rushed just because its not s1 quality or kooks that good. Your right about hard to tell because the animator showed his cuts and they looked good but you wouldn't be able to tell since they cut past the good stuff and linger on the poor parts.
Christian King
>implying the theme song wasn't better
Subjective. Objectively only memorable to most people because of two lines (ONE PUUUUNCH and HERO) in the lyrics. S2's song uses the same formula.
>implying the execution of the concept wasn't better
Already said the animation was better, that's a no-brainer.
What makes an op memorable visually? A vivid concept and a flawlessly simple/clean storyboard with no bloat. For example using a specific palette, doing juxtaposition between main characters, referencing key story moments the viewer is bound to remember. S1's op had at best three memorable visual sequences among its array of random punches and sakuga. The closeup to Saitama's red gloved fist, the ayylmao star monster and Saitama's serious punch. It was a well animated OP but conceptually it's nothing fucking special compared to the new op and numerous other ops on the market. The new OP is literally telling you: Saitama still punches things and there's gonna be a plot with Garou and others. It does get the idea across you know, despite the lack of smooth animation.
Noah Gomez
underrated post
Andrew Garcia
Well but memorability isn't the only metric or measure of the quality of an OP.
Like you said, tons of shit in the first were well done but a lot of the scenes conveyed or summarized a lot of the jokes or ideas of OPM in a pretty enjoyable way
There's tons of bits that show off how lonely Saitama feels as the strongest hero with no rival. There are the bits that are just the before-after of Saitama's fights in the beginning that sort of leave it to the viewer to imagine what the impact looked like.
Again, it's not just the smoothness of the animation but the purpose of each shot. There is a TON of fat in S2's OP that doesn't serve a thematic purpose or a plot purpose.
Things you could cut out of S2 OP:
>Saitama from the Intro
>Choose either the S Class heroes or Garou to be the focus of the Opening; not both
>cut out the shots of the monsters association. It's plot relevant but not so much for the amount of screentime they get
>the panning shots of each hero class
>most of the animation in each hero's calling card bit: either animate well or use a single well-drawn still
>the action from the story: they actually aren't that important since most people don't know or remember who any of these characters are.
John Lee
>capture the tone and idea of a thing
Serious bara dude Saitama punching things very seriously in the first op captured the tone and idea of OPM?
Ryder Harris
Leo Sullivan
Having read the manga it left me perplexed to focus so much on the hero association and S class heroes when I thought the focus of this opening was going to be Garou and the tournament. OP 1 did it better just showing a full shot of the group together and dedicating the actual op to other non-spoilery scenes.
Though I'm not the user you were originally arguing. I'm not satisfied with the message of the opening, it just tries to be a summary of the whole season and that's lazy for me. Garou training and a bit of his childhood to make us think of him as a protagonist... Some scenes of Saitama just walking with King or playing games with him... Genos doing the dishes.. I'd rather something like that.
Anthony Cox
>What makes an op memorable visually?
Scenes that show instead of telling.
>A vivid concept and a flawlessly simple/clean storyboard with no bloat
I can agree but I would say that this OP actually has a ton of bloat, between panning shots and calling cards of characters that are not important to the story or even to the main cast (Saitama, Garou, Genos).
The issue is that in this OP, the only things that fit into that 'vivid concept' or 'clean storyboard' are the bits with Saitama. Everything else is a mess from the Garou vs Metalbat bit to the Garou vs Saitama bit to the random Fubuki and Tatsumaki bit. None of those create a story that the viewer can follow within the scope of the OP itself.
The issue is that referencing key story moments that are just fights really doesn't matter and doesn't deserve the amount of screentime that this OP gave.
>conceptually it's nothing fucking special compared to the new op and numerous other ops on the market
I'd disagree. Most nearly every shot or pair of shots (as is the case with the before-afters) is acting as an advertisement for the basic premise of the series. It doesn't reference any of the specific story beats cause none of them matter as much as the concept of the One Punch Man and getting people on board with that.
Again, I think they should have focused on a specific entity in this trailer instead of just doing the same bullshit that most shonen OPs do of having some "REMEMBER THIS" bits from the upcoming season.
Jaxson Hughes
>it just tries to be a summary of the whole season and that's lazy for me.
Where? Except the Saitama vs Gouketsu scene, there isn't any summary.
Blake Williams
I can break it down for you
>lone shots of Saitama accentuate the loneliness he feels as the strongest hero
>before-after bits with monsters leaves it to the viewer's imagination how the fight went down
>actual fight bits demonstrate Saitama's capabilties, moving from the serious to the comedic
>final shot caps off the action sequence with Saitama equally as serious bringing vegetables home, which creates a contrast between how he was initially depicted (as a super hero) and how he actually is (as an average guy).
There's some fat in there like the sort of egregious bits in the middle before the big action sequence of close-ups on Saitama's fists and of his full-body shot. But for the most part, every scene is either part of the set-up of a joke or focusing on some aspect of Saitama's character. A big aspect of OPM is that it lampoons shonen shows, so showing a hero that is actually completely indifferent in such a serious art-style is part of that joke.
Liam Roberts
>It was a well animated OP but conceptually it's nothing fucking special compared to the new op and numerous other ops on the market.
An opening having mostly original content not found in the source material, and conveying the power and isolation of the main character which are major themes is more outstanding in today's market than the S2 opening which only shoes stuff lifted from the manga, and the market which generally does exactly what the S2 opening does.
What are you smoking? An opening that doesn't spoil plot moments from the show is rare.
Liam Bailey
You faggots are so whiny it's astounding. I can understand animation criticism re: the opening but its concept is simple as always. OPM characters do X and Y.
This season is just the start of Garou's arc with a bunch of other character introductions. They can't even do proper parallel shots between Garou and Saitama because they'd be spoiling the third fucking season too then and last I checked you faggots complained about story spoilers in the op.
It's like you don't even understand what you want.
Lincoln Sanchez
True. I watched it again.
m.youtube.com
First 9 seconds are OK, it already showed all the relevant heroes so from the very start I'll say the introduction cards were unnecessary. Bang and Bomb are even doing the same stance. The monster association I guess it's fine to show it since they'll be the ending part.
Then we get the S class heroes shown AGAIN, a ton of cards, and the tournament with Charanko, Suiryu and every other participant, Gouketsu, Metal bat vs Garou, Genos vs Garou, Orochi and Gyoro Gyoro.. I do count showing them as making a summary of the season.
They kinda showed all characters that will come into play already, I dunno I think they should have been more subtle. The part with Saitama running and punching stars was fine.
Alexander Butler
It's just recapping the events of the season without actually stringing together a narrative or emphasizing anything about the season or characters.
Unless you told me it's trying to purposefully be bad to make fun of shonen OPs, I'm more inclined to say JC Staff think that OPM is just a normal shonen series.
Owen Lewis
Or just have Garou fighting random heroes?
The issue with S2's OP is that it focuses on shit that just is not important
Bang and his brother aren't important.
The martial arts tournament isn't important
That shit happens but you know what isn't shown in the first OP? Mumen Rider vs Sea King. They don't even bother showing off one of the emotional high points of the first season cause it literally doesn't matter
Jayden Hughes
Do we have the translated lyrics of the opening? Might explain why the shots are there.
Angel Lopez
Not yet, I don't think so
We know the name of it is "Apostle of Silence" I think

Why didn't Madhouse take up Season 2? OPM was a normie cult classic, it was easy fucking money.

That can even be done with 2d animation when the animated parts are the same.
Levi Hill
Original content no one remembered. Except for the ayylmao star monster of course.
>An opening that doesn't spoil plot moments from the show is rare.
Because a lot of anime series focus on a story and multiple characters while the first season of OPM was clearly banking on the obvious to anyone premise of Saitama being a one punch man, which doesn't even work anymore. Visually the op was a bloated storyboard that ended up as an array of non-memorable sakuga scenes, which is not rare at all.

Also, he chose JC staff to ruin the anime, so Murata would leave and he could cash all the money, only to be disappointed, again.
Adam Adams
But it's clearly a path they can go down.
Making an OP that focused on either Garou's desire to become a monster and vendetta against heroes wouldn't be that hard to do. You can create an OP like that without spoiling shit
Elijah Mitchell
>The issue with S2's OP is that it focuses on shit that just is not important

My dude if you wanted the opening to focus on establishing Garou's character as a theme, then Bang should've gotten even more screentime.
Like I said, you don't even know what you want.
Parker Hill
True, but unless the OP is JUST about garou, then Bang and Bomb fighting the centipede isn't important. Bomb especially is irrelevant.
Focusing on specific fights from the season isn't that helpful or interesting because no one knows who most of these characters or enemies are yet.
Bang himself isn't important, only his relationship to Garou which is completely absent in this OP

It's not a gradient it's clearly airbrush overlay thing.
Ah! I see, yeah Prison School used muted, almost sepia color pallettes for that, so in combination with the airbrush effect it gave the thing had this quasi-film grain/newspaper look whereas with one punch man you really want to go with four tones and vibrant, solid, color. Guess the director isn't that into western comics.
Legit always wondered this: What is /pol/ feeling on So* sauce? Do white supremacists not eat chinese food ever?
Blake Jackson
>Original content no one remembered. Except for the ayylmao star monster of course.
Even in this thread people talk about at least 2 other moments that stuck out. But your shifting the point. It's not about being memorable it's whether or not the OP is special compared to others. It actually is but your evading admitting that
>Because a lot of anime series focus on a story and multiple characters while the first season of OPM was clearly banking on the obvious to anyone premise of Saitama being a one punch man,
So it's different than the vast majority of openings that focus on spoiling the plot to the viewer? OK then.
>Visually the op was a bloated storyboard that ended up as an array of non-memorable sakuga scenes, which is not rare at all.
Being a series of action vignettes isn't new, having original content is as well as conveying the themes of the first season through said original content.
2nd season OP has no focus which has been discussed at length in this thread. It could have focused on Garou, or at least emphasized the major encounters more, or even done original sequences to help convey it's own themes. It accomplished none of these and is more in line with a Shonen OP than something as unique and exciting as the first season.
Ethan King
Yes, you can. My personal idea for this season's opening was something not spoilery but still straight out of the manga, i.e. comparing Saitama and Garou's lifestyles. Saitama's boredom vs Garou's thrill, the simplicity of Saitama's fighting style vs the intricacy of Garou's martial arts, etc. Would've looked cool. But it's actually pretty damn hard to direct, storyboard and animate. I'm not surprised the opening focuses on plot elements and the cast - that also works, and the only "issue" is animation quality in this case.
Anthony Bailey
its not just the anime. recent chapters in the manga just beat around, prolonging the manga. many unnecessary and not all that entertaining

OPM's first op spoiled its premise because plot was not even the season's strongest point. Same difference.
Second season's op is also an array of (less) animated sequences that focuses on the plot and cast. This season does introduce a lot of characters we'll follow for many years after all. Guess OPM is a "shounen" huh, or maybe a "seinen", or just any anime with a huge cast and more than one genre? For the love of god, unclench.

Not when we have a specific criteria of "OP's that spoil the PLOT of the season" as in

Season 1 didn't do any of that. It did something arguably better by just focusing on the general circumstances of the main character but without dragging the rest of the story into it.
>Second season's op is also an array of (less) animated sequences that focuses on the plot and cast
And it's subjectively boring compared to the Sakuga you seem to loath in the first season's OP.
>. Guess OPM is a "shounen"
That's not what was meant you sensitive little shit. I mean if you go turn on any of the running shonen anime series right now. Their opening does the exact same shit of
>show every character that will be in the arc
>show snippets of major encounters
which is a dime a dozen unlike making an opening that has original content and better choreography for it's sequences with better visual clarity.
>For the love of god, unclench.
Take your own advice. You're in for a long season of people complaining about this anime and if you're getting bent out of shape because people prefer another OP it's going to be rough for you.

I'm not the one typing out walls of greentext just to cry about your irrelevant and uniformed opinion, user. So really, unlench.
S1's opening visuals weren't particularly memorable, it had a bloated storyboard too, and milking the shit out of Saitama's one punch premise doesn't even work anymore given the varied content we actually have, so you're crying about freaking nothing. The animation in the op wasn't as good as it could've been. That's a sound observation you could've made and called it a day. There's nothing wrong with the song or focusing on the plot and cast in the opening. You're just being an obnoxiously whiny bitch.

I've explained various reasons why the S1 opening is subjectively better than the S2 one. What else have I done besides that? You shifted from whether or not the openings were "memorable" or "unique" and have now resorted to projecting because you couldn't refute any point made and instead just tried to sweep them under the rug by arbitrarily deciding what amounted to a memorable moment. Or just saying that the only difference was in art quality. Or just ignoring any explanation and substituting your own.

You spoke as if the first OP had an abundance of so called "interesting scenes" and I refuted that it's not even memorable visually aside from three moments tops. It's a bunch of sakuga with Saitama looking all slick and one punching shit.
If you so desperately want the opening to capture "the tone and contents" of the series, S2's does and it's not a "shounen opening" by your dumbass proxy. Period. It's not as well animated but that's a whole another discussion.
Bentley Nelson
>You spoke as if the first OP had an abundance of so called "interesting scenes"
Where? Who said it had an abundance of anything? And who is defining an interesting scene? Is it interesting it it just looks cool and gets synced to the music? Why do you hate Sakura if that's what would enhance an opening? Are you that insecure because madhouse knocked it out of the park and JC couldn't even get to 1st base?
>and it's not a "shounen opening"
It is if you read what I defined that as. I could just say it's generic as all hell but someone already beat me to the one punch for that one. S2 has a generic format and isn't as another user said "fresh and hype" it's rote and stale instead.
The issues with season 2's opening aren't just worse animation. But that would be making the conversation go full circle again.
Ian Williams
>Sakura
Really, fuck right off phoneposter. Scroll up. I don't hate sakuga. Obviously sakuga makes things look better and kids eat it up. If every animated sequence in S2's opening had sakuga you wouldn't bitch like you're doing right now. Guaranteed.
There's nothing "fresh" about S1's op milking the title's premise in an array of badass looking animated sequences for manime enthusiasts. S2's song works on the exact same formula as S1's and the op literally builds you up for the scenes to come. You're an actual pissbaby crying about nothing. Stop with the needless pretense and just say the text font is wack and the animation isn't as good.

That's a given, maybe if it was arranged in a way that could actually have more than 2 consecutive seconds of animation that could be a possibility. Instead it's focused on a bunch of lingering stills of the cast for the series just like most other openings.
>There's nothing "fresh" about S1's op milking the title's premise in an array of badass looking animated sequences for manime enthusiasts.
It's is fresh to get good visuals that aren't just borrowing from the story and you really failed to make it sound like the S1 anime did a bad thing by being badass.

You are desperate. I'm not denying that S2's op's animation could've been much better and helped build more hype for the scenes they're teasing thanks to sakuga. The animation and the out of place font are its main problems. The songs have the exact same fucking formula period: You are, however, grasping at straws like a hysterically whiny manchild.
Lucas Murphy
Apparently Orochi and golden sperm seem to be round the same level. Murata was unsure but he did say Orochi would have the better techniques.(seems to be a Boros vs Garou situation) Also Boros generals would all lose to Orochi even if they teamed up.

How would JC staff animate this fight scene? Heavy amount of panning still shots?
Robert Young
They wont do anything like this.
This is by far the best anime fight scene i had the pleasure to watch.
Anthony Clark
>manga is like 100 chapters
>web comic even more
>still haven't seen watchdog fight

Benjamin Sullivan
>by his strongest attack.
That's not even his strongest attack, that comes when he fights with Garou.
Carter Kelly
Bang going serious by eliminating a good deal of Cadres like it's nothing. I don't thing the 1 trillion Black Sperm spec would have been unbeatable for him. It will make no sense for Psykos to be able to hold him in the manga though since Garou can resist her so we shall see.
Aiden Gonzalez
Don't forget about Metal Bat vs EC

How the hell Murata chapter is still really far behind from ONE chapter when murata constantly draw OPM manga nowadays ?
Thomas Russell
One send him draft and has been expanding and adding stuff he couldn't or didn't put in the webcomic. That's why its behind. Due to one sending him the boards Murata has said on stream and other times that he can't draw a chapter unless he gets them from One. He does add his own stuff at time mostly his own characters or choreography but that's about it.(usually with One's consent and others without)

Cooper Wood
Meh, art wasnt that bad
But editing and sound design is just awful
Like we are to believe the whole Bird fight happened in total silence and that this giant bird just quietly crushed to the ground?
Why is this body overplayed over the current scene and not shown after it, would make for a cool shot to slowly start zooming out and speed up and speed up to show how much it takes up on the street while having Saitama narrate in the back
Whole episode is full of tiny moments like this, where it shows the lack of experience, talent, effort or budget from the director and main keyframe animators.
About what i expected form the trailer, a rather poor copy of last season animation wise, really hope they saving up budget for next episodes since if this is the best that they have to offer i will just dtop this season mid way,
Owen Rodriguez
>saving up budget for next episodes
allegedly only two episodes were animated a whole month before the air date
Ian Myers
Dep sea guy was supposed to be super strong if i recal, and then he power ups mid fight to get even stronger, wipes the floor with genos.
Also keep in mind outside of tatsumaki the s class isnt nearly as strong as the top monsters, saitama takes out all the strongest ones we see.
Liam Wood
Holy shit we are dealing NGE episode 26 tier or animation in the last few episode then, right?
Ryan Carter
bullshit, those shows take a full year to animate, you need your key frames months before you send them out in the in betweeners to get voice acting done, and then months for final editing, coloring and correction, any cgi elements, additional va work, sound mixing etc
3months+ is the latest i imagine last shots get animated for such a show that will be aired on a weekly schedule, especially when you hear about months long delays is animation which is the norm
There was 0 reason to push the release date if it wasnt ready, this isnt one piece or another weakly shonen show where they will just stitch together clips from last episodes call it a recap or do a 5 minute summary if episode isnt ready since you have a deal with 5 tv stations in different countries and if they arent ready its time for to commit sudoku
Jordan Bell
>Like we are to believe the whole Bird fight happened in total silence and that this giant bird just quietly crushed to the ground?
That was fine though.
Michael Clark

Jordan Moore
In all this talk about the opening, how come nobody pointed out how shit all the hero inserts are? Zombieman looks so uncomfortable holding an axe, Sonic's legs are hilarious for the brief moment they are on screen, I don't know what's going on with Darkshine's eyes, and Saitama in his charanko disguise has the dumbest rotation animation I'd seen until I saw how they had him turn in the webm from the OP. This shit is so laughably phoned in.
Daniel Brooks
He said it himself. It was his strongest offensive attack for sure.
Joshua Turner
I hope they'll fix just couple of frames in BDs, this shot ALMOST, just fucking ALMOST works, but you can point out exact moment it jumps the shark.
Though, I doubt they'll do anything about egghead head.
Jaxson Wilson
Did ONe pay you to suck his dick or are you 2 whores doing it for free? Neither 2 weeks have passed from their encounter.
William Anderson
After King said he was a liar, he blacked out for some moments due to fear and that is why he pissed his pants. He wasn't unconcious but wasn't fully concious either.
Jose Thomas
Almost as bad as the persona 3 and 4 gradients.
Julian Smith
The rotation of Saitama is taken from that Sonic scene in the manga that madouse didn't animate, so i don't know what the fuck you are talking about.
Joshua Bell
Don't see how that's sucking off One aslo he did change how he fights as you saw in his fight with Melzargard.

This x1000000, directing, transitions, editing and pacing were all horrible.
Colton Reed
Green text insult is not an argument. I'm just asking you to grow a little.
Brandon Wood
Since otherwise the scene has no continuity you dumb twat
You are shown the bird attacking then Saitama getting ready, cut to King for 3 seconds or so, back to Saitama with his hand still in air and feather flying down around him
The logical conclusion is that he punched the bird on the camera cut, not that he stood in that position for a minute or what ever and that those are magical anti gravitational feathers that only fall down when directly looked at
Even if he King didnt hit the punch he should hear the giant bird crashing to the ground, the havoc of honking cars screaming people, falling rock, what ever
The scene is badly edited and badly sound mixed, reeks of amaturish low effort shit. but yeah gobble up that low quality cock, fuck cinematography and good keyframing, i mean who needs it
Connor Lewis
Why do you think Saitama punching the bird has no effect on its falling speed?
While the feathers are subject only to gravity pull.
Logan Gonzalez
Why waste your time on these anime only fucktards? Is pretty clear they're just brainless consumer dickriders that aren't really true fans of the series.
Lucas Gutierrez
Blurry mess with shining particle effects all over the screen.
Mason Taylor
>true fans
Andrew Hall
Ok, then how the fuck you explain the breaking of point of view.
We are clearly to be observing this scene from Kings perspective, yet we get the bird body overlay
King was back in the room, he had no way too look outside of the broken wall, the logical place to reveal the body would be after Saitama goes away, would allow King to look in awe of his power, and allow for a full body shot with that awkward shot in shot composition
This is a clear continuity mistake, as it introduces another narrator while King is still fucking narrating his own life, it gives king the omniscient qualities of a god that he clearly dosnt poses

Watch it in a better quality. Seemed like that to me as well, at first. Some osts were just re mixed version of the previous season's osts.
Andrew Hughes
>its shit on purpose
quality argument there kiddo
Xavier Williams
Confirmed: Saitaima is an ayy lmao.
Luke Bennett
Nobody has seen King fight. All they know is that he has never lost to a monster and that there is a terrifying sound whenever he's about to "fight."
For all they know the "King Engine" is part of a powering up process and he turns Super Saiyan or something.
Caleb White

Juan King
>The issue I have with this new season and this new OP is that it focuses too much on how individual frames look and how detailed those are, and neglects all the in-motion aspects of animation.
Camera angles also played a big part of what made season one so great. Action scenes should never feel so static.
Bentley Price
Garou eyes need to be a little bigger, but ok
Fubuki's head needs to be a little bigger, but still ok
KIing looks horrible, even madhouse couldn't make him look good, on a scale of fuck up, JCSTAFF (of course) takes the cake, his chin isn't that long and pointy, eyes too small, he looks like an oldman, he is supposed to have a "stone-like" face
Jeremiah Clark
> KIing looks horrible
For god's sake this was like the worst King frame of the episode, he looked great in the big majority, have you even watched the episode?
Cooper Perry
He knows martial arts as well and goes at Garou with his lightspeed fist.
Juan Gray
Yes.
Austin Perez
No it wasn’t.
Logan Evans
But it's not even just animation that is a downgrade. It's the directing, shot composition, timing, everything. That first episode felt hallow.
Benjamin Jenkins
3 days left before Episode 2 and 6 days left before a new manga chapter.
Luis Campbell
What seems to be clear is that they wont put much effort in the fights that dont really matter
Genos first fight in Season 1 wasnt anything special either(Mosquito Girl).

This does look a lot better.
Benjamin Bailey
Enjoying feces isn't an argument either.
Cameron Johnson
>How would JC staff animate this fight scene? Heavy amount of panning still shots?
Less frames and detail, choppy at times, toned down angles, there would be less enthusiasm in genos attacks, effects would have less power and fluently to them, CGI in places
Joseph Lee
I was expecting animation downgrade but holy hell the pacing was dog shit and gag timing was horrendous.
Thomas Diaz
This and this. The animation was the least of the problems in episode 1. Literal monkeys working on this series and we SHOULD be worried for the rest.
Blake Stewart
>and gag timing was horrendous.
Nah, it was totally fine.
Joshua Wood
If you laughed at any of the scenes in ep 1 then you're probably the type that finds everything funny. More power to you, I guess.
Kayden Allen
Nathaniel Hughes
god please don't show me this
Luis Myers
I kinda wonder if people even saw the same fight, it looked plenty fine to me. Yeah, it's not S1 ep1 tier, but since this first episode isn't supposed to be a stack of big fights like the 1st ep of s1 was, I'm guessing (and hoping) that they're preparing for the next episodes which will have much more fights.
The one thing that pissed me off a lot was the fact that the final punch of Genos wasn't animated though.
Mason Brown
A shade of the first season. Frames just sit still for huge amounts of time with no motion. They dont even bother animating their mouths when talking
Liam Bailey
>7/10
Jeeez you have low standards, and it sounds so bad that I had to turn off my headphones.
So please, can somone tell me how this motherfucker:

Tyler Rogers
>gag timing was horrendous
Season 1 was trash with the gags, probably worse.
"Pay for my ceiling", or "Today its special sales date", they were not funny.
Connor Russell
THEY DIDNT EVEN ANIMATE THEIR MOUTHS WHEN TALKING DUDE.
I have no clue what show you watched. The pacing was awful, it was hard to tell who was talking and who was in an internal monologue. Huge amounts of cut corners and still framed motion.
Hudson Cox
>Is it really a feat worthy punch when your opponent barely feels it?
Being one of the only people in the world who can say they got a clean hit off the martial arts autist, while being the least powerful person in the group is pretty feat worthy.
Cameron Taylor
>THEY DIDNT EVEN ANIMATE THEIR MOUTHS WHEN TALKING DUDE.
What are you smoking?
Cooper Johnson
Rewatch the king saitama scene with the bird. If someone walks and talks their mouth doesnt move. It so bad that it muddles the narration and the in character dialogue
Ethan Richardson
This is the kind of person that uses "filters" to insult shows.
Levi Peterson
Also they barely animated the fighting at all. 3/4ths of Genos fighting the robot knight was opacity shifts over a handful of still frames, it was a blurry mess.
Jaxon Edwards
>while being the least powerful person in the group
Glass didn't get one shoted by Garou, he's arguably on the level of top A class heroes

so you haven't watched the fight?
Adam Butler
This is really breaking me too. So little attention to detail after having such an amazing first season of smart edits and screenplay.
We may never see mumen rider take 3 1/2 seconds to get of his bike like a comically real human. Saitama introspecting and testing gravity on the moon.
The cuts were jarring and the pacing hurt my soul and was even a little confusing to watch.
Dont even get me started on the criminal recruitment with Garou and Sonic. Where was the crowd murmur as people started to listen. Where was the establishing shot with and then without the papers on the podium?
Hell where were the wide shots in any of the damn scenes. It was so tight I was in a maze! The whole episode had this issue, why they couldn't be assed to inter-cut more wide shots with context is beyond me. Or include building geometry that isnt in the backdrop.
Noah Martinez
what was wrong with the berserk op?
Dylan Johnson
nothing makes me sadder than this. This isn't a simple problem.
Xavier Davis
Are you kidding me. That was a great fight. Mah boy got diced like crazy they had tons of sequences in the fight and didn't mess up the geometry and lose place of their subjects. It showed his baby arms incinerate before he steps it up. Plenty of wide, medium and closeups.
Mosquito girl is the bar if anything. Even side fights like Golden Ball and the Moustache were good or at least dramatic. Season 1 was fun.
Genos was all fucked up at the end of episode 1 and I was confused because they never even established tension in the fight. It was just a mess. That took away from him harvesting the parts for the new design at the end too.
Jack Turner
Oh boy did I. And it was a hasty tensionless aside to king and saitama that undercut the reveal at the end of the episode with Genos taking a note from Metal Knight seeking power.
Of course I fucking watched it
Aaron Bell
>the long dream

Jaxson Morris
All monsters will be CG at this rate
Joseph Rivera
Gag timing and gag are two different things. Get out of here with your reddit spacing

I'm sure some of them will given G4 was for like all his scenes. I just hope they don't make full CGI people that would be awful
Robert Murphy
No one is looking forward to episode 2, new manga chapter will be dope, though.
Jace Flores
Genos vs. Mosquito girl was MILES better than the pathetic mess in last episode. The difference is night and day. What seems to be clear is that every fight will be pathetic as hell.
Anthony Robinson
It's either CG or they do what they've done for Genos and draw them in so much detail they can't afford to animate them, instead using minimal movements and covering anything to difficult to animate with camera cuts

Jose Evans

Most of them are inconsequential, the A class fight was a complete and utter waste of time, literally jobbers vs jobbers.
John Johnson
It really wasn't, the point of the fighting arc was to introduce the monster association and they used parts of 16 entire fucking chapters to do it
Joseph Martin
so based on the opening they'll adapt until the beginning of MA?
Juan Rivera
It will 100% end with the EC serious punch.
William Carter
>Most of them are inconsequential
According to you and your braindead logic that you know exactly what's going to happen

That was the majority of the webcomic chapters until we actually got to see the Dragons. Only this time we have character interactions. Unless you consider actual setup a waste of time

Are you legit retarded or shitposting for the sake of shitposting? I'd wager it's both.

Go be butthurt somewhere else garoufag. The original post didn't even say it was the best feat, just congratulating glasses for punching a dragon-level threat in the face. That's how sensitive your asshole is, the mere thought that someone could enjoy that moment and you go into full damage control.
Josiah Nelson
Because you're autistic and too much of a faggot to admit you're wrong about the shitty fighting arc
Matthew Rogers
Figured you are a retard shitposting.
Go pretend Glasses had the most noteworthy punch evah on fanfiction.net. Garou literally ignored him at that moment, his punch itself did literally nothing and Garou literally used his 4 eyed ass as a punching bag.
