This was the first episode where I haven't been bored out of my mind. Not amazing, but certainly entertaining to watch for once.

So, it was a fast fight. As expected from the manga.

> Suiryu wanting to be Saitama's disciple? Nope.
> Saitama started to do some retrospection about his own status as a hero.
> Dat kick though. Epic.
> Ninja cooking that monster cell gourmet style. Hilarious.

By far the best episode of the series. The story finally is focusing Saitama, on his hilarious moments and about his depression. Also, it's a miracle the director didn't rushed his scenes like he's doing with basically everything else

this is the worst episode of season 2 OPM, the images are very ugly and cheap, seriously after 1 week's hiatus, we get bad image animations, and the music playing is always the same, do they have no intention of using new music, by the way I'm watching in 720p HD , and the quality is so bad, I can't believe that JC ruined the best series in this dirty way, damn I'm very angry and disappointed with this event.



the 1 week hitaus was only for the french open

Anyone notice that any time any sort of fighting happens (not just when Saitama is on the screen), the anime will cut away to a different frame and play audio of fighting happening. Besides the first few episodes, this has happened almost every time. *Big sigh*



it most likely happens in the manga , nothing to do with them

well I've seen a lot of animes from madhouse (HxH, parasite death parade and a lot more)
and they always done a great job, I don't see why it would be different with this anime.

This was...sorta adequate, I guess. Looks like the delay helped them not have anything feel blatantly unfinished (mainly cuz they skipped all the fight scenes, which is still pretty bad), even though Saitama just inexplicably changes faces and heads a lot of the time for no reason...again (cuz fuck if there isn't gonna be anything especially egregious in one of these episodes). They also had way too many fake-ends, though we're finally fucking done with that tournament arc and they're finally trying to explore the main thing Saitama struggles with again (they could have done a better job leading up to it tho, which is basically my issue with the writing as a whole: decent ideas marred by bad presentation and a lack of real progress or anything to have anything feel complete or earned). Maybe now we can get a genuinely decent or good episode of the show (visually or in terms of writing)!

That ending bit was pretty damn funny tho.

Okay episode. It was just as fast as the manga. I don't know why they already showed the credits while in the middle of a scene, but I guess that's the reason why there's no ED.

Still, it ends in 3 episodes. Too fast, but they are almost at the manga now.

Garou getting one KICKED this time, damn. Well, noticed that all S class heroes, Garo, monsters, all of them are nearly equal in strength, and none go above that level. Hopefully Sonic doesn't actually become a monster, I mean however strong he might get, he wouldn't be fighting Saitama on equal terms anymore, he wouldn't be a human whilst Saitama would be one.

Really enjoying the season so far. Btw was the dialogue of King with Saitama changed in the anime? For some reason I felt like Saitama disagreed with King at the end of the conversation in the manga but here he seems to agree with him. I think I'm remembering it wrong.

Another person who learns of Saitama's true strength then. Then asks to be his disciple.

Flat no.

I think Saitama has had enough of disciples at this point. Suiryu is definitely capable of becoming Class A on his own though once he gets over his fear and learns more about fighting monsters. So I wouldn't worry too much about him. He'll probably show up again as part of the unofficial Saitama Crew (which is currently King, Genos, Bang and Mumen Rider).

Pacing is too fast, music in many moments are random, I dont feel anything.
I dont have a problem with lack of animations during Bakuzan and Gouketsu moments because nothing really happen.

3/5

I think that Murata and One made a mistake. I dont mind killing Gouketsu off screen (even if it is controversial) but I have a problem that we didnt see full power of Gouketsu. Also Murata should show how EXACTLY Saitama is punching Bakuzan, not just smoke and dirt. Since episode 1 we didnt see any full punch from Saitama.

Imo first episode of this season should adapted special manga chapter "A New Wind Blows" because there was a solid punch from Saitama.

Suiryu is already S-Class material, he's probably at Puri-Puri Prisioner or Tank Top Master's level, I won't be surprised if Suiryu is actually stronger than them.

Didn't you see how Suiryu defeated a high Demon level monster? there are no A-Class that can defeat high Demon level monsters by themselves, maybe 3 A-Class can defeat a high demon level monster but 1vs1? the A-Class has no chance. The A-Class can only defeat the low Demon level monsters by themselves like the Crow guys which are the disciples of Gouketsu.

Now to be fair there are some high Demon level monsters that are more sturdy and more dangerous than others so maybe Suiryu won't be able to defeat some high Demon level monsters but he's still S-Class material.

Maybe but he'd be best off starting at Class A (or even Class B) while he learns about actually being a hero. Throwing someone who still has some big fears to conquer into Class S would be a mistake.

I updated my comment above, there are different classes of Demon level monsters, some are low class and others are high class.

But yeah, Suiryu needs to conquer his fears first before doing the Hero thing and should try starting from A-Class to defeat weak monsters to build his confidence again.

the most recent anime I've seen from madhouse is overlord season 3
and aside from a couple of annoying CGI scenes, I was satisfied.
I'm 90% sure madhouse would have done a better job for this season of one punch!

I liked the scene with King and the overall theme of Saitama not being satisfied with the way things are and not knowing what to do. Apart from that, I still don't care. Sonic was funny though, I hope he won't lose his humanity after all.

Jc staff really did the best they could to complete opm s2 in short spam of time,i agree that the animation is not as good as first season but its still good. Everyone knows that jc staff is one of the best animation studio with action animes like danmachi,shakugan no shana, a certain magical index, The Disastrous Life of Saiki K. So everyone please respect their work and be grateful that we get see one punch man season 2.i have to say i really enjoying watching saitama again in action and i also want say if jc staff get more time to animate one punch man iam sure they can give us a master piece.

Well it have been a lot of talking in every episode and i find it damn slow dull and fucking boring ,and the whole season have more then less been a big disappointment , And soon at the season end with almost no fighting i think they can talk a bit less and fight more

This is a action Anime that have less action then my cute girls doing cute things shows, and the animations my god its horrible ugly, i have never read the manga, i only compared what i previous seem and that is One Punch Man season 1,Just for fun we can also compared it to Love Live!,,, My cute girls pillow fights have better action then this,,,, Its a joke on every front ,,,,,, But i like Tatsumaki more of her and i might give this anime a decent grade in the end,,,

This is just my opinion and personal taste, not saying anyone needs to agree with it,,,

Probably because the episode has some interesting conversation going around here and there and less fights between characters no one cares about. In that regard the hating-brigade in the animation category can't hate as much as usually.

So yes, for OPM standards (and I mean the WHOLE series), that was one of the more interesting episodes in my opinion.
Just three episodes left, phew.

Hmm, the ending credits list "Risa Tsumugi" as "female executive". Hard to tell, since she seems to have not many prior roles, especially none of the "mature woman" kind (at least I couldn't find any), but yes, her voice sounds nice!

The dialogue was great in terms of character development this episode, especially with completing Suiryu's character development. I like that Saitama's depression was fleshed out a little more, although the manga captured the Gouketsu fight a little better. Overall an extremely good episode covering one of my favourite parts of the OPM manga.

We don't know what kind of people we truly are until the moment before our deaths.
As death comes to embrace you, you will realise what you are.
That's what death is, don't you think?

Finally, it got funny again. Saitama's lack of motivation is one of my favourite parts of this anime.

Oh god, Sonic is too cute. He actually cooked the cells into a posh looking meal. Hahaha. But, no matter how posh you are, you can't run away from diarrhoea.

Saitama rejected Suiryuu without a second thought. Haha
