Season 2 was fire. But in my opinion Season 1 was a little better.

So this has been bothering me for a while now, the anime isn’t even fresh in my mind anymore but I do remember that season 2 just hit different and not in a good way. I don’t really know why, but looking at the reviews people must think the same as me. Can someone please try to help me find a reason why this season just didn’t feel right

this season didn't have the same director and the same studio as the first season, i can only think that because i really don't know what happened here, but i felt the same

Season 1 was great, the plot and battles were cool and the comedy parts were awesome and really enjoyable. But in season 2 basically nothing happened; they introduced the new villain but he didn't do anything particular apart fighting with some rank A and S heroes and then escaping in the last episodes. And season 2 had lost also the comedy parts (they weren't funny anymore) which was one of the greates point in season 1. After waiting 3 years fans only got 12 eps and the plot was incomplete, if the studio could bring 24 eps and complete all that arc maybe season 2 could have been great.

This season felt like the story is building up to something, definitely Garou is the most interesting part of this season and I am excited to see where they go with him in the next season, but yeah it feels like just a build-up not much else

Garbage animation, Saitama who is the main character and the best thing about this anime had a screentime of less than 2 minutes in the entire fucking season.

Coz not only in anime, but also in manga, saitama aka 'one punch man' had less screentime.

since the anime isn’t really fresh in my mind anymore I kind of forgot that. But now you mention it, I remember that one episode they were fighting some kind of weird long snake monster and the only thing one punch man did was put an end to the monster after all the other heroes that fought had a cool battle and got beat up badly

I like far more S2 because Saitama is not the central attention, the story upgrade s or become more interesting, the opening is better, the art style is better....

No, the only thing that is better on S1 is the god level animation.

Season 2 of One Punch Man is a ok adaption of a fantastic manga. It has some pacing issues and the animation was here and there not the best. But all in all it was good. The problem is that the first season of One Punch Man were adapted phenomenal. The pacing, the sound effects and the god-like animation were just to good. Imai Arifumi, Nakamura and many other amazing freelancer just animated the fuck out of OPM. So the expectation for S2 was really high and it can't of course reach the hights of OPM S1.

Unfortunately this arc is not complete yet even in the manga and s2 was also so boring in the manga that the studio had to adapt 50 chapters to barely have anything (s1 was 38 chapters), but they made sure to stop right before the good parts so when s3 hits it'll be fire
But since the manga is going slow and irregular that might take a really long time

I liked it. Garou's introduction and Saitama/King dynamic are great. It's just inconsistent in terms of animation

I liked season 2. Nothing wrong with it to me. But my only problem was that it was so random. Season 1 ended with drive knight telling genos that metal knight is his enemy. Season 1 ends and then season 2 just happens out of nowhere. I wish they continued on right from the spot season 1 ended. We don’t see who metal knight is. We don’t see amai mask anymore. Instead, garou is introduced and things escalate really quickly from there. Also season 1 had a lot of comedy in it, but season 2 was missing that charm that season 1 had. To me the animation was great tbh. I didnt even know that the director and studio was changed.

The studio changed and the animation dropped in quality buy a significant amount.

Different studio. Considering that the first one was by madhouse (in what I think were it's prime years) it made the visual quality and overall production feel drastically different. I think this was the case for a lot of people

I think it’s probably because Santama wasn’t the focus of season 2 . I just finished watching it and although it was different I still thought it was good. I thought Garou was a cool villain and I liked the dynamic between Saitama and King

1st was better cause it was an introduction to characters and their powers and special characteristics....the secound season was not the same quality expected cause they tried to jump the plot several steps in mere 12 ep....as the saying goes "you cant have soft cream without the cream"

I remembered that it was bad too. I think it was probably because the people with the negative thing that the animation studio change,but it's not like as bad as my mind remember when it was on air. I watched with my dad months ago again ,saying to him that it was way worst than the first, and yes it's right the storyline it's not perfect,and it's not better than the first,but I really enjoyed it and it present Garou and Soryu. It's not the best,but neither the worst thing that could happen. Rewatching it really helped me to keep going with this series

For me personally, it was the animation and the pacing. I felt like season 2 was rushed. The fights also looked way better in the manga. Some complaints that I've heard from others is the fact that Saitama had a minor presence.
