So this whole trailer, I mean every single second of it is animated by Keniichiro Aoki himself. Yes one man. Aoki is a beast when it comes to action animation, he single handedly carried s2, nearly animated on every single episode. Animated all the highlight fights . So him carrying whole OPM s3 is highly possible. Having no director credit for even pre-animated trailer is concerning. It means they're not even into deep in production, possibly forced by animation producer to give something to fans who have been demanding something from months. Frieren is nearing it's completion, Frieren's last episode isn't finished yet. They could get some of them to join s3. If it's releasing in late 2025, I think we'll have something amazing from the staff. It's going to a mess anything less than that. Since the directors name is not yet revealed, it's fair to say that s2 director won't be returning. The Character designers however are amazing they managed to rope in Ryosuke Shirokawa, who's a KyoAni regular and does highly detailed character designs, the other being Chikashi Kubota who's the definition of "VETERAN". As for how I know the trailer is pre-animated, someone confirmed privately with Aoki on X. ALSO SUPPORT THE STAFF AND STUDIO. No amount of doom posting will get you your S1 nor Mappa/Bones/Ufotable. S2 had young Chris, Juilian Bentley, Daniel Baron and Rioo who were very inexperienced back in 2019. Now all of them are different kind of beasts. If we get even some of them to atleast help Aoki with action animation, we're guaranteed to have a good product.

If you want to know about how much Aoki dedicated himself to s2, watch this video. He's the real S-class hero of One-punch Man.

Also if you have twitter, please go show him some love. That might motivate him to work even harder.

Please, I beg you do not insult him or the studio on his posts. Japanese animators take everything seriously.

Nice to see somebody defending them for a change. I still stand by my original opinion of the second season, but I won't deny it was good.

If there's one thing for sure, OPM is a "read the manga" story. Could live your entire life and still not get the anime to cover the thing, let alone if One will ever put an end to the narrative anytime soon.

I'm not defending s2. I'm asking people to support the staff for s3, instead of mindless hate.

lmao last time i watched a pre-animated trailer it was AoT Final season P1, you know how shit it was and it's from mappa, one of the most prominent studio rn, and AoT's animation never got better by much till the end

a pre-animated trailer from J.C Staff doesn't sound good at all

A pre-animated trailer isn't a bad thing when the staff themselves make it. It's a bad thing if they have to outsource the pre-animated trailer. In this care the staff for the trailer are participating in the anime itself. If you want to name a disappointed name a proper one least. While Attack on titan trailer was definitely misleading, the animation for the show itself wasn't that bad.It's better than most animes that supposedly have good animation. Hell's Paradise on the other hand is what I call cluster fu**. If you didn't know Chainsaw Man also had a pre-animated trailer.

@Anime_Skaddiel better than most anime? yes. similar quality as other mappa big shows? no.

having mappa taking on ur fav anime would make u have high expectations, everyone wants JJK or CSM treatment, while Jigokuraku was ass, still doesn't change the fact that AoT's Final Season is arguably a huge disappointment, Part 1 and 2 especially (arguably is the keyword here).

Regarding J.C Staff, they have number of upcoming shows on plate and i heard they don't usually rely on freelancers too much (i could be wrong) so in-house is the last hope here now if the in-house staffs expanded a lot since OPM S2, maybe they could nail it but like i said they have a number of upcoming shows.

Well the release date hasn't been announced. The trailer showcased what Aoki, Shirokawa and Kubota are capable of.

@ratliker63 no, not for opm s3
Season 4 p1 was bad and p2 average, most of them were cgi, and not a good cgi.
Just p3 was very good, that's because they had 2 years time for 2ep 1h.

CDs do CAD work most of the time. It's very normal. Anyway that Garo correction was by Kubota.

@Anime_Skaddiel Kubota didn't do anything in S2 except the very first KV of S2 and the same for S3 so far

Is it Kuroda? I was guessing Kubota because, he did similar corrections in Gurren Lagan

La tercera temporada será una mierda
este teaser es solo un adelanto que se tardaron en hacer en un año y medio
además de eso con un dibujo ya se compraron a la gente pero la realidad es que no es ni siquiera una buena animación
jc staff es un mierda que pinto colores con este teaser y la gente se la comió entera se comieron un dibujo de garou y una animación mediocre que asco
