| 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. |
 |
| lmao that ending part |
| 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 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. |
| 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 Demon level monster? there are no A-Class that can defeat a Demon level monster by themselves, maybe 3 A-Class can defeat a demon level monster but 1vs1? the A-Class has no chance. Now to be fair there are some Demon level monsters that are more sturdy and more dangerous than others so maybe Suiryu won't be able to defeat some 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'm 90% sure madhouse would have done a better job for this season of one punch! but whatever I take what I can get. |
| 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. |

| The mc or what i like to call him Banana eating asshole,...(it kind of suits him)... Hear the annoying cry for a hero and saves the day,,,,,,,,,, They talk for like 20 fucking minutes, I would like to see some action in a action anime!!,,,,, But lets talk!!,,,,,And where are the girls? Then he goes on how bored he is,, I kind of having the same feeling watching this load of donkey crap,, For some odd reason we have a short love scene between a hedgehog and a naked man,,,, No boring overall,, And i want my glorious waifu Tatsumaki to kick some ass,,,Until she comes back you will be stuck at 1/10,,,, Better your self to next week this is ridicules,,,  |
 |
| Delayed a whole week for... more filler. MAL lists an episode count now? Is that right? This season's only going to be 12 episodes long? And we've had like 3 canon episodes? What a waste. This could've been a great season. It started out so strong. :( |
| No ending this time. Was waiting for it but nevertheless, great episode as always, though it's unfortunate that we'll only have 12 eps |

Their recent output has had iffy quality (Boogiepop, for example) but I still can't imagine it would be any worse than this. |

| so like more satama action... it is becoming frustrating to see so litle saitama over the course of second season |

Even FMA: Brotherhood had its own retrospection scenes. It's still in pace with the manga. 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,,,  |

"almost no fighting" ALMOST,,,,,The amount is to small for my taste,,,,,,, and to ugly,They fight for 10 sec then talk for 15 min ,And i find that slow.going sluggish and tedious .It also fails to play its strongest cards , i like strong females ,,, My waifu shall have more screen time if the anime wants more then 1/10 from me ,,,  |

| I don't know the reason why people are calling this a good episode, but there's that. |
Klad said: I don't know the reason why people are calling this a good episode, but there's that. 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. |
| The episode was really dialogue filled which I don't really mind what I did mind though was animation especially saitamas face. |
| I like this episode,it s true that here isn't so much fight,humor is good though ! my grade for this episode is 4 |

Venturize said: revyHOLiC said: Who's VA that female hero association member at the end credit? Her voice is make me wet I want to know her name too 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! |

They're pricier so they're pretty choosy with their projects though. |
| 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? ------------------------------------ Itachi Uchiha |
| This season has no comedic timing whatsoever. The whole scene with Saitama talking to Suiryu had a ton of "sarcastic thing said -beat-" moments that had no impact because of the motivational music playing throughout uninterrupted |
 |
Nokogi said: Why MAL not listed her yet I wonderHmm, 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! |
| 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 |
