| My worries have been slightly relieved; the animation of this episode was quite the improvement over the previous few—and I think the reviews are a reflection of that. The post-credits scene was hilarious. I can't wait to see the Martial Arts Tournament next week! |
| I'm happy to see the animation quality has made a very noticeable improvement over the first two episodes. Garo's fight against Tank-Top Master didn't have the best sound quality, but it had plenty of detailed facial expressions and fluid animation that was really satisfying. I'm just hoping that the production team can now maintain this quality as much as they can. It's asking a lot, but in order to quite down some of the overreacting critics, it's really needed. =) The only main criticism I have is the colour palette, which in some scenes, can be iffy, but it's mostly okay in most scenes. Genos' design stills needs some improving, though. What this episode also did well is with the comedy, with Saitama giving out Banana's to Mumen Rider, Tank-Top Master and Charanko where they can't reach for it. Then when Saitama encountered Garo and got chopped suddenly, he gave one back to Garo and knocked him out in one hit. XD Saitama with that wig just looks hilarious, but I'm looking forward to seeing the other contestants of this martial-arts tournament that he'll be going up against, though. =) |
| Garo seems to be pretty op, but you don't mess with Saitama. |
| I just hope we get to see Tatsumaki any time soon. |
| yo this episode was good as fuck. production stepped up big time! the pacing feels fast as hell but I don't really mind. Garo vs Tank top was sick and the ending where Saitama met Garo was great too. Really hoping that the quality remains this level. |
| Thats was very good episode. Better in my opinion than early episodes of season 1 I will say it again, I don't care that much about animation. Why people who complain about animation in every thread still watching it !! Just drop it if the only thing you care is animation. |

| Finally there are more faces of Saitama from season 1.Like that.Still the scene between Saitama and Garou was so hilarious!Nice episode.They are doing better. |
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
| The outro doesn't fit the anime tbh.Ok they kept the hype with the intro at least,but the outro doesn't fit this kind of action anime. |

GoldenDevilGamer said: Even in the remake manga (the source for this adaptation), they still haven't fought yet. omfg that sucks! I neeeed to see them fight each other for reals! |
 |
| tbh, other than the art and animation quality, OPM still has the same vibe. Only Genos' design is inconsistent and off. Yes, animation is nowhere near the the level of season 1 but really, season 1 was already on a level which was close to unrivaled. I guess we're getting to the tournament arc already? I remember reading a few chapters in the middle of this arc in the manga, and it was pretty good. Am looking forward to the next episode. |
| Certainly looks better then previous episode, hope they gonna keep up, but I feel like pace is extremly quick. Or manga with it's all extra content compared to webcomics went kinda slow, now they turn how many pages and chapters in one episode? Episode three and next one world is gonna be upside down. |

| Well that was a bit underwhelming, some parts were used just as a mention to obv save some time. Animation is decent, but in some moments took even more hits. Garou was destroyed =/ |
 |
| Definitely the best episode of this season so far, much better than the second episode IMO. Garou was a total savage in all the fights and I loved it when Saitama KO'd him with a single chop at the end of the episode. |
| "There's no such thing as a painless lesson, they just don't exist. Sacrifices are necessary. You can't gain anything without losing something first. Although if you can endure that pain and walk away from it, you'll find that you now have a heart strong enough to overcome any obstacle. Yeah... a heart made full-metal." ~Edward Elric |
| animation wise not good but this episode was funny. |
| wait people still bitching about the animation after that garou vs TTM? i swear people are simply spitting nonsense they don't even know shit about. |
 |
| There are enough reasons to shit on OPM but the episode this time was overall enjoyable with a satisfying plus funny after credit scene. |
| I have the impression that Garou isn't so overpower as I thought... despite the fact that he defeated everyone, he actually struggle a little with those rank S... seems like a bunch of rank S together would be able to defeat him, XD ... (wonder if he will grown stronger) anyway, looking foward to that tournament |
| I found the first season to be pretty meh~ but I am really enjoying this now. |
| Very good episode. 5/5 Garou is awesome. |
| Not that great episode, but Garo is more interesting than I thought. I expected him to be annoying OP villain, so seeing him getting hurt and putting some effort during fight is nice. I hope Saitama gets more attention in future. His scenes are always the best. |
| This episode is definitely a step up over the last couple. Still not season 1 quality, but definitely enjoyable. |
| a lot of people seem to forget that not every episode of OPM 1 had high tier animation every minute, hell even 5 minutes, people even then complained about the animation some episodes so im not even mad that retards complain about the animation when its actually decent to good(try being a Gintama fan watching the later seasons, morons) inb4 "we deserve amazing animation every second!!!111, we must not be content with decent to good animation!!!!111" while having an anime like Gundou Musashi in terms of animation as their favorite smh |
| ...I can't get used to Genos looking so fugly. otherwise the episode was okay. |

| for a moment i was ahh mumen rider D: noo. I thought he was a goner, man that was pretty brutal. It brought back the chillin scary scene of negan for me ugh. >_< |
coming soon |
| Pretty nice, also Garou's theme is awesome |
| just because I’ve gotten weaker, doesn’t mean that you got stronger, does it? |
| I have a question. Can anyone who read the manga tell me when more or less Puri Puri Prisoner is expected to appear in this Season? :) Like in which episode (based on the current pacing compared to manga's chapters). |
| Kinda dissapointed a new studio has taken the charge on this one. I prefered when saitama's head was actually in somewhat decent round shape and not taller.. Somewhat dissapointed in the new season, im not sure why.. Maybe different animations.. Couldnt tell much difference first episode but.. Now im kinda bummed about this new beginning. Had high hopes for it to. |
| Somehow not depressed. |
| RIP, Tank Top crew. I didn't know there were so many of them lmao. It's amazing how this show still manages to be entertaining af even with such average animation. I like it. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| honestly my only issue with this series is that they spend way too much time on side characters.. |
| Everything negative from the last 2 episodes still stands in this ep, exception being tank-top entourage vs Garo fight, which had the better animation till now. Garo vs Golden and Stache was meh... At least Garo design is exactly like in the manga unlike Genos lol As I thought they decided to give Garo blue rays for the hands movement, what stupid decision, especially when we already seen in season 1 that Silverfang doesn't have that when using his martial arts... and in this season to make it worse they will still add to Silverfang hands green rays, I bet. Overall I liked this episode, I couldn't dislike it when the Garo x Saitama 1º meeting was well adapted. |
| Just here for the "bad animation, JC staff is a bad studio." comments. |
 |
| Well that was a fast episode! But I enjoyed it nonetheless. Can't wait to see Saitama in a martial arts tournament. |
