ONE PUNCH MAN SEASON 3 ANIMATION REVEALED

[@mythicvortex2456]

It's definitely going to air either near the end of the year or next year entirely. Judging from what I've seen in the Manga version on the next arc, the staff is going to have a field day dealing with the amount of artistic details that's ahead of them. I don't care if this takes two years to complete, I just hope they don't rush the animation. TAKE YOUR TIME.

[@matthewrosette2170]

you right. i’ve been impatient and after seeing this animation i think they should take more time on it bc the fights that are coming up are literally crazy and the choreography rn isn’t as live to me. they can definitely do better than that

Ok but why does the studio deserve slack when they are the ones who mistreat the animators and get paid for it? Surely justice for the animators would be not to watch it at all?

[@mindandbody7971]

I think the lighting, color choices and and backgrounds in the scene are a nice change of mood. The easiest part of animation is sitting down and watching someone else's completed animated show. Imagine demanding producers on one end and demanding fans on the other end and being the art team in the middle. Most people can't handle the pressure of just waking up at 6am to get ready for school or work.

[@markomaksimovic7678]

I'm hopeful but one thing to note here is that this is a pv which means it was specifically animated for this trailer. The same scene in the actual show will probably look different. This was animated by Kenichiro Aoki - the man who carried S2 on his back. The problem is just like in season 2 he can't possibly animate all of the fights himself, there's just too many of them. So the question is will they be able to get some freelancers like Madhouse did in S1 or will it be a repeat of S2 with Kenichiro Aoki only occasionally showing up for the hype scenes.

[@houseontherock8345]

They should hired red haired guy lol

[@Quintessenza]

They have way more staff working at JC and on OPM now. The team is much larger as in the past 5 years JC has upgraded and brought in a lot of new talent. It’s great that the previous animator who carried season 2 is here but he’s also joined by a lot more animators this time around so likely he’s collaborating with his team well ahead of schedule to get things going.

[@OrRaino]

Imo Kenichiro is decent and that's the Best JC staff could offer, now imagine everything after this is only below Kenichiro's level

[@fiercegameryt9173]

Chikashi kubota is also on the team

[@iTechGamingLOL]

Honestly I would prefer if they make garo's final monsterfication into cosmic garou until the end of his fight vs Saitama into a movie. We've seen a lot of animes doing it recently and then release those parts into the series. it is a fight worth the time and budget to do so, if anything it might be one of the best anime fights that deserves that type of treatment.

[@Lone_Star86]

A movie would be amazing as long as its not a live action.

[@Aoun-Hussain]

Just don't give it to JC Staff, I know they are also just as hardworking as the other studios. But they are not know for there fighting animations. And doing justice to the One punch man Manga would be no easy task for even studios like ufotable & mappa.

[@bman2217]

2 possibilities that I can think of: 1. this is the best they have to offer, so it will get worse as the season goes on. 2. This is an unimportant fight, which means the more important ones will be much better. I’ve got my money on 2.

[@scottvgamer1163]

Two things people need to note: 1. Season 2 was not given enough time, which was the main reason it turned out the way it did. We shouldn’t expect season 1 quality ever again, but we can hope that given we don’t have a release date yet and how long the wait has been already (even if this hasn’t been in production the WHOLE time) that season 3 will be an improvement over the last. 2. Even if this trailer is pre-animated (been confirmed), that doesn’t necessarily mean anything. Bleach TYBW used and touched up scenes from the pre-animated trailer in the final version.

[@Trolololol123]

We don't even know if it's true or not. Since it was stated privately

[@turquoisemoon3654]

We all know the deal with JC Staff- with "guys" hating it for being identified with BL and related stuff- so their homophobe radar was on high and they started complaining about all those tiny details they only bother with. I know the attitude has always been like that with the slightest association with BL- even if it's just the animation studio. JC Staff has done an excellent job with other anime- better quality and OST than other animation studios in many aspects- but people tend to gloss over that or they just don't know enough about JC Staff at all and simply randomly judge them based on some of their minor projects in the past. Mapa is an amazing studio- but I think people should stop stereotyping studios and nitpicking on details that don't even affect the narrative and the entertainment value of the animation. JC Staff can do just as well... and yeah complainers will always complain until the animators overwork themselves and THEN they get to complain about that too. Is appreciating hard work so hard for everyone?

[@atarashi8513]

The problem comes when people who reads manga compare the animation not with season 1 but with the manga panels, and yeah I read the manga so even if I try I would always think season 2 was "bad" even tho I really enjoyed episodes 3,8,11 and 12!

[@turquoisemoon3654]

@@youtube_clips_official They don't realize that the manga and the anime CAN'T be exactly the same because the nature of the medium is not only entirely different visually in many TECHNICAL aspects but also- the marketing makes it essential that the manga and the anime be different- isn't that the selling point of the manga to begin with? If you have the anime portraying the story even BETTER than the manga, you'll have the manga losing its original "charm" and audiences saying "I'm just gonna wait til the story is adapted into anime... because it's gonna be better.
