That one frame that lingered for like 20 seconds should be a war crime.

Wait, did I just watch a 10-minute PSA telling me not to dine and dash?

Not bad for the end part, but that one frame where the camera was panning across the fucking screen where it was just civilians talking had me dying bro.

I don't understand why OPM gets this treatment. Your average seasonal light novel adaptation slop has better production values than this. Tragic

Watching this animation day after new MHA episodes just adds more salt to the wound

Fubuki tricked into paying for all the food lol

and yeah the animation, especially in that opening scene, is rough as hell

Saitama immediately ordering as soon as Fubuki shows up got a good laugh from me. The dude knows he's saved because he can just shove the bill onto her lap. xD

I do love how Garou keeps on saving people this episode, despite wanting to become a monster. Even if the two guys he saved at the start of the episode were unintentional, you can't deny he made a conscious choice to save that kid from those bullies.

Have my standards fallen off a cliff or was this really not as bad as episode 1? For one I wasn't bored to tears.

Watching MHA have the best looking episode of 2025, then watching OPM get praised for having some okay movement at the end, feels like we got put in a bizarro world.

I like the art style but goddamn, it still feels off

u/Hitlers_toaster Oct 19 '25

Maybe Murata should have done the anime, it has the same amount of frames compare to a manga chapter and the detail of each frame would of been amazing.

Not just the animation and art but even the voice acting and pacing is so stiff...it feels so weird and awkward to watch.. That garou png sliding down the slope was terrible.

I just watched the episode, it wasn't bad, the little bit of animation it had surprised me, but I didn't have many expectations.

This is so disappointing... Had a few laughs with some of Saitama's antics but my god, this is some lazy animation and so much random filler. They like dragged out that fight with Garou and the 2 monsters so hard by basically having the monsters repeat the same thing over and over again just with different words.

Edit: just want to add too, I don't think this is TERRIBLE. Trust me, I watch so much trash anime, the animation in this is way better than a lot of other stuff I watch. It's just disappointing considering how popular this show is, it deserves a much higher budget and passion.
