About ten years ago, One-Punch Man was one of the most famous and popular shonen series. Although the series is still popular, it is fully carried by the manga at this point. One-Punch Man Season 1 is what shot him to fame with a great adaptation, but since then the success hasn't been repeated. in 2019 One-Punch Man Season 2 has officially dropped, and while it had its moments, it was a huge disappointment compared to the first season of the series. One-Punch Man Season 2 was a huge downgrade, and while it was certainly sad, fans had some hope the series would return with One-Punch Man Season 3.
Now with One-Punch Man season 3 and 5 episodes airing, many fans have already given up. The quality is still terrible, if not worse, and all things considered, it seems the end for One-Punch Man anime fans.
One-Punch Man Season 3 is a disaster
One-Punch Man is a series that only became famous in 2015 after the release of the first anime season. One-Punch Man Season 1 stood out from the crowd with its incredible animation and direction. It was a product of passion and brought together the best talent in the industry to deliver a love letter to anime fans around the world. primarily One-Punch Man Season 1 was a well-produced anime.
But then the downfall began. One-Punch Man has never reached the heights fans have become accustomed to since then, all because of the disappointing adaptations it has received since then.
One-Punch Man season 2 was the first major disappointmentand fans could see a reduction in quality. This was largely due to a change of studio, the project being handled horribly by the distributor, and the studio being forced to deliver the finished product on time, forcing the animators to work at an unimaginable pace.
One-Punch Man Season 2 happened 6 years ago. Fans believed that the series would continue with One-Punch Man Season 3, especially after all these years. The truth is like this One-Punch Man Season 3 is even worse than the second season. The quality of the art, animation, and direction is below par, especially compared to other series that came out this year, such as Solo Leveling Season 2 or My Hero Academia Season 8.
While some fans had high hopes, it was to be expected. One-Punch Man Season 3 had major red flags for a while. For example, the season only had a pre-animated trailer, which meant that work on it was far from complete, despite the release date approaching. Many animators and people working on the season also expressed their troubles online. The main reason for this downfall is forcing the staff to deliver something they cannot devote the proper time to.
The One-Punch Man series will never recover after two failed seasons
One-Punch Man season 3 was a huge chance for the franchise to correct the failures of season 2 and recover. However, with two failed seasons and many fans dropping the anime, it's hard to see the series making a comeback.
Yet, One-Punch Man Season 3 was full of subpar animations, static shots, mistakes due to rushed productionbad post production and the list goes on. Naturally, fans are fed up with the treatment of the franchise. It is clear that the season was rushed and that the production committee did not have the best interests of the fans or the staff working on it in mind. Both the team that worked on it and the fans deserved better.
Fans of the series will have to keep up with the manga instead, which features some of the most detailed and incredible art seen in Shonen Manga.
