the japanese portal Myjitsu shared an article revealing that fans of the anime adaptation of the franchise of One Punch Man they are more than concerned regarding the production of the third season, given the drop in quality that the series experienced with its second season.
«The popular manga “One Punch Man”, serialized on the Tonari no Young Jump service, has decided to resume its anime adaptation with a third season. This should be good news for fans, but for some reason a number of people have raised concerns. “One Punch Man” has aired as TV animation for two seasons so far, and with this announcement it has been decided that a third season will be produced. This is the first new work in regarding three years, and a visual teaser of Chikashi Kubota, who designed the characters in previous seasons, has also been revealed on the official Twitter page.».
«There are no details yet, but the visual teaser suggests that the story will likely revolve mainly around the “Garou Arc.” Being one of the most popular arches in the work, it has generated a huge national and international response. However, some are concerned regarding the quality of this third season. This is because the second season of the anime, which aired in 2019, was not well received by many viewers.».
«Looking back, the first season, which aired in 2015, was produced by Madhouse and was so well received that it was called “animated by gods”. However, the production studio was replaced by JCSTAFF from the second season, and a decline in animation quality was noted.».
«That is why comments like: “Are they seriously going to make a sequel following the disaster that was the second season?“; “To be honest, I’m not very hopeful since the second season because the animation company changed and the animation became more decadent“; “I would love to see a third season, but the second one left me too disappointed. expectations are low“».
«This is not the only complaint from fans of the original manga. To begin with, there are big differences between ONE’s original version of “One Punch Man” and Yusuke Murata’s version published in Tonari no Young Jump. The “Garou Arc”, which will be performed in the third season, was especially notable for its “alteration of the original story”. The “Murata Version” modifications to the “Garou Arc” have not been entirely well received, and those insecurities carried over to the upcoming third season.».
«Related comments have surfaced such as: “I think Murata’s version will be a disaster adapted to anime“; “What is going to be done with the second half of the anime regarding the Garou arc? I personally would like the ONE version to be adapted“. To begin with, around the time of the anime’s second season, there were original developments, such as the “Super Fight” martial arts tournament depicted in Murata’s version, which was not very popular with viewers. The possibility of further alterations to the original story wreaking havoc cannot be ruled out. Perhaps it is a situation of considerable pressure for the commissioned study, but it may be able to exceed expectations».
