After being duped by a fake before a few months ago [Thinking it was this season]; apparently it's confirmed to be happening now.

We don't know when it's going to be airing yet; but the cast and staff are being announced at an event on the 21st/22nd March; along with a promotional video.

So; yeah; thought I'd post the news here since I know there are other people here who follow OPM.

Well, I'm happy that it'll be made into an anime and all, but I feel that it's a tad too soon at the moment. Especially since it's to animate "Murata's OPM", which hasn't been going all that long really and he has a lot to catch up to the original webcomic.
Another thing that bothers me is how most people will see OPM as "Murata Yuusuke's manga", and even though it mentions ONE as the original author, he just doesn't get enough credit in my opinion. Yeah sure, Murata's the one who popularize it when he redrew the comics, and ONE probably doesn't have anything against it, but it just doesn't sit well to me.
Perhaps if they start it by mentioning ONE first, then maybe that'll make it sound better. But that's just preference, really.

I agree it's quite early for an adaptation for this, but I guess an adaptation for it was inevitable regardless.

Hope it's done justice.

Don't you know? Early adaptations are all the range these days! Everything is adapted long before it would finish before the anime is forced to stop or filler. Unless it's JJBA. And even that might catch up.

I'm expecting we'll go up to the end of the Boros arc. Maybe. Then it'll stop because of content until maybe the following year. Not to mention to test the popularity of the thing.

Yep, this seemed to happen a lot recently. I'm really not a fan of this format of "Hey, buy dem DVDs if you want to see the rest!", but it's Onepunch-man so I'm okay with that.

It better recieves the treatment it deserves though.

I'm trying my hardest not to watch it yet. Send help maybe.

From what i've heard, it's only a partial sub, so...Better off waiting for the fully subbed episode when the fall season actually starts.

Mew seeker · « **Reply #11 on:** September 07, 2015, 11:54:55 PM »

Anime is coming out in a month, early october. I want to see it soon. ^^
I hope it will be on Crunchyroll or something like that. XD
Also, 3rd PV is out, showing a list of S rank heroes.

The first episode is amusing, and is reasonably accurate to the comics, with some animation hijnks here and there. I am pleased.

Spotty Len · « **Reply #13 on:** October 07, 2015, 03:34:08 PM »

JAM Project was a perfect choice for the Opening.

I never read the manga, but this show is glorious

What does it mean, to be the strongest?

Well, you don't see many animes where there's a death flag as simple as meeting MC with wrong words.

...Wait.

A hero is someone who just happens to be honestly passing by.

Thank you, Studio Madhouse. Thank you.

Good thing the manga isn't over.

Wish they adapted it up until Hero Killer Arc.

But they really went all out in the last episode. The last fight is beautifully animated from start to finish. It even surpassed Unlimited Blade Work's episode 23 despite One Punch Man having slightly lower budget.

Ruka · « **Reply #25 on:** December 21, 2015, 12:04:25 PM »

I don't know about you guys, but I felt a little empty inside despite the whole thing being awesome in general. Maybe it was Saitama nonchalantly saying "Serious Strike" in his usual calm and bored tone. It was a lot of power, but at the same time, you don't really feel that power other than by seeing it.

redxmaverick · « **Reply #26 on:** December 23, 2015, 04:19:31 PM »

I finished the anime but it left me feeling underwhelmed. I'm feeling like Saitama where I'm disappointed when I destroy everything in one punch. I'm waiting for when he faces a worthy adversary. I want to see Saitama bleed. In the 12 eps, the scene I enjoyed most was Saitama training with Genos.

Drake · « **Reply #27 on:** December 24, 2015, 06:04:27 AM »

And then you get the inevitable consequence (or antecedence) of the planet being destroyed. The show has never really been about anteing up since the whole premise is that you can't ante up enough and instead the meat is on everything that surrounds the actual fights. If Saitama fought someone evenly matched it would undermine the series and turn it into exactly what it's parodying.

I'm just wondering, but has there been an announcement of a 2nd season for One Punch Man?

From what I've heard, One Punch Man will be continued in the form of OVA.
My info may not be accurate though.
