They had german voice actors for that one preview, but the actual VN and anime are using japanese voices, unfortunately. Well, sorta unfortunately, since Yukarin is voicing someone, and thats always good.

Would it really make sense for them to only hire voice actors for a preview and don't use them ever after?

Man I'm still not getting over how hard green haired loli carried this episode.
I kind of get the hate Yuuki Aoi gets in general and all, but when she's doing that Komachi voice she's so damn good. Too sad that I can't think of anything else besides OPM and Komachi being like this.

Don't think she'd make top10 VA for me in general... but when I get that rare treat (or who knows, maybe it's more common and I just don't watch the right things) she's easily top5 or even top3 for me.

I don't get why so many people like One Punch Man. It's not funny, the story's incredibly generic, and it's beyond boring. It's a 3/10 at best

Humour is a very strange thing. It's very hit or miss and small little changes can change ones enjoyment from great to not bearable. For example, Humanity has declined is the greatest comedy I have ever watched for me personally because it hits my taste of humour to 100 %. It's a clever mix of random nonsense, sarcastic/cynic remarks and satire with lots of picks on human society, philosophy, the anime industry etc. Yet, while I think it's absolutely amazing, I only recommend it with caution because I know it hits a very specific sort of taste. Recently, after a lot of thought, I recommended it to a friend who I watch anime with regularly. We share the same taste for random nonsense, as in we find the same nonsense funny and the same nonsense unfunny, if that makes sense. He watched some of it but he doesn't really pick up on any of the society related critic and because of that the show is only "ok" for him.

For me, OPM is a great parody of the super hero/battle shounen "genre" that offers a lot of dry humour and nonsense (vague discription), making fun of those shows, while also managing to do the action incredibly well.
It's definitely not a 3/10 but I can understand why people wouldn't like it. To be honest, I'm quite surprised it took of the way it did. I didn't expect so many people to like this kind of stuff.

Idk, but they aren't using German voice actors for the actual series.

Every other shonen ever will be wasting time introducing bigger and badder villains and have long, generic arcs as the heroes try to figure out how to win.

OPM eschews the fake drama of "OMG will the good guys win?!" with "Saitama will kill everyone, so let's make all the in-between as entertaining as possible".

For me the OPM hype is just seeing the manga being animated and animated well. I think the kind of gag comedy OPM has is far more suited to manga.

Personally I'm just a sucker for OP characters (one true tatsuya season 2 when).

OPM is one of the few shows that's watchable this season.

It's also really well animated.

Then just drop it. Why watch something you find unbearable? Are you a masochist?

If you think something is worth shitting on, then one should probably watch the whole thing so you can shit on it properly. So its not uncommon for people to watch what they don't like.

Not sure why you guys are surprised. Family has been one of the core themes since the first episode and you shouldn't expect it to change. Compared to the first season, you don't have Yu crying for Mika and vice-versa every episode lol but you'll get those moments as you should imo.

Also, seraph wasn't really bad either unless you hated their idea of vampires. Likeable cast, fights aren't too badly animated and even though not really apparent, there's a small mystery that's reeled its head towards the end of season 1 and getting more spotlight in season 2 now.


Eh? The cast was horrible aside from Shinoa and the animation was utterly terrible.

What's wrong with the cast? Each person has his own reason for fighting and I think they have developed well overtime into the team they are now. Also, I don't think the animation is anywhere near as terrible as you say it is. Anyways, to each his own. I look forward to each new episode every week and liking the story so far. + Show Spoiler [latest episode] +
Damn, Mika goes on a rampage to get to Yu lol.



+ Show Spoiler +
Yuu and the red haired guy are imature brats that don't listen at all, think they are the best and yell at everyone all the time. Can they talk in a normal tone as well? I don't know. Bowguy is the typical weak guy that has nothing to offer but he does sooo much for the team spirit...only that, in this case, he doesn't. He is just there for the yelling-brothers to have someone to fight over all the time and protect to show how awesome they are. Blondie girl thinks she is superior to everyone, which isn't entirely false but her attitude clashes to much with Yuu's. Then you have the entire vampire cast that is apparently very strong and intelligent. Yet they act dumb as fuck, need helicopters to fly over a wall because they forgot that they can fly on their own, and let their oponents live on multiple occasions.

As for the animation: I won't go through the episodes again to find examples but I posted some of them back then when the show was airing. You basically have scenes where characters are floating through the air, devoid of any sense of physics or anatomy of body movements. Then you have entire fights "animated" as still frames that are being shaken. I felt like watching a manga with voices in color at times.

+ Show Spoiler +
Are you watching season 2 now or are you basing all this on season 1? They are nowhere near as immature as you say they are though yes, Yuu is still impulsive and holds the idea of family close to his heart. His actions based on that were evident in the last episode and in how far he was willing to take things.

I disagree, I think Yoichi has plenty to offer. In a way, he acts like the glue in the group trying to get everyone to get along especially in season 1 (not as many issues in season 2). I also don't see what wrong with him being weak although again, he's been shown to be even more capable than Yuu and red haired guy at times especially with his demon. You'll understand what I mean if you watch season 2.

Sorry but I think you're just nitpicking at this point. First, so what if her attitude clashes with Yuu? Do you want characters that get along off the bat? I'd rather they overcome their differences and become close friends, like a family through their experiences and time spent together. Also the cast has changed quite a bit from season one and they all appreciate each other's company and are willing to die for each other so your last point is moot.

As for the vampires, I don't remember but when were we shown that they can fly over walls? You mean jumping? Again, nitpicking. Imagine if in every show, the two sides clashed and only one side survived and the anime ended. Pretty much every single fighting anime I've seen has survivors from both sides and they go on to fight again. You think they act dumb because they let them get away? It happens, enemy is prepared and escapes etc... I dunno, I don't think the anime is anywhere as bad or terrible as you say because I'm pretty sure I would've dropped it by now but I don't think it's something worth arguing over ^^

Indeed. Calvary battles have been great all around especially the latest one. + Show Spoiler +
Anyone else like Alice's odd character? lol.
Now I'm waiting for Gakusen to catch up and I think we're in for a treat in the next episode or two


Early on they kinda hinted at him having a dark side but so far he has just been good. Dunno if Alice's backstory and if she has some kind of hidden motives will come out though,

+ Show Spoiler +
I was actually thinking about that and thought it'd be funny if he ends up being some assassin after Ikki lol. After all, he's built everyone's trust and would be the one that would be least suspected of being one at this point. I don't know what his dark side is but hope we get some more information on that

yeah... and about the above and Tenshinhan, he might not been on par with Cell but he was strong enough to shoot a couple blasts at him that were strong enough to hold him back giving time for android 18 to escape. Being able to hold back Cell is probably already way above Frieza seing how SSJ Goku got trashed by Cell before training, and Frieza got trashed by SSJ Goku no problems whatsoever. 18 should just be able to trash them all but she's busy looking after kids.

Piccolo in particular doesn't seem like the kind of guy who'd just forget everything about fighting. Not like his fusions wear off either.

But like mentioned, this should be the equivalent of Satan vs Cell when Satan couldn't even physically walk up to him. Yeah Gohan became a nerd and is all weak compared to Buu-Saga but come one, there's no way he's now weak enough to get killed by this guy or even Frieza.

Master Roshi is fighting alongside them for crying out long. Why not bring Oolong out as well.

I haven't watched the latest episode but + Show Spoiler +
seeing the gang cower in fear when Gohan should be able to whip freeza in his sleep is TERRIBLE lol. Like, seriously? Heck, even if frieza is stronger and maybe comparable to a super saiyan or so now so he's a worthy enough fighter but why the hell are you worried about the rest of the fighters? It's a bit disappointing that they are making them so weak just to make the fights close. btw, keep in mind that they do say that frieza has trained for 4 months straight so there is always the chance that he's much stronger than before but still.
