Available on:VIZ, Hulu Animation production: J.C. Staff Director: Chikara Sakurai One-Punch Man (Season 2)


The comic-heroic saga of Saitama, a self-proclaimed "hero for fun" who possesses the absurd superhuman ability to defeat any adversary with one punch, was an near-instant hit among anime aficionados for its outlandish animation, breathtaking fight scenes, and unflappable deadpan humor. Ever since the first season of One-Punch Man premiered and blew everyone's face off in 2015, fans have been eagerly anticipating the next, and after a four year wait, it's finally here. Fans and critics of the first season were curious as to how the switch between production studios and staff from Madhouse, who chose instead to produce this year's Boogiepop and Others, and J.C. Staff would affect the overall quality of the show's animation. To be sure, the absence of director Shingo Natsume and the deft talents of animators as Sejoon Kim and the legendary Yutaka Nakamura are certainly missed here, but considering the season's tortured production and limitations, J.C. Staff still manage to deliver a serviceable follow-up that strives for the over-the-top bombast and comedy of the first season and misses by just a hair. Still, more One-Punch Man is still more One-Punch Man, and if you're a fan of the series, it's certainly worth riding out this season if only to bathe in its flashes of awesome spectacle.
