One Punch Man Season 3 has dropped another teaser, but the reaction is split. Although the first season became an instant classic, quality dropped in the second, and fans are hoping for a return to form.
So far,One Punch Man Season 3has given us a trailer and some character visuals. Genos, Saitama’s cyborg apprentice, is the subject of the latest, with a simple image that has him standing in front of a blue background.
Although simple, the picture is proving enough inspire some relief, since fans can now see that some of the animation has changed. In particular for Genos, it’s an update on the gradient coloring that really wasn’t enjoyed by the audience.
“The awful metal texture is gone,” says aTwitter/X user. “Genos looks badass in this!”anothersays.
The chorus is optimistic, but also wary. We’ve been waiting a number of years at this point, and the production company is still JC Staff. “It looks great. That metallic gradient is gone thank f**k. Hopefully they stick with this,” acommenteron Reddit states.
“It looks identical to the Season 1 design,” says another Redditor. One user points out that overwork was definitely an issue with One Punch Man Season 2, since the Director of Photography had three ongoing projects at one point.
