Anime fans are passionate about what they love. While that usually manifests in a positive way, there are times when fans go too far. Season 3 A one-punch man It's been a roller coaster so far. While there are elements of the new season that fans love, many have criticized it heavily.
With the second season drawing ire from fans due to animation and pacing issues, season 3 director Shinpei Nagai was facing an uphill battle. The director has tried his best to interact with fans through social media, but it seems that the high expectations and prolonged disappointment with JCS staff's handling of season two has reached a boiling point for the director to quit social media.
The One-Punch Man Season 3 discourse is a mess
Whenever a new season is released for any popular series A one-punch manThere is bound to be a lot of discussion about it online. It's perfectly reasonable for fans to debate what they like and dislike about the season and share criticisms they have. But there have been points where the discussion surrounding OPM Season 3 has turned vitriolic.
Season 1 of the anime really set the bar high, and most fans will look to it as the gold standard for any future adaptations. The move from Madhouse to JCSstaff brought a change not only in style, but also in quality. Season 2 was widely panned for the animation issues that Season 3 still suffers from. It's fair for fans to be concerned with the anime's inconsistent quality, but Nagai has become a lighting rod for criticism, with many overlooking the hard work he and other JCS staff members put into making Season 3 as good as possible.
“This is annoying. Let's all stop arguing with each other. Let's do something fun instead.”
The saddest part of this whole situation is that it has negatively affected Nagai. It seems like an early attempt by the director to interact with the fans and get people excited for the new season. Many fans have shown support for her online, but it seems that a select few have spoiled what should be the biggest moment of her career.
For fans keeping up with the new season, it's important to remember that there's still a lot more to come. Reacting to individual episodes on a week-to-week basis is part of the seasonal anime experience, but the final product isn't out yet. Things can improve, and at the end of it all, even Nagai's biggest critics can sing a different tune.
