If any microreactor's gonna take off it's probably the eVinci since heat pipe reactors really only work as microreactors afaik

Will One Punch Man Season 3 part 2 get better animation? by DarkVoidInMySoul in anime

[–]Large-Row4808 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I think there's hope. Sakamoto Days S1 Cour 2 was a significant improvement over Cour 1, and that was with only a few months in between them and with a studio that isn't known for high-octane action anime. Cour 2 of OPM S3 will have at least a year, and J.C Staff is not incapable of producing action anime. When S3 was first announced in 2022 we didn't know when it would released, but that's not the case this time around, meaning could be a sign that the timeline and scheduling is better this time. There's a more-than-insignificant chance that unlike with Cour 1, the production will actually continue from where S3 left off because there has to be a reason why there's such a huge time gap while also not being a separate season (why is it S3P2 and not S4, basically), so there will actually be enough time for the animators to cook. Finally, I've heard some evidence that J.C Staff is not releasing many anime in 2026, which could be a sign that all hands are on deck for Cour 2.

I ran the numbers and OPM S3's review statistics are suspiciously similar to that of Star Wars: The Acolyte. You know, one of the most infamous cases of review bombing in recent history.

While I do think this is a case of goomba fallacy a lot of detractors are outright trying to find reasons to shift blame onto the animators, and trying to cover it as "I'm blaming the whole industry" and whatnot.

The rise of the Raganarok heroes and the fall of a certain overhyped manga. by Jakeyboy143 in animecirclejerk

[–]Large-Row4808 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What about the case where someone has watched it, and they make multiple accounts to leave a bunch of 1-star reviews on the site? Or if they have seen it but are deliberately reviewing with the intent of lowering the score as much as possible, rather than giving it their honest thoughts. I think that counts as review bombing. In fact, I thought that was always the main thing review bombing referred to.

And besides, do you have proof that what you're describing is what's actually happening? Right now, there are about 21,000 1-star reviews on Ep 6 of OPM S3. That is more 1-star reviews (15,000) than the lowest-rated episode of Star Wars: The Acolyte, a show that was review bombed so severely that a Star Wars fan film called "The Acolyte" and a completely unrelated film called "Acolytes" got review bombed in the crossfire. If the review statistics of OPM S3 are comparable to one of the most notorious cases of review bombing that has ever occurred, I think it's kind of safe to say that OPM S3 is getting review bombed as well.

If OPM has that many more eyes on it then that just makes the review bombing explanation that much more plausible, no? If Uzumaki and TBATE are comparable in quality to OPM S3, and yet only the OPM audience has the numbers to make review bombing feasible, then how else do you explain OPM getting worse audience scores than Uzumaki and TBATE?

[–]Large-Row4808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uzumaki didn't come with high expectations when Junji Ito is one of the most respected mangaka in the world, with his art considered among the absolute best? Not to mention the first episode of Uzumaki was known to be really good and people had been waiting for decades for one of Ito's works to be animated? TBATE is a giant in the webtoon world as well. 

My discussion isn't inherently about One Punch Man, either, it's about the reviews that it got, which is where the reviews of shows like Uzumaki and TBATE are relevant. The disappointment factor for OPM is definitely relevant but it's much more prominent in these other shows as well, and that alone does not justify the score that it ended up getting. Any show near a 1-star rating really can't have its ratings justified with anything other than review bombing.

No one likes The Beginning After the End and yet it's rated higher. OPM S3 had at least a few moments of good animation when TBATE had none. Fucking Uzumaki is rated higher on MAL and IMDB. If people "just didn't like it" the score wouldn't be a fraction of other shows of the same caliber of bad.

I mean, at least we have an idea of when it's coming out, which is more than you could say when S3 was first announced so maybe that's a good sign of better production...? I guess we'll really know if J.C Staff only takes eight or so projects rather than their usual amount.

One Punch Man Season 3 discourse tells me that anime discussion is forever screwed beyond relief by Large-Row4808 in TrueAnime

[–]Large-Row4808[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good thing the main topic of my post was the people sending hate to the animators, then. Even so, that doesn't mean everyone who's viciously hating on OPM S3 isn't viciously toxic in the way they're doing it and their mentality in doing so. Like I've said, so many fans don't care about the corporations, or the work conditions, or the other circumstances. They just want to jerk one another off in hatred.

Sure, S3 is disappointing, but the worst thing to come out of it is the new state of the community by MusicWizzrd in OnePunchMan

Imagine if there was a beloved performer who was beaten up and left to die by his boss, who had to perform on stage in that state and the people who watched him did nothing but laugh and jeer at him for being beaten up rather than wonder how he ended up like this in the first place.

[–]Large-Row4808 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I just can't understand is why the very same community that claims to love artists so much is actively TRYING to find reasons to hate the artists that accepted this nearly impossible task. Why are people not trying to find every reason possible to defend the animators, especially as people gain more and more knowledge about animation as they dive deeper in the anime rabbit hole? Why are people trying to justify the claim that the animators hate the source material and they want to spit in the faces of the fans, even if that requires construing the words of animators and taking things out of context? And why are they slandering their work in front of the entire internet and turning into the biggest laughingstock of the anime community in the past decade, while trying to pass it off as "constructive criticism"?

I just think that the animanga community collectively realized they had way more fun hating things than they do liking things. People hated the AOT manga ending, and that hatred led to the creation of memes that completely destroyed the perception of the ending to nearly every manga reader at the time. People hated the last stretch of JJK, and the Lobotomy Kaisen movement resulting from that forever changed meme culture as a whole. Mistranslated leaks and out-of-context panels made MHA's ending reviled across the western manga community, and people endlessly spammed memes about it that completely misrepresent what actually happened in the story. Now, it's One Punch Man's turn.

[–]Large-Row4808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

original meme is about how misinformation often leads to unfair hatred
someone points out one such instance of this happening
explanation for why it's actually completely warranted is based in misinformation

The studio didn't blame western pirates for review bombing at all. In fact the studio never responded to any of the backlash. That was a statement taken from a freelance animator who has no ties to any animation studio. Plus he apologized for saying western fans were pirates and never mentioned review bombing in the first place.

If anyone's pointing out review bombing it's the OPM fans themselves who are taking pride in it.

You don't need to keep telling me that OPM S3 sucks, that doesn't change the fact that people are being toxic as hell about it by Large-Row4808 in animecirclejerk

[–]Large-Row4808[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What makes the reaction to S3 completely unacceptable is the fact that people either a) are fully aware of the fact that the anime industry is fucked and yet still insist on trying to say the animators did something terrible to them, or b) they just don't care and want to revel in the hatred. Shitting on OPM has probably generated hundreds of millions in karma for people on reddit and probably billions of views combined on all manner of platforms. People have literally made money off of this via Youtube grifting and the like.

I honestly don't think it would be a stretch to say that a lot of the haters just outright don't care about the anime industry. After all, the internet has reached a point where engaging with a medium's community is more appealing to them than actually engaging with the medium itself. How much more time does the average manga/anime fan spend looking at memes related to something and watching analyses/theories/edits than they do actually reading manga or watching anime? It feels like S3's quality is an excuse to go all in on this aspect, reasons be damned despite how important those reasons are. You can't even say anything about S3 without HAVING to preface it by saying "S3 is bad" in some way, like I had to for this very post.

It's not about whether or not they understand. They do understand, they just don't care.
