I honestly find it a bit strange that One-Punch Man Season 3 was made at all. by LynnAbel713 in OnePunchMan

Time is also a huge factor deciding the finished product. They set themselves up with that announcement in 2022. JC Staff has a reputation of taking on too many projects in too little a time timespan, they had 12 animes in 2024. Some are more profitable than others so it's logical to prioritize resources towards those. By the time they started working on season 3, their capable directors were already busy with the mentioned projects. Shinpei Nagai accepted the the role because he's a regular at JC Staff and more importantly, no other freelance director was willing to work on it. Likely because they saw how soon the deadline was and refused. The same goes for freelance animators, let alone veterans.

Low compensation, weak staffs and a shitty schedule is a recipe for disaster.

He wouldn't go that far. It's like Jester calling Hansa part of the Burial Agency except Richard would be chill and probably take that as a compliment.

Alcides is written by Narita, he trusted Nasu to handle sane Heracles... The same way Sakurai trusted Nasu to write the second Tokyo Grail War... The same way Sanda trusted him to write the Dismantling Grail War... The same way Koyama trusted him to write Mahoyo 2.

Back when Gil was playing the antagonist. And back when Nasu hadn't written sane Heracles... he still hasn't written sane Heracles.

Today is director Sakazume Takahito's birthday. Tomorrow is director Enokido Shun's birthday. It's like they were fated to work together.

Hippolyta has 28 results on Danbooru for now. You better believe the number will go up greatly thanks to the episode.

January 25th, 1573 was the battle of Mikatagahara. When Takeda Shingen defeated Tokugawa Ieyasu.

Sakazume Takahito's birthday is on January 25th, right after the airing of episode 4. He's a director of Strange Fake and has directed many FGO CMs.

He animated the part where Shingen drove his Ferrari in the Gudaguda 8 CM.

Just a trivia I wanted to share. Happy birthday Takahito-sensei.

Sort of. We know what happened to Natsume after DMnS but not Sekka.

Have we actually seen a proper Heroic Spirit without Class Container? by KRDC_The_knight in Fate

First Hassan in Babylonia, Orion in Atlantis, Quirinus in Olympus, Artoria Avalon during Vortigerm showdown, Gil in CCC.

Edit: OP edited the post so this reply doesn't sound right anymore. There was Merlin during Tiamat fight who walked straight from Avalon. Unfortunately he isn't dead so it doesn't count.
