    First episode and I already love it

    I saw this anime online once and I finally took the time to watch it. Needless to say, the first few episodes are none less than EXCELLENT! It's action packed, funny, has just the right amount of hot people for the classic anime needs. As soon as I watched the first episode I found myself watching all of them and telling all my friends to watch it; it's so amazing, something to be put to the top, next to Death Note or Fullmetal Alchemist, or Dragon Ball Z. Definitely my favorite anime currently. There's not that much to say except that it's definitely a comedy, you'll definitely laugh or have a good chuckle. It is very gory however, not that suitable for younger anime fans. Though if you've watched Neon Genesis Evangelion or Future Diary, this show is most likely in your range of comfort and you'll most likely enjoy this anime as much as I have. Again, great anime so far.

    Thoughts on the first two seasons

    The first season was excellent, with very great animation and impressive action sequences, being an amusing parody of action anime shows and the superhero genre.

    The second season, while not as good as the first, was still very entertaining to watch, even if the plot was a little bit more conventional. (With the addition of the typical "rival" character, though there were a couple of interesting aspects in his backstory)

    My vote vote for the first season is 9/10.

    My vote for the second is 8/10.

    Absolutely think one punch man is excellent

    Honestly when I first heard of this anime, it was shown as a "ok" meme gif on Facebook and made me fall in love with the show as well as its main characters. I like how Saitama is this laid back hero but at the same time, does his best to be badass and save the world. I even like his robot companion Genos, he's also likeable too and actually kind of sweet for a tough ass looking hero himself. As well as that, he cares about Saitama and that really stands out with the show!

    Love the humour, the characters and its on going storyline. I'm even looking forward to season 2 and hopefully it's good as its original first season!

    One-Punch Dude

    A new perspective in the Japanese Anime. No mainstream characters, not a cliché story or plot, it has a great potential in becoming even better, personally I didn't read the manga(the comic) and in my opinion this anime show is really watchable and I recommend it to everyone no parental advisory, call them even and watch it together.

    Saitama is very interesting character you'll never know what he is going to do next or when is he going to punch the opposer.

    Don't hesitate and start watch this great show you won't be disappointed, and you'll thank anyone and everyone who made you watch it.

    Definitely a must-watch anime

    I didn't know about the anime when its manga existed but many people told me that "this thing is brilliant you gotta read it" and I was like "meh" and didn't bother much. However, recently I saw that the show is being animated and 6 episodes were released and I just wanted to give it a shot. And I was like.. Boom! Absolutely blown away with the first episode and watched all 6 episodes without a break and I can say this is currently the best anime out there you can watch.

    The story is about a bald superhero defeating every bad-ass enemy in his way with a single blow. The animation is spectacular(better than any anime made IMO), the jokes and puns are hilarious, most importantly the plot and pacing of the story is so fast and there are definitely zero windy/exaggerated moments scenes. So, every tiny bit of second you watch has a value and NEVER boring since they packed 22 manga episodes into 6 anime episodes so far. I watched over a hundred anime but this is the first one making me impatiently wait for Sundays. Just go and watch it, NOW!
