For me, I can't see One Punch Man as a show that will suddenly really sharply improve because while it has an overarching story most of its development is through vignettes, so its a lot more episodic and insular. By the end of the season I felt that it had already become trapped by ideas it had already articulated, and its humour had sort of run its course."}
