It's time for the seasonal OP/ED roundup! I want to hear about your favorite OPs and EDs for the season (alternatively, your least favorites!). If you are looking for a collection of them all for this season, you can find almost all of them at the link below:

Winter Episode Discussion Thread Guide (ani.social)

submitted 9 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

11 comments fedilink

While we all wistfully remember shinobu, the community here has been making discussion threads for the shows we have been watching. To try to make things a bit easier, I have tried to collect all the threads for the winter seasonal shows in one place. I will try to keep this updated as things go forward. Please let me know if I am missing a thread that you would like to be added. This was done in no particular order, but I did group series together.

I would also like to point out that some shows are still having threads posted by shinobu. The shows below should stick to the discussion threads that are posted in [email protected]. Each of the links below is to the most recent episode's discussion post as of the time of this update. Older episodes' threads can be found in the link table of the following posts.

I will keep this pinned for now to act as a hub to enable easy discovery of discussion threads for folks.

No premiere date announced yet. Check out the Crunchyroll article for additional information. Synopsis of the first season from AniList:

Saitama has a rather peculiar hobby, being a superhero, but despite his heroic deeds and superhuman abilities, a shadow looms over his life. He's become much too powerful, to the point that every opponent ends up defeated with a single punch.

The lack of challenge has driven him into a state of apathy, as he watches his life pass by having lost all enthusiasm, at least until he's unwillingly thrust in the role of being a mentor to the young and revenge-driven Genos.
