the source material for the next season is nothing but amazing - i just hope the series can live up to expectations without madhouse being the animation studio again.

I haven’t been able to find any reason why Madhouse will not do season 2. Was it Madhouse’s decision? Was it ONE’s decision? Were there any conflicts involved? Season 1 was very successful. It would be like if HBO did one season of Game of Thrones and then like, “Nah, we won’t do second season. Let AMC do it.”

apparently that’s just how madhouse does things and the impression i got was that they’re kind of famous for only getting a series started to then give it away to some other studio. seeing comments like “wow, studio madhouse actually did season 2 [for anime xy]”.

Just before One Punch Man season 2 is released, Netflix drops the new Ultraman anime. I’ve watched the first episode and it looks promising! Makes me nostalgic for those days when I was watching Ultraman Taro on VHS.

Did you watch any more of it? I watched the first couple episodes and sort of kept wanting to watch more even though it seems kinda… corny xD they were just throwing stuff at you without meaningful transitions and it made me laugh 
I never knew anything about Ultraman before this so it’s probably (a lot) more meaningful to people who have, but just wondering if the pacing/set up/story in general gets smoother or not

The new Ultraman anime is a case where the pilot episode is so good, then the rest of the series is just meh.
Other Ultraman series are basically a live-action, monster-of-the-week tokusatsu. Every episode starts with a villain making trouble, then Ultraman confronts this villain, they fight, then they transform into giants, fight further, then Ultraman wins.
The new series is more dramatic. There is a continuous episodic story. I guess the story itself is kinda compelling, sort of a passing-of-the-torch between Ultraman generations. But the pacing is so slow, I also gave up by the fourth episode.
Still excited about new seasons of One Punch Man and Hinamatsuri!

Hinamatsuri is like Mork and Mindy if Mork is an extra-terrestrial girl with telekinesis power and Mindy is a yakuza gang member.
