His change of heart was moving and touching, especially in a show usually watched for the laughs and the awesome action scenes. Now that he’s been beaten almost to death, and there’s nobody around to help him, the boy cries out for a hero. Since Siuryu was strong and fortunate in many ways, he had never truly needed help before. However, by the last quarter of episode 8, the young man has finally realized that heroes are nothing to laugh at. Regarding the second item, Siuryu lightly dismissed and looked down on heroes, and didn’t seem to change his stance even after Saitama nearly blew him away. There was so much focus on the tournament because it had three important roles: 1) to show us how much Saitama wanted to experience martial arts, 2) to show and develop the character of Siuryu, and 3) to set in place a potentially major blow to the heroes and victory for the monsters. Now, everything has come into place almost perfectly. Though more creative than last season in terms of being less formulaic, the plot did seem a little disordered or scattered. It really helped pull the story together well. Though, the show left us with something of a cliffhanger, cutting off just before things got “good.” So of course that irritated some people, myself included. Well, by the end of episode 8, it looks like that’s finally going to change. There’ve been loads of exicting fights, but none (or few) of them have showed our hero.

That’d be the fact that there’s been so little action featuring Saitama. With regards to how other people are receiving OPM 2, the comments and discussion I see still aren’t that positive, but people have mostly stopped complaining about the “bad” art style and the “boring” plot, and instead they’re honest with what they’re really disappointed about.
