One-Punch Man Season 3 Hits New Low as Episode 6 Scores 2.6–2.7 on IMDb
The collapse in user scores deepens frustration over pacing, animation quality and who bears responsibility for the season’s production.
Overview
- Episode 6, titled Motley Heroes, is reported at 2.6–2.7/10 on IMDb and is being described as one of the lowest-rated anime episodes recorded on the platform.
- Viewer comments cite slow, recap-heavy storytelling and weak animation, with some calling for an apology to ONE and Yusuke Murata or a full remake.
- Across the six released episodes, none has surpassed a 5.3/10 IMDb rating, according to compiled figures reported by FandomWire.
- GamesRadar+ notes signs of one-star review bombing, while also highlighting thousands of complaints that detail specific issues with the episode.
- Blame is largely directed at J.C. Staff, though industry artist Vincent Chansard argues production-committee decisions may be a key factor as the season continues through December.
