Fans Use AI to Improve One Punch Man Season 3 Animation

Fans can’t seem to forgive the questionable quality of One Punch Man Season 3, even though the anime’s team did their best with the resources they had. Despite their efforts, the director was harassed and eventually deleted his Twitter account.

Now, things have reached a new level — fans are asking AI to improve One Punch Man Season 3 animation. A video is circulating on social media showing, on one side, the original anime and, on the other, the same scenes recreated using Grok.

Let’s be honest… the Grok version looks pretty good, doesn’t it?

This only proves that AI could be used in anime production as a tool to support studios and animators. Here are some fan reactions:

• “I’d rather watch a 2-frame animation made by Japanese artists than this soulless AI garbage.”
• “Is this the end of PowerPoint anime studios?”
• “This AI reminds me of Kengan Ashura’s animation.”
• “Even the boobs are better animated than in the hentai director’s work.”
• “Sorry to my anti-AI friends… but I’d happily take an AI-made One Punch Man 3 over what we have now.”
• “I wanted to defend the animators, but even the AI does it better.”
• “The animation is smoother, expressions more natural — using AI for animation is clearly better.”
• “We need AI Punch Man!”

Fans continue to criticize the animation quality of One Punch Man Season 3, especially due to major mistakes like the brief gender swap of a character in some frames.

Still, if the team could use AI as a tool to enhance the quality of the animation, would the anime have turned out better?
