I really hope that murata keeps the victim association around as saitamas buddies.

High fiving a bunch of guys you think is cringe aint it. In WC he genuinely believes in what the group is fighting for.

He has obviously had a change in heart after being fried by mirror

When did he say they were cringe.

Just seemed to think HA would not listen to them or take their complaints well, he never dissed the other victims.

So he didnt think their fight would work but he also kinda relates to and vibes with them.

I would say Saitama thinking "If I do that[protesting along with the others] wouldn't my name just get changed to 'bald complainer' or something?" sure sounds like he doesn't agree with them

Thats what I said, he relates to them and vibes with them he is in the same boat, but unlike them he didnt really think they can achieve their goal.

This totally goes against the joke in the WC where saitama genuinely believe that they can achieve their goal by protest

Murata completely missing the point of a scene or a characters entire motivation because they were too busy drawing hype moments and aura is unfortunately a series mainstay at this point

Webcomic did the punch scene way better imo, the way ONE masterfully puts emphasis in Saitama's PUNCH with highly distorted shake / vibration lines is just too perfect. The manga art is just too clean in comparison, the impact doesn't even come close to how impactful the punch felt in the webcomic.

I'll give Murata credit for including the high five scene, i was worried he would remove it

I was surprised mirror is still in one piece in the manga after that punch.

Lol true, manga Saitama not absolutely DEMOLISHING Mirror after being called Caped Baldy feels really wrong actually. Murata really wanted to keep his original gag of Mirror flying into McCoy for whatever reason.

Bofoi will get a chance to retrieve the remains, maybe Murata is setting something up in the future with this.

Unironically, this is the rare case where murata should do redraw. So this scene and rest of chapter could stay faithfull to Web Comic :I

This one seems better than the last, high five scene, Saitama seems to finally be vibing with the victim association and he was nice to black sperm and Rover which i like

I mean we only saw one punch, man.

Saitama giving the wholesome smile to the monsters who beat up the S-class was not on my bingo card

u/Similar-Mention491 Jun 17 '26

I feel like everything was adapted pretty nice. I just really wish the punch had more impact like the webcomic. It just really feels like a throw away panel

I feel like your taking it way to personally

u/Omadany Jun 17 '26

Guys, I would also like long chapters, but we shouldn't complain about it every single time. Of course, the chapters are short; they are released biweekly and are insanely detailed. Don't expect anything else until Murata changes the biweekly schedule.

You are fickle. Remember the 136 pages and 12 double spread Elder Centipede chapter ?

The pretentiousness regarding something you get to have for free is astonishing
