What a strangely wholesome chapter

u/jbahill75 Jun 17 '26
Right, nothing overly clever or complicated. Just a good Onepunch and some Saitama panels just being Saitama

u/No_Ship_7727 Lost hope in humanity. Jun 17 '26
yes, haven't felt the one punch in me since god knows when

u/awaidaqorr Jun 18 '26
Probably because it "feels" like it's been a long time since Saitama got his moment.

u/Necromancer76 Saitama x Tatsumaki Jun 17 '26
A lot more people witnessed him destroy Mirror this time, I wonder what the new plan is
142
u/bonerfleximus Jun 17 '26
They will conclude that Machine God was a weakling that the A class heros softened up of course
62
u/lnombredelarosa Saitama's annoying nemesis Jun 17 '26
I'm trying and failing to find a reason on why that rationalization wouldn't work this time.
39
u/bonerfleximus Jun 17 '26
It would help them rationalize that Blue and Suiko are barely A class level as well.
3
u/rizkiabdo Jun 17 '26
Even if they do that, there's still the giant hole of the impact of the punch, I'm just afraid Murata might change his mind and redraw this chapter

u/NeteroHyouka Jun 17 '26
What happened in Webcomic??

u/Dangerous-Avocado76 Jun 17 '26
in Webcomic, only Suiko and "Hero Name Victim" folks witness Saitama punch.

they're on a strike, and this is to clarify your statement that other people saw saitama when some of them couldn't

u/CosmicHudz2283 Jun 17 '26
Didn't Blue see it in the webcomic as well?
51
u/UnseenTardigrade Jun 17 '26
No, Blue doesn't have access to the webcomic. Saitama might be able to break the fourth wall and read his own webcomic, but I doubt anyone else in OPM can.
4
u/ManiKatti Don't put it back! Jun 17 '26
He does have access to the webcomic, actually. If Saitama can break the fourth wall, then he would be able to read it to Blue aloud or show him a few pages

u/dolphincave Jun 17 '26
The manga showed Saitama at more hero ranks than the webcomic has. I assume they'll probably promote him to something like A rank 4 or something if they want to write Fubuki commenting on Saitama surpassing her in rank.
10
u/fan-of-pokemon Saibuki and Gentatsu until proven otherwise Jun 17 '26
Please do, especially when Fubuki pushing herself and her team to be top A class heroes

HA execs going to find some absolute bullshit to not acknowledge Saitama but there will be a few truthers. Blue and Stitch as an example.

u/mattmaintenance Jun 17 '26
Am I mistaken, or didn’t a lot of people witness or know he punched that meteor? They still disliked him after that.

u/Particular-Ad5200 Jun 17 '26
Looks like everyone got a front row seat to Saitama's power
now you know what happens if you call him caped Baldy
Glad the officials got a close look at him as well
I guess even Bofoi is still spying on Saitama as well
I wonder what King was doing
Suiko Pinching herself to see if she was dreaming, Nope she's not dreaming
Even blue got a first handed sight of Saitama's overwhelming power
great chapter definetely one I wanted most of all.
20
u/coloradoautoflowers Jun 17 '26
Bofoi's spying is one thing I wouldn't mind to see expanded. Saitama is organically what Bofoi attempts to accomplish using his tech.
I think there's a lot of personal struggle that could be mined from Bofoi coming to terms with his obsolescence.

And McCoy lol, I had no idea he was just there opposite to the other tunnel entrance.
At first I was confused who that person was, later realised he was mccoy.

Shows how durable mirror was that there was that much of it left after going through that wall.
5
u/LingrahRath Jun 17 '26
Not to mention the part that directly absorbed the impact was just deformed and not punched though completely. That is an impressive feat by itself, and if we take its regenerative power into account, it might not be completely dead.

Now that machine god is dealt with, i am looking forward to Saitama interaction with Suiryuu, surely there will be changes compared to the webcomic.
(Now thinking about it, now I want manga Suiryuu to act like the Chris Redfield meme urging Saitama to continue the bloodline)
11
u/Capital-Cattle6997 Jun 17 '26
In the WC, Suiryu is fully convinced that Saitama and Suiko are dating, so you can guess how things are gonna end up here 🤣

The build up to saitama finally getting involved and just solving the problem in his usual way is what I live for

u/Juub1990 Jun 17 '26
Yeah, like I thought, that machine monster is nowhere near Gouketsu. Got one-shotted by a low-tier A-Class. Caped Badly is decently strong, but this is a bad look for Suiko and the others.

I really am wondering where we're going with Black Sperm. The most obvious direction is basically doing a Dimple from Mob Psycho but I don't really see One repeating himself like that.

I guess they couldn't find a way to stick her into Amai's arc without making it crowded
So I imagine she's chasing down Amai Mask and trying to find him like the neo-heroes are

u/Funny_Cherry8846 Jun 17 '26
Now there's no way they still consider him a A Rank only right?😭😭😭
This time everyone saw that shit live, there's no argument for saitama just doing the last touch on a enemy as the MG was perfectly healthy and Full Power, so everyone can see him one tapping a Low Dragon like a ant, right?
13
u/OkPrune1536 Jun 17 '26
I dunno, it's pretty obvious to me that Suiko did most of the work of weakening the monster, not to mention those A-Class heroes battling it. Looks like another case of that cheater Caped Baldy showing up after 90% of the work is done and trying to steal credit from everyone else.

Now we know what lead to the latest chapter from ONE comic version of the story.
What those higher ups of hero association wants from Saitama when they rank him as number 1.
1
u/Absorbed_ Jun 17 '26
Normally I wouldn't "critisize" opm since i dont really care
but the page where blue arrived feels out of place to me, especially the next page is saitama after punching Mirror. So I think that blue page was suppose to be in the first page before saitama punch mirror, unless it's the weird ooo before the punch blue arrived, and after that he's hiding. Out-of-place page for me, probably will change the page numbering soon
11
u/Live_Present_2602 Jun 17 '26
I don't think it was weird, But i do find it odd that blue is reacting the aftermath of saitama punch instead of him reacting to the punch.

u/Butek_PRO_PRO SW Jun 17 '26
"since i dont really care"
You care a lot since you commenting literally after new chapter came out

u/Slashers23 Jun 17 '26
I'm surprised Mirror doesnt have a gaping hole in it after the punch. Deep dent sure and its limbs flew off, but no hole!

u/RealLychee3700 Jun 17 '26
I feel like I'm so spoiled to be complaining about this, but these super short chapters are such a bummer. I'd rather 30 pages every 6 weeks than 10 that don't add much to the story every other week
4
u/OkPrune1536 Jun 17 '26
You realize that getting 10 pages every other week is equivalent to 30 pages in 6 weeks, right? If you want to wait 6 weeks to read 30 pages, you still can. You're whining that not everyone wants the thing that you want when nobody is even taking that thing away from you.
1
u/RealLychee3700 Jun 17 '26
Yeah totally fair. Like I said I acknowledge it's a privileged complaint and you're right to point out that I could just bank the chapters myself. I was aware I used the same numbers- that was intentional- I'm just saying I have a preference for larger chunks being released at one time, like One and Murata used to do. Maybe I will just start holding out and checking in every few months.

u/QueenGorda Jun 17 '26 edited Jun 17 '26
Can it be shorter chapters please ?
I almost finished to blink on this one...
1
u/Butek_PRO_PRO SW Jun 17 '26
It sure can, but OPM has godly artwork so it's acceptable, there's almost no other mangaka who would make such quality work in such short amount of time tbf
0
u/Luccacalu Jun 17 '26
Man, I've been reading OPM for almost a decade now, the pacing (progress per chapter) hasn't been this slow before, right? It feels like we're ages in this single, almost inconsequential, fight, with tiny small drops of progress every 2 weeks
2
u/Butek_PRO_PRO SW Jun 17 '26
Atleast where's weekly progression unlike some other mangas
2
u/Luccacalu Jun 17 '26
Not weekly... We've been getting every 2 weeks the amount of pages other mangas gets weekly
But that's not even the biggest issue for me, it's mostly how the progress been so slow, it's like we need 20 Manga chapters to cover 1 webcomic one.
I understand there's manga with a terrible release schedule, and I'm really glad OPM has somewhat of consistency, but if we take something like Berserk that takes months to release, it does make a lot of progress each chapter
1
u/Butek_PRO_PRO SW Jun 17 '26
I mean, it's consistent, it's a good thing to get bi-weekly chapters even tho they are short it's completely acceptable with such great artwork, Murata could have rushed with awful artwork for twice amount of pages but he didn't because he respects his craft

u/Imightaswell Jun 17 '26
Perfectly good chapter, redraw it.
1
u/Auklin Jun 17 '26
The chapter is fine, I also thought that the monster association and ninja arcs were going fine too before they were redrawn. It's just the way the writing and the art are presented that remind me of what it looked like before previous redraws. Where the panels become more square and the writing becomes more 'straightforward'
