khy posted:Somehow looking at Saitama in the manga I always envisioned him having a higher pitched voice than he does in the anime. Not a LOT higher, but say, somewhere around Luffy's pitch instead of Zoro's pitch. I tried mangareader, but that was a big pile of poo poo. Some chapters seemed to be missing, some were half-scanned or failed to load and some chapters repeated with a new number.

It's the kind of joke that works better in a comic, because it's also sort of a comment on the medium as well. "Stop relying so much on text boxes, show, don't tell" the protagonist screams, taking a giant dump on Tim Buckley and people like him. In anime form, it could be very hard to process the humor and frankly it wouldn't have been a big issue if they skipped it entirely to do their own take on it. As we got it, I am just thankful it wasn't longer, but whether it went on for too long is really a matter of how many times are you really going to see that scene. You can endure it the once time, but I can imagine dreading that scene for a rewatch of the show. In the manga, you can just skip the panels entirely.

I dunno about the rest of you, but the only reason I'd rewatch a series is to show it off to someone else and having them not sit through the 2 minutes scene would be doing them a disservice. And yes, "dreading" is a hyperbole. Weirdos.

It feels like One-punch man is sort of the hero that the people who write Superman comics in the west wish they could write him as, but just straight up fail to.

Rexides posted:Genos is like that D&D player who thinks that any NPC the GM puts there has to do with his character's elaborate backstory. It's not like cyborgs/androids/robots are that much of a common occurrence, even in-universe, so Genos being suspicious of other mechanoids is kinda natural.

I think I read somewhere that the Christian God's actual name is supposed to have the first two letters capitalized. So, GOd, not just God. It is still worth noting that God is then a name and god is a type of being. Deity is sort of what you use when referring to another religions gods beside the one you worship yourself, if I recall correctly.

The TV version might be simple, but I can look at it without cringing, so I'll take it if push comes to shove. Fair enough, I can't disagree on that front. I assume it looks better in motion.

Cool, the local hobbystore is selling the manga now. I picked up the two first volumes and I read the first one, but I don't quite *get* the bonus story at the end. Did it have any connection with the snowman later?

I didn't actually watch the show, but according a goon earlier it was a flashback to when they were children and the scene looked very different from the rest of the show altogether. Trying to look it up online is just more confusing and makes me have more questions.

The hero counsil seems really inapt at recognizing the true worth of heroes. Like, how do they even have all these tests that measure peoples capabilities yet aren't even good enough to recognize just how limitless Saitama's strength is when S-class heroes are already so strong as Tazumaki?

Josuke Higashikata posted:I'm not sure it'd be very satisfying if Saitama were quickly recognised for what he truly is. I'm not saying he should have been, it's far more entertaining to watch idiots fumble with numbering and rankings and get it all wrong than someone actually competent getting involved in doing things the most effective way. Just saying Blast might be a correlation of poor decision-making. I'd like to add overestimation, but we already have King, who is perfect in every way.

If I understood the bonus comic of the second volume correctly, that is also the real secret to his strength: He never stopped beating up monsters. And at some point lost a tooth or something.

Personally I hope King takes it on himself to train at some point and become the hero everyone believes him to be. He is like my favorite character and I can only feel sadness at the idea that anime only people will only get a small taste of the power that is the King Engine.

The king engine was fine, nobody comments on it until the arc with the monster bird and I assume the loudness will become more evident then to the point where it lives up to our expectations. You know, in season 2.

ChaosArgate posted:All of the SFX for the King Engine in the Viz release is translated as a distinct "RMBL RMBL", which sounds less like the "ba-bump" of a heartbeat and more like an actual engine to me, but it's all up to interpretation really. That's on Viz, I guess, because in the original japanese it is just "GoGoGoGo" over and over, which is used as the onomatopoeia in Japanese for something menacing, regular heart beating and rumbling, so it isn't like they were wrong, but clearly the anime people conferred with ONE on how it should sound like and that is what we got.

They wouldn't have added the King engine if they didn't feel the same way, but we all regret we won't see it until a season 2 is approved. And it'll not be until end of Garou arc.
