Instead of sleeping I just read from where Murata left off up to the most recently translated ONE chapter. gently caress... now I need to wait. This sucks.

It's a cookie clicker clone. You push a button to have Saitama defeat a monster, and then a dice roll determines how powerful the monster was in post.

Bisse posted:I think the latest stuff - the OVA's, Murata-only material, side chapters - have made it painfully obvious that the premise of this series, while hilarious, is not enough to carry an entire series on its own. It also needs a great story with good execution and delivery, which no one but One has been able to pull of to that extent so far. I can definitely understand you and other people wanting Murata to go ahead with the plot already, but I think it's less a matter of the execution and delivery and more about the series really needing a sense of progress and momentum that some of these side stories have lacked. One of the strongest points in OPM is how Saitama and his passive attitude contrast with the other heroes and villains and how frenetic they are. Without a plot moving the story forward, a lot of that frenetic energy is lost, and Saitama is left as a straight man with no comic. Having said that, I don't have too much of a problem with this chapter. A few of the points concerning corruption in the Hero Association and Metal Knight do become relevant in later storylines. I think it's just one of those things where you wait however long for the next chapter to come out that, and when there isn't immediate payoff it's discouraging.

pik_d posted:What are the advantages of bato.to and kissmanga.com because they seem like kinda the same thing to me. As a reader, there's no tremendous difference between the two, aside from the fact that kissmanga will carry some series that bata.to won't. Bato.to tries to be friendlier to the industry and to translators. They take down series if they're ever commercially localized, if requested to by either the series owners, and they'll take down specific translations if the fan translators request them to. Because of this, there are a few fan translators who will only upload to bata.to. Kissmanga and some other sites generally aren't as proactive. They don't take anything down unless they absolutely have to.

And More posted:I hope we can agree, though, that without those first four chapters, none of the other stuff could happen. It's kind of necessary to set up your protagonist before you introduce the sidekick. I don't, actually. I think the segment where Saitama can't manage to slap mosquito (and concludes with him absentmindedly saving Genos) does a better job of introducing the character than the actual introduction, and the the first four chapters are more effective if you read them following the fight with Asura Rhino. This is especially evident in the anime. If you ever rewatch the series, try watching them in the episode order: 2, 3, 1. It really improves the flow of the story.

tiistai posted:Really getting the feeling Murata is kind of phoning these in. A lot of closeups, a fairly abrupt chapter end, "oh she got away while we were talking lol". It's less "oh she got away while we were talking lol" and more "oh she got away because instead of using lethal force I had to hold back to avoid killing your allies." This isn't to say that this was a super eventful chapter, but I do appreciate seeing more of Fubuki and Tatsumaki's very hosed up relationship.

EmmyOk posted:So what exactly is the deal with the story etc. atm? It's half reinforcing certain facts that were known but hadn't been too deeply explored, such as Genos being a legitimately strong hero (despite Saitama showing him up), the relationship between the martial arts world and the heroes association, how different heroes of different rank compare with each other, and half to set up the next arc, what with the sudden increase in monster attacks and monster strength, and the heroes association being streatched dangerously thin. It's kind of going in a lot of directions at once, which is something of a weakness. While it's cool to see Genos actual win some fights, we kind of already understood that there was some relationship between martial artists and the heroes association, and the tournament doesn't really tell us much more besides confirming that, yes, sucha relationship exists. The same is kind of true with the Fukuki Tatsumaki stuff. We already knew they had a hosed up relationship, and the new chapter doesn't really tell us anything new. I hope there's more payoff aside from the promise that the next arc will be better.

EmmyOk posted:Sorry i wasn't clear, I meant with respect to what Murata is adapting and stuff. Is the ONE webcomic ongoing and far ahead or what's the deal between the two? Depending on how you divide things, ONE's version is two or three storylines ahead. I promise you, the future is tremendously baller.

It occurred to me that the reason we're getting so much extra character stuff now is probably because the next arc is so tightly paced that they wouldn't be able to fit any extra stuff in once it gets started. Anything ONE wants to add has to get in now, or be put on hold for quite a while.

ChronoReverse posted:I personally think Psykos will take him out which was how she was the leader. Speculation involving future stuff not yet appearing in this adaptation: Alternatively, he might just be another figurehead for Psykos to manipulate, which likely means Tatsumaki will take him.

# ¿ Sep 26, 2016 01:37 |

The real problem is that if the second season doesn't conclude the Garou arc, then I'd be worried if we'd ever get it. The finale of Garou might be four or five episodes if they stretch it, but it isn't enough for a full third season. There probably isn't enough stuff past to make up the difference, either. Forget the show getting ahead of Murata, it might get ahead of ONE.

EmmyOk posted:Fubuki is the least interesting of the main ensemble we have seen imo and as such I am deeply suspicious of anyone who thinks she is dah best garlllllllllo I think you're selling her short. I find Fubiki's role as this half Mafioso half bancho gang leader figure fascinating for a few reasons. For one, it makes perfect sense that an occupation as violent as a professional hero would lead to such groups forming. For another, it speaks about the greater Hero Association that they would tacitly permit such groups. A a superhero street gang is also something that doesn't really have an equivalent in western comics that I can think of--at least, not one so transparent or played so straight. I like her relationship with her sister, as well. You can see how it's deeply affected her, beyond just a sense of inadequacy, and also how it lead to her becoming this superhero Godmother figure. So while Fubuki might not be as cool as Mumen Rider or Bang (to say nothing about King), she's interesting in the way her character tells us about the larger setting.
