Garou's hair is definitely supposed to look like that, and it's very faithful to the original.

But everything in the original looks like a poorly drawn mess.

Murata's version is exactly how ONE envisioned his comic would look like, if he were able to do what Murata can do.

Can we talk about the extra chapters added in post-story arc?

Because holy cow, the smelly lid prison introduction for Pri-Pri Prisoner has become one of my favorite parts of the series. It was so well done and I practically lost my poo poo over the big reveal at the end, it was that funny

'SHUUUUUUUT UUUUUUUUUUUUUP!'

I find it hilarious how Fubuki still gets a spot in the S class lineup because she's popular. Also that serious knitting. :allears:

Yeah same with that class B nobody in the center of the poster. At least King, the best hero, got a big chunk in the foreground.

What's that thing at the top, directly above Tatsumaki and Pig God, supposed to be? It looks like it's supposed to be something but I can't figure it out.

There's a fan theory that blast is just the codename the hero association assigns to all the guys who Saitama beat up but don't actually know his true identity.

I'm wondering if, given the similarity in naming, he's not the brother Bang mentions in the just linked chapter.

How do you not put cabbage in a hot pot? I think we see who the real monster is, here.

Saitama has to rename himself One Pair Of Chopsticks-Man. Nice that they called back to the other side story where he saved the attempted suicide with a pair of chopsticks as well.

LOL at the Harsh Path guy who can't take a gentle push from Genos, plus they are lucky Saitama chose to funnel his awesome power through the chopsticks, there is no way they could survive a single punch from him.

Bang has an older brother?!! How much older can you get? Also, love that 'Kids these days' look on his face on page 8.

It's also rare and rewarding to see Saitama really enjoy something other than a special sale.

I'm not 100% sure but it looks like this story wasn't drawn by Murata, was it? It seems to be a slightly different but no less awesome style.

'all of this just because of cabbage' ROFL!

They probably just look slightly different because they're (I think?) scans from a magazine, whereas OPM is usually translated using webraws.

Yeah, OPM is usually published online so you'd get high-resolution cleaned up pages by default there.

Murata probably isn't putting his full effort into side stories. They still look great and all, but side stuff isn't going to get his usual, insane treatment.
