One thing that I'm not sure if anyone has considered: The last ONE chapter is chapter 99. I wouldn't be entirely shocked if he decided he wanted chapter 100 to come out on the day the anime starts airing, to commemorate it.
Saitama will be fighting someone who watched too much anime.

I want to say for the past 4 or 5 years or so. I forget exactly when they actually got on the drat thing, it's been so long.

Well the last two or three issues have been a cutaway of mostly staring at two page spreads of Griffith.

Yeah there was that whole intermediate arc against the Sea God (which looked cool I admit it) and then a bunch of chapters about Griffith and Glorious Falconia.

That would be the problem with things like Berserk and HunterXHunter. If they went to poo poo it'd be easy to forget about them and move on, but when they update they can still be really, really good when they want to. Just keeps you coming back for more pain.

At the very least, when a new chapter in those series comes out, I know that's it and aside from some touch-ups for the tankoubon release what we see is the final product. Whereas OPM... the web release is only the first draft. And I've lost count of the number of times a side chapter only shows up here weeks after it was released.

Aw man, I read that as "Very Special Chapter" and hoped for Saitaman to address the audience ion the importance of not missing Special Sales Days.

The Baked Potato represents the oppression of the poor by the rich. The butter on his head is the small, insignificant pay and favors the rich give to "butter" up the masses.

And don't get me started on flying around using farts...

I love that Saitama does increasingly remarkable heroic feats and never gets credit. Like, it gets more and more ridiculous. I'm looking forward to him one-punching a giant dragon into a million pieces and everyone just assuming it had a hidden bomb inside it or something.
