I had a beer once with Stephen Miller and now I like him.

I also tried to ban someone from a Discord for pointing out what an unrelenting shithead I am! I'm even dumb enough to think it worked!

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say Murata might be a good artist. Maybe.

It's me, I'm the nerd who is still upset the translators didn't notice his name is a direct parallel to Speed of Sound Sonic. His name should be Speed of Light Flash, darn it!

Flashy Flash works for that though, it's totally dumb and redundant. Except unlike a certain tryhard ninja he doesn't go around calling himself that.

Yes very much this. The panel of Flash reflected in the giant octopus's eye while he stabbed it was great. Still as cool as all that was it dosn't take away the sting of not being the Garou Watchdog Man fight.

Any moment when Saitama is out of costume, KING is nowhere to be seen, or Genos is not on screen getting owned is 100% canonically filler.

It has to have happened off screen, for the joke to work when we come back.

The chapter end cuts in this are so harsh that I always think it's like the early 2000s and I downloaded a zip file full of scanned pages that is just missing stuff.

Part of me wants to be upset but there's no rushing murata, he can take all the time he needs, imo.

I'm not super worried, because this probably means he's just working on the anime.

The pacing doesn't really bother me, it just always feels like one page got left off at the end of a chapter.

Maybe that's intended? Seems like Murata always leaves us wanting more, which is a good thing. He's skilled at creating a compelling cliffhanger.

I guess what I'm saying is it doesn't feel like a cliffhanger, just that it's literally cutting out mid-action. I don't really know how to explain it other than it feels like a page got cut off and I'm surprised when I click on next page and get the "this chapter is not yet released" note. I don't really get that feeling with any other series.

I'm still digging the comic but it's just an observation I've been slowly noticing.

Agreed, it's a valid observation and I would love to see more action whenever possible. But when it comes to Murata, I'd rather have quality over quantity. Takes time to draw somebody like Flashy Flash. :c00l:

Isn't it Murata copying ONE's style when the chapter ends abruptly like that? He didn't have a hand in 100 Mob Psycho and it happens all the time in that comic.

Yeah, it's really just how ONE does cliffhangers. He has a really different writing style from the usual shonen stuff.

It has to be padded out so the anime can cut off right before the Monster Association really starts unfortunately.
