I really appreciate this chapter, specifically Glasses just socking Garou a good one, if only because 99% of the time, Garou is that kid on the playground who when acting out cool anime fights who just goes "i dodged it"

Actually, Garou is the guy who keeps playing the villain and wonders why he can't be allowed to win and then gets kicked in the teeth. That was actually his backstory a few chapters ago. This is his whole sympathetic arc, but I can't blame people for forgetting it.

To be fair he's more a person that became insanely dedicated to beating the living poo poo out of that kid when he grew up.

Hopefully Garou can triumph over these seemingly insurmountable odds. Cuz otherwise he won't be able to take his place as Saitama's greatest enemy.

I love that the heroes aren't slouches. This sequence could easily have been written as a one-sided beatdown where Garou unexpectedly crushes the opposition. But nope, the heroes are actually capable, cool, and work well together. It's a great way to remind us why they're so important in-universe.

Garou's more interesting as an underdog anyway.

I can wait to see Gun Gun use his Gun Gun Pistol. Maybe he can team up with Death Gatling to become Gun Gun Gatling.

It's also nice that Gatling gives us the in-universe 'the hero class system is unfair' spiel too.

I love Garou, but Glasses stole the show for me. Glad to see him back.

I think he will in some way. Garou mentioned a hostage and the heroes spoke of the rich kid as though they didnt know there was a boy in the shed.

It would take some severe bullshit for him to turn this one around, I think the kid has to come out and give him his opening to get away.

Action-wise this may have been the coolest chapter of OPM yet.

The kid will come out and Death Gattling will be all 'Why didn't you kill the kid, 'monster'?' And Garou'll be all like 'Oh uh, no no I'm still so totally super evil you guys, really, I'm a real piece of poo poo trust me' and then everyone'll leave because Garou isn't worth their time because that kid ruined his street cred.

I like that Garou didn't win (yet?), but you know, it seems like the Water Polo Carbonated Fist deflects 98% of projectiles but is 0 for 2 on deflecting punches. 0 for 4 if you count Saitama.

OPM Season 2 is by J.C Staff instead of Madhouse with all new personnel.

What does this mean, for someone that doesn't know one animation studio from another?

Josuke Higashikata

It's bad news.

A lot of OPM was a passion project with people brought on by the previous director who had pull with them.

If the people who had the passion for the project have left, that's not good. It's bad. Bad news.

This is the new director:

I won this avatar on a technicality this thick.
The OPM dub aired on Toonami and I think there's some kind of deal where shows on Netflix don't air on Toonami and vice versa, but I could be wrong about that.

It's actually a pretty good dub, surprisingly. I just can't remember where I watched it. I think it might've been on Adult Swim for a bit?

Yes, it was on Adult Swim. I still have the episodes on my DVR. It was a good enough dub that I never bothered looking it up in the original Japanese.
