Watch Blast ALSO turn out to be King accidentally taking the credit for someone else's achievements, only this time he doesn't realize it.

skaianDestiny posted:Reusing King's gimmick but now in Blast form is kinda boring. That it may be, but it does seem to be a trending thought amongst most readers who wonder about Blast. I feel that gimmick works with King because he is around somehow still getting away with it. With Blast being away and mysterious for so long, I don't feel like the joke would work even if it was fresh.

S is generally a bunch of weirdos with bad people skills who happen to be so bullshit strong the HA can't afford not to keep them on speed dial for when something nasty shows up. The only one that actually seems to care about boosting their rank is Geno, because Saitama told him to. Blast; the Don Draper to HA's Sterling Cooper

I believe that Blast exists but he's just preoccupied with way more important things than any event on Earth. Just like every other God.

Josuke Higashikata posted:King is a legitimate hero. gently caress this slander. King deliberately put himself in Elder Centipede's sights, and in his path of destruction, in order to save lives and end his menace once and for all, when he didn't have to, he could have just waved goodbye to Saitama and wished him luck, and played some Doki Doki Sisters, safe in his apartment. At that moment, he became a genuine hero, no ifs, ands, or buts about it.

If Blast couldn't beat elder centipede surely he's not even that strong? Bang is a hosed up old man and it looked like him and his even more hosed up brother had a chance.Shugojin posted:Also his back is really hosed up from decades of drawing for hours and hours in really bad positions.

sharktamer posted:If Blast couldn't beat elder centipede surely he's not even that strong? Bang is a hosed up old man and it looked like him and his even more hosed up brother had a chance. To me it sounded like Blast did significant damage to Elder Centipede and forced it to retreat, which is why King mentioning Blast's name was enough to lure it to attack. The combined ultimate attack of Bang and his brother barely affected it at all, and that was them making their last stand pretty much e: looked back and yeah it says Blast brought EC to the brink of death. Anyway trying to gauge someone's strength in this manga by comparing them with Saitama is silly Revins fucked around with this message at 00:13 on Feb 23, 2018 |

sharktamer posted:People keep saying this but I've never seen any sources. Did it just become fact through repetition? It's from his author notes mostly and his interviews quote:Point 1 was caused by Point 3 not being fulfilled for too long. From when YYH began serialization up until the start of the Dark Tournament, I had half a day off every week in which I caught up on sleep. Other than that all I had time for were occasional naps, and I'd indulge in my hobbies by sleeping less. For a while, I quite enjoyed this. But my HP (as they say in RPGs) was gradually but surely falling, and around the time that I wrote a 31-page one-shot and simultaneously had to do color pages, my heart began to hurt every time I went without sleep -- and then it began to hurt more and more often.  But specifically stuff like "locked in a hotel room" and "drew while lying on his back" are just unconfirmed rumors afaik.

Electric Phantasm posted:Does Garou get beat up as often in the webcomic? Not as often, just because the a lot of what's happened between Boros up until now is much more abbreviated in the webcomic. Everything between when Fubuki tries to recruit Saitama up until where the Murata version is now is only nine chapters long. But Garou is still the same character, with all that implies. I will say that the quicker pace does makes Garou much less protagonisty. The webcomic is more clearly Saitama's story. Schwarzwald fucked around with this message at 04:37 on Feb 23, 2018 |

It's exactly the opposite. It's added because he realized that they are basically the only 2 S Class heroes that had gently caress all to do this arc, so he went "Well poo poo, guess I better add something for them". It's not that he's expanding on something that was hinted at in the web comic, it's that he totally forgot about the two of them and thought "Hey, guess I'll do something with them now". I have thoughts about that, but well, they can wait a year for when poo poo starts going down.

Electric Phantasm posted:Does Garou get beat up as often in the webcomic? Yeah pretty much. The thing is that the webcomic version is like 60 pages shorter an update so you don't linger on it nearly as much. Him fighting Bug God and the other guy lasted like 4 pages and that was it.

Parrotine posted:The ONE version is the rough draft, the Murata is the final product The ONE version is its own thing. The Murata version is also its own thing. The only rough drafts are the ones ONE sends to Murata which we only see occasionally when Murata or ONE decides to share. ONE does the webcomic as a hobby, which is why we haven't had a single update for it for like a year...

It isn't really a radical word to use in this context. It's a weird argument to make, since the Murata version is the ONE version but with extra parts to it. So rather than Garou going from showing up and tearing a guy's arm off to waking up in the MA headquarters we see him taking on a few S-classes and A-classes as well.

It isn't really a radical word to use in this context. I had no idea people were gonna go nuts on me for using "canon".  Yeah, fairly sure canon can just mean "stuff that is part of the main text". I thought Terror Sweat meant that the earlier encounter between Garou and Saitama had been removed from the official comic. I distinctly remember one non-canonical scene before the tournament while Saitama is sitting in the dressing room. Sour Face comes in and tries to take his wig, and Saitama dodges around. This scene was removed, and a similar scene was placed in the middle of the tournament. The new scene is canonical, the older one isn't. edit: Oh, and I wasn't talking about the ONE version at all.
