Saitama going from yelling in agony, then smash cut to his silly-drawn face saying "there I'm adjusted now" might be my favorite thing the manga has done in a long time!

Yep, it looks like the humans sacrifice monsters who sacrifice orochi.

This and some of the previous redraws and additions make it pretty clear god isn't a good guy

That was a really cool redraw. I agree Saitama is on the verge of becoming too goofy there (It's like he's channeling Bugs Bunny or something) but the rest was pretty neat

Enough with the redraws imo

No.

From now on, Saitama will only show up in the redraws. The manga will progress with the hero association moving onwards to new adventures, and we will only see Saitama 3 times a year, when they redraw earlier and earlier fights. When Vaccine Man's fight is finally revisited, only then will we know peace.

I am hopeful that the latest chapters already reflect the new continuity of the redraw (e.g. Pig God saving the disciples and mercenaries from Evil Natural Water, and Zombie Man from Homeless Emperor; showing the altar when Tatsumaki finishes off Oorochi), and maybe (hopefully) the major redraws remaining will just be a few more chapters in the next volume.

For this latest redraw, it seems like at least part of the motivation is to provide an exciting and satisfying end to season 3 of the anime. In that regard I would say this is a pretty good improvement.

If orochi died on the altar then how did Tatsu fight him? If he didn't die then that kind of messes up the impact here.

Ah, so that's how we find out Vaccine Man really was the strongest, by killing Saitama.

Yea in the previous version Saitama stops Orcohi's monologue and tells him to apologize for being noisy under his house and Orochi is like "finally someone who i can go all out on" and Saitama punches his dragon heads until finally rocket punching through Orochi's chest. I like the redraw to change it so saitama 1 shots him instead of Orochi taking a bunch of punches to various body parts.

The biggest thing the next redraw needs to address is all of orochi's goop which gets everywhere from him exploding.

This chapter sorta kinda makes you sympathize with Orochi. His backstory seems to be pretty horrific, and the fact that he thought he was destined for greater things, despite actually just being fodder for a higher power is sort of tragic (disregarding, of course, that Orochi himself is absolutely irredeemable). I don't know what Psychos' whole deal is, but she seems like a complete psychopath given the scope and scale of what she did in creating the monster association.

Actually now that Orochi got got like a few miles further into the bowls of the earth then before I guess Murata is going to go back and redraw some more chapters to explain how his blood got all the way back up to mess with Pyskos. He's not even been blown to that many pieces.

I wanna say there's a panel where you can see a chunk breaking off Orochi to serve as foreshadowing/set up that thread.

The squirt gun was a brilliant joke. I get why someone would think Saitama dicking around like that kind of conflicts with his character, but I can't help but love the creativity.

I feel like the whole redraw was done because that idea popped into Murata's head and he couldn't resist. It was a very good gag

e: in general though yeah I am not a fan of the redraws but Murata can do what he wants, this is the only anime/manga thing I still follow at this point since Miura died and it's because the art is just consistently so dang good

ONE is the one writing everything how many times do I have to reiterate.

ONE gives Murata freedom to expand fight scenes (like Genos vs. Elder Centipede) but most everything else is first drafted by him and if he doesn't like something Murata will all but fall over himself to correct it. Like in the Garou vs. Metal Bat fight Murata initially had MB ricochet a sewer cover back at Garou, but ONE said it didn't fit his character so Murata removed it.

Initially Murata had the sewer cover hit Garou after being ricochet between several objects. ONE said that MB wasn't smart enough to do that, so it was changed to MB just hitting it away.

If, during a game of baseball, you hit the ball so hard it literally explodes, shouldn't that be an automatic home run?

Don't need to aim if you can just obliterate the ball every time

You'll never persuade them about his. I have repeated this to the same people for years.
