what.
I have no idea what schedule this thing runs to because it seems like we go months without a chapter and then theres a run of what seems like a chapter every 2 weeks.

The schedule is "when its done", pretty much. Its web published and not in a magazine so being irregular doesn't matter as much. In theory it's supposed to be bi-weekly, but in practice its had much longer (and shorter) period between releases.

There is almost always something released every 2 or 3 weeks. Just that sometimes for about 3 months those releases are all chapter redraws

According to a Reddit thread I found it might be Mugetsu Ichigo.

It's probably harder to tell cause Ichigo's mouth is bandaged up in his Mugetsu form.

Was genuinely wondering how Murata would be able to give the same impact to that scene as the web comic did but I guess I shouldn't have worried.

This is supposed to be a comedy series and those panels of God on the moon are some of the most terrifying imagery I've ever seen.

Now it does seem like God can change how big he is since he's much smaller in that meadow, but I don't know if he'll want to shrink enough to fit in the apartment.

Yeah as spooky and cool as that scene was, the whole time my eyes were drawn to the big crater Saitama made. Like, our boy did that. You're not that scary compared to him, God.

I guess? How would we know? We've barely seen him wake up, give and take someone's power from a quarter of a million miles away. Dude's (probably) literally God and can do lots of stuff that isn't just the pure unstoppable strength that Saitama has.

Why are we talking about Caped Baldy when considering strength, anyway? We just saw that god took away all his champion's powers in fear when the guy even thought about challenging King. I think that sends a pretty clear message.
