I don't know if they're better in Japan, but it's fun for the novelty once in a blue moon, but you're really just paying to eat slightly warm sushi.

CannonFodder posted:King has many powers, one of which is to sit at the booth before the big group and pick up the sushi there because there's no way any sushi is getting past that group. There used to be a couple in the city where I live but they went out of business. I guess the overhead must be high since you're making things whether they are selected or not. That means there's always going to be unpurchased leftovers

I went to a place in LA, and there is one in Seattle that I've avoided because, yeah, it's exactly what you might expect. From what I can tell, their prices are fairly reasonable, though.

In Japan, the conveyor belt is meant as a "fast food" alternative in that they are both cheaper and faster than the conventional methods for sushi restaurants. The made to order or omakase are considered higher in both price and food quality. The conveyor belt, otherwise, is the novelty for selling cheaper sushi.

There are different quality tiers of conveyer belt sushi. I went to a dirt-cheap one and the sushi was honestly pretty mediocre (but good for the price). Another one I went to with a huge line was kind of pricey but the taste was incredible, better than the fairly expensive stuff you get in the US.

They've been pretty consistent about this, it's like Dragon Ball covers.

the webcomic version was my favourite manga joke of all time. I wonder why they felt they needed to prime the joke with the nichirin scene last chap. kinda...dilutes it. oh well, still loads of fun.

I do think ONE is probably under a lot of self-imposed pressure to make these “big” moments in the manga still hit hard for the many fans who also love the webcomic. Where the manga excels, in my opinion, is it’s ability to elaborate and create more set-ups for the eventual pay-off Edit: that being said, I DO think this and the last chapter should have been combined for a continuous reading experience.

People who haven't read the webcomic seem to appreciate the buildup in the previous chapter, at least according to Reddit and a Korean scanlation site I visit. I assume it feels diluted because you already know the joke.

Felt like good setup for the gag.

What I really love about King is that he shows exactly the way every single character should regard Saitama!

# ? Jul 27, 2023 04:38 |

King having a ton of unearned credit specifically for Saitama’s kills and the reputation you’d have given Saitama if you attributed all the demon/dragon level kills he got because he just kept accidentally showing up at the right* place at the right* time is probably one of the better gags in the series. *wrong

The sheer power of KING using 0.1% of his ability.

I have read the webcomic but would agree with all that the joke lands a bit less strongly when you know the outcome but also that the set up probably does enhance it further if you don't. It, rightly, shows that KING is even greater than Nichirin, a loser who has to visibly unsheathe the sword...

Every single King joke lands for me, what an incredible running gag. I don't often laugh out loud at comics or manga but King has made me laugh at least a half a dozen times

I'm not sure how you'd read this and not think it's hilarious, honestly. I'm not a webcomic reader but I thought the contrast with the Nichirin part only enhanced the joke, making it clear just how insane
