I like pretty much everything about this chapter. I'm also in awe at how they managed to make Bang, his bro and Genos look awesome despite Saitama. Also King to the rescue! But why was the king distraction even needed? Saitama is faster than Speed of Sound Sonic.

Very consistent ending, Saitama usually has no idea how to kill monsters in a safe way

I feel more than anything this chapter buries the idea that Blast is Saitama. If they were the same, not only does that repeat Kings gimmick, it makes no sense that centipede would dream of revenge.

monsters don't escape from saitama, and even if elder centipede had done so somehow he sure as heck wouldn't want a rematch.

I don't understand why anyone thought that Blast might be Saitama, after we got introduced to King properly.

Only reason I still held a suspicion that it might be, is I suspected maybe Saitama had a memory loss, but it's just not adding up at all now.

This is just my opinion but I don't think Saitama being Blast as a gag would pay off. We already have that joke with King, and Blast as an actual character makes for a more interesting carrot-on-a-stick in the story. We need more pieces for an endgame and I think Blast could fit in it somewhere.

Let's all take a moment to contemplate how much better the manga is right now compared to the middle of the tournament arc.

If the tournament had been released at a pace like this it wouldn't have felt so slow. Conversely, one reason this chapter was good is it came out all at once.

Yes, if every monthly chapter was 100+ pages, the pace wouldn't have felt as slow.

The tournament arc would have been a high point in most other action mangas. Alas, it was in this one.

The only reason the Tournament arc seemed slow was because the updates were IRL slow. If you binged it it had fine pacing.

Or is that supposed to be  ?skaianDestiny posted:The only reason the Tournament arc seemed slow was because the updates were IRL slow. If you binged it it had fine pacing. It's not really the pacing as much as the lack of any good jokes. The tournament consists of about ten really straightforward fights ripped straight from Yu Yu Hakusho or whatever. I distinctly remember the first actual joke in months being part of a bonus chapter.

This chapter retroactively makes Metal Bat somehow even more badass.

Basically, to beat a pompadour boy to the title of best boy, you have to be a special exception, such as "being Arataka Reigen". The best boy multiplier on "being Arataka Reigen" is times infinity, incidentally. Josuke Higashikata fucked around with this message at 17:47 on Dec 8, 2017 |
