I always meant to go ADTRW ambassador and post this in BSS, but I can't decide between posting it in the Funny Panels thread, or the Badass Panels thread.

I mean, yes, they are all humorous, but the art is badass, so...

Just make a new thread, dude.

88 chapters of the original webcomic that looks like a child drew it.

Everything redrawn is translated and scanned.

The raw of 34 is out. If you cant wait, this is an action chapter and not a story heavy chapter, so you can probably just jump right in: http://tonarinoyj.jp/manga/onepanman/34/

It's a lot of action but the dialogue is great and really important to the chapter. It's one of my favorite chapters from the original and you should really wait to experience it translated first to get the full impact.

I dunno, I sorta had fun making up my own story when I was reading the original webcomic right before a new chapter came out. Just to see how different it ended up being.

He was just annoyed by a mosquito, its not like he went all out on it.

Lets say you are some Idaho militia man with a gigantic stockpile of weapons to fight the government when they try to repeal the second amendment. Would that insane redneck use the power of his full arsenal to kill a single mosquito? Same deal with Saitama.

I really thought the Sea King was one of the most enigmatic villains of all time, he didn't need any backstory, he just started loving people's poo poo up, and Murata's artwork made him imposing as hell and loving terrifying to boot.

The slightly out of focus picture of the Seaking right after he busted through the shelter wall when the low rank heroes were fighting him was really well done as well. You could just barely make out his eyes and incredibly sharp array of teeth, it was pretty terrifying.

Are you talking about the original version in the Murata thread straight after posts saying NOT TO POST ABOUT THE ORIGINAL VERSION IN THE MURATA THREAD?

Is it really that hard?

When the title of both threads is just "One Punch Man" and both threads are talking about the same thing, yes, it is a little hard.

Its not a coincidence that theres been like 5 fuckups on the last page alone when theres almost never a problem with split threads aside from intentional trolling.

I think part of the point of these frames is to highlight the fact that both of these characters are almost always drawn comically off model.

For people who havent read the original, off model Tornado is pretty much exactly how shes drawn by One. I really liked that lil detail.

That or even just comparisons of the more amazing panels. I've been reading Mob Psycho 100 and ONE can really churn out some amazing panels even if the artistic quality is a fraction of what Murata can produce. Would be interesting to see how good the originals are.

The original is translated on Batoto, just stop reading once youve hit a chapter that you dont recognize. Itll give you an excuse to reread the comic :)

What is the likelihood Saitama ate a monster seed by accident and hit the jackpot? Or is it sacrilege to contemplate us ever being given a straight-faced origin of his power?

Until its revealed my headcanon will always be that Saitama broke his limiter with his standard weight training. He was just such a weakling that 100 pushups, sitsups, etc was enough to stretch his body to the limit and bring him to the verge of death

Before the story ends Saitama is going to have to find someone just as strong as he is, and its probably going to be Blast.

I dont really want it to happen though because once Saitama meets someone as strong or stronger than him it means the storys probably about to end

I'm going to come clean. For several months after I first got into OPM, I was under the impression that in Japan you needed a license to drive a pedal bike, and that nice boy Licenseless Rider pedaled in flagrant disregard of that regulation.

I thought it straight up until we started having this convo an hour or two ago. Although in my defense I didnt put a lot of thought into it.

Like I dont think Japan is some sort of regulatory hellhole and you have to get licenced just to put your feet on the pedals, the licence would have just been for operating bikes on major roads or something.

I've seen it all dubbed on Netflix with no issues in audio desync so I assume they did. I'm in Sweden though so it might just be a region thing.

The Dub was really good. I liked it better than the not dub.

Aside from Genos the dub was really well done. Genos was incredibly bad though.

I think the official translation uses executive? I forget. But yeah, cadre is not a common word and it makes me pause whenever I read it, no idea why they chose that one. Had to look it up but the original Japanese apparently uses 幹部 which executive works just fine for. I guess maybe they were trying too hard to separate the monster association from normal organizations?

Someone who wrote a Japanese to English dictionary in like 1903 defined it as cadre, later references keep carrying it over, and then translation teams who arent that skilled just look up the word, see cadre, and use it without thinking.

There was a Romance of the Three Kingdoms drama in 2010 or so and the people translating it used 'fatuous' a bunch in one scene and I think it has to be the same reason. Why not just say stupid, airheaded, silly, etc? Cuz the dictionary says fatuous!
