No idea why I clicked this thread, but I started this comic and it's hilarious. And now that I go back and look at the original art it's even funnier.

I don't know what's more epic. Saitama biting the sword in half in an epic panel, or him looking like he was drawn by a five-year-old while karate chopping Speed to death.

The drawing is best.

Murata also drew short extra chapters for the volume releases, and Boon is doing them as well. Here's the first one, for volume 1. Nameless Bicycle Commuter :allears:

Boon
Batoto

As an aside, Boon has noted that he's going to stop scanlating OPM once Shonen Jump Alpha's releases catch up to Japan. I checked out the translation of the first chapter that's up on Shonen Jump's site and it was more or less accurate if a bit dry. So there's that, too.

That was some enjoyable backstory :D

Ah, alright. In that case, yeah, a lot of the S rankers are "dude who can hit you really hard." Some of them aren't, though, so I think you'll find it's a nice balance. When Murata finally gets to them. Which will be... I dunno, around 2 years from now if his current pace is any indication.

There's that much content? drat.

Well, there's 88 chapters out and counting.

Murata updates at a pace of (nominally) 2 weeks per chapter, sometimes splitting one of ONE's chapters into two, so if we assume that he covers 20 of ONE's chapters per year, that's still around a year and a half until the first scene where S rankers actually do something major.

I don't know if I should wait or read the original (if it's translated).

The thing is about the bad artists is that if they take that 'Heart behind it' seriously then they'd work at being better artists. the difference between them and murata is that murata works day in day out to improve while the bad artists probably dont.

The same with anything really. The best have worked incredibly hard behind the scenes for years on end.

I need the conclusion to this meteor business soon.

Just marathoned through this manga in a few hours, I'm glad I discovered it when there wasn't a ton to catch up on yet. I wasn't familiar with any of Murata's work before this, but drat, the man can draw. I love the constant juxtaposition between super detailed badasses and clueless cartoon Saitama.

The best part about the Rank B heroes will always be that Tank Top Tiger manages to be considered a worse hero than all of them.

Also, question for the people who have read the original: when do we get to meet Metal Bat?

Was he some Baseball star that was so good he became a hero?

(one) Chapter 60

Various monsters get their poo poo wrecked by the hero association it seems the eye guy in charge tried to match them up with ability but probably a bad idea, I like pig god at the end just shoving the great food tub into his gullet like "no"

[url=http://www.batoto.net/read/_/181900/onepunch-man-one_ch61_by_anonymous[/url] Also Chapter 61[/url]

Darkshine is going to be sweet in Murata's version, and Class A's cannot compete it seems.

I blazed through all of this yesterday. It's like Christmas. Can't wait for Murata to catch up...or reach this point.

Saitama getting punched in the back of the head to utterly no effect was the first time that trope has actually made me super pumped in nearly a decade.

I agree about Licenseless Rider getting the credit. I want Saitama to accidentally bump him up to S-Rank by the end of the series.

I think Saitama already did that with another hero you see later, which is ridiculous.
