There doesn’t seem to be a manga specific community out there so I figured I’d ask here. I’m currently caught up with the most recent Murata chapter and wondering what kind of interest there would be in discussion here when the next chapter releases

    I’d love to see some actual discussion of the manga rather than endless posts about the psychic sisters. Just read a fan translation of Chapter 185.

    spoiler

    It’s interesting to see a couple of S-class heroes actually trying to work with some surviving members of the Monster Association. I feel like Flashy Flash and Child Emperor never would have tried going to a monster for help prior to this arc. The strategy before now was simply “eradicate”. Between that, and what we see is happening to Darkshine’s confidence, it’s nice that some side characters are developing and showing signs of actual character growth.

      The endless Tatsumaki/Fubuki posts are specially annoying IMO because people treat them less as characters and more as why-foos. It’s rarely about their impact on the plot, or their characterisation, or even their dynamic as imouto vs. onee.

      on your spoiler

      heroes asking monsters for help

      I love it. Yet another case where Saitama changes something without even thinking on the consequences of his action. It’s great as character growth for them, but it plays nicely with the theme of OPM - “you can change the world by being a good person and doing your best”

      Darkshine

      As typical for shounen there’s a comic vibe on his confidence going down, but for me the guy looks genuinely depressed.

    I am.

    Main event up to ch183

    The main thing is the fight between Saitama and Tatsumaki, that takes a few chapters. He gets that Tatsumaki is trying to protect Fubuki, but that’s the wrong way to do it, by forcing Fubuki to disperse her group.

    I’m willing to discuss the next chapter, as I really like OPM. It’s also a neat way for me to even know when the scanlation for the next chapter pops up.

    I haven’t read it in a couple of months so I’m a little behind. I’ve really gotten into reading manga again recently so I’m hoping to catch up soon. Id love to see more discussion topics on here

    I’m currently caught up on both the manga and webcomic, but I think it’d be really sick if there was some sorta manga specific community out there cause I find myself reading stuff more than watching things.
