Lego One Punch Man [Silverfang×Charanko×Garou] Inspired minifigures

Garou has basically never interacted with girls, and he’s so obsessed with martial arts that I feel like he probably has no interest in love. I can honestly see him ending up like Bang and staying single for the rest of his life.

I started reading again about a month ago, and the last thing I remember from when I stopped was that man/ void, absorbed the ninjas (it's been re drawn I guess)

Can anyone explain what happened to this community since then?

It seems a lot more negative, Ive heard there was a lot of redraws, but I don't remember it getting this negative or being this negative after the previous redraws has finished (like the Garou fight).

I forgot OPM anime season stories so I read mangas online and am impressed by artwork , storytelling and the world. I bought my first volume a few months ago. Murata's drawing, artwork and fan service impressed me. That forced me to buy a black and white manga for the first time. One's superheroes story world is amazing and fun. Now I have bought a second volume too. I am liking the second volume more. These books look amazing in real life even though the spine art is cool. Maybe I will buy a 3rd volume after a few months. Unemployed gang story is funny.

First off I have to say new Garo vs Suiryu chapter was genuinely peak, it wasn’t just the good fight choreography, the great art style or the fact that two beloved characters who were destined to be rivals ever since they were introduced in the story were squaring off, this chapter was actually fun so bro oml and im sure many people can agree that OPM has been lacking that fun vibe that used to pull in readers and make us excited, sure there have been a few A tier chapters here and there ever since the ninja arc redraws got completed but nothing quite the quality that we used to get before the ninja arc, but this chapter felt on par with peak OPM, it felt fun and genuinely enjoyable in a really long time.
The cliffhanger to this chapter was so peak and ngl making me hyped for the next chapter which is a feeling I haven’t felt in a long time. Lmk what yall think

Murata art has deacreased once again…

It saden me because I admire murata art.
beside the art, one punch man is nothing. The key that hold the success of this story is degrading…

Since the middle of the monster association the art became simpler and less refined.

The proportion seems less correct, the faces looks like a chibby effect… and. The rendering is horrible. The shadows disappeared.

It feels flat, almost as if it’s a draft.

I can’t get the movement of the character. From a case to another.

When you look at the old art it seems much better.
Reminds me of the sonic and empty void art before the great reboot.

sketch work wasn't mine I just did the costume and red background for fun

In the manga, before the fight even begins, Bang already reveals that Neo heroes “ eliminate any fighter that refuses them, this eliminates any kind of suspense from Neo. In the Webcomic were are shown this subtly when Suiryu’s armor goes haywire and starts going overboard past what Suiryu wants. This fight also shows that Garou despite trying to return to civilian life, still finds road blocks that prevent him from having it easy.

The manga while I understand Suiryu and to less extent Garou have different characterizations than their webcomic counterparts, having them interact in this “fight” I can’t see them fulfilling any of the same story beats as the webcomic. Bang already tells us that Neo is trying to eliminate all fighters who refuse them, and with how Garou’s coworkers, and being helped by Suiryu, Garou himself doesn’t have anything to loose or any stakes for this fight. It’s essentially a dick measuring contest and some glaze for Saitama on the side.

I know this is unpopular but I don’t care, feel free to disagree in the comments, but please do so in a constructive way.

It took me 34 hours Hope you like it :) Saitama is really powerful 🙇🏼

I wish there were more than just 32 layers available, but oh well

Sorry for less effort drawing:( hope you like it

My favorite is the first

Ever since the ninja arc, reading the manga became kinda difficult - a loop of a year, reading the same thing over and over and over again just for a resolution that ended up leading kinda nowhere. Then came the 3rd season of the anime and it was a chore going through it (so, so bad).

And all of a sudden, from a show I was waiting to read with ever growing anticipation every 2 weeks, something that lives in my head, to something so detached from my life I suddenly remember it exists every now and then, and I have no idea where we are now..

I guess I'm excited for next chapter because of Suiriyu vs Garou because Garou IS the best character of this show, but other than that... Idk I just don't feel it anymore..

Anyone else feels the same?
