I haven posted anything for some time and would like to know how the info that comes from the original and hasn't being already relealed in the redrawn version is handled here? I haven't read the original comic and don't want to read spoilers. Please. Thanks in advance.
As ONE's series is ahead of Murata's please simply label and include any discussion regarding the Webtoon in spoiler tags.

I've just found OPM thread!
The most remarkable quote of the chapter to me was: 'It's senseless to try and hold duels with one who has strayed from the true path'.
A hero shouldn't go and say that, unless monsters and evildoers are in the true path too!

I've a question: Why it was stated something different with Charanko (supposedly) style when everybody knows he's Silver Fang's disciple?

Saitama's yawn was too much, just saying boring could fit.

Anyway, it was better than previous chapters, the talk in the council and the monsters cells was splendid.
Always good to see more people discussing the greatness that is OPM! lol :verily

The chapter was strong as usual, and might i add it seems like Murata is really putting in work right now.....36 pages! I love this dude. :hip

Damn Atomic Samurai is a savage! Like basically everyone is in this manga it feels like, with the S class heroes at least, but still dude cuts down a master swordsman who had been enhanced no less.... He is clearly one of S classes best for sure. Now it appears his group is rolling out to attack the MA base just like Drive Knight as well. They will soon know where it is too with Metal Knight's Robot still active as i thought. The Monster King looks so boss every time we see him too seriously, Murata is too good with his art (I know i say it everytime but it's true).

The Tourney is now down to the final match and this is HYPE. Like seriously i cannot wait for this battle, even though i know Suiryu has no chance against Saitama lol. Gouketsu is likely gonna crash the party before the fight i would assume, but still should be interesting. We seem to be getting to the end of this manga original arc now, i am loving it though and it makes the webcomic make more sense and now the manga will be even better.

Nothing to complain about really other than no Garou Vs Watchdog Man again....:gwahMurata be saving that it seems till the end, or he is trolling either way i cannot wait for more as usual! :super

Good OPM chapter, I´d expect Suiryuu to give Saitama a reminder of Martial arts power, also, It´s gonna be interesting to see if Suiryuu is gonna be around once the Saitama vs Garou fight starts, there might be a lot of discussion regarding "strength" as well there, eitherway if the fight proceeds for sometime, I´d like to see Saitama using a new serious series move to win.

Garou vs Watchdog man will probably be switched to after this fight.

If Suiryu wants to impress Saitama he should use more than kicking moves. Saitama is strong but he lacks technique.

Awesome chapter! I like how ther'rr talking about being strong. But I guess it will be switched back to other scenes or there may be monsters interupt this match. I wish I guess it wrong because I wanna see the result. I wanna see can he make Saitama feel a fun.

His specialy are clearly kicking moves, plus kicks hold around 3x more power than punches, so why would he do so? I understand that Saitama punches will still overpower suiryuu regardless of his kicks power boost, but there really is no point in Suiryuu trying to impress saitama, if his specialty are kicks, this isnt a guy like Garou who can just copy and perfect a huge number of martial arts, but rather a genius that slacked off in his training, I dont expect him to have much more to show, he doesnt even do mentions or showcases other techniques from other martial arts as well and only said so far that he had a master, giving off the impression he only worked on one martial style.

Now I do expect him to pull some leg based moves on Saitama, but he will still lose eventually, unless the fight is just interrupted and we have him face another monster, there´s also the scenario where Garou sees him and copies his technique, so that he will display more kicking moves against saitama during their fight this time around since in
He mostly relied on punches against Saitama and it got boring after a while, plus as a martial arts genius, he should know he´d had a better chance at using kicks with more power against Saitamas, punches, that would give Garou some extra points in the fight

I worded it badly. I wanted to say more counters with kicks because pure offensive kick attacks can't really impress him.

Damn Murata is putting in work, this man is too good. :worship
Solid chapter as usual, but more of a warm up than anything clearly. Suiryu is clearly much like Saitama, which impresses him. That panel of Saitama saying Suiryu might be different than the others.... Was HYPE. Not a lot to say other than that for this chapter, just more good characterization for Suiryu.
Now that we are past the warm up we should be getting some really good stuff in the coming chapters with this fight, and Garou vs Watchdog Man hopefully.:super

Such a tease of a chapter, but it provided an awesome page:


It was good though to see an interaction and mutual recognition by the two of them before they really go at it, so that they don't hold back at any stage. Wonder how far Suiryu can take Saitama in this fight...

That chapter almost had me in tears with the teasing. Pretty hyped for the fight. Suiryu is clearly powerful and I'm eager to see the extent of his strength. I really really hope a monster won't crash the party after all these. That would be really painful

Oh my... apparently i'm the only one who isn't hyped. I can't see Saitama losing here and nowhere. He's just invincible but it was a good work for a tease.
It was a great chapter because makes you recall about what happened after Saitama's training, the fun was extinct and only boredom splattered his face, no matter what. Perhaps Suiryu will friend Saitama after all this, unless the cells come to play.

I'm sure next chapter changes to somebody else.

Neither do I and I don't think that's what most people are anxious about here. I think as readers if I can generalise, we're just wanting an opponent that can allow him to cut loose a little so we can see a better extent of his strength. I don't see Saitama being seriously challenged until maybe Garou, Orochi( I really hope) or Psykos.

I like the characterization for Suiryuu, he is definitely a compelling character with some great dialogue and a kickass character design. There are either one of two routes Murata can go from here, the first route would be for Saitama to comedically OHKO Suiryuu which would be funny cause we just had an entire chapter of set-up and talking each other up, but also a let-down for that very reason. Alternatively Gouketsu (monster who stomped Genos) breaks in right before Suiryuu launches his attack and we get a Gouketsu vs Suiryuu fight in which Suiryuu can actually show his stuff (since we know that him fighting an intrigued Saitama will lead to nothing but a one punch victory). I think the latter is much more likely to happen because we know Gouketsu is going to attack at any moment and the only one who is potentially at his level in the stadium is Suiryuu (Saitama is leagues stronger and everyone else is leagues weaker), so logically speaking to see what both Gouketsu and Suiryuu are capable of we see a fight between the two (a fight which Suiryuu will likely eventually loose and Saitama will come in to one-shot).

Regardless murata has rarely disappointed with OPM, I look forward to what comes next.

Garou will more than likely get monster cells and become a formidable opponent for Saitama. He's already strong for a human, imagine if he gets those cells in his body and he's already calling himself a monster to begin with.

Suiryu doesn't know what he's getting into, he's done for. :hi

I doubt anyone is expecting to lose. I'm personally just interested in seeing how far Suiryu can take Saitama

Yeah, I doubt Suiryu's going to get Saitama to let loose. On the flipside, Likewise, I also think we're not going to see Suiryu's full capabilities either. We already know their match is most likely going to be halted, so that's one thing that'll hold them back, but Suiryu has also mentioned that he's neglected his training for a few years. It's highly likely that that won't matter against Saitama, but given his personality, I can see him wanting to not fall behind Saitama, despite them not concluding their fight.

ONE Webcomic Spoilers, aka not the "well drawn" one, so beware:
Just like when Saitama went against Tatsumaki who was still recovering from the damage she got during the Monster Association arc. She was clearly not at her best and running on fumes and Saitama wasn't even fighting back. ONE is keeping her full capabilities in the dark like Saitama and I think that's going to happen here with Suiryu.

So I wonder what's going to happen to deny Saitama his recognition this time lol. He'll either completely wreck Suiryu and Charanko will get the money and the credit, or that Gouketsu guy will interrupt. Still, I hope we'll get to see what Suiryu's made of before either happens. I'm wondering where he fits power-wise. Garou beat S-Classes when he used the Flowery Watcher Sock Splashing fist (lol), but he spent time analysing them first and neither was that one-sided. By how he oneshotted A-Classes Suiryu's obviously at least similar in level, plus Garou's advantage was using skill against guys who typically just smack monsters around. I'm curious how they compare.

Also, I wonder if there's anything to the fact that Suiryu's style is called Void Fist, yet he's only actually used kicks so far.
