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.

It was inevitable, but I was rooting for you Suiryu. Though he managed to make it out without a scratch even with Saitama's move doing more damage to the ring.

Suiryu was very impressive. As a martial artist, he has been more impressive than Bang, Atomic and Garou IMO.

Is it the longest OPM chapter?

Hahaha, this chap was a blast! i loved that explanation about martial arts. Also Saitama just ran away for an unknown way that no monster came to meet him.

One Ass Man is freaking dangerous!! xD

Whew....OPM is just always on point I feel like.

Suiryu had some solid characterization this chapter, and I feel like he is destined to return later on in the series. His design is just great, dude looks badass as hell.

The action scenes were strong as they always are. Suiryu could easily make S class if he tried, and he would not be the bottom level either. Garou vs him would be a great fight considering they are both martial artists, but I would give Suiryu the edge right now in that matchup even. I doubt he could beat the top tier of S-class, as Tatsu, Metal Knight, and Bang all are a bit out of his league IMO, having seen the webcomic. How he does against the Dragon threat will hold a ton of weight in figuring out where he stands.
Saitama was hilarious as usual, particularly his description of what a martial artist is.


Next chapter I could see Suiryu fighting Gouketsu and doing alright, but getting overpowered eventually. Then I think it's quite likely Saitama will come out at some point and one shot him as we all expect. :XD

So many of the fighters chose to become monsters rather than fight. It seems only the heroes have a moral compass to seek justice and defend the weak. The weak themselves just seek the easiest way out.

Now to see what Suiryu can really do against these guys.

Wow... I wasn't expecting that number of fighters becoming monsters... I noticed that none of the heroes chose that option though. At least they have their priorities straight.

Since humans becoming monsters is even possible, I can predict with fair certainty that Garou will become a monster without hesitation. Suiryu is hyped to the max. It's time for OPM's very own Sinbad to kick some ass!

Good chapter. I hope Suiryu won't choose to eat one of these cells at the end.

It makes me wonder, what would happen to Saitama if he were to eat one? Would he get even stronger or it'd be useless?

He'd probably remain the same, his appearence wouln't even change either, for the lolz, cause Saitama as he is now is god-like :-)

Plot-twist, he already ate one without knowing what it was, and he's actually a god-level monster.

To become a monster just to defeat Saitama? What a shame. Monsters are all about raw power and speed. None of them is capable of overpowering Saitama. I don't feel good about it.
For me it's more about destroying Saitama's image as a hero. He made few of them monsters. Sad for world.

Felt like the chapter could have went for more pages?

I wonder how strong 'those beings' are. The badass one what sits on that chair has such a sick design.

Suiryu is about to step up. Looking forward to how he measures up to Gouketsu, I imagine he does better than Genos vs SeaKing. Perhaps he has to take out the recruits first.

It'll be interesting to see where Suiryu stands. I imagine he'll easily take care of the lesser fighters who just ate the Monster Cells, but Gouketsu might be a different story.

As for Suiryu eating the Monster Cell, I doubt he will. He doesn't have a reason too. It's possible, if he loses to Gouketsu, that he might be tempted, but he'll, once again, witness Saitama's power and abstain from it, wanting to pass his limits his own way.

Another strong chapter of OPM. I swear this series might be the easiest for me to read out of all the manga I keep up with.


Gouketsu being a former champion of the Super fight was pretty interesting, and helped tie back to the fact that the stronger the human is at first, the stronger the monster they become.

I like how many participants are not eating the monster cells, while some are right away. What you would think would be useless characters are getting some characterization here, which is always a welcome treat when reading a manga.

Suiryu was all kinds of hype at the end, and I am expecting him to deal with all the newly created monsters before struggling against Gouketsu. Saitama has to have a reason for a one-shot after all. :kappa

Wow. I just read "This is real Martial Arts" and it was hilarious.
"Martial Arts is Moving in a way thats kinda cool, right?"
I laughed my ass off. Seriously i havent laughed like this at a manga chapter for years.
Great Manga.

The fighting choreographies are insane:nunogasm.

I was not expecting Suiryu to lose but it makes sense. Where did Saitama go? I forgot.

Sheesh, Demon lv threats are like strictly for the Top heroes...I hope Suiryu can dig deep, get back up & secure a win...I hope
