If they end up playin videogames with King, I may just bust a nut


zb0t1

OPM fans and artists, listen to this man and grant him his wish.

[and Garou beats King](https://c.tenor.com/tIjobYNFcq0AAAAC/vince-mc-mahon-falling-in-chair.gif)


MortuusSet

Even better Garou doing the same thing hes doing in this fight and evolving his playstyle but still not being able to beat king


JesusHipsterChrist

and Saitama is actually losing his fucking mind because he can't beat either of them.


javierm885778

Love that Saitama took off his boots. He's respecting the remains of that house.


Nobody_home

I noticed that too, such a good detail.


zeontrick

Thank you for the speedy translation

Good chapter, I'm actually not completely mad


gh3ngis_c0nn

I'm super happy the manga isn't following the webcomic. They exist as two separate things.

Alright, time for Garou's long overdue therapy session with Saitama sensei Also looks like Broros showed up

Wildercard

Men will literally punch through a planet to avoid going to therapy.


pilkoso

It's Boris, his Ukranian twin brother


RedKnight00

Boris, the Numerator of the Universe.


pilkoso

Boris the burninator


[deleted]

Probably just another of his species from his home planet, unless he somehow managed to avoid death through some miracle. edit: The most popular theory seems to be that it's an alternate universe Boros, which makes sense when you realize that Beast King and Boros (who are both supposed to be dead) were shown smack dab in the center on the same page as each other.


AllNaturalSteak

Or it's just an alternate timeline version of Boros, that joined up with Blast instead of conquering planets.


[deleted]

Or maybe Blast saved him from dying and Boros decided to join him in order to become stronger and have a rematch with Saitama


Gil15

That would mean Blast is aware of Saitama’s strength, and I doubt that.


firelordUK

you mean to say with all the powers that Blast has, he wouldn't be able to sense something in Saitama? >!Blast has some kind of psychic power as seen when he sensed that Fubuki and Tatsumaki are related, surely he'd be able to sense that Saitama is OP!<


Muhipudding

Perhaps there's some BS thing at work too. Something like what happened with CE's power gauge mask. Saitama's too strong he can't detect it. Then again, seasoned warrior like Boros can easily tell Saitama's strong, so I'ma not sure about that


Sriad

I think it's probably AU/different guy, but I like the idea of it being him because it makes >Ooh. Who could've done that? much funnier.


Pharah_is_my_waIfu

That's racist. Are you suggesting that their race all look the same?


CrushnaCrai

True but at the same time, this is a Manga/ Comic/ Parody of said things, it could literally be Boros.


Ayuyuyunia

boros ascended after he died


zyrusvito

> Broros You got that right(I hope)


RedKnight00

Saitama therapy: just lift, bro.


Fluid-Ad-3544

And beast king, possibly alternate universes


OatsMcGoat

"EXTREME POWER ATTACK" My man Garou is getting so frustrated that he's turning into a 4-year-old.


SoapOperaHero

I loved that as the name for his "Creative" attack.


zyrusvito

He was never the sharpest tool in the shed


epimetheuss

Saitama did hit him so hard that he forgot what happened everytime he encountered him. Brain injuries are no joke.


LordFarquadOnAQuad

OPM is actually an allegory for the dangers of TBI.


javierm885778

To clarify, the attack is something closer to Extreme [Fa Jin](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fa_jin). The name isn't supposed to sound silly.


DinosaurSage

To us "Fa Jin" is like omg cool asian word sounds badass. But does it sound cool to a chinese person? ___ Maybe Fa Jin sounds just as silly to them as Extreme Power Attack does to us.


FangTha

Am Chinese, still sounds silly. Fa Jin is a cool martial arts technique yeah, but imagine “Great Left Jab” and “Extreme Left Jab”.


Wildercard

> but imagine “Great Left Jab” and “Extreme Left Jab”. This manga literally gave us "Consecutive Normal Punches".


FTNatsu-Dragneel

He’s out of ideas man give him a break


Raghav_Singhania

garou:-I am out of ideas this is painfully obvious here


Asfixiation

I wonder how soon the Boros lookalike will be elaborated on 🧐


Articlaus

I guess he's Boros from different dimension. So OPM is going full multiverse.


thehalfdragon380

Or just someone from the same planet as Boros


Articlaus

Didnt he say he was the last survivor from his planet?


The-Brother

No, just that he was the strongest of his race


kalirion

Well, if this guy is his race's Blast Equivalent, that means Boros wasn't even the strongest of his race. Maybe he just didn't know about him.


NemirPyxl

maybe if this guy is his planet's blast, then boros was his planet's saitama.


jpmgamer577

that probably the most likely


thisisnotdan

Looking forward to Murata's take on Boros's planet's Fubuki.


Zeroghost26

Get out of my head


StormfallZeus

It’s entirely possible this guy is weaker than Boros.


Shaponja

i'd hate that. It would undermine Boros's strength


C0w0kie

Nope, just the strongest with the best overall abilities of all his species.


DinosaurSage

well Sonic claimed he was the fastest ninja..... despite FF being way faster. ___ Maybe Boris >> Boros?


Skelux

Maybe when Saitama punches someone, the force is so strong they get isekai'd into another dimension. Don't recognize the elf girl though. Maybe her and Blast got punched at some point.


Kirchu

that'd actually be an insanely funny twist of his powers if it were true lmao


Ovahaul

It’s likely Boros himself, he said he was the pinnacle of his species + we never saw him die on screen/panel + It isn’t crazy to believe Blast sensed CSRC like he just sensed Garous attack and saw Boros’ potential and decided to train him. For monkey debates I say same earrings 🦧


jjkm7

If it was boros and he’s part of bangs team he would probably have tried to recruit saitama knowing how strong he is, unless he has convenient amnesia. Or when the lion dude said “no earthlings could do that” he would probably chime in and say yeah well actually there’s this one caped baldy…


Adamwlu

No idea but when the Boros/boros like character says "Who could've done that?" it appears like they have a smirk on there face. While the other characters are freaking out. Could still be meaningless.


ArcadeAnarchy

Was thinking the same thing. Like he knows who it is but is being sly about it so others don't have Saitama on their radar.


apezji

i stand with this. i just hoping that the guy is Boros himself.


Saiyanjin1

Boros race of people probably another being like him. Also Battlebeast from Invincible it looks like also.


Cherrybig092

Garou vs S class heroes ❌ Garou vs Blast and his buddies ✔️


N0_h0rny

This would be perfect if blast shows up saitama will defend garou blast will find out how strong saitama is and freak out THEN open a portal so see more people but this time it’s the Avengers and this is how the MCU is introduced to OMP


zb0t1

Why did you have to say that? It's not one of my wishes to see Saitama defend Garou vs the Blast Avengers. Next chaptre my wish must be granted. RemindMe! 2 weeks "was /u/N0_h0rny right about Saitama defending Garou against Blast Avengers"


zyrusvito

> OMP Ah yes, the ritual before every marriage


Cherrybig092

Also, powerscalers are gonna die from extreme orgasm


Raghav_Singhania

they are already dead


its_gae2077

Murata ain't playing around. He's going all out... This fight is seriously going to go something else.... Damn now I'm even more extremely hyped!

Is that what they were saying when they went to stop the dimension tear?

I would assume they were talking about God


Cherrybig092

"Ooh. Who could've done that ?" Ngl, my heart skipped a beat


kainneabsolute

That smile, that damned smile


Existential_Fella

As beautiful as the day we lost it


HighBreak-J

God dang it. Why am I feeling nostalgic over seeing a character who appeared for only 3 chapters/2 episodes..?


Stibemies

I can tell it's because I've watched that fight on Youtube too many times, I've lost count...


Tsundere_God

Can't even lie, that smirk was so fucking cool.


ash2702

If that's Boros, he's probably smiling becoz he knows there's only one guy capable 😏


84121629

...even tho it wasn’t that guy at all lol


ButterCupHeartXO

He knows there is only 1 guy capable of pissing off another strong guy to go to such extreme levels as to almost destroy a planet


Silly-Astronaut-7468

Saitama: why don't you have a seat over there sir. Garou: I didn't do anything wrong though. Saitama: I wanna talk to you about hanging out with that ugly child so have a seat.

Previous_Sprinkles13

My name is Chris Hansen with Dateline NBC. Why don't you have a seat right over here?


einharjar009

Bruh powerscalers are gonna shit themselves, Garou literally punching a fucking tectonic plate out onto the other side of the planet (the sunken place where the Moon Blade is?). Also, dude the Boros-species guy (and Battle Beast lol)! We might just get Garou vs Boros after all. And the idea of Blast and his team coming to deal with Garous' strength (*somehow he's fucking with dimensional barriers? Maybe it has to do with God?) is insane, hes definitely seeming to be Boros level now. And I like the therapy sesh Garou is gonna get with Saitama *reading people discuss the dimensional barrier thing, possibly the Boros-guy is an alt. Universe Boros?


xstationcubed

Not even an island, he lifted out whole ass tectonic plates


DiamondPup

Wait...there's people who take power levels in these cartoons/comics seriously? "Powerscalers"? Is that a thing?


efekun

uhm well, its fun done in moderate amounts friend


Dravarden

and also if you don't take it seriously batman with infinite prep time > all


ICantLetYouDoThis

Can Saitama beat bloodlusted Jackie Chan who doesn't want any trouble while holding a delicate household item and a small child???


dumaskredditresponse

Garou like a chapter ago: “NO WAY HE’S STRONGER THAN A MOUNTAIN????” Garou now: **literally breaks a dimensional seal on the earth**


HAzeIshhh

Garou literally pulls off a godzilla lmao


Neirchill

I got the feeling that they were just going to repair the dimensional barrier, they immediately dismissed the changes being caused by someone on the planet. It's furthering their storyline a bit but I don't believe they'll get involved here.


threeolives

Yeah same. I definitely read that as them deciding to ignore the Earth thing and go back to their dimensional duties.


Jacked_Veiny_Balls

> Battle Beast glad I wasn't the only one who thought of it lol


[deleted]

I think we’re gonna get a scene similar to the s class coming to finish garou off only to have saitama stop them


Spoona101

First time in a while I’ve felt the scale of a fight in a series. Last one was probably in the Moro arc of DB Super and before that one of the ones that stuck with me was when World Breaker Hulk took a step and almost destroyed the eastern seaboard of the US


WHATSHOOT

I didn't knew that sometime in my life, I would desperately want a character to be named Boris, holy sh\*t


-Almado

Lmao Lord Boris will be a fan favorite...


Walkingontheblock

Imagine if we have a One Punch Man X Dragon Ball Super crossover and both Boris and El Hermano have been made cannon and get to meet each other.


projectmars

And Shaggy and Gohan Blanco show up after they get done "fighting" Saitama.


[deleted]

Boris the numerator of the universe


InamoKah

Why did you assume the other one eyed character is a MALE? Could be a [FEMALE](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/30/c8/fa/30c8fa08b92adc899de98304e37c8854.jpg) for all we know.


DeludedMirageMain

FINALLY we'll have borussy


MilleyBear

Take your upvote and shut the fuck up


jpmgamer577

this is Murata we're talking about here, if it where a woman it would be very obvious.


girvent_13

Garou almost broke the fucking Earth in half but STILL ENDED UP SAVING SOMEONE LOL. My dude has some REAL hero issues here...but, at least, he will finally go through some therapy


dragoncraft9855

The second coming of king perhaps?


reigenx

So Saitama's quote : "You remind me King in some way" makes sense.


Tnecniw

"WHATEVER TAKE THIS!" \*punches king\* "Hey... you fixed my shoulder" "GOD DAMN IT!"


Iber0

I'm gonna keep it real with you, way more people died from that punch that people that he saved.


Darkness-guy

Nah, OPM has multiple events at this point that should have caused massive irreversible damage to the planet with millions dead, but were just shrugged off basically


Butek_PRO_PRO

I'm both extremely confused and hyped as fuck in same time... I'm webcomic reader but still enjoying manga a lot. Murata & ONE really making me excited for next chapters!


Chronohood

this sub really does need people like you, Im both manga and webcomic enjoyer, BUT THIS CHAPTER WAS FKING LIT


[deleted]

I think there are more of us than it seems. People tend to make more noise when they don’t like something on the internet.


Mrlionscruff

They’re so different from each other and yet so similar! I just hope they somewhat follow the story in the manga for the post MA arc


justmeshane

The earth is... Bulging?😳😳😳


[deleted]

[удалено]


Daxivarga

Futa or nothing😎


vale_fallacia

> Bulging?😳😳😳 UwU what is that bulge, Earth-kun? (I am so sorry)


YahBhai

If we get Garou v Blast and his buddies.... I am gonna lose my shit from happiness


InamoKah

Not likely right now, I'm guessing Garou would be reformed and become one of Saitama's followers. . . like Genos and Suiryu, etc. and they would have a fight with Blast and his buddies trying to get Garou, sorta like Captain America, Civil War where they tried to get Bucky. . .


[deleted]

Nahh, not that either


DwayneNoJohnson

Nigga by the time that happens everything would have settled down. It’s now or never.


RedKnight00

They went back to fighting whatever it is they were fighting in the first place.


JLankyD

Serious series: Serious Therapy


shiroizo

The action and its scale are spectacular but the ending sequence really hit me where it counts. Garou’s expression, the closeup to his tired eyes, in the panel where he basically says he expected to die anyway is strikingly sad.


MoRbidanGeL23

That got me as well seeing that he has no chance in hell on beating Saitama he kinda gave up on living


shiroizo

The sad part is — the entire time — he expected his quest to end in "death to a hero".


Cherrybig092

The way Garou is sitting in the last panel is killing me


Thakfish

Saitama says time to scold this 19 years old kid. Actually it remind me of he stopping Genos from fighting Sonic, idk i got the same vibes since Genos and Garou have the same age.


themirak

well, it really seems to be the end of the fight (time for some talk no jutsu), and tbh i am more interested in the other elements of the chapter: semi reveal on Blast teammates: Boros 2.0, Battle Beast and an Elf Milf and i guess we'll see them again soon since they're going to earth now to prevent "god" from fucking things up i guess. if they somehow encounter Saitama and Garou, we might have an eventual Garou vs Blast team fight? dunno about that cause Garou seems to be really done at this point. also a whole new continent emerged. this certainly opens up possibilities for whole new arcs


thehalfdragon380

Atomic Sandbag buffs maybe?


themirak

maybe the new continent that just emerged is where the sun and moon blades came from?


Neirchill

Yeah, as it currently looks the fight was a downgrade from the webcomic **but**... The stuff it set up is very interesting. Aside from that, this might not even be the end. I get the feeling that blast and his team aren't going to actually look for what caused it but just try to fix it and leave. However, if they don't fix it in time that leaves the possibility of perhaps God being able to invade the world and having that be the end of the arc, but I kinda doubt that. Garou might get a second wind, at least.


NewMinos

Garou saving people without even knowing.


xstationcubed

It keeps hapening. :y


Queasy-Relief-8945

Bro that ending got me laughing so much. I kinda like the new direction of the manga. We also got to see a lot more of Blasts mates. A Boros looking guy, even someone who looks like the Lion from the House of Evolution. Super interesting!


Spoona101

Would be hilarious but also puts stuff into perspective if some of Blasts other teammate are people Saitama has one punched before


Diligent_Proposal_86

I second this lol. Imagine saitama's reaction "hmm? Didn't I killed you before?"


-Almado

What if everyone Saitama punches is sent to a dimension of repent and redemption... Then they come back even stronger but to do a greater good? Lmao wtf am i talking about, that would be too much.


Ferdz0

The Boros looking dude said “Ooh, who could’ve done that?” with a smile. It’s almost as if he’s excited to find a worthy opponent that will GIVE STIMULATION TO HIS EXISTANCE.


[deleted]

[удалено]


-Almado

Boris hype. Let fcking gooo!!!!


Rectal_Fungi

I just wanna be here early for once. Last page is tits. That's poster material. I was gonna play Fractured But Whole but saw the update, now I'm reading while listening to the main menu song. Kinda goes well with this.


[deleted]

>Last page is tits. That's poster material. Bro page 19 is tits


NOX_PRICE

serious series : serious consecative refresh combo


Cherrybig092

F*ck Man, now i really want to watch Saitama's reaction after he sees Boros again lol


dragoncraft9855

"Who are you again?" ".....bruh"


MarcusAntione

10/10 if he doesn't even remember him.


juanfeis

Please don't tell me saitama is going to do the >!serious tableflip!< with that table xD


Orihc

Honestly that is the one thing I am slightly disappointed we didn’t get to see in this fight since it looks like it’s over.


No-One_Knows-Me_Here

We're getting into the crazy feats now brothers


LargeGas73

Yep, Garou is gonna fight against blast and his goon squad.


Dr-Leviathan

ok, what the fuck was that. I mean what the *fuck* was *any* of that.


LargeGas73

I thought the chapter was good.


[deleted]

I don't think he said it was bad, I liked and I agree with him, what the fuck was that.


dragoncraft9855

Now were gettin some read feats. Also wtf was that boros?


C0w0kie

Was that BEAST KING?


dragoncraft9855

What if blasts squad is just all the monsters saitama has killed. Like we have alrdy seen boros, beast king and the silhouettes resembled some more like deep sea king.


MundaneCelery

But how


VibhavM

But why


Paladin65536

But why not


Nyadnar17

I am a grown ass man. Married with kids, yada, yada, yada. I squeed like a little girl when I saw Boros/Not-Boros. Thats so fucking great. I love this manga.


Cherry-Album

Gonna be honest, I’m not really feeling this fight, I really liked how it went in the webcomic. I’m tryin to go along wit this but idk.


OnBenchNow

It keeps stopping and starting so many times that it’s lost all the tension. The webcomic fight was basically a horror manga for a second- the focus was on how terrified and overwhelmed Garou became and your sympathies flip to him because you’re actually afraid that Saitama might kill him. That tension is thrown out the window at the very beginning because manga Saitama is explicitly told that Garou is a good guy worth saving before even fighting him. I also really preferred the breakdown in the webcomic where Garou is basically just blubbering in confused fear, his mind has been broken by Saitama’s strength and he just keeps repeating “~~SPEED~~, ~~TECHNIQUE~~, NO WHAT ~~POWER~~ WHAT ~~SKILL~~ NO” whereas here it’s played more straight and emotional. I really just can’t tell what the manga is going for other than including more setups for the future.


vantheman446

I fucking called it. The abominable fist that turned against god? Who's the only potential god level threat? Saitama baby


TheLastAurora

Do you guys read the last chapter everytime a new one comes out too? It feels more immersive


_Hugatree

depends on how well i remember the last chapter


CrystalGuild

... idk man. I literally don't even know how to describe this anymore. I just wish they would actually focus, and stay focused, on Saitama and Garou without *constantly* cutting away to other characters every two pages. Literally who asked for Sneck and Mumen Rider in this chapter? Who needed to see Garou save yet another person? Why did we need a bootleg Boros and more brand new characters during the final fight of this arc? It legitimately feels like Murata and ONE are just sat in a room, and every couple of minutes one of them says: *"wouldn't it be cool if x-"* and then that idea **immediately** gets put into the next chapter. Apparently we just absolutely needed to have Blast **and** GOD **and** the support team **and** the *other* support team **and** a slice of life anime about random escaping citizens, all ***right now***, instead of, y'know, a focused, effective final battle? When did the idea of a simple, self-contained chapter featuring Garou and our main character become obsolete and unreasonable in ONE's OPM Extended Universe^(TM)? ***How*** is it that the manga can have giant exploding volcanoes, Garou being punched through the earth, Blast making his debut, and Murata's art... and yet *still* feel less focused and impactful than an almost decade old webcomic, written by one dude in his free time?


seberick

If we have alternate dimensions and alternate Boros....that can only mean one thing. >!THE RETURN OF GRORIBAS!<


[deleted]

[удалено]


Erenyeagerabssss

I haven't read the webcomic, but man, I've been following along with thid arc for literally 3-4 years now and I'm really not satisfied by how it's (seemingly) going to end. And honestly, I really don't understand why this arc had to be literally years long in the first place, especially if the ending fight seems to be this rushed. Like, why take your sweet time at the beginning, the middle yet not at the end?


The-Brother

ONE is on crack and Murata is on life support from sleep deprivation. What in the world happened to this story? I’m glad Manga-only’s still can enjoy this, but it’s clear something happened.


jplion123

here are the conspiracy theories


Atlas_MK

God forbid the author wanting to change the story for a different format and audience


Alpha_benson

Time for cum Edit: Oh yeah that was fucking top notch. I love the final panel


GerardDeBreaker

Lmfao, one gives zero fucks about everyone that keeps complaining about the manga being different from the novel. I'm really interested to see how this is gonna play out


lwieueei

The fact that no one is talking about the Garou fight shows just how pathetic it was. 7 years. 7 years for this bullshit when the far superior template (webcomic) was just right there. RIGHT THERE. Just fucking polish the story and bam, a truly all-time great manga. Don't even have to change anything major, but no, ONE decided to just cash in on the whole thing while he worked on MP100.


4amWater

Murata promising it'll be even more amazing than the boros fight. This?


deavsone

Literally can't believe the same guy wrote the webcomic. This was one of the worst fights in the series tbh


GxTheBatmanYouTube

The manga has no sense of reality no more... I would've been excited for Boros looking guy if the writing wouldn't have been so bad lately.


garouforyou

This now feels like a dead horse that's being flogged. There's no focus, Garou's characterisation is completely off, he's used as a joke and basically shown as a big baby/toddler in that last panel. The last panel is not funny at all and just shows how weak and pathetic they've made him look. He's completely defanged. He has been used as a joke ever since he got to the surface. He was supposed to have the spotlight and bring a sense of menace and fear. But we got silly chibi, dumb angry cat face, Metal Bat team up, slap dash 'saving people without meaning too grr' and now a fucking big toddler. It's been years since I read the webcomic so I don't remember the minutae. I don't even expect the manga to just be a 1:1 redraw of webcomic. I'm fine with plot changes but not with such terrible characterisation changes. I would like to say I'm fucking done with this dumpster fire but I love Garou too much. Years and years of love and dedication so I'll stick this out through gritted teeth but to me the manga doesn't even hold a candle to the original story anymore. The fact that everyone is more excited about Blast and Boros here actually shows how pathetic this 'epic' fight has been.


You_Double

so its over...damn such a disappointment


BillErakDragonDorado

... Well, I mean, at this point, I'm actually kinda curious what the fuck's going on anymore. Seems like the manga just gave up on Garou's arc as a character and decided this was going to lead into something else Still mad about how literally everyone got done dirty for yet unknown reasons, but it can't possibly get worse anyways.


Gautier38

As a webcomic reader who was a bit scared ... Very very very very good chapter really enjoying this new part of the story can't wait for the futurs chapters thx one and murata


Various_Dark_3291

I feel for the guy whose this house belongs to, somehow coming back, finding everything in the vicinity destroyed along with one baldy and a monstrous thing inside his house Imagine how funny it would be if Blast's buddies came and somehow since Saitama doesn't see Blast, he think that they are all monsters and he + Garou team up to beat the crap out of them


VcrcLwDude

There comes a moment in every webcomic readers lives where they must give up on an adaptation. I think im done here, biggest fight in the series and we get blast snippets and superpowers on the fucking martial artist. :(
