I mean, that always was plain obvious. The only one to blame for the stoty massive downgrade is Murata, who can draw quite well but not write.

Fact, the manga/anime went to shit the moment Murata started changing everything, and that was literally after anime S1. Before that Murata followed ONE's script perfectly.

While the expo itself has been extremely shit because it's handled by westerners, the news so far have been really good
>Extra confirmation of the obvious that Murata has been writing the original stuff in his adaptation
>JoJo Part 7 is being done by Part 5's staff
>Vermilion Mask Anime revealed and it's being done but the team that did the first season of Blue Lock
>New teaser and art of Science Saru's Ghost in the Shell
>More info about the adaptation of the Kamen Rider Manga done by the Air Master guy
>Reincarnated as a Sword season 2 done by the same staff will release this year
>Bleach comfirmed for fall
I haven't watched Cyberpunk but the news of the second season seem to be a best case scenario, seemingly the japs are more involved, they aren't reviving the cast, newbie staff but still members that have worked on Trigger for years meaning that the original staff can work on other stuff while they use this as an experiment and the journalistic setting seems cool. Really the only disappointing news so far is that the Hokuto no Ken anime looks like shit.

Yes, it was specifically stated that Murata was the one in charge of redrawing the fight because "he was no happy how CE turnes out" and we literally see in the manuscript the ending is entirely different from all three different version Murata made and the entire manuscript is several times smaller than any of the redraws. Murata literally made it ten times longer

>including future developments
Hackrata doesn't know shit about the future developments of ONE's story. If you were reading the webcomic you would know

Yes. "Story by" refers to the author of the source material because he has to be legally credited even if he has no direct involvement. OPM is an adaptation, Murata is the author of the adaptation, Murata makes writing decisions in the process of adapting ONE's work. When ONE provides original scenes for the manga (volume extras, the martial arts tournament), he is doing it as a writer, not as the author of the manga, because Murata is the author of the manga and it is within his power to reject or alter ONE's storyboards.

Do the latest volume releases not even have extras anymore? Or did Murata start writing them too?

You can tell ONE got lazy with helping Murata after seeing how good his art was. Why make the writing good when you can half ass it and still collect your paycheck?

It is crazy to me that we even have these discussions in the first place, let alone keep repeating them for literal years.

I dislike the writing in the manga, it is slop to me, but I can understand the masses liking the hype, the shonen tropes and whatnot. What I fail to understand is the downright desperate defense of the manga on the basis of ONE himself being behind all the changes, as if these people were trying to convince you that the manga is good BECAUSE ONE is still the writer, rather than the manga being good simply because it's good.
If you enjoy it you just enjoy it. but with these people it feels almost as if they're scared that they'd have to renounce the manga if it was ever confirmed that the changes come from Murata, which sounds like nonsense, because if you truly feel the story is better then it shouldn't matter if it came from ONE or Murata, you'd still prefer it and declare Murata as the superior writer.

It's the completely unhinged misinformation campaign that has been pushed for years about the manga just because some people don't like it that we have a problem with.
You can hate it or love it, but don't push bullshit you know isn't true and constantly shit up threads about something you personally don't enjoy.

It started out as contrarian bait, though I genuinely think many of the posters back then who were vehemently defending the manga were actual underage autists, that felt insecure because they actually liked the shonen tropes we were shitting on Murata for.

Why are you even here in the first place, retard? Reddit is more up your way. They a banning people for the slightest discontent with the current state of the manga, so you can "discuss" it there all you like. Also the OPM manga threads are completely dead now, if they are not just shitflinging like this one, even waifuspamming can't save them

You know, we've been over the narrative missteps Murata is responsible for in the manga, but I'm still disappointed with the fight choreography for the Garou vs Saitama fight. Even when I had given up on the story, at least I had expected the fight to look cool. But it was just DBZ tier puch harder slop. Even ONE's version felt more dynamic.

>So you admit the tournament arc that ONE wrote and was manga original was bad then?
No, I liked it, but some people thought it was unnecessary. Back then manga original content was just adding meat to the bone and didn't change the main events of the webcomic, it was decent to good quality and unmistakably ONE's writing. The only redraws were cosmetic ones and the manga had a consistent release schedule. You are either disingenuous or a newfag if you think the currently state of the manga is even close to what we had back then

That's just on the OPM subreddit. I'm sure whatever autist mod that oversees that place come here to argue. But the manga subreddit has pretty much given up on the manga as well.

Saitama farting himself through space is exactly the kind of shit ONE would write. Face it, the idea that Murata was writing clouded your judgement. If you knew for certain ONE was writing you would love it.

ONE would write Saitama farting, but he wouldn't have written anything else that happened in that arc. He sure as shit wouldn't have written Garou killing everybody or God or time-travel as a cheap narrative device.

Some people get weird when a series shits itself. They're never the most invested part of the audience, because that group is far more sensitive to dips in quality and often turn into the most vocal critics. Best explanation I can come up with is that the apologists are people extremely concerned with following trends and having "good taste", and they're upset because they failed to read the room and now find themselves as the underdogs having to elaborate on what exactly it is that they even like about the OPM manga.

Pretty much. Back when it came out, I saw the content of the tourney and little invasion as simply more setup for the MA arc, while taking the chance to give screen time to some characters that wouldn't appear in it, like Metal Bat, Watchdog Man and Drive Knight.

I will say though, that I did notice some cracks forming even all those years back. Specifically concerning Garou. Even back then, completely ignorant of what a shitfest the manga would eventually become and still very much optimistic and hyped, I was already wondering why they were softening Garou so much. A few more interactions with Tareo? Sure why not, nut the fight against the A-class group went so far to suck him off as a tragic anti-hero that I had to do a double take.

To me, the exact moment the manga becomes irredeemably shit is when Psykos fuses with Orochi (and then the Phoenix Man and Orochi fights get retroactively ruined through redraws), but I have to wonder if MUrata was already shitting up things with Garou's character much earlier, or if this change ACTUALLY was ONE's doing.

But this one in particular is Murata's old idea, lmao. And ONE as an actually competent mangaka wouldn't write it, not because it's le fart joke, but because it's a tonal disaster in the context Murata used it
>If you knew for certain ONE was writing you would love it.
Stop projecting, you deranged fanboy. I would simply question ONE's talent. But that would be physically impossible for him to be this bad, knowing his other works. It's like asking 'if Togashi wrote Black Clover, wouldn't you love it then, huh? Got you there" It's a totally meaningless "what if?" only someone with an iq of a Murata fan would come up with. If someone wrote something another person did it would be different

one dipped out of the project and the editors pushed the writing onto murata and since he's a corporate cog he didn't say no and picked up the workload like a fag
onefags who want to push all the blame onto murata are retards

Honestly, yeah. It's pretty unprofessional for ONE to just dip and leave Murata hanging like that, if that's indeed what happened. I guess ONE never expected OPM to take off like it did.
