Part 26:
>>280452198Chapter 139 - 141
>>280476675Love that giraffe
>>280476454 (OP)Settled it black and white?
>>280476955The mad cyborg is relevant to the plot?!
>>280477021>Jobnos...I need your strength...
>>280476470Holy shit he's doing something
>>280476600What's the difference between a king and his horse?
None, to Drive Knight
>>280476675I like that the panda doesn't cut any corners
>>280477172Maybe I'm just a manchild but I still think you can't go wrong naming a character Zero. It's never not been cool
>>280476837>long ago Hasn't it been like two months
Hey guys should I post an image during the dump? Just as a jape. I think it would be a ripping good laugh hahah
>>280476454 (OP)Did One literally just draw a machamp or is this hair style a japanese thing I don't get
>>280477079Biggest bullshit he spouted desu
>>280476955I wonder if the villages rarely see monsters because otherwise you'd have to be insane to live away from the heroes
>>280476675Drive didn't strike me as the "here let me info dump about my powers" kind of guy but I guess he is. Maybe he wants Genos' confidence
>>280477021Wonder if he'll feel the need to get Saitama's permission
>>280476577>since it's you asking I'll tell youWell first off: he didn't ask, and second: you're in front of a crowd.
>>280477404maybe he has some sort of cyborg mind reading implant
>>280477119>The appearance of the Neo Heroes is something even he did not expect.Given how much Drive Knight knows about Bofoi, I find it very unlikely that he wouldn't be aware that the battle suits the Neo Heroes so prominently used originated as Bofoitech. It's all very suspicious.
>>280476703>chess motiff>yet some are just called silver, gold, and lance
>>280477145Oh god
Is Genos the mad cyborg?
>>280476642>chess themed charactercool
>>280477422Genosbros...we are a fucking JOKE among our peers...
>>280477449Probably a shogi thing.
>>280477449It's shogi, not chess.
>>280477446If he controlled the monsters and neo heroes were a suprise to him he wouldn't let Blue get a free win. Drive knight is staright up bullshitting in this part.
>>280477449sounds like shogi
silver general, gold general, etc, etc
>>280477172Dependable sensei...
>>280477422>>280477493Saitama really expended all his considerateness on Sweet Mask, hasn't he?
>>280476772monty python has much to answer for
>>280477232Kuseno's design always gets me
>>280477172Zero... The first mad cyborg
>>280477252It's that easy to become Saitama's bro
>>280477552Why does ONE draw Kuseno of all characters so well?
>>280477543You can blame Wizardry, too, which is how the Japanese were introduced to it.
>>280476862big words for a pile of metal, I guess that was ONE's point
>>280476454 (OP)Hey, credit where credit is due, he's boxing for an A class.
People like him and Sweet Mask are carrying the fucking class that's being dragged down by bums like Sneck and Caped Baldy.
>>280477252Our FURAKING repairman
>>280477599Sweet Mask isn't carrying shit, that fucking traitor to humanity.
>>280476862I think there's some fun irony about two cyborgs calling a pure human (as far as we know) a heartless machine. Bofoi being just some dorky looking old man makes him more interesting
>>280477460>bluescreening >responds immediately to Saitama
>>280477351StraightforwardGODS
>>280477630You can get Saitama to do anything as long as you offer him a nice dinner.
>>280477664That's way too much rice.
>>280477522My busy yet considerate hero
>>280477422He had a pretty decent job to win ratio in the WC Saitama....
>>280477581He probably just really likes drawing him
>>280476955the drive knight being the mad cyborg but also not being an evil person would be a fun dilemma
>>280477493Previous page was bad but he isn't wrong here
>>280477664Don't you usually fast before these things
>>280477684You underestimate how much rice the japs eat with everything
>>280477732Not like this...
>>280477789>>280477833After 140 chapters of jobbing, Genos is finally allowed to be cool. He's served his sentence
>>280476577I love Drive Knight's gimmick. That black box is a sick weapon.
>>280477833Our fucking DEMON
>>280477899I love Tech's design
>>280477422>>280477493Damn why is Saitama so brutal
>>280477422I don't think he could've said some MORE hurtful to genos
>>280477603>Rare Genos smileKinda cute
>>280477963My HERO is testing Genos's ability to think calmly under mental attacks. If he can't stay calm here, he has no chance if Boifoi chooses to attack his mental.
>>280477422>>280477493After him seeing through Sweet Mask so easily it almost feels forced for Saitama to be acting like this
>>280477757I'm pretty excited for the manga to adapt this part in 56 years
>>280477522I fucking LOVE how serious Saitama takes the hero name victim group. It's not a joke to him, Genos' passion and Dr Grumpy Pervert's passion are considered equally and that's both awesome and hilarious
>>280478019Why did he need to fly for this?
>>280477493Jesus fucking christ, Saitama.
>>280478082I think he said his move's name after using it. He probably flied and dodged his attack first going by the panels.
>>280477999Ah, as expected of the leader of the hero name victims association
>>280478166>Remember the cope, Genos...let it it fuel you.
>>280477000G-Genos? You alright there, buddy?
>>280477374Probably has videos of him on the internet. No need to hide information that's available to the public if that means getting Genos to trust you
>>280478075>genos does some magnetic spike attack>"If he could've been able to master it to perfection he could aim for the top of the hero world"Japs really do love lines like these. Got keep power levels informed
>>280478197He's getting...Mad
>>280478220The background on that middle panel is really cool.
>>280477528>>280477963>>280478020Only reasoning I got is that Saitama's usual detachment is kinda kicking in here. He is able to help with Sweet Mask and Garou cause they were so hero adjacent, but for Genos here the motive seems to be pure revenge/vengeance, since no one seems to really be in danger at this particular moment. So Saitama is just struggling to see it as anything other than a goal to achieve.
>>280476739>he has thrown away his human sideGenos... Chances are he wasn't human to begin with
>>280478256You can't really seek revenge as a hobby (not that it's just a hobby for Amai Mask), so good point
>>280478242Genos psycho100
>>280477493Genos had it coming here, really.
Seriously, how the fuck do you still believe that a random cyborg with now-outdated tech would even be remotely a threat to Saitama.
>>280477196For ONE it's been almost 15 years
>>280477630Just a moment ago he wasn't aware Genos was bringing a guest.
>>280478256I'd also say regardless of Saitama's personal feelings, he's emotionally intelligent enough to instinctively tell that seeking revenge isn't a good path for Genos. He's just not able to properly articulate that yet.
>>280478307It being outdated just makes it brilliant lost technology from ages past.
>>280478273Thanks Machine God Speedwagon, you're making this fight a lot easier to follow
>>280478317I'll be honest. I really don't trust Kuseno here either.
>>280478329Holy shit, ONE.
>>280478329one of my favorite ONE pages
>>280478256That makes sense. I don't think Saitama sees any reason to try to be tactful in this type of situation. He rarely sugar costs anything anyway. He's just being honest. He's not gonna tell Genos he thinks he can do something that he can't.
>>280478425Genos is officially triple-dragon level
>>280476600>Human Eating DeerMan I miss Spooky's Jumpscare Mansion.
>>280478425So wait these guys are pure robots? They're surprisingly human with how they boast and jeer lmao. They literally went "what, you mad bro?"
Is Genos like top 3 in the S-class now?
>>280478459They're super advanced AI robots yeah.
>>280478461Only for 30 seconds.
>>280476454 (OP)impressive that Heavy Tank has hung onto the number 5 spot for this long.
>>280478332He thinks it's something Bofoi cooked up, whose most advanced robot jobs to a giant meteor. Genos was even there to witness it. He obviously wouldn't be able to make anything that even remotely threatens Saitama.
>>280478513>punches you so hard it tears his own arm off by the shoulderjesus
>>280478453I hope the creator comes back. The artist's games are nowhere near as unexpected kino as SJM.
>>280478485>"The Plan"Not to be confused with "That Man"
>>280477119>we'll let neo take care of the monstersFuck off, Drive "Machine God" Knight. You sound like an Organization bot.
>>280478459>he doesn't give his robots a shittalk routine
>>280478539'The Man' with 'The Plan'
>>280477449look ONE just really loves resident evil.
>>280478505He's obviously pretty strong. He's also still rank 5 after Sweet Mask was kicked out, so I'm guessing Fubuki already surpassed him.
Or maybe ONE forgot to update the ranks. One or the other.
>>280477404>>280477430In the original he says
>ๆฐใซใชใใ๏ผใญใใซใฏ็นๅฅใซๆใใฆใใใใ ใใMeaning more or less "Are you curious? I guess in your case I could make an exception and explain it". He definitely says nothing about asking.
>>280477172Machine God Zero. Lmao.
>>280477021>Genos, will you join meFirst time in his life he's ever heard anyone needing his help.
>>280478568Yep, that's my HERO
>>280478256I think he's also just being honest. Maybe it's not the most tactful way to handle things but he rarely sugar coats his words.
>>280478568You could deal with all of them before genos could follow with his eyes nigga
>>280477172>ZeroLet me guess, a Machine God prototype?
>>280478633What a fucking page, it still astounds me
>>280478633just passing through
>>280478604>>280478633Absolute kino sequence...
>>280478633YEP
THAT'S MY FUCKING HERO
>>280477351Saitama wait... we got no intrigue if you just do that.
>>280478633The casual stride never fails to disappoint.
>>280478604>>280478633>wave of enemies breaks themselves on Saitamathere's so many ways to make Saitama's invincibility look good, and this is one of them
>>280478621What kind of sensei never lets his student learn
>>280478711Would be ok if Kuseno wasn't bleeding out there
>>280478699>last Are we in the endgame now?
>>280478662So Genos 1v3 triple Dragon, then another 1v2 with (assuming) both of them also being dragon, with him using all of his powerups in the first fight? I know its a rage powerup, but still its kinda nuts he pulled it off. The 9% remaining power too
>>280478729Man Genos' life sucks ass
>>280478699>>280478729>Genos...>I prepared one last upgrade for you>please equip this photon burst emitter, these plasma missile arrays and this thermonuclear core>...and flee with them
>>280477528>>280478256He only even really accepted Genos because he gave him money, hasn't he?
They never really bonded or anything.
Genos just follows him around like a stalker to take notes and Saitama just gives him lessons super rarely because of the money and disciple thing.
>>280478685They didn't just break themselves by colliding into him. He blitzed the entire group between panels. You can see he's holding one of their heads.
>>280478729Great top panel
>>280478747People have been speculating for a while that this is the second to last major arc. It's been going on for fucking years though, so that doesn't mean we're actually finishing anywhere close to soon.
>>280478763I think he means that in order to survive in the coming world he's gonna need it
>>280477522Fucking kek, Saitama PLEASE.
>>280478699>The final hidden secret upgrade capsuleFinally... Hadouken
>>280478780It makes sense, hero association is in shambles and everything is going wrong, i bet the God shit will hit just as Tats and flashy get back except here unlike the manga it'll be good because no one will be prepared for hell
Is this the longest chapter yet?
>>280478769Oh I know, but visually the imagery is of an almost literal wave of robots crashing on him and just being destroyed. It's a visual that mirrors the narrative metaphor: Saitama is an unmovable wall that characters break themselves on.
>>280478763He probably did intend for him to use them to go after the mad cyborg, but him fucking dying and seeing how mentally raped Genos was probably changed his mind.
>>280477732It's so fucking over.
>>280478641Zero is associated with both origins, nothingness, and infinity, so he may well be the progenitor of the Machine God series, technically not a Machine God himself, but still an AI who builds further AIs to serve him while himself specializing in infinite adaptability.
>>280477725Isn't it pretty obvious Genos was the mad cyborg?
>>280478868>4 heroes for that thingThe hero association aren't sending their best
>>280478894C-Class is basically public service with a little street-level fighting mixed in
>>280478894They're mostly C class, no dip.
>>280478894I bet it's Tiger level, perhaps even Demon. Not every hero is a cheating glory hog like Caped Baldy, you know? Some of them actually produce results.
>>280478936You now remember the two fucking year wait for the next chapter after this
>>280478454ONE watched the DBZ Android 13 movie right before making this chapter.
>>280478764Theres the sparring, off the top of my head. I don't remember if it was in the WC, but in the anime I remember them shopping together and going out to a restaurant to celebrate becoming heroes. He also seemed worried about Genos in the Deep Sea King and Garou fights, but Saitama also stood up for Fubuki too. I guess you can still call Genos the closest thing to a friend Saitama has.
>>280478877No. Considering there's tons of cyborgs in this series.
>>280478936I would simply solo them all because I'm built different
>>280478936One punch man fucking SUCKS to live in, how the fuck do people survive, this world is basically apocalyptic, how do people even have 9-5's?
>>280478949ONE is brutal man
>>280478936OPM verse life expectancy doesn't surpass 30 yo
>>280478973>hasn't been active since Genos emerged>Genos consistently struggles to control his anger>never phrased in a way that precludes Genos being the mad cyborg then being fixed/recovered to be his current hero selfI'm like 90% it's Genos.
>>280478957I think King is probably Saitama closest true friend. Genos is more like an annoying little brother he feels obligated to look out for
>>280478957>the closest thing to a friend Saitama has.That'd be King.
>>280478936Thanks WC anon. I actually don't think Kuseno is dead for good. We will get at least one more perspective altering twist from him.
>>280478949It was hard, but the next chapter has one of my favourite moments in it.
Sensei. Let's split up.
>>280478936What is the realistic optimal play here?
>>280478978Tbf, it's been repeatedly stated that in the past few years, things have gotten fucked, and it's pretty recent that things have gotten hyperlinked like this.
>>280478868>NicopeenThat monster? Dragon+.
>>280478936Thanks.
>>280476703Which form is the one that turns him into a fighter jet
>>280479035There's another immediate jump in art quality next chapter, too.
>>280479026We might have had more than one mad cyborg too with each of them continuing their lives differently after their rampage ended.
HA had reports of several times mad cyborg attacked. They don't have to be the same guy.
>>280478780I dunno, we were just introduced to two new villainous groups connected to Tatsumaki and Flash. It does feel like the endgame would be the third and last long arc, but there's probably room for a couple smaller ones in between.
>>280479054I know Maruta has poisoned the whole God topic, but most likely the surge in monsters is related to that thing in some form, the monster association is only around because of Psykos who was scared of it to begin with
>>280478825I was actually just thinking that Genos' whole deal has a Mega Man X feel
>>280477172>and I felt my strength drain.
>>280479027>>280479028I was gonna say they hadn't done much together either outside of videogames, but I guess King confessing his secret to Saitama is more personal than anything Genos does. Then asking for training advice, but Saitama can actually help with that instead of Genos's cyborg parts. Closest thing I have is Genos worried about growing stronger, but that doesnt really happen until this arc, so I guess you're right
>>280478957I think the closest thing Saitama has to proper friends are the guys from the Hero Name Victims Association
>>280477522>>280479334They are colleagues or comrades at best.
>>280479038Wait for Saitama
>>280477172>Genos, remember to stop by the convenience store on the way back, there's a sale again...>remember to stop by...>remember...
>>280478231I also love it, it's great.
>>280479144>Psykos who was scared of it to begin withWas she? I don't remember that bit
>>280477078have to give the manga credit for actually giving him something to do during the MA
the cat thing, not the damn fighter jet
>>280476955What an amazing coincidence.
>>280477332Monsters used to be way less common until a few years ago. I wonder if villages just disappeared once monster attacks became commonplace.
>>280478936Thanks Anon. Jesus, I forgot how strong some of the Machine God series are. I know it's Genos but still they were not even trying and S-Class power didn't even put a dent in them until Genos went balls out. These things are nuts considering that Bofoi's super security system could only handle demon levels iirc.
>>280479314I mean I guess Genos told Saitama his backstory, although it was played as a joke. And he let Saitama meet Kuseno
>>280478539Only "The Organization" could create "The Plan" this fearsome. To oppose it we will have to rely on "That Man"
Is genos actually S rank power wise?
>>280478751I think the other two were probably demon levels considering how Genos was already on his last legs.
>>280479678Yes, obviously. He's clearly extremely strong.
>>280479678Absolutely. Has been, since he got put there. Even from the start he obviously outclassed PPP and TTM in pure power.
>>280477664>>280477704>>280477732I suspect that, Kuseno is attacked and killed as soon as he manages to examine Saitama? I suspect they might be using Saitama's data for something.
>>280478699>>280478792I also suspect that Kuseno used Saitama's data in this latest Genos update.
>>280478792So, is it safe to assume Drive Knight fed Genos the info so he would go straight to Kuseno and lead Organization directly to the lab?
>>280479144Psykos was scared by something. We don't know what though.
>>280479678You just saw him win against three Dragon threats. Are you retarded?
>>280479113Would be funny if both Drive Knight and Genos are Mad Cyborgs that are simply unaware, even funnier if they both destroyed each other's villages
>>280479678Puri Puri Prisoner is the S rank stat stick.
if you're stronger than him you're S rank material.
I'd say Genos since chapter 1 washes the fuck out of that rapist so... yeah.
>>280479903Sounds plausible. Also like the anon above you theorised, it's very convenient they waited until Saitama was asleep in the back before they attacked, too.
>>280479428She was pretty much mind raped after seeing the future. Going from a naive right hand man to Fubuki to babbling about killing humanity for their crimes.
With what we know the most likely explanation is God interfering in the same vein as manga. considering how similar her points are to the monsters.
>>280479428>Was she? I don't remember that bitShe looked into the future and went full schizo talking about how worthless humans are and they just need to stop existing and there's no value in even ruling over them.
The same conclusion Homeless Emperor came to after pondering in a park.
And after they caught her she was just completely out of it.
>>280479961That would be brilliant, especially if they found out at the exact same time, like while confronting Bofoi. They would just look at each other like "do we fight? But wouldn't that be kind of pointless?"
what a great sequence to read, getting some final development for Kuseno capped off by an amazing action scene.
>>280479961>even funnier if they both destroyed each other's villagesHow, when both of them only cyborged up after the attack to their home.
>>280479678Don't let the shitposts trick you out of thinking he isn't a beast

>>280477079It's definitely suspicious that the two strongest s-class heroes available are assigned to those mysterious missions at the same time, even Flash noticed something odd here. Does the Organization have that much influence to have connections with Eleven or the Abandoned Masses? Maybe some kind of deal? I don't know but I really want to see the pay off for all of this.
>>280480086Implanted with false memories or something
>>280477664>>280477704>>280477732I suspect that, Kuseno is attacked and killed as soon as he manages to examine Saitama? I suspect they might be using Saitama's data for something.
>>280478699>>280478792I also suspect that Kuseno used Saitama's data in this latest Genos update.
>>280480152could also be as simple as Bofoi feeding or leaking info, real or not
>>280479678Genos is 100% there in terms of raw output but his biggest shortcoming is lack of any kind of defensive martial art. If he learned a few deflective tricks from Bang he wouldn't end up scrap after every bout
will OPM no longer be the same once we witness the day Saitama actually bleed? (whether in the WC or Manga)
>>280480238>Kuseno used Saitama's data in this latest Genos update.>Bald Core. ACTIVATE.
>>280480327It's SO fucking over.
>>280476955Genos how fucking GULLIBLE can you be!?
>>280480238This would need them to know Saitama's strenght. They have been going after King since the start of the manga and never once manage to analyze him so Its really unlikely for them to change targets when they didn't even learned about King's secret.
Also I don't think the analysis was done yet alone Kuseno having enough time to create a new upgrade from it.
>>280477252What an unbelievably cool
HERO and SCIENTIST OF JUSTICE
>>280480327The only path for Saitama is OHKO God and Blast or jobbing to Blast, no way around it. Heโs not getting a fair fight because that isnโt Saitamaโs problem
>>280480327if he bleed it will be by goku's hand, which will require a crossover
>>280480350>ENTER Genos Calvo
>>280477252This guy is actually goated.
Took me like 3 hours to do the same because I kept screwing stuff on wrong after unscrewing it and didn't even have the right screwdriver so I had to buy that specific one they got.
>>280479903He might be also expecting him to go mad and immediately attack Bofoi too
>>280477630They're cooking it on the next page, so he just had it bought and frozen, not ready to go.
>>280480392Saitama vs Blast will be just like Garou vs Saitama with Saitama in Garou's position, being utterly incapable of putting even a scratch on Blast and eventually desperately begging Blast to tell him how he got so strong only to hear: It's a hobby, but I do have a proper job, too.
>>280480613Murata, please leave.
Half of me hopes Drive Knight is a good guy. I just don't want such a cool design to end up as a villain. Maybe The Machine Gods were actually just spying on Drive Knight and him giving Genos info is what accidentally put him and Kuseno on their hit list
>>280477422You know, I was thinking of signing the petition, but if this heartless baldies is the leader of the HNVA then I won't bother. What a shit group.
>>280480613>SpoilerDon't forget having a family and friends (non-work ones)
>>280480383Genos knows Saitama, Kuseno knows Genos and Genos has informed Kuseno about Saitama. Part of the upgrade may also have been prepared beforehand and just be waiting for Saitama's data to be completed, which may even be the reason why Kuseno only gave Genos the upgrade now.
Also, even if the attackers didn't know about Saitama, they could have taken the data that Kuseno had stored during the invasion, including this.
>>280480626Not him but thatโs more in line with One, Muruta would have it be a fair fight.
I feel like Blast vs Saitama probably wonโt even happen
>>280480664The upgrade is probably Genos' original form.
>>280480666>I feel like Blast vs Saitama probably wonโt even happenFuck off satan. It WILL happen and I WILL be hyped to see it.
>>280476862literally john carmack as a manga character
>>280477493Fucking murdered him.
>>280477422>>280477493No but seriously. Can Murata actually make Saitama say this shit to genos with a straight face? I feel like the characters have deviated too much in his version and this whole conversation would play out differently.
>>280477145>It's almost as if I, a cyborg, am about to go mad and go on a rampageReally, ONE?
>>280478329another example of ONEs great paneling
What would you guys think if Kuseno was even older then he looked and was like Bofoi in his youth/when he was an active player making cyborgs weapons instead of robots, but only setteled down after his creation(s) wreaked havoc on the world and he created a connection with Genos?
>>280480663He also only ate half a banana every morning.
The climax will be Saitama finally arriving to fight God, only for Blast to walk in and one-shot him before Saitama can act.

>>280480392>>280480613I'm sorry but with how Blast is in the manga there's literally 0% chance Saitama is weaker than blast

>>280480978It's more likely Saitama is weaker than Watchdog Man.
>>280480956NTA but mass replies shit up the flow of the read when you also check the replies for what the other anons said. Seperating your post is better for everyone in general.
t.guy who used to do it when he first started storytimes/dailies
>>280477522This shit is so fucking funny. The way Saitama treats his new group 100% seriously and actually behaves responsibly, always keeping the agenda in mind and being all proper about procedure. Best part is that it's not even used as a punchline, it's just a part of his character now.

>>280481106>NTALies, fuck off faggot. I don't care about your retarded autistic bullshit and if I want I will do it again.
>>280481068Blast being like a Saitama ver 0 is a pretty old theory anon. Even if it has little to no merit now.
>>280477578Kuseno's words are so touching here...
The ultimate subversion would be that Blast is just a normal strong hero. Like just a bit stronger than heavy hitters like Darkshine.

was kuseno the most mature character in the web comic?
>easily gets along with saitama by bribing and helping him
>handles genos trauma and also relates to him
>often considerate of other
>intelligent and strategical
>>280480626Murata's Blast is just superman
>>280478256The other thing is that Sweet Mask and Garou didn't want to do the things they were doing from the bottom of their hearts. Sweet Mask was wracked with insecurity about his appearance getting in the way of his hero work, and Garou couldn't be the hero who could save the kid getting picked on at the park, so they coped. Genos from the bottom of his heart wants to murder the absolute fuck out of Boifoi, and that's not really something you can cut through the bullshit of.
Now I may be a schizo but what if Kuseno actually picked Genos not from a random village that was attacked by a mad cyborg but from the ninja village that was attacked by Blast
>>280477172Kek, The cloud gag was good
>>280481508You saw village twice and rubbed your brain cells together to make that connection
>wait... genos was from a village. What's another village in this series... OH MY GOD!!!
>>280481562Yes, I'm pretty much upper B (if not middle A) rank in terms of intellectual power
I've been lurking in here since part 6 (i think). How can this be so much better than the manga? Serious question.
>>280481608Child Emperor...
>>280481652Have you only read the manga before?
>>280481287Exactly. Never seen a herring that red
>>280481608Damn you must be like... some kind of genus
>>280481287>>280481722I can't tell how intentional this is. I thought it was just a joke at first but that's not really One's style
>The mad cyborg? Aiiiee I'm going a little mad myself here, cyborg!!! The mad cyborg went on a rampage in my village? Just thinking about it makes ME want to rampage, village!
>>280481767Fuck me I only now saw the actual joke gotta hit the bed...
>>280481765Up to the latest manga chapter? Did you start reading before or after the MA raid redraws?
>>280478513Who let him get the ball
>>280481836A little bit before Phoenix Man redraw hell. Then I catched up every 2/3 years or so.
>>280478949I don't because I stopped reading here and didn't pick up the webcomic again until this story time.
Metal Bat stated that he can revive through fighting spirit. Does this section of the audiobook mean that humans with enough fighting spirit, willpower or whatever can come back to life? Garou also came back to life when he was killed.
Monsters like Orochi (who was created by ONE) who are capable of this. It seems that humans with enough fighting spirit or willpower or whatever can also come back to life.
>Genos: But that was his first fight with Kabuto and he lasted 3 minutes. Thatโs pretty impressive.
>Metal Bat: Huh? Thatโs it? Itโs over?
>Genos: You lost, Metal Bat, because the damage you sustained were too grave for you to continue.
>Metal Bat: Huh? What are you talking about? I can totally keep going.
>Genos: No, when you get injured to that extent, it is over.
>Genos: You are considered โdeadโ in the virtual world.
>Metal Bat: No way Jose. I might have lost in the game world, but in the real world it wonโt go like that.
>Metal Bat: It might be over once you die in the game world, but in the real world, a death is just a flesh wound. You can totally revive through fighting spirit and have another go, know what Iโm saying?!!
>Sneck: Eh, isnโt it usually the other way?

>>280477543needs a holy hand grenade
>>280478936Thank you for the dump
>>280480731They seem to be better friends in the manga than the webcomic. Saitama is just generally nicer overall
>>280482235>Ooh, you're a rampaging one. Borderline mad, if I, cyborg, may say so.
>>280481652Because ONE actually gives a shit about setups, suspense and payoffs, while Murata only cares about what he thinks is cool right there and right now even if it means butchering future developments and making every escalation feel meaningless.
Next chapter Genos will develop a verbal tick where he randomly inserts 'mad', 'cyborg', or 'village' between his words
What if Saitama was the mad cyborg?

Would WC Saitama react to Genos dying the same way manga Saitama did?
>>280476642>>280476600>>280476577>>280476546Oh just like in the Manga, except this came after... almost like ONE was writing it all along....
>>280482480You gotta go with the full combo there
>>280482089Well, ONE said that Metal Bat is one of the strongest S-class in terms of battle power, so that explains how.
>>280482432>now Iยดm going to avenge my best friend
>>280482529>mfw reading great OPM threads when THAT anon shows up Yes, YOU. YOU reading this
>>280482529Good idea, I'll yoink that from you
>>280479678The S class was founded to house heroes who are able to deal with demon level threats, whereas C to A rankings are based on a wider selection of metrics some of which have nothing to do with raw power.
Mad Cyborg theorists, consider the following:
>Genos' name follows the same theme and style as Destro and Elimin
>Drive Knight's real name being "Zero" follows the same theme as the Machine Gods being renamed to numbered codenames in the manga
>>280482432I doubt it would be done in the shonen angry power up way it happened in the manga, but Iโm not really sure how one would do it. Unless one would want the audience have a more negative view of Saitamaโs attitude towards his relationships by having him be unphased, I imagine he would make Saitama โupsetโ by it but i donโt know how he would make him express it.
>>280482459ONE definitely was writing the manga at the time when Drive Knight's power was introduced since that was in chapter 67 which came out 9 fucking years ago. But nice try muratacuck
>>280482941>>Genos' name follows the same theme and style as Destro and EliminSeriously??
>>280482941>>Genos' name follows the same theme and style as Destro and EliminHow? In what way? I really can't see the similarity.
>>280483445I guess Genocide, Destroy and Eliminate or something
>>280477732Dr. Light has been hurt by Dr. Willy's goons. It's time for X to team up with Zero
>>280476675I heard ONE based the panda monster around a zoo panda attack? forgot if it happened in japan or china.
>>280483181>>280483445Not him, but Genocide, Destroy, Eliminate. I didn't realize it until he mentioned either.
What if all the works ONE has made are in the same verse, but in separate universes of a multiverse? We know that Versus and Bug Ego have multiverses.
>>280483739Who cares? It doesn't really matter.
>>280483776I don't know, it just sounded interesting for me to think about, especially as they share a number of similarities.
But yeah, in the end it doesn't really matter much.
>>280476929>genos: source?>drive knight: lol trust me bro
>>280480375he became a cyborg when he was like 15 so his mind is not mature enough and will never be.
>>280477079>if it starts, it's going to be difficult to get the situation resolved until it's concluded. You must be completely ready for battle.>so don't forget to finish all sidequests you have pending and save the game before continuing.>there's also going to be a series of cutacenes so make sure you have enough time
>>280483988Speaking of which, 18 is too early, the vast majority of people at this age are still too immature. The minimum age required to attend forums like this should be 21.
>>280483988>will never be? I don't think it froze his biological processes, he can still make new memories after all.
>>280483855This would actually mean that the systems of each series also apply to the others.
>>280483687You can only get close enough within the attack range of a panda in China
>>28048415395% of his time is fighting monsters which doesn't really cover all the spots of mental growth
>>280478371Before this I was very suspicious of Dr kuseno. But i trust in this test of honor and justice.
>>280477252
>>280478825>>280479176Murata designed Dust Man and Crystal Man for Mega Man 3 and Mega Man 5 respectively when he was a kid. As an adult he has made official illustrations for classic Mega Man, including one to celebrate its 30th anniversary.
Just a fun fact.
>>280481961 You unironically in for a treat, because the next few chapters are actually great. unless you already read up to date
>>280478936 I gotta admit that I had lost a bit of interest on the webcomic during that wait, due to how much set up there was before an hiatus, but the pay off has been stellar and makes me want to read the moment the chapters drop; to bad it's only a few chapters a year sometimes.
>>280477578canโt believe there are still people listing dr kusano as a possible candidate for the organization mastermind even after this panel.
>>280484380Still, eventually that 5% will add up. As long as he doesn't die he'll have matured by 80 I'm sure. So we can't say never. Just most likely not.
>>280477552>>280477578Kuseno's nose looks like a penis
>>280477252Is this the one Saitama borrowed from King and broke?
>>280477578>Become... Like a grandsonOkay, new theory. Genos isn't the mad cyborg. Genos the persona was created after the mad cyborg killed Kuseno's family, and Kuseno rebuilt him to replace his grandson, improving upon the organization tech and reprogramming his brain to fight against the organization instead of for them.
>>280477468I think it's shogi themed.
Silver wouldn't make sense for chess, but it would for shogi.
>>280484785Yeah, I got too hyped during the Neo Heroes arc and read ahead but not before you guys spoiled me on Ryumon.
>>280477528>>280478256Does Saitama even like Genos? Or does he just tolerate Genos because he pays Saitama's rent?
>>280478949I'm genuinely curious why doesn't ONE put more effort into this? Like making chapters more frequently. This is super good and it doesn't have enough for how long it's been active
>>280477422>>280477493He's being tactless, but he has a valid point.
>>280486691because this web comic is him drawing for fun which doesn't pay. His three other works: bugego, versus and opm (manga) will sustain his financial needs.
>>280486691OPM is a hobby, literally. Mob Psycho was his professional product at the time and the story goes he was pretty busy with the anime during its production. Plus now there's versus and bug ego.
>>280482259"Oh yeah, I told him that. Wait, did I?"
>>280480731I sincerely doubt Murata will adapt this scene 1 to 1.
He'll make it more obvious that Saitama is concerned for Genos's wellbeing
>>280486842obvious as in we'll get a though bubble of Saitama going "hmmm this seems really important to him but revenge isn't healthy!"
>>280484020Kek
I need the third warning for some of the games
You know, the organization isn't really that much of a secret. You think several robotocists are former members? I was thinking what if Kuseno defected after the mad cyborg killed his family, but that gets me thinking about drive knight and metal knight as well. Bofoi could very well have founded the Organization, and maybe things went to shit when he took up hero work, or he took up hero work in response to the organization getting involed. Super reaching theory here, but all the machine gods so far have talked about getting data from powerful people, maybe Machine God Zero was built to be inserted into hero work to examine heroes and monsters. And to reach even further, maybe the mad cyborg going mad is what served as the primary impetus for the machine god series.
>>280486641yeah that was one spoiler that people have been really fucking annoying about. yes i get it you like the character but don't ruin it for everyone else.
>>280477351Do you think Bofoi will answer them?
He's harsh to CE but that's probably because he's too clever.
You think he'll just enlighten these dummies?
>>280478425Genos winning count: 9
>>280478513Genos winning count: 10
>>280478662Genos winning count: 12
For the first time in the WC, Genos's winning count surpasses his jobbing count (which is currently 9).
>>280477172When ONE puts their eyes parallel like that it really invites the comparison. Especially how often Genos has been going mono eyed in this series of chapters.
>>280486985>for everyone else.Not everyone cares about spoilers, only a vocal part does. I, for one, not only don't mind spoilers, but I actually really like them on things I haven't watched/read or watched/read completely yet.
>>280478760>Genos can't cry >Leaves the trace of destruction as if he's cryingONE!!!!!
>>280486691He gets paid for his other projects and doesn't have to deal with a very well known artist butchering the story but with good looking art.
>Started to read Versus after knowing it was story by ONE in this story dump
Thanks OP, and anon-tachi
Does anyone know where I can find that image that shows the date on which the chapters of the webcomic were released by ONE?

People who thought Saitama was Blast were far more common than this.
>>280491731Final Fantasy XIV does say that before long cutscenes. Some are around 1 hour long so it makes sense.
>>280492385This reply was meant for this post:
>>280486926
>>280487097He can no longer job, since he can't get Kuseno to repair him anymore.
Losing and getting destroyed means it's over for him.
>>280476955Genos IS the mad cyborg, that's so obvious from day one jeez... Dr. Kuseno was just too weak to kill such a young, suffering mad cyborg and just gave Genos a new life after modifying its memories or some bullshit like that.
>>280492604That contradicts Dr. Kuseno's own words later.
>>280492581I guess it would be too much of a coincidence since the enemy he just fought did it, but what if his ultimate body has the ability to fix and upgrade itself automatically with other mechanical parts.
>>280492785...Genos gonna job to robot aids....
>>280491772>Then click on spoilersI always do.
>>280486691On top of the other answers this also takes forever to make, just the final page with the robots probably took days to draw. Heโs gotta write it too. Lots of work. Could easily spend a year making just a few chapters ahead of time for release.
>>280487672>doesn't have to deal with a very well known artist butchering the storyWe can't say that for sure. Unlike OPM we've just never seen his original drafts for the other series. There's no way to tell how much influence the artists had over the final product we get.
