Yeah I imagine having to wait 9 or even 12 months for tanks instead of getting 2-3 per year caused a lot of people to drop the manga. We even know it did, because you can literally see it on the sales chart, exactly where the delays caused by Phoenixman and Orochi happened (and some readers probably also stopped buying tanks there because the redraws were worse than the original online chapters).

Wouldn't say it turned into "dogshit", especially compared to most other things, but there's two things that definitely robbed it of its early charme:
1. The redraws and more importantly rewrites of older chapters. Often for the worse (and to accomodate recent webcomic chapters even). But the general problem is that it made following the story hell. Not only did it make it more difficult to remember which parts of what happened were still relevant and which ones were retconned, changing stuff like who's alive or dead or changing characters, their traits and arcs. It also meant that what you were reading right now might not be relevant anymore at some point in the future.
2. It stopped being just a parody and started taking itself way too serious. This is true for the webcomic as well, arguably even to a bigger extent.

The webcomic is still good but I felt a decline in the manga after the Boros arc when the tournament filler arc began. The point of no return was the awful adaptation of the Monster Association arc and the constant redraws, padded out fights, ruined humor, and changes to the writing/scenes that didn't seem major but ended up making the characters less compelling. Murata's the Ryu Nakayama of OPM.

Webcomic is way more sincere than the manga, the manga is what made a joke of the Garou/Saitama battle. People ran with the whole "OPM is a battle shonen parody" shit and are unable to accept that it was never really that concrete.

That wasn't a rewrite. You could argue that Do-S was "saved" in a rewrite, but even then there would have been ways to bring her back without rewriting her death chapter and giving her revival powers. There was the fucking Phoenix fight that also brought other characters back.

It really hit for me during the kid emperor vs phoenix man fight. Wasting months to redraw and expand a fight that didn't even exist in the webcomic.
I stopped closely following the releases after that.
Garou fight was the last hope for many here, but the table, the space bullshit, and the time rewinding just for the zero punch joke was awful.
I completely stopped reading both versions after that. If ONE is approving these changes, he's just as bad.

Murata doesn't actually need ONE's approval. He got it when he originally acquired the legal rights to adapt OPM with Shueisha acting as a publisher. This is the part that a lot of people don't seem to understand. ONE is not in constant contact with Murata supervising every single change and exercising power he doesn't have. Most of the time Murata is on his own, referencing webcomic updates ONE made years ago.

I really don't believe ONE cares that much about what happens with the manga.

Saitama’s strength and disillusionment with other character’s backstories is the only “subversion”. There’s clearly sincere attempts at action and character development even early. One punch man as the entirely parody and gag manga you imagine it only exists in like the first dozen chapters. Stop being allergic to sincerity, just because the characters are goofy sometimes.

Yeah and despite being based on tropes they’re never being “deconstructed” whenever they get screen time. Does leaning in on being silly and poking fun on shonen mean there can be absolutely zero serious storytelling or action and it has to be Dr slump? The manga did an arc full of what you want with the tournament and it’s nobody’s favorite because having Saitama jadedly one punching someone and interrupting their backstory after they underestimate him over and over again without the rest of the cast to help create intrigue and stakes gets old fast. The only reason the scenes with kabuto, sonic, and hammerhead work is because the story plays it straight and allows you to get invested even if it’s stereotypical.

Nothing needs to be "deconstructed" for a parody. Those things are subverted tropes for the very reason that they are tropes, but not played straight like other genre series would do them.

No one ever said that. Read my post here:
>>283286004
>the problem is more that it stopped doing the thing that made it a parody
I.e. it can do as much serious storytelling as it wants, but as long as it does comedy via subversion, it is a parody. When it stops doing that, it isn't anymore. And it definitely doesn't do it in a significant way anymore. Now, you can argue that that's not a problem for you because you never cared for the parody aspect that dominated the start. What you cannot argue is that it therefore never was a parody.

LMAO. What webcomic outcomes? The manga is entirely different story as of now, that takes inspirations from the webcomic on a surface level.
And don't you see a fatal contradiction in your own logic? If it's ONE still writing the manga why would there be a need in the first place to redo the past chapters to be inline with the current webcomic story that is years ahead of the manga? He already has the fucking story. It's only Murata's fanfiction that constantly contradicts the original and itself, can do a U-turn literally the next chapter several times, because there's zero planning involved.

Yes. Are you trying to tell me ONE would force Murata to redraw volumes worth of content because he suddenly decided AM is le good now and didn't know it preemptively while writing MA arc? The retcon doesn't "redeem" AM: he still tries to kill the mercanaries, his previous violent deeds are still there unretconed. He didn't even need redemption in the first place. Only Muratard whose brain is corrupted by western comic book movies thinks that every hero needs a flawless reputation while in the webcomic AM even in his latest arc considers sacrificing civilians

Well, let's take the example I gave before: A character that's painted as unsympathetic getting a redemption via the main character stating an unexplained and seemingly unfounded opinion. That's not consistent character writing, is it?

He gets redeemed narratively from trying desperately to save others and giving up his need to be seen as beautiful after speaking with Saitama who calls him human (whether he was listening or not). The narrative rewards him by having Saitama appreciate and recognize his efforts and give him will to live even after his truth is revealed. He’s not even that unsympathetic, he just hates monsters and villainy. Genos even comments on his ruthlessness towards evil and says he reminds him of himself before he met Saitama. I don’t get what’s inconsistent, he just got more onscreen development to show he isn’t one note. Any other specific examples?

Why are characters not being one note evil and having depth and surprising the reader from their judgments inconsistencies? How does it come out of nowhere? He thinks Saitama had potential to be the “ultimate hero” because of his strength, and got obsessed with the prospect because he didn’t think he could fulfill it as himself. What makes you say nothing before it matters? He says himself that he thinks his monsterization is progressing and he might cease to understand what it means to be human.

Oh, I'm sure he's intentionally giving characters compltely new traits out of nowhere in the middle of the story. Doesn't mean it's good writing.

The aliens aren’t “innocent” as we know of them. They helped genocide the entire city and are clearly not regretful about it and are just surprised they got beat. He’s just ruthless towards evil. Morally grey at worst at the point. And like I said previously Genos says he reminds him of himself a bit later after he does it, calling him eager to exterminate evil and saying something bad probably happened in the past. Clearly trying to put in our heads that he isn’t completely one note.

It's even more gradual there. Mostly because the fights never become very detailed and the general pacing is quicker, so it's less about anything being too dragged out and elaborated on, but more about the parodistic and subversive elements getting dropped or receding into the background more and more over time. By the time the webcomic got to the Monster Association arc, it had already been streamlined to where the only thing that still was subversive was Saitama's titular one-punch.

Whether or not he was in the right isn't what I'm arguing. Can he not grow as a character beyond this one action? All he has done up to his redemption in the story is being ruthless towards monsters (he hasn't attacked another human) and being upset that the other heroes don't strive towards his ideal vision of a hero. How is he ruthless in general that you can believe the story presented him as 100% evil with no possible chance of character development.

That's just the side effect of Murata being a shit writer. But no, the fanfiction in this case is determined by how the adaptation misunderstands the intentions of the original work replacing it with something else. ONE would he still be the writer of the adaptation couldn't posiibly missunderstand his own fucking story. And also by factual evidence like ONE's tweets, story changing it's course completely with each redraw, which couldn't possibly happen with a designated writer, whose job is writing and preplanning the story.

>changing the story to such a degree would mean that the adaption was going to be completely faithful

The premise was good but it really didn't warrant more than 3 arcs. Writers these days are taught to extend things out as much as they can and it just turns to shit after a strong start.

Arc 1: season 1, it was good and it even set up some mysterious that could be used for future arcs. I don't remember now but it should have ended with him becoming a official high ranking hero
arc 2: After spending all of season 1 trying to finally get recognition he gets some. However he realizes this doesn't make him happy either and he still starts to seek new goals to reinvigorate him. In this arc a new big bad villain is introduced from the beginning that he will defeat at the end. Inbetween, antics ensue
arc 3: after realizing in season 2 that his role as a hero shouldn't just be self serving he now uncovers the conspiracy plot of the other heros in the heros organization. This season is about uncovering the conspiracy and dealing with it.

After the third season long arc in which he was conflicted in feeling duty bound to be a hero despite not enjoying it but also finding a reason to continue he realizes he continues because of the friends and super hot loli psychic gf he made along the way. The manga/show/ ends in one final gag because it never should have been anything more than a comedy anime.

People complained about the tournament because it delayed the MA raid (in hindsight, LMAO) and gave panel time to a new character except everyone likes him now that he's part of the webcomic. Also people complained that Saitama doesn't do enough in the MA raid but the tournament is bad somehow even though Saitama plays a bigger role in it.

No. But Murata’s fanfic is far more hated than ONE's filler
>People still complaining even when Murata is drawing a completely faithful chapter
Can't just add a berry on a shitpile and say it's good now
>the manga and webcomic are two completely different stories
It wasn't always like that. A few years ago the webcomic could be considered a draft, while manga added meat to the bone creating a full fledged story.
>why wouldn’t you simply believe that he’s writing both differently
I understand writing an improved story, but the one that is worse? Why would someone do this?
>And if Murata took the reins why is the story not drastically different as your eve been led to believe?
It is. But Murata lacks the creativity to write a story of his own from scratch or alter it significally. That's why he took someone else's work and changed it according to his tasteless preferences. It's by literal definition a fanfiction

Does that ultimately still not make him crying after his final gambit gets outclassed immediately not a subversion? I’m not saying it isn’t valid for him to react that way.

Why would he still be writing the webcomic and posting chapters for free more than a decade later if he wasn’t sincere? Why does he consistently draw pages and pages of detailed shots, genuine attempts at action, and try to develop these characters if it’s all completely ironic? Why did he try to make saitama a grounded character by having him be bored with his strength instead of just making his personality a gag and having him constantly break the fourth wall. Is the concept of an overpowered main character too strange to imagine that he genuinely cares about the story?

Genuinely what is there to get attached to. The arc gets between sonic and flash gets hijacked by Blast, we get introduced to his partner who turns out to be mind controlled by god and then they leave.

Also giving the characters developments they weren't even supposed to get at this point in the story, which renders their personal arc meaningless afterwards. Hackrata can't help himself not blowing the load too early every fucking time
>Now this is proof that there’s no point in arguing here since you sure do love praising One’s shitpile of art but will criticize Murata no matter what happens
How exactly is that a proof of your schizo rumblings?. It's just common sense to consider good writing good and shit writing bad no matter who's behind it. And it's you who're clearly hellbent on dicksucking Murata while dissing on the author of the original without any proper reason so far, so nice projection

People aren’t really angry at Murata for misusing his talent but rather for using his own fanfiction to meddle with the original story. I think most people here wouldn’t mind if some amateur adapted the webcomic as long as it was done faithfully.

Idk man, my fav part about it was when they were comparing Genos to all the other fighters, and how he basically mogged them in most aspects. (They fucked this up in the anime btw.) Otherwise, I felt it was just kinda alright, not super exciting. Goketsu became a nothing too which sucked

I don't agree at all. He's the most level-headed good human. In the olden days he would be the chief that the people go to solve conflicts.
Are you talking about the manga?

Plot twist: ONE's gonna have Saitama off-screen God and move on to other arcs after all the the effort Murata spent hyping God up to be this ultimate final boss of the series.

You need to prove it’s Murata changing the plot and come to terms with the fact that the MA arc was always garbage. Extending most of the worthless fights is nowhere near as bad as you guys pretend it is

Okay does no one giving a fuck about MP enough to make a civil thread about it sound better to you?
>Not just extended, completely changed with every good part from the original removed or put in the context it doesn't work in
Yeah seeing all those one-shots and wasted characters was pretty cool
What good is extra screentime if it's badly written? How was it badly written? If One said he wrote you would’ve liked it though and giving the characters developments did not render their personal arc meaningless afterwards
>It's just common sense to consider good writing good and shit writing bad no matter who's behind it
Except for when it’s a faithful to a webcomic chapter you retarded bitch. Take One’s tiny dick out your mouth since he’s not going to scribble out a chapter for you

>clearly One retconning it
Clearly to Murata's dickriding fanboy? How is it clear again that ONE did? The fact the retcon came after the AM arc in the webcomic only proves Murata doesn't know shit about the future developments of the original story. Same thing happened with Ryumon too. It also doesn't explain all the other retcons that followed like phoenixman and orochi fights. Those changes are completely unrelated to the webcomic. They were just rewritten in a typical Murata's style and made worse
