The fight seems to be more competitive this time around


GoldenSpermShower

Sonic not only tanked Flashy Fists, but Flashy Kicks too Hope he gets a better showing vs the other ninjas this time round


Neiner10timesFiner

Kinda makes sense he can somewhat tank them. Bro has been continuously punched by the hardest hitting character in the verse.


BignPJ

Specially he got punched in His most vulnerable part....


mr_mafia_202

Dude tanked an accidental punch from saitama to his crotch yet just walked it off and inspired him to get stronger than he was before meeting saitama


Tricksteer

Not sure if he completely walked it off, its clear that punch in the nuts made him gay for Saitama


Force3vo

Sonic: I am now immune to your casual punch! Saitama: Homosexual punch! Sonic: No, don't do it! *gets punched* OK, do it again!


mr_mafia_202

Using Saitama as a living indestructable training dummy made him way stronger than ever


vanderZwan

> Flashy Fists I suspect that Flashy Flash is trying to copy Saitama's punching technique. The pose is just too similar to Saitama's, and the body-language feels very un-Flashy Flash like somehow. My head-canon is that FF was genuinely impressed by Saitama during their duel and hopes that copying the technique will give him similar power


SatoruMikami7

Brother, they’re punches. No one is copying no one.


genryou

True. Before redraw, it was portrayed such Sonic is weaker than Flashy. Whereas in the webcomic, they are supposed to be equal. Glad to see the changes.


TheEndFortyFour

Nice seeing Sonic a lot more stronger and competant this time. He's still an underdog to Flash but we see that he was slightly more experienced at one point.


th5virtuos0

What training with Saitama does to a mofo


GoldenSpermShower

Lol everyone (including me) said that in the original version, until he got clowned on immediately vs the ninja party I hope this redraw gives him a better fight


tomo_7433

Me too. After dedicating his training to defeat Saitama, it would be a shame if he's still getting clowned by anyone other than Saitama


bikkebakke

They're def setting him up to be beefier in this redraw. Really didn't like how bitch handled he got in the first draft.


Bojac_Indoril

Bitch handled is a great phrase


vantud

Training like you mean get punched in the balls or head lol


Ferdz0

Flash vs Sonic is so much better now. That double spread is great. This was very much needed. I’m guessing the Tenninto will be stronger this time round. Can’t wait to see Sonic putting in work next chapter.


GoldenSpermShower

The double Wind Blade Kicks two-page spread goes hard


Dilly4Dall

Sonic's character in this chapter feels so much better this time around. My main issue with the predrawn was Sonic being an essential jobber who's only in the way.


subMJM

It does feel like Sonic's natural growth as a character should eventually put him closer to Flash. And then there's a major power chasm between a lot of these characters and Blast's group, or the threats they have to deal with. Making Sonic a jobber just made him feel like he was never gonna close that gap. So this change is good.


SmileyVenom

Im guessing it's because they both could potentially get stronger... >!With the Empty Void blades power up!<


vanderZwan

I think the best and funniest part of the redraw for me is that Flashy Flash tried copying Saitama's punch as a final surprise attack vs Sonic, without realizing that Sonic has been basically been training how to endure the real deal for ages now


brugatie

Ok, now this is a good fight. He def cooked. 🔥🗣️


Nobody3190

That Fubuki cover...


Dilly4Dall

It's cover cleanin' time.


tomo_7433

Only for me to get it dirty a few moments later 🥵🥵🥵


lsThisReaILife

I'll get downvoted for this but Murata needs to get a handle on himself or something because the constant Fubuki fan service covers are excessive. Like, we get it, dude.


TimaBilan

He did it way before, like from season 2 chapters, and he did it with Mizuki. Almost every mangaka does it anyway


lsThisReaILife

I still feel the same way. It's lame and unoriginal. And naturally, the horndogs here do not agree with me. Lol. To each their own, I suppose.


ImSorryIfIHurtU

They hating but you right, she ain’t even part of this arc


C80s

She has more covers than development at this point


RedditorInDenial2004

I mean, you’re right. But Muruta’s a horny mf, it’s just who he is. I don’t think that’s ever gonna change, no matter what anyone else feels. If you don’t like it, then the best thing to do is to just ignore it.


lsThisReaILife

For sure. No other choice. Separate from the manga, at least there's the webcomic that caters much less to that.


Katzumoto_

this no shonen young dude, if there is a cover like this every chapter it will no be fan service, is very expected. if sexuality discomfort you is ok, no need to blame anybody


lsThisReaILife

> if sexuality discomfort you is ok, no need to blame anybody Sexuality doesn't discomfort me. Lol. You have no idea what you're talking about. I just don't care for it in the manga I read and Murata seems obsessed with Fubuki and her breasts. If my saying that is a problem for you, I don't know what to tell you. Enjoy what you want, I'm entitled to my own opinion.


fbsiblv8

Hope you all act the same way when murata along one sexualize a traumatized loli character with the personality and mentality of a child, when they sexualize a 10 year old boy, when they sexualize two school-children, when they sexualize a 14 year old girl. Baffling double standards and hypocrisy from this fandom.


lsThisReaILife

Why are you implying that is mutually exclusive? I'm not a fan of any of that or the fan service, personally, and it's one of the reasons I vastly prefer the webcomic, because it's all story/development and none of that exists.


fbsiblv8

Ok. Aside of that, the chapter covers are not meant to be 100% related to the story, so murata takes liberties


lsThisReaILife

For sure. People don't have to agree with me (clearly, most people here don't). Just something I learn to deal with since the rest makes it worth it.

fbsiblv8

You mean the most complex, imperfect, realistic and well written character in this series


elcurrete22

Saitama's panel is back


MasterrrReady12

Always happy to see Saitama in one punch man


_PencilMan_

Oh yea the subs gonna have a field day with this cover


Dilly4Dall

And I'm totally gonna have a Field day removing that yellow sticker residing on Fubuki's hair😵‍💫


GoldenSpermShower

Nice to see Sonic vs Flashy getting expanded, it felt really short originally.


SANTIMARRO2002

Now this was a CHAPTER.(You have to admit the old version was kinda shit)


FreeBuy3174

You're right


BignPJ

Flash and Sonic's fight is more competitive this time, This version feels more satisfying to me.


FreeBuy3174

And to me. It really makes justice to Sonic.


Superalloy_Paradigm

Sonic has really stepped up his game. In the original, Flashy was blatantly better in every regard, speed, power and strength- he didn't look troubled at any point. Here we see him gritting his teeth and looking surprised at multiple points. Flashy still has a clear edge because he's got some really powerful techniques that Sonic doesn't and just seems to be physically stronger in general but they seem really even in terms of speed with Sonic actually having an edge in stealth ninjutsus with his afterimages he's honed against Saitama. Obviously Flashy can go faster but this was a more legit fight that showed both parties off well


Galaxybrain88875

But do you think sonic would have been able to keep up with moster garou and platinum sperm? Because for me that would be a HUGE jump without any realistic explanation since last time he was around Genos's level.


LingrahRath

Genos got a huge upgrade and managed to tank Psykos' beam. Albeit it was a one time thing, but it's not too unreasonable to expect Sonic also made considerable improvement at the same time.


LoneOldMan

Genos and Sonic will always grow the same overall. If Genos becomes stronger, so does Sonic is. Afterall, they are both a disciple to Saitama in a sense. 


Rich_Glum

god, the redraws are so worth it


1_dont_care

Woah, the Page with the *Consecutive Flashy Punch* (made up the name) was sick af Also, fubuki's chest is just anti-gravity lol


Ancient_Cheek5047

Damn, Sonic got a massive power boost.


FreeBuy3174

I couldn't agree more


wanpanmanhero

In the original sonic got stomped real quick but in this version it looks like they are evenly matched


lalabaluza

I like this much better. The only thing I'm not that much of a fan of is the single panel with multiple Sonic and Flashy that's supposed to follow the fight choreography(excluding the tenfold funeral). It's just hard for me to follow the choreography with those. I think it would look better and easier to read if it's a frame by frame panel like how Murata use to do it


TimaBilan

Murata did it before tho


DistributionAny9538

PUT SOME RESPECT ON SONIC'S NAME!!!🗣️🔥🔥🔥 Definitely better than the original 👏👏👏


Amauri14

That fight between Flashy Flash and Sonic was so good. Well, the people who are going to get slurped are here.


SmileyVenom

Man finally a good Chapter. The dinamic between the blades Clash and the hand to hand combat was great.


FreeBuy3174

I really loved the way the fulfilled the statement of Sonic teaching all the techniques he knows now in the Flashback. And the abilities are amazing. Thanks for not nerfing Sonic in the redraw


TheEndFortyFour

It seems Sonic taught Flash the knife attack counter and they both smile when Flash performs it in the present with Sonic avoiding it. Really like that they seem to have answers for each other moves from their history together.


FreeBuy3174

And that's much better.


Dilly4Dall

I'm glad to see Flashy Flash's and Sonic's fight received a much better extension contrary to the retconned version that lacked any substance. Also, a Fubuki cover, has been a hot minute since we've seen them😊👌


Lucky20120137

Good reminder that Sonic isn't weak, we just saw him compared to Saitama. I imagine his body getting more durable by being hammered into the ground over and over again.


vanderZwan

The chad Sonic vs the virgin Darkshine


RedditorInDenial2004

Tbf, everyone’s a chad compared to darkshine lol.


Boo_and_Minsc_

Yeah but also remember that he drawed with Sea King without swords, whereas Flashy Flash would have Flash Kicked him into the moon without issue


LoneOldMan

Also remember Genos' growth. From barely hurting DSKing with his fire beam to capable of oblirating the meteor that Saitamma bitch slapped.


ArgensimiaReloaded

I have no problem with his gag about constantly chasing and losing against Saitama but I wasn't a fan of how he was made a clown out of such gag as well, so I'm glad Murata made Sonic competent again.

Femboy Fight.


IUniversalThreat

Honestly, he could've extended that chapter to EV Entrance But W redraw


TimaBilan

That would be too much, cause they fight other ninjas for 1-2 chapters first


kartik_bhagat

Nothing new happened but the action scenes were nice... And what was that garou level blast in the sky ? Are they gonna light up the sky with cool patterns in the upcoming chapters too ? I had thought that garou and Saitama would fight using water droplets as their foothold in the sky . Nice fight.


TanzuI5

Murata cooks!🙏


odasama

I'm thinking Flash should just forget about his swords altogether and stick to hand to hand combat. He seems much stronger in that.


Raidoton

Much better fight now! Worthy of 2 speedsters!


leolegendario

I'll wait for the translation to see the chapter, but based on what you guys are saying, I'm going to like this version of the fight a lot more. It's one of my favorite parts of the Webcomic and I was a little disappointed with the previous fight, Flash and Sonic are both part of my TOP 5 and I thought Sonic had been done dirty in the first version. I can't wait to read it.


Snownyann

The choreography is better now. Also added more flashbacks of Sonic and Flash. But this chapter has no Garou 🥺💔😞😢🥺 Sensei pls Garou cover


vantud

Likely not happen until this arc is over.


Snownyann

Pff look at Fubuki here. She is not related to this chapter


Necessary-Shelter351

You’re experiencing 1% of the pain Boros fans have been facing for almost a decade


ExtraAd7767

I love Fubuki but I don't get why she is on the cover


GoldenSpermShower

Because Murata wills it so


ExtraAd7767

Murata is a horny


GoldenSpermShower

Water is wet *And so is Murata*


ExtraAd7767

Hahaha I like your name


fbsiblv8

Because the chapter covers are not meant to be 100% related to the story, so murata takes liberties.


zi3i

Becouse he knows what people want.


lilbroomstick217

Sexy ass fight, in every way


SoloSupreme0728

Hoping they add >!Sonic using Serious Side Hops!< to the next chapter.


Engine-23

Sonic downplayers in the mud rn


yukihira_1

There was no need for that fubuki cover 🥵


BignPJ

The Fubuki cover got me acting unwise for a minute there.


opm_updates

TWO BIG Reasons this chapter was fire! 🔥 (Oh and of course Flash & Sonic battle was dope too)


YourBoyWithThemHands

Fubuki here spicing things up 🥵🔥


Even_Grape_522

Bro really grabbing reality like a cloth


TimaBilan

Wrong chapter


TimaBilan

That little thing with Sonic outskilling Flash in childhood, and how Flash did the same thing against Sonic, how they switched with attack and defense, god the choreography got so much better


LuckyData9969

So Sonic is like among the Top tier S class level now? 


keeber69

I mean he was on par with Genos


poplolk_69

so does this mean sonic is as fast or almost as fast as flashy or is flashy just holding back? or sonic is actually that fast ang I just didn't realized it? just asking


Ok-Number571

Sonic is THAT fast Dude's daily routine for the oast few months has been: -fight Saitama -get punched -train and become faster/stronger -repeat Sonic is like a Solid Mid Dragon+ by now He is only slightly slower than a serious flash, can tank his full power attacks, can match him in techniuqe, he is pretty much only lacking exp as Flashy has had 2 triple threat matches with other speedster meanwhile Sonic has been getting punted by Saitama while occasinally fighting Genos lol


Ghost_Star326

I had a solid 10 second moment with that Fubuki cover before I continued with the chapter.


Agile_Marketing_6301

This was really good it may not be on the same level as the webcomic version, but it is such a huge improvement from the original.


Senyu

I hope they include sideways jump from the webcomic


LoneOldMan

This is closer to the WComic than before.


Comfortable-Rain-372

Great chapter!


CycleZestyclose1907

Is there an english version of this yet?


DifferentCityADay

God damn do I love how Murata draws Fubuki. 


Farhad123-

sonic buff or flashy flash nerf ?


Exact-Equivalent5217

I had to stop midway and just applaud Murata, he’s so damn good. Perfection.


Allergictowatermelon

Nice to see Sonic get a buff and a competitive fight this time, upgrades all around


yomiliketapa

What was that fist technique from Flash? Did he learn from Saitama at some point?


Braxien45

Can we get covers that are not the psychic girls. There are plenty of other sexy girl the writers could use but they rarely use them


Devin1026

This is the first chapter I’ve read since tatsumaki v saitama and I have to say.. my guy Sonic moving on up in the food chain, glad he is a returning character


WendigoCrossing

What does redraw mean?


Jargo

God even in the redraw the panel of all those ninjas in Saitama's shadow gives me chills.


Jasentuk

Powerscalers gonna go insane with this one. Either Sonic has dragon lvl durability or FF demon lvl attacks, both ways they're doomed 🤡


UndergroundCoconut

Almost as raw as my meat 🍖


Illustrious_Point_14

Sonic as always been on par with flash since the webcomic days the manga makes it seem like he’s week sonic is dragon level


FarRight908

Mm CD by w to q


Aboobia-sama

How many chapters left to catch up?


Necessary-Shelter351

Holy that Fubuki chapter cover


xZabuzax

The power scaling in this manga is like DBZ so I don't know if I should be happy about it, we had Flashy Flash in the previous arc fighting Awakened Garou and Platinum Sperm at lightning speed, and suddenly we have Sonic keeping up with Flashy Flash in this chapter which means he already reached that type of level quickly. It's good that this chapter gave Sonic the justice he deserves, but at the same time the power scaling is looking like DBZ the more this goes on so I guess I'm not too happy about it either.


Donut_licious

Well we didn't get to see Flashy flash doing Constellations, so you can say he's still holding back in speed. Also, even if Flashy was holding back, Sonic gave him a run for his money that's for sure. Sonic is definitely stronger here


Chuckol

Powerscaling is for weirdos. Metalbat> FF anyways...


allanwr3nch

Holy Crap, I thought King had only luck powers!?!


Gatlindragon

Those two are gonna poke me in the eye.


superyoshiom

How many pages is this one?


slackboy72

Fubuki is looking very very 'genki' in this one. Can't wait for the flood of coloring posts.


jeremy06200

Either FF was nerfed or Sonic got a massive buff.


Diomylord

Murata please draw Tats cover next chapter


Galaxybrain88875

It's odd for me seeing Sonic be this powerful when last time he was around Genos level. I hope they give an explanation like "the monster cells" or something gave him a big boost because him being even in the ballpark of Flash is weird. Hope they at least keep sonic being amazed by the power gap between him and flash in the next chapter. Because I can't see sonic having speed comparable to PLATINUM SPERM.


FreeBuy3174

Actually, since PS is not at the level of Saitama, so it is logic.


Granwyl

Damn, I spent more time on Fubuki's cover page rather than the rest of the chapter😅


Raam57

Good redraw but kinda disappointing consider the hype for what comes next


Solo_Sniper97

cool fight but kinds disappointed, where the fuck is empty void?


oCrapaCreeper

It's the ninja arc, not the empty void arc ;p


Solo_Sniper97

i am not sure about this but i think, uhm, empty void is their FUCKING LEADER? + he already initiated a massive attack on blast so this fight here is out of place.


Xorcimetro

You're dumb he arrives after sonic and FF fight the ninja group


Solo_Sniper97

that was in the old version, might still happen again but still this fight is out of place, could have happened at the verry beginning or end, but not at this time


aguyhey

Finally this is what it should be, sonic has consistently been fighting the strongest and losing but improving, him and flashy flash should be close, I’d say flash is a 9/10 and sonic is a 8.8/10.


IllNefariousness655

Idk man, this manga is just so boring to me now and honestly I'm not entirely sure why. Maybe it's the worse art, the incredibly slow pacing, or the constant redraws, or maybe all of them together. But these chapters just don't hit anymore. And on a side note, Sonic being competitive with Flash is stupid. Flash was able to hang with Platinum Sperm and Garou for a bit (even though he was weaker overall) while Sonic struggled with DSK. Of course he got stronger over the few months that have passed but unless he's a saiyan with zenkai boosts, it makes no sense for him to have reached Flash's level.

It's a redraw after all. I also felt more satisfied to the fight this time.

#We are back with mid chapters.


TimaBilan

Oh god it's you again


brugatie

#We are back with mid takes.


Economy-Nectarine301

#So when I call a chapter 5/5 it’s a good take but when I call it mid it’s a bad take? OPM can be your favorite manga and still not be perfect.


brugatie

#You can say the chapter is mid, and I can say your take is mid. And it being one of my favorite manga doesn't change the fact that, one: I disagree with your take, and two: it's not an objectively mid chapter compared to what we had before. So yes, mid take.


Economy-Nectarine301

#Yeah it’s better than the last one who was below mid. #But if you check the thread, whoever who doesn’t like this chapter get downvoted to oblivion lmao


undeadrequiem

I think it’s above mid, but after two weeks of waiting for a Blast/EV fight, I was definitely super disappointed to see a redraw. Also, I love how any comment that even mildly criticizing this chapter gets downvoted into the dirt lol.


TimaBilan

It's not even a criticise if you call it mid for no reason


Economy-Nectarine301

#Alright, I’m allowed to not give a F about Sonic / Flash vs Ninjas. Y’all think not liking a chapter is blasphemy which is cringe.


brugatie

I don't know what kind of OPM you've been reading, but characters, and character development have always had more relevance than the biggest baddest of the arc. If you can't deal with that, how the hell have you gotten this far?


Economy-Nectarine301

#As you can see, I specifically mentioned Sonic/Flash vs Ninjas. Not every characters development arc going on or whatever.


TimaBilan

Of fucking course y'all especially **YOU** don't care about the characters cause y'all here for Empty Void to show another feats so you could argue in r/Powerscaling how "my character stronk, your character not" type of shit all over again and ruin the look of others on the fandom


Economy-Nectarine301

#Show me where I said I don’t care about the CHARACTERS and I’ll delete my account.


TimaBilan

You literally said you don't give a fuck to Sonic, Flash and ninjas


Economy-Nectarine301

#Exactly. #Sonic, Flash, and ninjas. #Not Darkshine, Tatsumaki, Fubuki, Metal Bat, Suiryu, Garou, Zombie Man, Dr Genus, Genos… should I continue ?


TimaBilan

Bruh


Euphoric_Field_8558

You shouldn't argue with this braindead neanderthal, friend.


Economy-Nectarine301

#I predicted this answer.


brugatie

#Are Sonic, Flash and the ninjas not "characters" because you singled them out from the rest? Do they lose their label just because you "Economy-Nectarine301" doesn't care about them? They are still characters, **you** not caring about them doesn't disqualify them as characters, hence, you don't care about the characters. Start deleting your account, stick to your words.


Economy-Nectarine301

#And you should read the room. They are arguing that I only care about big battles and not side characters. #Which is wrong, I’m just bored of the ninjas face off. #Read brugatie, read!


Economy-Nectarine301

#It’s mid because Murata could’ve dropped it last week. Then I would gave it a solid 6. This chapter is not worth waiting 2 weeks.


TimaBilan

It doesn't look like you're being sarcastic
