    Manga: Onepunch-Man


    Alternative Title: Onepunchman, Onepunch-Man, Onepanman, ワンパンマン

    Type: Manga
    Volumes: 2 and counting
    Chapters: 23 and counting
    Author: Murata, Yusuke (Art), One (Story)
    Serialization: Tonari no Young Jump
    Genres: Action, Comedy, Parody, Super Power, Supernatural, Seinen

    Synopsis: Follows the life of an average hero who manages to win all of his battles with only one punch! This ends up being the cause of a lot of frustration as he no longer feels the thrill and adrenaline of fighting a tough battle.

    Maybe all of the hard training to become strong wasn't worth it. After all what's so good about having an overwhelming power?

    Let it be noted that this manga is an adaptation by Murata of ONE's webcomic-format chapters, of which there are like ~90. Murata has done a bang-up job of taking the nonexistent art and action in the original series and sexing it up something fierce. Also it's great. Not only is it a very funny send-up of superhero and shounen comics but it's absolutely stunning to look at, and the very serious art and scripts just make the gags funnier.

    The fact that it was already pretty popular when it looked like this...



    ...should tell you something about the quality of the content. Now imagine that same content coupled with some of the best art you'll ever have the pleasure of beholding.

    Here is the original comic if anyone's interested

    This is one of best mangas i've read - funny, interesting, with GOD-level art and humour. Battles are dynamic, fluid, easy to follow and great.
    Sadly chapters are getting released pretty slowly

    Same here Ark, same here. Anime of this with proper budged would be godlike... but we won't be seeing one for at least 2 years if the content generation speed stays the same.

    Well the content is already out there... it's not like they have to wait for Murata to catch up to the comic to start animating it.

    I don't think it would ever be able to replicate the visual deliciousness of the manga though.

    FYI, my sources tell me the next chapter has around 50 pages and they're all colorized.

    Wow. Until I read it here, I didn't notice that it was colored at all... Great art, nonetheless.

    30's out. The pacing and art are so spot on, I catch myself making stupid sound effects during the fights... I feel like a kid again, in a good way.

    I like how other Hero's are given a turn to fight before getting their asses handed to them. Because we all know Saitama is just gonna instagib them.

    Chapter 24

    Bit of a shame where they ended the chapter but it was still pretty good. I just wonder if Merfag will last long enough against Sonic for Saitama to show up and how the world Class S is for pussies.

    Holy shiznit this manga is AMAZING. Like, this is worth going through all the bad shounen tripe. The bad shounen tripe just makes this manga BETTER.

    Saitama is pretty much a singularity. And nothing can even pretend to stand in his shadow.
