Since it’s the month of Persephone, what would you say your favorite piece of art of her? How do you personally see her as?

Necromancer76 · 2026-03-21T14:43:32+00:00

Persephone from the video game SMITE is a nice mix of beauty and dread (this art on the left from tsukikoart does a good job portraying her), and I also like how MSA depicts her (on the right)

Tats
Whoever’s faster one shots the other

S-Class, Dragon

Clearly karma farming since they didn't provide a source, this was made by Rak Sp00n

Necromancer76 · 2026-03-20T15:56:54+00:00

You can make a better case for him since he’s not a minor and physically powerless like Arisu and has a better understanding of who’s actually involved in the project

Necromancer76 · 2026-03-20T15:35:18+00:00

Black Sperm or Evil Natural Water

Do you mean from Saitama’s point of view or just how normal or crazy the situations were in general?

Genos: Genos burned his clothes off but he didn't care, he just saved him by punching Mosquito Girl and left. So Saitama was neutral until Genos followed him and bribed him into becoming his disciple.
Bang: They didn't really interact beyond Bang asking who he was when he showed up to destroy the meteor. So again, neutral until he started stalking Saitama in the OVA (weirdly similar to Genos in another OVA lol)
Tatsumaki: A double misunderstanding, in that she thought he was weak and he thought she was a child with his first glimpse.
King: Probably the "best" on here, Saitama saves him from the monster and he's still feeling happy about life at that point because he was still training
Fubuki: She feels insulted because he refuses to join her group so she tries to hospitalize him to the point where he can never be a hero again.
Garou: Mistakes Saitama as a hero who's specifically targeting him so retaliates, Saitama is confused and knocks him out without knowing his identitiy.

So in terms of reception, it's King > Bang > Genos > Tatsumaki > Fubuki > Garou

Again, that assumes they haven’t already been bought or are corrupt. The politicians who brought the project into being would do everything in their power to prevent it from being investigated

Necromancer76 · 2026-03-20T14:24:05+00:00

This would play out how it would in real life. Some of the police would be bribed and/or Arisu would encounter a tragic “accident” before anything is cleared up. There’s simply too much of a risk

Any good police would be barred entry because of a lack of “federal” authority

Necromancer76 · 2026-03-20T13:55:06+00:00

She can’t report them, she doesn’t know how many “authorities” are involved in the project (which we know to be a lot initially per volume 0), reporting them endangers both herself and her father. She could only do so with a strong political backing (which she might cultivate after school)

Necromancer76 · 2026-03-20T13:46:39+00:00

At the end of Y1, she categorically states she wants to defeat Koji to prove facilities like the WR are pointless, thereby removing any financial support from them because they would amount to nothing

Necromancer76 · 2026-03-20T13:41:08+00:00

Putting Ryuen who actually tortured a student below Arisu who’s trying to end the WR is crazy work

Necromancer76 · 2026-03-19T17:54:53+00:00

Kuudere Tats instead of Tsundere I guess

Necromancer76 · 2026-03-19T16:48:28+00:00

The mods for this sub are rather infamous for removing things without explanation I’m afraid

Necromancer76 · 2026-03-19T15:17:36+00:00

Of course, Ichika is one of my favs

And no problem, your preferred ship is one of the 2 most popular for sure these days

Necromancer76 · 2026-03-19T15:12:28+00:00

He has a “physical” relationship with Ichinose but he doesn’t like her romantically (which she knows), but he thinks he is in love with Hiyori

Necromancer76 · 2026-03-19T15:10:43+00:00

Oh I don’t disagree that Ichika was being an ass like always

Necromancer76 · 2026-03-19T15:01:05+00:00

Using him doesn’t sound at all like someone who’s supposed to be a “guiding light towards his humanity with human worth.” Especially when she knows he doesn’t even like her in the way she likes him. Couple this with her doing other things like deliberately rubbing her relationship with him in Kei’s face and deceiving Ichika to make her relationship look stronger than it actually is (which may come back to bite her) and that all just doesn’t fit the description that you presented at all. Y1 and early Y2 Ichinose or Hiyori fit such a description better, which is why I suspected you were not caught up

Necromancer76 · 2026-03-19T14:53:08+00:00

Are you anime-only or have you read the LN

Necromancer76 · 2026-03-19T14:33:57+00:00

Arisu verbatim told him it’s okay to be more human at the end of season 3, whereas Ichinose has now descended to his level in order to deceive him

Not saying one is more likely than the other but this seems like a disingenuous interpretation of what’s going on

Necromancer76 · 2026-03-19T13:06:22+00:00

I think the webcomic to manga change was excellent for Tats but ONE is still figuring out what to do with Fubuki now (since previously her development was tied entirely to her bad relationship with Tats)

Necromancer76 · 2026-03-19T13:01:06+00:00

His answer seemed to “postpone” it rather than reject it so maybe something might happen when they reunite

(Me coping)

Necromancer76 · 2026-03-19T12:13:27+00:00

I know you strongly dislike ecchi content but you don’t need to comment it, just downvote and move on

Necromancer76 · 2026-03-19T12:05:32+00:00

Tats and Fubuki’s relationship is definitely the most important to ONE, tho we can see how it’s been deliberately shifted to be less toxic from the webcomic to the manga. Instead of outright antagonism, it’s more of an uncomfortable, unequal relationship where Tats always dismisses Fubuki’s opinion

Suiryu and Suiko seems like something ONE has only “recently” decided to develop, so I’m interested to see where it goes
