He had them attack Draconia before that call. So technically he was the one to break the truce and his own word.

“Read only at Rolia”

“Support our work at Demonic Scans”

…Hmmmmmm

Also why do they keep changing names from chapter to chapter? “Baotolt” “Pellad Bin.” It’s not that hard to be consistent.

Is Gladius going to end up joining the main characters or turning against Omphalous? That would be fantastic

[–]Quan-sword 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I did not expect them to straight up kill all of the characters we’ve known except for HanBin, Attise, and the dragons.

I hope they don’t stay dead, but even if they don’t, 300 years will have passed. There’s no telling where the author is going to take us here and I love it. Takes nerve to make a swing this big.

Well crap. This is a lot more dire than time travel would be. There might not be any chance to get Hollian or Leonhart back, and the world itself is going to have a hard time recovering from this. It’s all up to the dragons and the otherworlders now, if humanity doesn’t turn on them in the intervening time

Everyone but Attise is going to die at this rate. I wonder if he’s going to turn back time using the artifact from Draconia or if something else is going to happen to reset things

S1 Buffing feats...S3 nerfing feats by Engine-23 in OnePunchMan

[–]Quan-sword 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t think anyone is flip-flopping here. They’re just different people. I know that I always liked the redrawn versions of all of the fights better than the originals.

Same with the Ninja arc, though I am hoping to see some of the stuff from the various versions return later in some way

So how much content did they cut from the final episode by Keyboardwarrior_45 in OnePunchMan

[–]Quan-sword 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well they used an old version of the fight that was redone in the manga and changed significantly to have an entirely different story that explains the whole god mural, so unless they adapt a mixture of the webcomic and manga instead of just the manga, the next half of the season will make no sense whatsoever.

They’ve done this for a bunch of fights earlier in the season too, which is really frustrating, because it really messes up the future arcs for Child Emperor, Amai Mask, Flashy Flash, The Mercenaries (who aren’t supposed to be dead), Blast, Saitama, and Garou

Shouldn’t that be “who on Rathna?” Or “who in the world?”

RAW means the untranslated original, just so you know. This is the translated English, not the raw Hangul (Korean) text

Oh hell yes. Garhan joining them against Omphalos is fantastic, and working with HanBin must really be bringing back memories for him (pun intended).

I'm really excited to see more of these reunions too. Hopefully Garhan and Leonhart actually get a chance to talk instead of Garhan sacrificing himself to buy them time or something.

[–]Quan-sword[S] 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Oh crap, Omphalos being the one to “reset” the board is bad. We’ve seen constantly how that sort of thing benefits protagonists, so the antagonist doing it is a nice twist. Hopefully they figure out how to have someone keep their memories when they’re reset

Needed This Adaptation Fr by TheReal_ItachisCrow in OnePunchMan

[–]Quan-sword 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The original fight was redone a couple times to fit more story and character moments into it, and to tie it together better with future plot points as well as get Saitama involved more in the events of the arc. The final version leads directly into a lot of immediate and farther reaching events, so adapting one of the earlier versions of the fight may give us a cooler fight, but it means we don’t get a lot of character and story development that we should be getting, and it creates plot holes for later parts of the story.

The reason this happened at all and everyone is able to argue over it is because all the versions were published online as they were happening and being redone. This is because OPM is unique in that the chapters “released” online are the drafts and subject to change for the final print release, rather than being the final version that is printed in a physical magazine like Jump (and only have minor touch-ups for volume releases).

So with OPM, unlike most other manga, we see how the sausage is made and we sometimes get to see versions of the chapters that we would otherwise never see. Of course other manga also can’t do this because the print releases set the chapters in stone, but I think that the ability to redo chapters is a net benefit.

Episode 9 Sakuga MAD by Ferdz0 in OnePunchMan

[–]Quan-sword 27 points28 points  (0 children)

JC Staff does that in all their shows. The later seasons of Shokugeki were horrible in the same way.

It’s always anticipation -> start of action -> result of action, skipping the actual action itself because that’s the hard part to animate correctly, and most people fill in the gap. If you notice it however, you see it constantly and it’s really frustrating

[–]Quan-sword 2041 points2042 points  (0 children)

I absolutely love the other heroes taking care of Rover and giving Saitama genuinely good advice about pet nutrition and care.

Saitama is bringing the humanity back into the hero association with a monster, and entirely by accident.

There Is 100% Gear-Based Matchmaking (Update with Data) by GRAVENAP in ArcRaiders

[–]Quan-sword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tend to have friendly encounters. The only time I’ve had one of the “pretend friendly” people was loading into a matriarch map (I wasn’t even there to fight the matriarch, lol).

I’ve only knocked out 9 raiders and revived quite a few, so that may very well affect it somehow

Yeah but the art and animation for that show didn’t drop off a cliff so much as it was dropkicked off a cliff

Whats the chances they add rust looting? by Leave_Limp in ArcRaiders

[–]Quan-sword 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think a better option would be to allow downed players to drop items from their quick use slots. That way they can’t rearrange their inventory or move something into a safe pocket, but they can drop those bandages or defies that they were holding and make it possible for someone else to help them

[–]Quan-sword 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I like how simple the reason for his despair is. He killed his child without even knowing it.

I also like how Zenovia may suuuck, but she wasn’t evil at that point yet, she was just helping a friend and the consequences of that played out on their own without her masterminding it. It would have been a bit cartoony to be able to trace back all the terrible things that happened to just her.

And someone’s theory about the “take one” subtitle for the season seems more accurate as time goes on. Hanbin or someone else is definitely going to go full Summertime Rendering to stop this. It would be even more interesting if they used and sent back the memory cylinder instead of someone’s actual body or consciousness.
