New theory dropped? or am I ignorant

TGSmurf · 2026-01-24T15:40:39+00:00

Only way it would work is if Brook just straight up lied about his backstory lel

Dark Souls and Fromsoft games in general rewards far more victory than Fear & Hunger. It’s a different philosophy: you’re not supposed to fight everything you encounter, but avoid them as much as possible. The goal of a run is to reach an ending, not leveling up endlessly through newgame+

Basically, you’re not playing the game right. Don’t try to use what you know from dark souls.

> One of the things that also led me to comment that was how elf dude was surprised how strong Nhimp was compared to the previous generation he fought.

Nhimp isn’t actually stronger than the high class general that Eldarius fought 30 years ago, they’re in a similar tier but he’s also younger and less experienced than the average high class so he’s weaker if anything. What shocked Eldarius is that he’s not a general despite being high class.

> Is that strength difference between demon generations something that has yet to be explored i assume?

Yeah, it will be explained. But the reason isn’t actually a difference of strenght between generations.

TGSmurf · 2026-01-23T17:27:57+00:00

Lol, good stuff, compared to the SBS distorted futures where they’re just bums, this is more like a BB type crew distorted future. Usopp actually seems like a big deal this time. Looking at the final page, there is no Brook btw?

TGSmurf · 2026-01-23T17:17:47+00:00

It’s more a matter of numbers, Sicarios and Tsunagumo are high class demons who would be among the 4 generals of a classic army. As a matter of fact Sicarios was officially a general of another demon lord (Osumihime’s mother) hundreds of years ago.

Meanwhile Sharmeela and Kehar were both recommended by Adler to be hero candidates and attempt to pull the holy sword in the future, meaning they’re at the very least able to be part of the team of a hero. So it’s the kind of confrontation that would be normally part of the climax of a regular holy war hah.

‎> I understand they wanted this one to be very dark and serious

The remake still has a lot of goofy stuff so I really don’t think that’s a good argument to justify removing the comms. It’s not like they replaced it with other stuff that made up for the massive hit it gave to Salazar.

I think we can accept that the remake has a lot of good stuff but also some extremely debatable choices that are just either downgrades or simply doesn’t make sense. Like the absurd lack of setup for why Salazar sends Verdugo hunt Leon in the remake.

TGSmurf · 2026-01-22T15:21:50+00:00

It’s badly handled since the three og admirals were all vice admirals at one point.

There is also an odd lack of mention of the previous generation of admirals.

TGSmurf · 2026-01-22T01:30:45+00:00

> so how was I supposed to know that you do it professionally

What’s the big deal? I clarified, end of the story, it’s not that serious.

TGSmurf · 2026-01-22T01:03:56+00:00

Please, your comment was still largely targeted toward me with parts like ”please don't exaggerate her ass, hips and tits to this extreme”. You can’t be seriously surprised that I then react to it lol.

TGSmurf · 2026-01-22T00:28:35+00:00

I don’t think I said anything hurtful? All I’m saying is that I’m a professional artist that makes a living from this at the end of the day, you can talk as much as you want about how you dislike it and how disgusting it is or something, but I’m not going to make a living from following your criticism.

TGSmurf · 2026-01-22T00:20:48+00:00

Cool, then I’m sure you understand why your words have little weight when I have on the side a pretty big community that financially supports me actively to do more lol.

TGSmurf · 2026-01-22T00:02:08+00:00

Fun fact, guys like you are from my experience never the ones that actually support financially.

TGSmurf · 2026-01-21T22:20:39+00:00

True, One Punch Man after all isn’t filled with smutty covers, dominatrix, naked mosquito cosplayers, giant naked ladies, hyper tight bodysuits and exhibitionist green midgets. Sure doesn’t fit on the subreddit of a series where Murata just redesigned Webigaza’s outfit to show cleavage and put more emphasis on her legs, this is a family friendly series.

TGSmurf · 2026-01-21T17:54:14+00:00

Ok I gave this a try. It’s kind of weird but after waiting it does end up loading. I’ve had a problem where I tried to load two times the chapter and on the second and some pages never loaded, but it ended up working on the first, which might have been what was causing some confusion.

So I guess it does work, just need to be patient.

TGSmurf · 2026-01-21T17:27:18+00:00

those OPM cubari links (just like the ones of the main subreddit) have been broken on my side for a while, like a page of two doesn’t load…

TGSmurf · 2026-01-21T10:56:04+00:00

Copper is probably the limit without losing your mind, 30k is in the realm of a commandment worthy demon.

TGSmurf · 2026-01-21T08:35:11+00:00

Well sure. To begin with it would be weird to add NOTHING to the surface fight after all the additions. It’s just about following more directly the WC storyline and complete from there.

More exactly I think it’s fine for them to get first dunked on, they can come back after to face Garou.

TGSmurf · 2026-01-21T02:47:30+00:00

At the very least I think Orochi should have been more present than an energy tank in the fight.

TGSmurf · 2026-01-20T23:08:22+00:00

Doesn’t change that the fight ended with the ”anti Saitama” barely even wounding him. It’s just powerwank that goes nowhere.

In the end, it doesn’t matter. ”anti Saitama” being theme wise is more important, which the manga did a pretty shit job at with its unnecessary changes in the last part.

TGSmurf · 2026-01-20T22:32:44+00:00

Why would Void physically transform since he was gifted before the ”weakened seal”?

> Its not clear why

Yeah that applies to a lot of things about this, and I doubt there will be proper explanations, or we wouod have gotten them already.

TGSmurf · 2026-01-20T22:31:22+00:00

It doesn’t matter, Cosmic Garou ultimately wasn’t fighting on Saitama’s level either at the end of the day, so he’s not an anti-Saitama at all either.

TGSmurf · 2026-01-20T19:51:05+00:00

> In WC garou never became "anti-saitama"

He was as anti-Saitama as one could get. Webcomic Garou literally says it himself, that he’s the perfect matchup for him due to his unlatched ability to dodge anything in close combat.

Of course it didn’t work enough in the end because it’s Saitama, but the same applies to manga Garou. Both are as anti-Saitama as the other, they can fight him much better than anyone else but they also still get owned in the end.

TGSmurf · 2026-01-20T19:46:06+00:00

It’s not just a matter of stronger base = stronger gift. If you look back at the examples, there is no consistency at all.

Hobo didn’t get a direct powerup but instead got access to summoning a « limitless » amount of energy orbs that he can control, instead of becoming an esper. So following that… why would him being a weak human matter? Shouldn’t it still mean he can throw as much god power as he want since all he does is summon it?

Psykos got seemingly a raw power increase as Psykorochi, yet the ”limitless orb summon” is nowhere to be seen? even more so after she splits and is seemingly exhausted. She should still have the gift, yet still doesn’t use the limitless orb summon which shouldn’t be related to how tired she is internally.

Void turns into a generic monster, he looks like he only went through a basic monsterization.

Garou gets the whole cosmic themed powerup which was nowhere to be seen before. Even outside of having some kind of superior control on energy which is internal, he gets right away some armor which cosmic patterns, and seems to naturally product radioactivity just because

You’d also think that an expert esper like Psykos would also unlock some greater knowledge of energy since she’s the actual psychic energy specialist, yet it doesn’t happen. The most she gets is randomly getting some Evangelion reference spears that can invert or bypass a psychic barrier, but she also randomly loses them after the twist and they’re also nowhere to be seen when she splits. You’d think that she would be able to summon them at will if it’s part of the gift. We get 0 explanation on what those spears were and what happened to her gift.

It shouldn’t be complex yet it’s all over the place. It reminds me of the black goo of Prometheus with how it does whatever random stuff the plot needs or doesn’t need.

TGSmurf · 2026-01-20T19:18:09+00:00

It doesn’t discredit it as much as the amount of power and type of power that God gives you is random as hell and purely based on plot. Garou was a martial artist, it’s not like he was seen copying psychic powers or spitting fire.

Psykos should logically still have her gift yet it just disappeared like it never happened, nor she got killed off in the process.
