Imagine Deadpool, but manga version

Imagine Deadpool, but manga version. The de facto superhero parody series of this decade. Brilliant, impressive, and hilarious in every respect. For a series all about an overpowered protagonist, it got my heart pumping and emotionally invested. Also, Tatsumaki is a loli goddess.

The future of super heroes is Japan.

Has the same over-reaching premise as Tiger & Bunny, but a more snarky & satirical approach. Super heroes are celebrities, often intermingling with movie stars & music idols. Behind the scenes of the company running the heroes, political corruption & Crony capitalism work in the shadows. The media is only interested in entertainment value & spreads misinformation. A hero who gets no recognition or respect is outshined by his popular friends.
Like many mangas, this one goes through a genre shift, starting as a comedy that focuses on Saitama, then moving onto focus on action & teamwork, with plently of 80s style Eldrich horrors where the MC is pushed into the background & may be absent for large swaths of chapters.
This comic delivers hard on the things modern Marvel & DC have been failing at since they've lost their ways.
Eyecandy is plentiful for everyone. The male & female forms are a work of art in every panel. The detail of monsters & landscapes are mesmerising.
Highly recommend checking out the spoiler-filled webcomic, which is like a faster, condensed storyboard version of the manga with intentionally bad art. Those who are more invested in Saitama than the Hero Association may prefer the way it's paced over the manga, as Saitama's absences are shorter.
Other comments saying the manga goes in an entirely different direction from the webcomic are incorrect. The manga changes a few things & it adds filler & drags out situations, but it still follows the webcomic completely.

I started this to see Siatama. As the chapters progress he keeps getting shown less and less.
Great Art though...

The first part is not bad it is funny and absurd .But after that the characters quickly deviate from the web comic.
The story centres too much on the 'corruption' of the association using many tropes your generic bad guy would have .It turns into a distorted jap. superhero manga with an MC that has his convictions but usually (the author/editors) forget about them for and go for an easy laugh or a cliche situation.

Disappointing rewrites

As the series has gone on longer, Murata has shifted from "just stretch out the original story into absolutely gorgeous spreads" to "rewrite the most intense scenes almost from scratch so that I have more excuses to draw my absolutely gorgeous spreads".
It is not a good idea. Murata is not a good writer, he is a good artist. When he twists characters' personalities and actions to suit his plot devices, it makes the whole manga worse. I could give this series a confident 10 if it was literally just a redraw of the original. As it is now... I'm only even writing this review because the last few chapters have sickened me so much.

One punch man is just a good manga. It's amazing characters and story just gets better and better. The fights are just great, even better when they show off other characters fighting styles. And don't get me started with the monsters. So much detail and they just keep getting bigger, better and uglier.

It gets boring...

It's a good joke that goes on way too long and ends up becoming the thing it was supposed to be making fun of. Nothing actually happens. It's funny for a few chapters, but it's not funny or interesting enough to go on for over a hundred chapters. Even for a battle manga (I can appreciate a good one) there's absolutely no feeling that anything's at stake in any battle so it's not even an entertaining read in that regard. I only read up to around chapter 40, so maybe it suddenly becomes an actual story, but I doubt it. Mob Psycho 100 is a much better example of this author's work and highly recommended.

Not much I can say that hasn't been said. Wildly overpowered protagonist, but one who's still engaging. A cast of characters that's very well built for both action and humor. Stunning artwork. My one complaint is how slowly it's taken for Saitama toget involved in the latest arc; it's really taken away from him as a character. On the flip side, this arc has been great at developing the other heroes.

It's GREAT
the MC is so over-the-top OP but he's so lame that it's kinda funny
and yes it's pretty repetitive humor but it's great lol never gets old
the author is also a huge troll hahaha
what I don't understand is why uploads / chapters are always a mess
like in terms of numbering, etc.

Stops being a remake by chapter 47

Not really a review but I wanted to inform potential and current readers that the manga starts going it's own route from chapter 47 and they also add a lot more story and character screen time that isn't present in the original. I started thinking that the alteration in story may have been done in order to allow the original to receive more chapters but looking at the current chapter of the original (108 as of writing), I don't think this manga will keep story on the same path. It will be interesting to see the outcome of the current arc of this manga when we will actually find out what has changed and what has remained the same.
The manga is excellent nevertheless and the action never dulls down. The bonus added screen time for the manga's characters is one of it's more subtle charms that isn't present in the original. Though quite honestly, the remake may have shifted away from the qualities that were present before chapter 47.
I'm already feeling that much of the spirit that was present in the original may have been lost for good in the remake, especially the gags, so I suggest reading the original too.
