Lol.. Manga version of Deadpool? Nah

by DarkTachyon

Rating: 1.0 / 10.0

I don't agree with saying the manga version of Deadpool. When talking about deadpool, dr slump is more like deadpool than OPM.
There are too many revisions and deviations from ONE's original work, even though ONE's version has a better story.The MC has a cringeworthy comedy, in contrast to Deadpool. And the MC appears very rarely, in contrast to Deadpool. So naaah, this isn't the manga version of Deadpool. What makes this manga "a plus one" is only the art, and the story is truly normal

The main character doesn't exist and 90% of the chapters don't even have Saitama in them.

Imagine Deadpool, but manga version

by crossdotmoe

Rating: N/A

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.

by likalaruku1

Rating: 10.0 / 10.0

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...

bad adaptation

by Joese

Rating: 1.0 / 10.0

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

by HikaruYami
5 years ago

Rating: 3.0 / 10.0

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...

by frangelic

Rating: 6.0 / 10.0

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.
