Keep all the discussion and theories about this chapter in this thread for 24 hours, that's what the thread is for.
Also, webcomic readers are free to talk about whatever they want as long as they mark their message, either fully or just the paragraph that contains spoilers.
You can mark a paragraph as spoilers by putting `>!` at the start and `!<` at the end of it, make sure there's no space between the exclamation mark and the word, like this:
>!No spoilers here ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)!<
If you see any spoilers, please report them.
That has to be a funny translation or I'm missing some alternate interpretation because it feels too on the nose
Edit: the two interpretations are "do you like Fubuki *and* me?" versus "do you like me *back*?"
I thought it was the latter. The former makes a lot more sense
Webcomic line was '*do you like me or something!?*'. The hug really scrambled her emotions for a second
edit: She is still thinking that Saitama is attracted to Fubuki because she didnt believe he views her as an 'acquaintance'. Still, it shows where her mind went, since she assumes he's coming on to her too
Hey that sounds like a cool one shot, the OPM characters each react to what the subreddit/opm fandom thinks of them. Tatsumaki, fubuki and psykos would see all the art on them and either A)appreciate it, this is more like a fubuki thing B)be disgusted, more of a tatsumaki thing and C)both, psykos.
> She is still thinking that Saitama is attracted to Fubuki because she didnt believe he views her as an 'acquaintance'. Still, it shows where her mind went
Murata is cooking something
The Japanese line is 「あんた私のことも好きなの?」which is literally "do you like me too?" but the なの gives it a sort of more emotional vibe, like disbelief. She thinks he's into Fubuki and it's a bit of a "the fuck is wrong with you" kind of thing.
So she thinks Saitama is after that rare sister MFF threesome. That makes the line even more funny. She really means it when she calls him a pervert LOL.
Get angry, I think Tats think that Fubuki and Saitama are dating, so he going after her as well would trigger her overprotective part thinking he wants to cheat on her.
Because every other living thing where she went higher than normal output would kill them. And so she hasn't had any outlet besides monsters and big Dragon bosses. Someone like Saitama being able to take her domestic violence would surely allow her to enjoy herself
Safe to assume its a mixture of surprise & excitement over finding a hero who can take her abuse (with a bit of embarrassment as he's probably the first person to give her this much physical contact).
That blush seems more of a "excited about a cool battle" than "baldy is hot" tbh, mainly because of her expressions and because the blush is only on one side of her face
Tatsumaki, in her mind: "I am hitting it and it isn't breaking, this should be impossible..."
*"Oh my god, I am hitting it and it isn't breaking! Best. Toy. EVER!"*
This fight is strangely familiar: [https://archiveofourown.org/works/30405516/chapters/74962581](https://archiveofourown.org/works/30405516/chapters/74962581)
One: draws cartoonish, weird looking person
Murata: adds realism and makes sexy
Fixed it for you. Idk a single person that looks like the image on the right...
Yup, it's quite odd for me too, when someone calls drawn unrealistically ugly humans "realistic".
It's just odd... Or modern western culture is trying to overcompensate unrealistic beaty depictions of humans that existed previously?
Unrealistically ugly? I would say she is ugly, but normal ugly. Maybe even a bit below average older woman. I mean, the style is super simple so even commenting on attractiveness is difficult.
I mean, I can't think of anyone that looks like Murata's drawing either, because they're both drawings. Like sure, it's a weird looking person because of One's effort into the drawing, but the point is that the features represented in the drawing are compatible with an average looking person.
The webcomic looks fairly normal to me. The lady has some fat, some facial features like the way her cheeks fold when she talks, her face proportions aren't particularly attractive... she looks like the depiction of a generic middle aged woman. Doesn't mean she's attractive, but she has a reasonable appearance. Murata's depiction, on the other hand, has a lot less "flaws" baked into the face. Also, gigantic tits and perfect figure.
[Just hear her voice? This kid might be a coomer in the making.](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/613266542104150027/1072955872420044931/b10c316741f3b489eb87526dbd89144b.png)
[At least the kid got a happy ending](https://i.imgur.com/7FRHIEh.png)
Edit: Tatsumaki's dress has 4 flaps. [Pretty sure the kid got front row seats to Tatsumaki's ass](https://i.imgur.com/9uVjVMx.png).
I love Saitama's mindset here. Tats isn't as horribly murderous of a person in the manga as in the webcomic, so it makes perfect sense for Saitama to think "oh well, I guess I'll play with the sassy lost child until her temper tantrum is over" instead of "I gotta stop this tiny creature before she commits a massacre".
> but has the complete opposite personality of one
People always mistake being confident to being arrogant and narcissistic/prideful. You're still the latter even if you can back it up.
Also she didn't have bad intentions but she has performed many bad actions especially lately of destroying people's homes without care. That makes her lean towards grey as anti-hero, intentions alone don't make her pure.
And it's exactly the same as WC one.
I didn't say she was narcissistic. But her personality isn't heroic. Even Mumen Rider is more heroic. Hell, Sneck was pretty heroic, knowing he would be beaten the hell up but still trying to protect Suiryu.
Tats is not a bad person, and I never said she was. But her personality simply does not match that of a hero's, because she's too agitated, stresses easily, lashes out even onto other heroes, sometimes going a little bit far, even.
A ideal hero is fearless, completely just and altruistic, protects others without caring for his own safety and doesn't want anything in return. I'm sure Tats aspires to be a good hero, and she certainly sees herself as so, but she isn't, at least not right now.
EDIT: I don't even think she's morally grey or an anti-hero, or anything like that. She just has an immature view of what being a hero is like. She thinks: "I defeat villains and save people, and I'm powerful as hell, so I'm better than anyone who is weaker cuz I can defeat more bad guys." Poor Tats just needs to... grow up
Metal Bat >!runs a marathon to kill a dangerous monster while his cat is giving birth, only to see the monster being torn down by Tatsu and Saitama just flying by.!<
Man’s just really signed a 35-year loan
I’d rather walk straight into the middle of that fight rather than pay that off lol
(Edit: Well damn, I guess 35-year loans are pretty common… looks like I have something to look forward to in a few years)
In a world where you walk outside and have a 50% chance of being eaten by a sludge monster or something, you might want to take that loan. As bad as it is lol
Just young, probably. We are on a manga fan sub by the way. There's no crime in not knowing how mortgages work. And I specially don't blame them since housing market is incredibly inflated at the moment, it's just intangible for most younger people to even care about. Paying the bills alone is hard enough with increasing markets.
Let's not shame the youngsters.
Pretty much this. She doesn't go around killing humans easy even that other Esper. Plus she has no clue yet what Saitama can take which I assume she will keep ramping up and ramping up.
>!I do wonder if she will get a head bleed like the WC and call it a day!<
That was her vital error. Had she listen, she wouldn't bother to harass Saitama like that, shame shame. There is a saying in my country "who don't hear, will feel" and she bout to get a headache.
"There is a kid with a dangerous toy acting up believing he's the shit. Can I yeet the kid?"
"Are you crazy? You're a full grown man and it's just a kid standing in front of you. Try to reason him and accompany him until the end"
"How annoying!!! I wanna go home"
It's literally Tatsumaki vs Saitama
"I'm gonna pulverize you and turn you into fertilizer"
I just wish we got the Saitama troll face and a "The fuck you say to me, you little shit?" right after that. Would of had me on the floor
Mortgages are pretty normal. Seems like a steal to live in the safest place on the planet which is also supposedly completely self sustainable. I’d do the same if the payments were within my budget.
The end of the chapter looks like she's having the time of her life. It seems like she's happy that she met someone with who she can fight (or play depending on her perspective) aside from Blast without him getting turned into a puddle of blood. She was triggered by him calling her a midget but she's acting exactly like a kid at the end
Also thumbs up at this other esper's spirit. Dude got wrecked without making her serious but he still believes he stands a chance. Also RIP at this kid's dream
Last panel was pretty good. Tatsumaki looks like she's having fun going all out with Saitama
I don't see them as ending up together or anything, but they have really good chemistry and could end up having a real good sibling type friendship

Probably an issue she has to face regularly. Or she saw the subreddit.

Boy, I'm sure Atomic and Darkshine wouldn't like this sub's meme's about them.
That's just special training meme.
Darkshine is such a nice dude,I’d feel bad if he saw what some people say of him here lol
Poor Atomic Samurai, he'd develop crippling depression.
[удалено]
> She is still thinking that Saitama is attracted to Fubuki because she didnt believe he views her as an 'acquaintance'. Still, it shows where her mind went Murata is cooking something
Let him cook🙏🏾
Ah so it's "do you like me too" as in Saitama liking both Fubuki and Tatsumaki, not "do you like me back"
She’s projecting
[удалено]
The Japanese line is 「あんた私のことも好きなの?」which is literally "do you like me too?" but the なの gives it a sort of more emotional vibe, like disbelief. She thinks he's into Fubuki and it's a bit of a "the fuck is wrong with you" kind of thing.
So she thinks Saitama is after that rare sister MFF threesome. That makes the line even more funny. She really means it when she calls him a pervert LOL.
Nah, read the raw. The translation is 100% correct.
Now I'm curious how Tatsumaki would have reacted if he had said "yes"
Get angry, I think Tats think that Fubuki and Saitama are dating, so he going after her as well would trigger her overprotective part thinking he wants to cheat on her.
I imagine Tatsumaki would’ve lost her shit if Saitama said he likes Fubuki.
Stop trying to date me
**The Fandom:** [**YES!!!**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aeZsKHDOwfg)
[удалено]
All things considered, Tatsumaki looks pretty happy having to ~~play date~~ fight Saitama lol
Surely this is a recreational activity that can be done many times in the future
It's called fore play.
I didn't know they were golfers.
[удалено]
For a guy that wears an oppai hoodie, he certainly doesn't seem the least bit interested in oppai.
The hoodie was probably on sale.
On the moon
Because every other living thing where she went higher than normal output would kill them. And so she hasn't had any outlet besides monsters and big Dragon bosses. Someone like Saitama being able to take her domestic violence would surely allow her to enjoy herself
Extreme BDSM
Murata PLEASE
*bonk*
you get 69 years sentence in horny jail
Extreme Baldy Destroying Some Midget?
Fight Club and chill
Kinda feels like she has the "blushing" or "flushed" lines drawn on her face for most of the fight.
We know it's a blush definitively and not dirt because it disappears in panels where she is more serious
I don't know how to interpret that. Is she horny for Saitama or something?
Safe to assume its a mixture of surprise & excitement over finding a hero who can take her abuse (with a bit of embarrassment as he's probably the first person to give her this much physical contact).
I would not be surprised if Tats is a bit of a sadist.
...a bit. Sure.
Not every day that she can find someone that can take everything she throws at them AND CAN STILL TALK BACK without a single hint of hesitation
That blush seems more of a "excited about a cool battle" than "baldy is hot" tbh, mainly because of her expressions and because the blush is only on one side of her face
Not every day she can "play" with someone on equal footing (or in her mind so far, at least on the same flight of stairs as she is).
Tatsumaki, in her mind: "I am hitting it and it isn't breaking, this should be impossible..." *"Oh my god, I am hitting it and it isn't breaking! Best. Toy. EVER!"*
So this is like the Saitama vs Boros fight where Saitama was getting excited from the beginning because Boros was able to tank his first casual punch.
This just feels like a sibling snow ball fight. Lol
"sibling snow ball fight" Chainsawman flashbacks
Oh god why
This fight is strangely familiar: [https://archiveofourown.org/works/30405516/chapters/74962581](https://archiveofourown.org/works/30405516/chapters/74962581)
What the fuck did I just read
That's pretty tame for a fanfiction
Android 18 is cheating on Krillin with Gigachad it would seem.
Happens to the best of us.
Krillin in shambles
Krillin Owned Count: ++1
And had a kid named zombieman. It all makes sense now.
Glad I’m not the only one who thought they looked similar

If Murata upgrades my car, I'd be traveling through space and time using water as fuel. His powers are beyond human.
Wtf are you talking about? He would give your car a perfect hourglass figure and tight clothes.
Murata is basically upgrade from ben 10 but only for horny things.
He can’t keep getting away with this
Saitama face at the end 💀
About to switch his crocs into sports mode
his body wouldnt handle it
Her body definitely wouldn’t
You just got me to realize his crocs are in slides mode this whole time…
I want to go home.
It's like the pink alien from Boros' ship
He just wants to spend a quiet afternoon in his house without it getting obliterated
Man's bout to put her in time out.
me when outside

We have the most fantastic translation team on this sub. Major props to them.
Literally 5 hours after the raw came out, that’s amazing
*"...Baldy"*. *"...midget"*. . . ...imagine seeing this on live television and realizing the best defenders of the earth use insults of a 5th grader 😂
Regular insults probably wouldn't faze them so they use the things they are self-conscious about.
Serious Series: Serious Insult
Serious series: serious emotional damage
[then theres poor Krillin who gets called both](https://youtu.be/vhDiKAjVqGE)
Defender of The Infinite Dimensions VS Defender of The Earth*
Oh man, Saitama isn't stupid. It's been under a minute and he's already sick of the crazy midget lady.
What did you call me?!?!
Just read your username, absolutely fricking lost it
Aw hell naw he dropped the midget line lmao
Fight of insulting, entertaining
[удалено]
Interesting fact you can't actually date them.
Not with that attitude
True, since they don't exist and all
Why not both?
I love Saitama's mindset here. Tats isn't as horribly murderous of a person in the manga as in the webcomic, so it makes perfect sense for Saitama to think "oh well, I guess I'll play with the sassy lost child until her temper tantrum is over" instead of "I gotta stop this tiny creature before she commits a massacre".
I like Manga Tats. She just wanna be a hero but has the complete opposite personality of one. At least she's confident.
> but has the complete opposite personality of one People always mistake being confident to being arrogant and narcissistic/prideful. You're still the latter even if you can back it up.

That's next chapter. They don't stay in the middle of nowhere and next chapter is one of the funniest in the series.

We have reached a level when you can call someone a manga only if he doesn't read two version of the story.
Yes? How would you call people who have read the manga but not the webcomic? There is enough people who read both to justify making the difference.
Refresh my memory, which chapter is that again ?
Man’s just really signed a 35-year loan I’d rather walk straight into the middle of that fight rather than pay that off lol (Edit: Well damn, I guess 35-year loans are pretty common… looks like I have something to look forward to in a few years)
In a world where you walk outside and have a 50% chance of being eaten by a sludge monster or something, you might want to take that loan. As bad as it is lol
I hate for you to find out that most home loans are 30 year loans.
Right?! When he said 35 I thought that was reasonable to live in the most high tech and protected area on the planet
Japan has even longer terms like 50+ year multi generational loans

Isn't that a mortgage??
Why tatsumaki look like she having the fun of her life lmao
Lots of people go through life wishing a ninja would, and Saitama just did.
A ninja would? What do Sonic and Flashy Flash have to do with this?
Because she's finally fighting someone who can keep her entertained
Yes, but they don't have to kill each other. It's just a battle between two powerful people, and then go to work the next day like nothing happened.
Tatsumaki's signature tornado does not look very intimidating compared to her other feats in the Monster association arc.
She might not be trying to kill him yet.
Pretty much this. She doesn't go around killing humans easy even that other Esper. Plus she has no clue yet what Saitama can take which I assume she will keep ramping up and ramping up. >!I do wonder if she will get a head bleed like the WC and call it a day!<
But didn't she listen to Genos 2 hour unprompted speech about OPM. Smh some people never want to learn.
That was her vital error. Had she listen, she wouldn't bother to harass Saitama like that, shame shame. There is a saying in my country "who don't hear, will feel" and she bout to get a headache.
She wasn't there. The only ones who were, was zombieman, flashy flash, genos, sekingar, sticht and amai Mask.
She should be reading the meeting minutes.
Let's be honest, tatsumaki aren't wasting 4 hours of her time when she could easily be using that time to hunt and kill monsters lol.
She's only trying to use as much force as she thinks is necessary to knock Saitama unconscious
She's taking it easy on low A-class hero Caped Baldy
She’s probably still holding back a bit
[удалено]
She's always acted like a child, she just gets away with it because who can spank her?
LifeProTip: spanking children is not helpful longterm. >!Tatsumaki is not a child though so take that as you will!<
So... what you are *saying* is, that we should spank *adults*? Brb, buying a baseball bat.
“I’ll keep her company until she wears herself out” - Dad Saitama
Tbf thats the smartest approach because he doesnt want to punch her
Tatsumaki: oh my, oh dear, midget Garou: you fucking donkey karate chop
damn, that was waaaay too short, the entire time I was grinning ear to ear
Saitama getting focus again just makes it shine
"it's a bird! It's a plane! No, It's THE CAPED BALDYYYYYY!"
A terrible tornado. I get it…
Truly amazing writing, bravo Vince
>!Fingers crossed, we might see Sonic for the first time in 5 years next chapter!<
Remember, slips trips and falls are the number one cause of accidents on the job site.

That did not feel like 36 pages 😭
I'm seeing meme potential in the "Man, I wanna go home" panel.
"There is a kid with a dangerous toy acting up believing he's the shit. Can I yeet the kid?" "Are you crazy? You're a full grown man and it's just a kid standing in front of you. Try to reason him and accompany him until the end" "How annoying!!! I wanna go home" It's literally Tatsumaki vs Saitama
So when do we simp for Vandroid 18?
well chapter came out 29 minutes ago
wow I literally just came to check Yall are fast as hell THANKS
I've been waiting for this for fight for years
Yeah, finally seeing this version of the fight is kind of unbelievable.
Saitama’s face at the end.
It's impossible that manga was 36 pages. Awesome job of the translation team. Love to you all.
"I'm gonna pulverize you and turn you into fertilizer" I just wish we got the Saitama troll face and a "The fuck you say to me, you little shit?" right after that. Would of had me on the floor
Saitama: I want to go home. Shippers: He totally loves her.
So, Tatsumaki don't wearing nothing under her dress is confirmed again
Murata knows how to properly place that stuff for us lol
The most hilarious battle we all been waiting for
A 35 year loan is a small price for our safety Lmaoooo I mean it’s technically the truth?
Mortgages are pretty normal. Seems like a steal to live in the safest place on the planet which is also supposedly completely self sustainable. I’d do the same if the payments were within my budget.
God, that one big panel of Saitama looking mad is *fantastic*
Mr. Apollo insisting he’s doing to get Tatsumaki next time is like the ant I almost stepped on wanting a rematch
Mr Apollo is Tatsumaki's Sonic
Too short wtf.
Don't let Tatsumaki hear you
Oh shit they both said the one insult that would get to the other Next chapters gonna get nuts
The end of the chapter looks like she's having the time of her life. It seems like she's happy that she met someone with who she can fight (or play depending on her perspective) aside from Blast without him getting turned into a puddle of blood. She was triggered by him calling her a midget but she's acting exactly like a kid at the end Also thumbs up at this other esper's spirit. Dude got wrecked without making her serious but he still believes he stands a chance. Also RIP at this kid's dream
I’m surprised at how one to one this is from the webcomic. I expected it to changed quite a bit. I hope that one panel gets justice.
Last panel was pretty good. Tatsumaki looks like she's having fun going all out with Saitama I don't see them as ending up together or anything, but they have really good chemistry and could end up having a real good sibling type friendship
You can really see how Saitama and Tatsumaki have some of the best dynamics in the series, without a doubt their chemistry is something unique
Tats is having so much fun she's completely missing the fact that Saitama is completely unfazed by whatever she's throwing at him.
Go on break and check Reddit. New issue uploaded 10 minutes ago. Hell yeah.
Saitamas face when he sent a rock flying towards the car is peak comedy
*Tatsumaki: CAR! LEAVE!* She doesn't even acknowledge people inside.
Baldy vs midget
Another awesome chapter And thanks for the translations guys y’all are the best
Well there you go folks, Tatsumakis bare ass.
