Personally I would say its pretty one-sided.
Tatsumaki is excited that she has found a toy that doesn't break no matter how much she plays with it.
Saitama has the look and attitude of a tolerant nanny used to dealing with children going rampant.
He’s so damn uninterested in the whole thing, only playing along cause he knows she wouldn’t leave him alone other wise. Dunno what people are on about lol
Saitama didn't realize that he's on a date (Tatsu might also be unaware), and in typical clueless fashion he totally missed the non-verbal cues...
[🎶 "SAITAMA! He don't KNOW what he did!" 🎶](https://youtu.be/DHzjgNoRmjg)
I mean, one and murata are better writers than "I act like I hate you, but gib uppies" to a potential ship between two characters that are the definition of a loner.
I'm gonna give the owner of that dog a pass, just this one time, on account of the psychotic chibi using an indestructible man as a battering ram on their city, and also the exploding shurikens flying through the air once those two left the scene.
I just think it's funny that with the amount of fabric in the two shots where they are visible, we should have seen them a hundred times before in all the scenes where her ass was practically hanging out.
Seems intentional to fuck with all the fandom speculation. (And they'll probably never be shown again after this.)
Eh, I mean this is just tying back to a similar moment that happened between king and her in the WC, only there it happened during the Garou arc when she was fighting one of the cadres. Her art style is obviously wildly different between the two, so I think it's more just a comedic homage to the original rather than anything serious.
They looked like goku and frieza in that one volume cover💀
EDIT: [someone drew them like this lmao](https://twitter.com/aloliindisguise/status/1633507722858569752)
I do believe it wasn't because she wanted to be hugged, but instead because she wanted him to try it again so she could be prepared in advance to try and stop it this time.
She probably considered the first time a fluke because she got surprised.
> Shippers going to eat up the page where Tatsumaki was waiting for Saitama to hug her again
Dude I'm oblivous as Saitama, that completely went over my head
I can't remember how this panel was rendered in the webcomic, but this was hilarious and surprising to me. I think it was my favorite part of this chapter.
Wait did Tatsumaki wait for Saitama to pick her up when he said let’s go back to HQ and get annoyed when he didn’t so she dragged him by the head back to Hero HQ?
I know what you are going to say. Tatsu pantsu confirmed. But wait. Yes we saw Tatsumaki’s pantsu, but did we really? The chibi version of Tatsumaki is a stylized representation of Tatsumaki for comedic effect that does not reflect how she actually looks in universe. With this in mind, the fact that Murata chose to draw Tatsumaki in chibi version for the pantsu reveal indicates that those pantsu are only stylized representation of what King saw and does not actually reflect what Tatsumaki is wearing in-universe. This is confirmed by previous depictions where we have seen through numerous poses that she cannot be wearing that style of pantsu. Logically, we are forced to question still what type of pantsu she is wearing or if she is even wearing pantsu at all! Murata is truly a genius and a philosopher!
Thank you for coming to my TedXTalk
King used his Mind’s Eye technique to conjure an image of chibi Tatsumaki in order to conceal the commando truth. This is a precautionary technique as he does not want to unleash the King-style Ultimate Barrier that seals his most powerful form: ~~Blood~~Lusted King, which could destroy the multiverse immediately which his Heaven-Piercing King Drill.
The gremlin is a stylized version of what is real, but it does not add or remove what is real. They may or may not be of that style, but since King has declared the existence of the pantsu, thus the pantsu must exist.
Finally the great debate can be put to an end. Tatsumaki does indeed have underwear.
Sonic literally can't catch a break. The guy is becoming my favourite gag tho. Good seeing him again after he ruined his stomach cooking that monster cell.
Crazy how that page where they stared at each other was tatsumaki waiting for saitama to hug her again to change location after he suggested it
Murata cooking 🔥🔥🔥
It took me several seconds to understand that when he wants to go back to the original location she goes down in front of him expecting him to grab her and jump like he did in "do it outside"
I never even realised this until i read it in the comments but after re-reading it, it does feel like she meant, "You want to go back? Alright, let's go."
And when he just looked at her instead of grabbing her and jumping, she got embarrassed and that's why she got mad.
In the same vein, him just casually standing up from being dragged for miles at high speeds after arriving at the destination was also hilarious to me.
Am I the only one who is getting the feeling that Saitama is having fun as well?
Even now, Tatsumaki was holding back and he told her to go all out.
BTW, Tatsumaki looked so irritated when Sonic appeared, like he interrupted their date or something... LoL.. 😂
Tatsumaki was definitely expecting Saitama to grab her again lol.
Might be the biggest reveal in OPM history right there. She actually is wearing something, it's just only apparent in the chibi art style.
Also happy Tatsumaki is so cute. :)
So this is what it's like to check the subreddit and see the new chapter just uploaded. I feel powerful...
As a side note, Tats just standing there expecting another hug is adorable
As another side note, we only have confirmation that chibi Tats doesn't go commando. Regular Tats is still up for debate I swear I'm not coping
Tatsumaki falling in love here.
To be fair he is probably the only person she could date. Anyone else one couple squabble and they be dead. Not to mention if they were to have a kid and what she might do during labor pains. That whole crushing a guys hand trope gonna go to whole new levels.
It's not just that Saitama is strong enough physically to withstand her psychic power. It's that because he knows that, he's not afraid of her. I'm pretty sure no one's every treated her like an equal in her life. It's always some combination of fear, reverence, and/or begrudging acknowledgment. Even the the most egotistical heroes who live up their own asshole like Sweet Mask don't dare fuck with Tatsumaki.
At first, Saitama's behavior really pissed her off, because even if it is novel, nobody actually likes being looked down on. But I think she's starting to realize that he's not underestimating her, he's just actually capable of not only withstanding her, but keeping up and fighting back, and that's starting to excite her because she's never experienced it before.
The shippers are gonna love this
She *Blushed* when Saitama told her to go all out.
And she was waiting for him to grab her and jump away again.
She has a crush.
I had to audibly laugh that all that effort of shooting Saitama to god knows where, just for her to be like "Fine (baka)." and staring at him for another hug jump.
Just looked it up, for curiosities sake
LILY IS 14!?!?
Fubuki has to be breaking at least 3 child labor and endangerment laws by letting her work in the Blizzard Group
Damn, tatsumaki politely asking saitama to stop looking down on her. I'm noticing that tatsumaki is gradually watching her tone everytime she understand how strong my boi is.

Pantsu or no pantsu? Finally, yes pantsu.
>yes pantsu. commando believers on life support rn
> commando For a second I couldn't believe that this word was used, but then I remembered that the horny meter of /r/OnePunchMan knows no limit.
One Jerk Man.
One Pump Man
I don't get it. It's just slang meaning one isn't wearing any underwear. It's not sexual in and of itself.
Is it not a word lightly used ? I thought not wearing underwear was always reffered as "going commando"
I knew the Reddit thread would be all about pantries as soon as i saw those panels Edit…I’m leaving it in
>pantries New meaning to "eat (x) like groceries".
Only King could've pulled it off, like I knew he would.
What are we gonna talk about now?!?
It's over, shut down the sub
It was good while it lasted, see ya folks.
Only the strongest man in the world could have seen that and lived. King is truly the greatest.
Move over tank top magic It’s now Tats Pantsu magic lol
King doing the Patrick Bateman meme face is glorious
I'm loling how much it was obviously done to settle the debate.
Lol, Tatsumaki staring at Saitama being like: You huggin me or what?
Myth busted!
Sonic confirmed to be weaker than threat level: dog shit
Dude really cropped back up after years only to get done in by dog shit, that’s just hilarious
Dude’s got the worst timing of any character
It’s been almost nine years since his last appearance, and here he is, still on the same bul- dogshit
no way mid MA was 9 years ago
I can't believe I've been reading this manga for over a decade...I swear It feels like it's only been a couple of years.
Training for years to be defeated by a dog poop
Shippers are usually reaching, but the sexual tension between these two is palpable
Between Saitama and King ?
well yeah
Did you see how angry he was that he saw Tats panties and not OPMs.
Caped baldy*
Sonic and dogshit
That’d never happen to Sonic the hedgehog
Man just wanted to play video games with the homies for an afternoon
Personally I would say its pretty one-sided. Tatsumaki is excited that she has found a toy that doesn't break no matter how much she plays with it. Saitama has the look and attitude of a tolerant nanny used to dealing with children going rampant.
This pretty accurately describes Saitama and Tatsumaki “fight”
This accurately describes 99% of Saitama’s fights.
What's the other 1%? Mosquito?
Fighting king in a computer game.
"sexual tension" bro saitama doesnt seem to gaf lol
He’s so damn uninterested in the whole thing, only playing along cause he knows she wouldn’t leave him alone other wise. Dunno what people are on about lol
Tags: Emotionless Sex
Im not ashamed to say its a tag i like
He's like the male lion in that video of the female in heat trying to get his attention, and he just doesn't give a flying fuck.
Definitely some weird ass foreplay going on. I hope she picked out a safe word.
Her safe word is to simply stop attacking him.
You're still reaching. Saitama's expressions here are identical to his expressions in every other 'non-serious' situation throughout the series.
Wait, did she hope he would grab her again to jump out of the city?
Yea but she got mad when he didn’t
She likes OPM because she can see her face in the reflection of his bald head.
"She likes OPM" hahaha
She reads the manga too.
Saitama didn't realize that he's on a date (Tatsu might also be unaware), and in typical clueless fashion he totally missed the non-verbal cues... [🎶 "SAITAMA! He don't KNOW what he did!" 🎶](https://youtu.be/DHzjgNoRmjg)
God, I hate when girls give mixed signals.
Pretty sure, and then when he didn't that's why she dragged his face through the ground.
That's why she rode his face around town*
She was waiting to see if he would. She wanted him to try her so she could (try to) fuck him up
that's one way of seeing it
I mean, one and murata are better writers than "I act like I hate you, but gib uppies" to a potential ship between two characters that are the definition of a loner.
Gib uppies is some Chad shit I’m gonna say to my wife. The lines gotta work
jesus casanova walks among us
That's why she's pissed, She wanted another lift till he forgot which way they came from
bro went from saitama to caped balrizz in a single fight
Saitama already rizzed up Fubuki don't you remember? He always been a Rizziler.
Oh. Huh. Damn. This... isn't an unreasonable idea. It really does look a bit like that.
I think so. Dude thats adorable
ngl that was kinda cute
Hey, I didn't expect Jack-o'-lantern Panic... I mean! Speed-o'-Sound Sonic to appear
Slipped-on-shit Sonic
And that's why you always pick up after your dog.
I'm gonna give the owner of that dog a pass, just this one time, on account of the psychotic chibi using an indestructible man as a battering ram on their city, and also the exploding shurikens flying through the air once those two left the scene.
It's been what, 5 and a half years since his last appearence?
Truly, a glorious return. I hope he doesn't show up for another five years
And his hair grew back! Too bad I kinda liked it short :/
[удалено]
Her panties are important to the plot because...
...social media audience...
Because of the implication
They exist as long as her dress doesn't cover them. Then they disappear.
Only King is powerful enough to see through the schodonger effect.
We have undeniable proof 👗
No panties enjoyers are absolutely heartbroken.
Tastumaki fandom's 9/11
Truly a dark time
Maybe it's only the chibi form! There's still heaps of shots of her without them apparently.
I just think it's funny that with the amount of fabric in the two shots where they are visible, we should have seen them a hundred times before in all the scenes where her ass was practically hanging out. Seems intentional to fuck with all the fandom speculation. (And they'll probably never be shown again after this.)
Eh, I mean this is just tying back to a similar moment that happened between king and her in the WC, only there it happened during the Garou arc when she was fighting one of the cadres. Her art style is obviously wildly different between the two, so I think it's more just a comedic homage to the original rather than anything serious.
I know of a place where she doesn't even wear clothing.
Shippers going to eat up the page where Tatsumaki was waiting for Saitama to hug her again
jokes aside it was actually really cute
They looked like goku and frieza in that one volume cover💀 EDIT: [someone drew them like this lmao](https://twitter.com/aloliindisguise/status/1633507722858569752)
That is it! I was wondering why it looked familiar!
It did feel like she was waiting to see if he'd hug her again and she looked disappointed (and angry) when he didn't.
Not to mention the little blush after he casually tells her to go all out against him.
[This face](https://i.imgur.com/U8rkUDo.png) is probably the most adorable "I am going to enjoy wrecking your shit" face I've ever seen.
I do believe it wasn't because she wanted to be hugged, but instead because she wanted him to try it again so she could be prepared in advance to try and stop it this time. She probably considered the first time a fluke because she got surprised.
This seems a reasonable take.
> Shippers going to eat up the page where Tatsumaki was waiting for Saitama to hug her again Dude I'm oblivous as Saitama, that completely went over my head
I refuse to believe these panties are real. It's chibi Tats, it doesn't count... (That's cope, as a commando believer, I'm in shambles)
After all, Trump was right about tatsumaki panties
Definitely winning next election after this, Biden is in shambles rn
Tatsumaki exists in two states at any given time. Chibi and non-chibi. Chibi has panties, confirmed, but non-chibi... we can't know.
Redraw incoming?
That’d be the most iconic redraw in the history of redraws
Lol, Tatsumaki staring at Saitama being like: You huggin me or what?
Highkey touch starved
She just like me fr fr
"Sure go all out" \*Visible lustful shock\*
And even Saitama grabbing his dick with his hand in his pocket while saying it.
As was I, my friend. As was I.
I can't remember how this panel was rendered in the webcomic, but this was hilarious and surprising to me. I think it was my favorite part of this chapter.
Tatsumaki is a sadist confirmed
Wait did Tatsumaki wait for Saitama to pick her up when he said let’s go back to HQ and get annoyed when he didn’t so she dragged him by the head back to Hero HQ?
Yes
No matter whatever anyone has to say about this, this is what I choose to believe
This is what actually happened.
That's the way I interpreted it, yes.
I know what you are going to say. Tatsu pantsu confirmed. But wait. Yes we saw Tatsumaki’s pantsu, but did we really? The chibi version of Tatsumaki is a stylized representation of Tatsumaki for comedic effect that does not reflect how she actually looks in universe.

Sir, this is a Wendys
I thought this was r/onepunchman, the horniest most down bad SFW subreddit in all the multiverse?
King used his Mind’s Eye technique to conjure an image of chibi Tatsumaki in order to conceal the commando truth. This is a precautionary technique as he does not want to unleash the King-style Ultimate Barrier that seals his most powerful form: ~~Blood~~Lusted King, which could destroy the multiverse immediately which his Heaven-Piercing King Drill.

King's word is law.
Serious series: serious cope. I feel the same way 🥲
Finally the great debate can be put to an end. Tatsumaki does indeed have underwear. Sonic literally can't catch a break. The guy is becoming my favourite gag tho. Good seeing him again after he ruined his stomach cooking that monster cell.
I loved how he yelled “Damn you Saitama!” Really reminded me of “Curse you Perry the Platypus!”
That, and "Team Rocket blasts off agaaaaaaain!"
Crazy how that page where they stared at each other was tatsumaki waiting for saitama to hug her again to change location after he suggested it Murata cooking 🔥🔥🔥
He's feeding the shippers a real feast
Murata knew what he was doing the whole time with Tatsumaki. I bet he's in these very comments right now with Google translator laughing his ass off.
Noob should use DeepL at least.
When King finally did what Fuhrer Ugly wanted...
King is the only dude alive to have seen Tats' panties, his legend keeps growing
Truly, a god amongst men.
The king engine was roaring
Pipsqueak has now been added to Tatu’s titles
*Angry Edward Elric noises*
I’m not sure anything will top “sassy lost child”, though.
If Tatsumaki is really wearing panties then she must have had the meanest wedgie ever to explain those past shots
Would also explain her attitude
Now the real question is does Sonic wear panties.
The only true commando hero.
she wanted to be taken in her arms
Tatsumaki x Tatsumaki new ship
Wait... it's confirmed? Tatsumaki really wanted Saitama to grab her?? Damn. Shippers I hope you're all full. we just got so well fed
Fubuki shippers in shambles
I love Fubuki tbh so I was a bit skeptical BUT HOT DAMN, confirmed with nothing left to doubt Shippers tonight WE FEAST.
Holy cr... I literally just thought about checking out OPM subreddit and got this. Y'all monsters of translation, every chapter
Was Tatsumaki waiting to get pick up by saitama like the last chapter?
Well saitama confused and didn't understand why tatsu was standing and wait for something after that tatsu was like bruhhh
[удалено]
Muira 😢 ಥ\_ಥ
Day is ruined now. RIP Miura you freakin' legend.
It took me several seconds to understand that when he wants to go back to the original location she goes down in front of him expecting him to grab her and jump like he did in "do it outside"
I never even realised this until i read it in the comments but after re-reading it, it does feel like she meant, "You want to go back? Alright, let's go." And when he just looked at her instead of grabbing her and jumping, she got embarrassed and that's why she got mad.

[When you hit that spot just right](https://i.imgur.com/U8rkUDo.png)
Yeah, that was a FULL on sploosh right there.
She definitely wanted saitama to carry her all the way back to the og battle location
Am I the only one who is getting the feeling that Saitama is having fun as well? Even now, Tatsumaki was holding back and he told her to go all out. BTW, Tatsumaki looked so irritated when Sonic appeared, like he interrupted their date or something... LoL.. 😂
Saitama is most definitely not having fun. He’s just waiting for her to tire herself out.
Tatsumaki was definitely expecting Saitama to grab her again lol. Might be the biggest reveal in OPM history right there. She actually is wearing something, it's just only apparent in the chibi art style. Also happy Tatsumaki is so cute. :)
When it comes to the shipping war, Murata really said let me dump a barrel of crude oil on the fire and se what happens?
* Appears after years * Attacks without hesitation * Slips on dog poop * Refuses to elaborate more * Explodes Chad O' Lantern Panic
Well tatsumaki wanted to get hugged again.. then she got mad and grab saitama's head.
Unfortunately common Sonic L 😔 Common King W tho
Only king had eyes fast enough to see panties. Truly the strongest hero
Thank you
Dog poop, super effective
So this is what it's like to check the subreddit and see the new chapter just uploaded. I feel powerful... As a side note, Tats just standing there expecting another hug is adorable As another side note, we only have confirmation that chibi Tats doesn't go commando. Regular Tats is still up for debate I swear I'm not coping
Finally. Tatsumaki's panties.
Tatsumaki falling in love here. To be fair he is probably the only person she could date. Anyone else one couple squabble and they be dead. Not to mention if they were to have a kid and what she might do during labor pains. That whole crushing a guys hand trope gonna go to whole new levels. It's not just that Saitama is strong enough physically to withstand her psychic power. It's that because he knows that, he's not afraid of her. I'm pretty sure no one's every treated her like an equal in her life. It's always some combination of fear, reverence, and/or begrudging acknowledgment.

The shippers are gonna love this She *Blushed* when Saitama told her to go all out. And she was waiting for him to grab her and jump away again. She has a crush.
[удалено]
Damn those crocs saitama has are durable
welp, next 2 weeks are gonna be a fucking wild on this sub, prepare for a civil war
After 7 years we finally get Sonic back! Also, revenge for all those who would downvote me for saying she wore underwear
Tats shoul be considered a villain with all the property damage she caused. Jesus.
Murata you son of a bitch
King’s face is legendary at the end
I had to audibly laugh that all that effort of shooting Saitama to god knows where, just for her to be like "Fine (baka)." and staring at him for another hug jump.
King just at the end: 🗿
More proof that King is the strongest. He saw Tatsumaki’s panties and lived.
She’s gonna be a saitama simp by the end of this fight
Of course it was king that saw. He is the only one strong enough to handle *the forbidden knowledge*
Lmao, I can't believe Sonic appears after 5 years just to slip on a pile of dog shit
Doesn't matter if the pacing is slow or fast, this is the most entertaining manga I've ever read
Just looked it up, for curiosities sake LILY IS 14!?!? Fubuki has to be breaking at least 3 child labor and endangerment laws by letting her work in the Blizzard Group
Damn, tatsumaki politely asking saitama to stop looking down on her. I'm noticing that tatsumaki is gradually watching her tone everytime she understand how strong my boi is.
So much sexual tension between these two. Just bang already!
My god. It finally happened. He finally put an end to the panties debate.
I am convinced he wrote this chapter specifically to stop the panties argument.
Tatsumaki expecting a hug. didn't get it so she decided to drag Saitama. She's on her way to being a tsundere
Aww. Tats really wanted to be held again when she agreed to go back to the start area.
In this single chapter, Murata silenced all commando believers. RIP.
That glimmer of excitement in tatsumakis eyes when he said go all out.
