![]() There is a little bit of poor translation – I can’t read Japanese, ya dingus – and that crazy mosquito women near the end isn’t that great - Although… I think she and the cyborg guy may be micky-takes on your average manga, mosquito woman with her boobiness and generic design, cyborg guy with his blandness and overly-convoluted backstory, and then - oh wait. ![]() It’s full of stupid jokes, and Saitama’s finishing of every super-powered monster in one punch perfectly symbolises the book’s comic nature in how ridiculous it is. What I love about the manga most is how gloriously silly it is. Entertainment wise, One-Punch Man is possibly the best manga I’ve ever read. LOOK AT MY BOOBS OR I’LL KILL YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ”, this ol’ thang is actually very funny, and also original. Whereas Fairy Tail (of which has gone down in my estimation since I gave it 76/100) is just “Hi, I’m Lucy. Unlike quite a lot of Shonen manga nowadays, this one has motivation, back stories and spot on humour. The array of villains is incredible, although they’re all cameo guess stars in what is One-Punch Man’s quest for a proper fight - that he doesn’t end in just one punch. The ridiculously simple design of Saitama, One-Punch Man himself, paired with the deliciously detailed ‘monster’ designs underlines the comic’s feel in one (well, not one, most) page(s). With an instantly likable – and not generic like that DanMachi crap (sorry Cam) – art style, fantastically dynamic action and great, varied character design, I can’t see why anyone wouldn’t like it even slightly. Starting literally with an explosion, this manga knows what it’s doing. Anyway, One-Punch Man is actually amazing. One-Punch Man is actually amazing, rather than DanMachi, which just looks like “beeeeeeeeActually, if Shonen only published things like this and One Piece, I’m sure its reputation would be much better than it is but, for now, all the haters can gather round and say how terrible they are because Fairy Tail and Naruto and DanMachi and so on are awful in their biased opinions. Well, never fear, One-Punch Man is actually badass and there’s gonna be a couple of non-Japanese entertainment related posts to come in the next few days – so don’t be gettin’ all “This site’s not for me” on us. A really safe bet to introduce someone to anime.You’re thinking Stuff and That’s becoming an anime/manga appreciation site now, aren’t you. A lot of fights are literally over in one punch which is too repetitive but often redeemed with a joke.Ī great action comedy, just don't expect anything serious. Most jokes are enjoyable, but there definitely are some misses. Quite enjoyable with a multitude of jokes and plenty action. Same can be said for our heroes, most have some kind shtick to them to use as a joke. Most villains are evil for the sake of being evil, or their reasoning is tied to some joke. ![]() The soundtrack is good but often cycles through the same few songs.Īs said, the visual looks of characters is really fun with the different art styles, but other than that they are quite bland. Just good, nothing to complain about, little to praise. from Dragon Ball Z, but the series still also has its own art style which can be seen on characters such as Tatsumaki. To list a few, Saitama is in the style of Mob Psycho, some characters look like they were ripped straight There are so many characters in different art styles. What really caught my interest on the art side are the character designs. The animation is often the same as any other series and only goes beyond in fight scenes, luckily there is quite a lot of fighting. The story is as bare-bones as can be but compensates with loads of action and comedy. The series is a lot more comedy and action driven than story driven.
