I hope Suiryu gets his ass kicked here and now; being humbled turns him into a surprisingly bearable guy.

It's a shame Garou is about to fall off the wagon though. To be fair, he isn't hunting Suiryu; the dude seems happy to jump right into Garou's net.

Manga Suiryu and Suiko would make a great team; Suiryu learned the value of heroes, and Suiko had the right mindset from the start. Here's hoping they start training together again; I'm sure it's what Suicho would have wanted.

Maybe they'll fill the void Silver Fang left in the hero world with his departure; lord knows neither could fill those shoes on their own, but together their feet might be big enough. They'd both make solid low-to-mid S-Class heroes.

Bruh at the pace we are going there will be no HA left. I think the ending will lead to either no more monsters or very little monsters taken care by independent heroes and police. The increase in monsters and their power is incredible, there's more destruction every day and the only safe place in the world is Q city and walking near Saitama. Either the world comes to an end or monsters get stopped, I think my theory of God getting closer to earth birthing more monsters makes sense, once Saitama pops that balloon things will calm down.

I'm guessing that the Neo Heroes are causing and coordinating the monster attacks. Child Emperor finding a chip in the monster's skull, the neo heroes obsession with making controllable cyborgs, and their desire to wipe out the over extended Hero Association indicate it as a likely possibility.

I expect that eventually the neo heroes and the hero association will both fall apart, with many heroes joining a monster division of the police for stable living and accountability, some going off to do their own thing, and a few hang out with Saitama and be heroes for fun.

I think Neo Heroes were definitely involved with the coordinated 5 dragon attacks, but the monster attacks have been steadily increasing for years, Saitama said so, and Tatsumaki noticed it too. It'd be weird for it to be just the Neo Heroes who just made public appearance recently. God/monster cells, there's something out there that is monsterificating people and things and I believe for the world to be peaceful that something needs a punch.

He has to and I hope Suiryu switches sides to follow Saitama.

Frankly, I'm more interested in Suiko. Stood her ground against a Dragon-level machine-god, and instead of calling for help or fleeing when she had the chance, she kept fighting and was simply frustrated that she lost.

That kid is gonna go places, and she didn't even need a kick in the ass to buckle down and go the distance.

By contrast, even with his character development, Manga Suiryu still needs mental conditioning, and Webcomic Suiryu is still an absolute tool. I'm rooting for both versions, but I've never really liked the guy very much. Lol.

Wait. Where's silver fang?

u/GoldPilot More jokes than Bazooka Joe Oct 09 '20

He's just "Bang" now. He retired after the raid.

u/Sandeep184392 Oct 09 '20

He retired? Wtf? Just like that? How did i miss this? He will surely return in the future chapters?

Yeah, between the Garou debacle, his advanced age, and his intention to teach the weak and pass on his style, he felt it was time.

It's sad, but I can't argue with the logic. He's eighty-one; the world may need him, but he deserves to stand down and pursue his own goals.

Calling it now - the Garou redemption arc will have him eventually realise that to truly redeem himself he needs to refine Bang's WCRSF style which he never mastered. He returns to Bang to be a disciple again, Bang accepts, and at some point the old master will return to help his student in the endgame of whatever happens in OPM.

He's already returned. Though not as a focus. King went to him for training and he was refused.

u/GoldPilot More jokes than Bazooka Joe Oct 09 '20

When was that established? It's my understanding that his resignation was permanent.

u/napoleonandthedog It's fighting spirit! Oct 09 '20

He wasn't working as a hero. Just in his dojo when king was looking to get strong. Bang misinterpreted as king wanting to get stronger and sent him to bomb. Bomb misinterpreted and sent him to another dojo ad infinitum

u/GoldPilot More jokes than Bazooka Joe Oct 09 '20

Oh, I see. You mean he returned in chapters.

I think Sandeep meant "He will surely return" as a hero, not "He will surely return" as in more time on-panel. Lol.

Oh whoops. Misunderstanding there
