OPM chapter 129 review

KingKira’s View: After teasing us with the prospect of Tatsumaki releasing her full power in the last chapter, One & Murata decided to give us the second half of Garou vs Darkshine and I’m not complaining at all. Just like chapter 126.2 we jumped straight into the action as Garou continues to overwhelm Darkshine with a barrage of attacks, Darkshine throws a punch only for it to be deflected and he receives a devastating blow from Garou which sends him through a wall and he lands several floors below. This scene reminded me of how Darkshine tackled Garou and sent him through several walls in chapter 126.2, Garou has turned the tides in this battle.

We got to see Darkshine’s backstory while he was taking an ass-whooping from Garou and here are my few takeaways from it:

  • Darkshine lacked self-confidence and failed at sports as a youngster.
  • He had a desire to grow and he acted on it by asking his parents for dumbbells.
  • He trained hard and developed his muscles alone by lifting a lot of weights.
  • Garou beating up Darkshine looked great.
  • Darkshine chose the bald look.
  • Darkshine developed his self-confidence by attaining several victories in sports, after this, he joined the Hero Association.

x11

It is then revealed that Darkshine’s former fears begin to grow when defeat draws closer. As Garou continued to dominate the fight Darkshine’s fear of Garou grew until his defeat became certain. Garou pinned his prey to the ground and moved to deliver a fatal double ear strike before memories of Tareo and his younger self going through ear strikes from bullies stopped his attack. I enjoyed how we got insights on both characters in the fight. Darkshine used the opportunity to escape while Garou was in pain from what I assume to be part of a transformation as the clothes embedded on his skin reach his face, Darkshine is suddenly covered in a psychic barrier and he identifies it to be the work of Tatsumaki, the floors around Garou and Darkshine begin to collapse including the one they are on, Garou is immobile on the ground and the black clothes on his skin have gone past his left eye while Darkshine floats to safety, he reaches out to Garou in concern for his safety but feels ashamed after. With the conclusion of this chapter, It is clear that Tatsumaki vs Orochikos is what interrupted this fight.

 

x25

KingKira’s character of the week: Darkshine got his backstory but Garou takes it this week for sure. Garou whooped Darkshine’s ass with relative ease and even decided to have mercy on him and it appears like he is evolving further, I love to see it. Shoutout to Darkshine for putting in work to develop himself, unfortunately, his fears have come back to haunt him.

x8

KingKira’s best scene: All scenes involving Garou beating (bullying) Darkshine, more specifically the opening scene where Garou deflects a punch and attacks Darkshine.

x4

KingKira’s best panel: Gigantic Garou vs Little Darkshine. Murata continues his evolution

x18

Judgment: I’m happy with the conclusion of Garou vs Darkshine as Garou proved to be the stronger fighter. Great fight scenes, epic art as usual, good moments of development for both characters in the chapter and a cliffhanger ending that makes me itch for the next chapter. 9/10

OPM chapter 128 review

KingKira’s View: Amazing chapter from One & Murata this week, even though it came later than usual it was still well worth the wait. The chapter starts with the monsters we saw behind Psykos in chapter 123 (revised version) get absorbed by Orochi, we jump back into the Tatsumaki vs Orochi & Psykos fight and a couple of Orochi snakeheads continue firing blasts which Tatsumaki easily twirls and annihilates along with several other snakeheads around the cavern, Orochi continues attacking Tatsumaki to buy time for him to absorb Psykos, Tatsumaki has a brief flashback while considering Tareo’s safety, I’m happy to see Tats genuinely concerned about saving a life because she usually comes across as a very self-centered character. The flashback alludes to Tatsumaki being the victim of scientific experiments, hopefully, more light is shed on that in the future.

x5

Orochi & Psykos continue merging in a scene so rich in fanservice it could be considered as hentai, the two wrestle for control till they both achieve what I call a perfect union to form “Orochikos”. The initial Orochikos design was a pleasant surprise but not one of my favorite designs from Murata aesthetically speaking. Tatsumaki obliterates more Orochi snakeheads before having a massive clash with Orochikos, Tatsumaki is surprised at how powerful her opponent is and Orochikos takes the initiative in the battle by compressing Tats in her psychic barrier and for the first time in the series, we see Tatsumaki bleed. I must say that Psykos looked incredible in her Amazon-like form while overwhelming Tats. Saitama and Flashy continue to evade Orochi’s slime while saving the toilet fodder monster until Saitama gets fed up and Oneshots the slime after it touches his head. The shockwave from Saitama’s punch coincidentally saves King and Tareo from getting absorbed by Orochi’s slime, Tatsumaki also got saved by Saitama as Orochikos was affected by his punch and this allowed Tats to escape Orochikos. King uses the communicator to relay to the heroes that he has secured Tareo much to Tatsumaki’s delight, now she decides to go all out. The last panel has me very excited to see what happens in the next chapter.    

x21

KingKira’s character of the week: Tatsumaki is my pick this week. She made light work of Orochi’s snakeheads, fought and withstood an onslaught from Orochi-kos, had a brief flashback and is ready to go all out in the next chapter. Respect to Saitama for saving King, Tareo & Tatsumaki with one punch.

x25

KingKira’s best scene: I love the way Murata illustrated Tatsumaki vs Orochi-kos, my favorite part of the fight was when Orochi-kos overwhelmed Tatsumaki. Once again Murata came through with the top tier Psykos fanservice, I love to see it. 

x9

KingKira’s best panel: A few contenders this week but I’ll go with the amazon looking Orochi-kos reversing Tatsumaki’s attack. The last panel with Tatsumaki about to go all out gets a shout-out.

x17

Judgment: High-quality content as usual from One & Murata. I had a lot of fun with this chapter, I even liked it a bit more than the last one. Tatsumaki vs Orochi-kos has been a treat so far, Caped Baldy put in work and King “saved the day”, I’m satisfied and very excited to see how the next chapter plays out. 9/10
