OPM chapter 148 review

KingKira’s View: One & Murata have been serving us back-to-back delicious chapters and this week was no different. We picked up from the end of the last chapter with Bang encountering Garou after Bomb was taken down. No time is wasted as Bang does his awakening breathing technique and decides to go all out, the master & student exchange blows, as this is happening Garou is shown performing the awakening breathing technique as well. Bomb & Bang confirm that Garou is still growing stronger during his fights. Bang gets the upper hand when he lands a few hits, knocking Garou into the air but Garou skillfully retaliates by smashing Bang into the ground, After witnessing Garou fight, Bang acknowledges that he’s much stronger now.

We switched over to Vomited Fuhrer ugly terrorizing the heroes and he performed a full-body melting punch directed at the swordsmen but Amahare & Nichirin push the other parties away leaving themselves to take the full damage of Fuhrer’s attack, Amahare died instantly while half of Nichirin’s body remained, Nichirin entrusts the swordmasters council to Atomic samurai along with the sun blade & he has a sad farewell with his student, Spring mustachio. I think it’s cool that the moon blade gives Atomic samurai a more concrete goal in the series and we could possibly even get an arc centered on Atomic samurai. With Vomited Fuhrer’s body melting the more he performs attacks, he reabsorbs the toxic substance he released to replenish his mass; the problem for Fuhrer starts when he absorbs some of black sperm’s clones with a cocky attitude, going as far as calling sperm livestock. An enraged Black sperm observes the battlefield before deciding to merge his clones into Golden sperm, it’s a simple design but I like how he turned out, especially his facial expression. For now, I can’t tell if sperm merged every single clone he has into one or if he merged a lot and still has some of the black clones dealing with Genos & Tatsumaki, we’ll find out next chapter. The chapter concludes with Golden sperm bullying Vomited Fuhrer ugly and putting him down easily, not even Fuhrer’s toxic substance can harm Golden sperm. I’m excited to see Homeless emperor’s reaction to Golden sperm and I wonder who he’ll fight since most heroes available are in pretty bad shape, there’s also Garou vs Bang to look forward to, Garou has the advantage now but Bang is still roaring to go.     

KingKira’s character of the week: Black sperm snatches it directly from Vomited Fuhrer ugly this week thanks to his epic merger. In less than 3 pages Golden sperm took down the same Vomited fuhrer ugly that has been a menace on the battlefield without taking any damage.   

KingKira’s best scene: Tough choice this time around but I’ll go with Golden sperms bright entrance. I love how Murata showed golden sperm speed blitzing Vomited fuhrer ugly before revealing his shiny form; his demeanor & manner of speech was also cool to see. A major shoutout to the Garou vs Bang fight, awesome sequences as usual.  

KingKira’s best panel: Sperm season.

Please refrain

Obituary: We are here to honor the fallen warriors of the swordmasters council, Amahare & Nichirin, they join their brother Zanbai who died in the last chapter. Amahare & Nichirin made their first appearance in chapter 69 and passed away as a result of a full-body melting punch from Vomited Fuhrer ugly. Apart from his design Amahare didn’t leave much of an impression on me and his fighting style didn’t get much spotlight, Nichirin, on the other hand, had a cool design and his Iai Rahu asura slash looked impressive, it’s safe to say he was on the same level as Atomic samurai. My thoughts and prayers to Nichirin & Amahare fans out there. Shoutout to Fuhrer for the killings

Judgment: One & Murata did it again, producing another fantastic chapter for us to enjoy. We got more action with Garou vs Bang, more deaths on the hero side as well as a new goal for Atomic samurai, and the golden entrance; the stakes keep getting higher and I’m loving it, the only problem is that I need more. 10/10

OPM chapter 147 review

KingKira’s View: Action action action and I’m loving it. As always I’m grateful to One & Murata for the consistent chapter releases. The chapter picked up from the last with Garou making the first attack on Bomb, Bomb holds his own as he’s able to keep up with Garou, and the fight is so fast that Fubuki can’t even see what’s going on. Bomb hits Garou in order to move the fight away from Fubuki; Pig god finds Fubuki and it seems like Fubuki and Pig god will heal tank top master some more, I personally would prefer it if Ttm stays out of commission but we’ll see how that develops. We switch over to Black sperm taking on the heroes, a massive black sperm grabs Tatsumaki from underground but Genos once again saves Tatsumaki as he did against Psyrochi, Black sperm knocks Genos down and to my surprise Genos gets back up immediately due to his contemporary art proof functionality, this is a cool callback to when he got wrecked by Carnage Kabuto, I believe he must have gotten this upgrade after the house of evolution arc as he states that the functionality made use of the data from Tatsumaki’s attack during the aftermath of Boros’ invasion. I still like how Tatsumaki now has respect for Genos, I’m sure the professional shippers had fun with this scene.

I had been wondering where he was but Fuhrer ugly finally showed up looking disgusting and smelling even worse, angry & hungry for revenge on Bang. Darkshine attacks with the superalloy double bazooka Fuhrer responds with a forearm melting punch, the result is painful for Darkshine as his impenetrable skin takes damage, FU fires another acid ball on Darkshine’s chest leaving him to roll on the ground in agony, Zanbai jumps in to attack but his sword is melted and he is given a gruesome death, Atomic samurai and Nichirin perform the atomic slash & Iai Rahu-asura slashes but they do nothing in the face of Vomited Fuhrer ugly’s toxic body. With Fuhrer’s statement, it’s now confirmed that Gums is dead but the good thing is that the threat of Vomited Fuhrer ugly is now much greater than the initial Gums/Fuhrer tag team and once again Fuhrer raises the stakes and creates a seemingly hopeless situation for the heroes, Fuhrer ugly now officially leads the Cadres survival of the fittest game. Bomb & Garou continue their fight and for the most part, it looks even but Garou gains the upper hand by canceling out Bomb’s whirlwind iron cutting fist and knocking him down, the chapter ends with Bang and Garou facing off. Great chapter, the battles keep getting more intense each chapter and I’m here for it, I’m curious to see who deals with Vomited Fuhrer ugly and I’m excited for the main event Bang vs Garou.

KingKira’s character of the week: Fuhrer ugly once again shows how much of a fearsome monster he is by wreaking havoc on the battlefield in such little time. He melted some Black sperm clones, took on the double bazooka, and came out on top, killed Zanbai easily, and left Atomic samurai & Nichirin with melted blades after taking their trademark attacks, very impressive feats.   

KingKira’s best scene: I’ll go with the Garou vs Bomb fight, I like how Murata handled the choreography, it was smooth and easy to follow. I especially like this panel showing them going at it.

KingKira’s best panel: Master & Student.

Obituary: It is with great joy & sadness that I announce the death of swordsmen council member, Zanbai. He made his debut in chapter 69 and passed away as a result of his face getting melted by Vomited Fuhrer ugly’s acid. Can’t really say much about him other than his decent design as he didn’t get much screen time. He is survived by his brothers of the swordsman council (Amahare might be next!). I offer my thoughts and prayers to any Zanbai fans out there.

Rest in peace

Judgment: This was an exciting & action-packed chapter, I got what I wanted and some more. Some dope fights sequences to enjoy, Bomb put in work, Vomited Fuhrer ugly raising the stakes and death on the heroes’ side. With the quality we’re getting it’s becoming hard not to give these chapters a 10 but I enjoyed this one almost as much as the last chapter. 10/10
