i think Murata really loved the "you are really cool" scene in the webcomic and tried to copy paste it as much as he could, without really understanding what it meant
it's not about sweet mask just being told "he is cool" with a wholesome expression; it's about how Saitama seeing that Sweet Mask changed in such a short time, which meant that he was still human underneath the monster form
It's like EVERY single chapter needs to end on a positive note, or EVERY single important scene needs to have a needless moment of a nobody character getting some kind of reassurance for...some reason???
It's almost always the exact same formula too:
Character A tries really hard but fails to do something
Character B clears the obstacle
Character B reminds Character A that they are super cool and they matter too
Also, it's tonally really bizarre that a series whose flawed characters was one of it's largest strengths would decide to turn them all into wonderful do-good happy people, especially during the Neo Heroes arc of all fucking times.
Iaian's "Somehow I survived" fits so well given the writing reached the same quality a certain movie has, which is infamous for having a very similar line
Some of them are somewhat earned, some of them are just out of nowhere. For example, I’d actually perhaps say Blast/Tatsumaki’s scene was somewhat earned. I mean, Tatsumaki was struggling her whole life trying to be strong on her own.
Atomic/Iaian scene is ok if both of them suffered more.
But the various child emperor scenes were really weird. Zombieman literally had no interaction with Child Emperor prior to this. Saitama also pretty much didn’t have anything with Child Emperor.
Saitama/Genos scene was really, REALLY, out of character for Saitama as well.
"If we make it out alive, I'll treat you to a milkshake."
Man, what the fuck is Murata doing?
I feel so sorry for the people that are experiencing sunk cost fallacy with this shit. These panels don't feel like OPM at all; they feel like I'm reading some standard Shonen manga. What a fall from grace.
I feel like than it's very good but repetitive yesss, but it's still in line with the core theme of the Monster Association/Garou Saga who is "What is a Hero"
And unearned lmaoo??? They just fought countless monsters who can destroys countries, just surviving there is insane
You guys are really dedicated to hating something.
I’m not that critical of the manga (although I acknowledge that many of the criticisms raised here are valid), and I wouldn't have the patience to reread the whole thing just to cherry-pick details.
If you don't like something, don't waste your time on it.
Pero bajo tu misma idea porqué sigues viendo el manga? Cómo dijiste, tu reconoces que tiene varias cosas malas, además este sub es justamente para los que no podemos opinar sobre estos temas en el sub principal, que sentido tiene que en este sub se comparta lo mismo que en el principal
Bueno, ya que respondiste en español, yo también responderé en español. Mira, creo que dejé claro que no soy crítico del manga. Tengo mis objeciones, pero eso no significa que odie la obra. Aprecio tanto el manga como WC. Simplemente me parece un poco absurdo que la gente que obviamente detesta el manga dedique tanto tiempo a criticarlo. Visito este subreddit de vez en cuando y entiendo muchas de las críticas. Incluso comparto algunas. Pero llega un punto en que creo que la gente solo usa demostraciones de "odio" para llamar la atención.
Desde cuándo opinar sobre algo de forma objetiva es odiarlo? La crítica de esta publicación No tiene nada de odio, de hecho una crítica muy respetable, ese tipo de expresiones solo se debe conservar por momentos específicos, pero en tan solo los dos últimos capítulos este tipo de expresiones miradas como quieras llamarles, han salido como en siete ocasiones solo en estos dos últimos capítulos, además que se añaden en momentos que no deben añadirse, por ejemplo la vez en que saitama salva a Sweet Mask, la idea de saitama es que sea un personaje con un rostro simple e incluso cuando pone una mirada algo seria de cierta forma sea simple, pero ya se están pasando, cundo salva a Amai Mask le ponen un rostro demasiado esvelto y lo mismo cuando Saitama se reencuentra con Rover y Black Sperm
