[up] Personally, I think the lack of vetting makes some sense. The Blizzard group's objectives and aims only changed a lot very recently. It wasn't that long ago that Fubuki was just creating the group to dominate the B-Class, and eventually match up to her sister, whilst crushing anyone else with potential who refused. Anything else would go to the wayside.

The rest, I do agree with you, though. Fubuki is hardly a weak psychic on her own, and while she might not be able to crack open the floor to the same degree, making a small hole that Saitama could escape from shouldn't be beyond her.

Maybe it's one of those things that might make better sense in hindsight?

I knew they were gonna make a full page spread of Saitama hugging Tats. I felt it in my soul

“You did get hit by a car dude.”

This chapter had me in stiches. [lol]

As expected, last chapter made people shipping Saitama and Tatsumaki go into overdrive, as well as gaining a lot of new "crewmates" for the ship. All it costed was acquientance-zoning Fubuki[lol].

ONE's humour is quite good like that.

Although I think that it's the first time that someone believes that Saitama has vast amounts of power, rather than underestimating him, or questioning why he was there. Putting aside the whole one punch thing, anyway.

Question is, why didn't Fubuki push him out of the way with her telekinetic powers? You'd think that she wouldn't want his body to smash up the group's car, seeing as they spent a lot of time and money to buy one in the first place.

Orochi also immediately realized Saitama was powerful. He even tried and failed to claim Saitama’s power.

"I'm just an acquaintance!" Two panels of Fubuki looking utterly distraught.

That might just be the most brutal punch Saitama has ever delivered. And it's got some steep competition.

I just realized Saitama's wearing crocs.

Tatsu's about to get her ass beat by a man wearing crocs. [lol]

I also like how she aggressively ships Saitama and Fubuki, but for ego reasons. Like. She's written this whole fanfic in her head about how Saitama is desperately trying to resist the immeasurably powerful Tatsumaki to protect his beloved. But actually Saitama's just infinity powerful and doesn't see this as any different from that altercation with Headphones Guy earlier.

I am surprised that she is concocting that whole thing, instead of just being confused, though. There doesn't seem to be much of a reason for her to do that in the first place, except her not being familiar with someone resisting her psychic powers before. You'd expect she would just ignore him.

The logic chain makes sense to me.

For the sake of her ego, she sees Saitama as making a hopeless, self-sacrificing last stand, throwing his life into oblivion all for Fubuki. And then she's extrapolating from there as to how much he must care for Fubuki, to throw his life away on a fool's endeavor like this.

But actually this is just Tuesday for Saitama. Another jerk, another punch.

New chapter out. Not overly much to comment on, it's pretty much a one-for-one with the webcomic content this time around. There is a lot of amusement for Tatsumaki and Saitama inadvertently solving some issues in the midst of their scuffle. And as per usual poor Metal Bat just can't catch a break.

This chapter had me in stitches, Tatsumaki and Saitama childish scuffle literally running over serious, dramatic situations was hilarious.

Good chapter.

On the contrary, that's exactly what he got. The problem was that he was all worked up to fight the monster, before it was instantly pulverised by someone/someone.

This is the type of humor that made love the series. 10/10

Also props to Murata, he can even make random woman we'll probably never see again gorgeous.
