the Japanese portal my jitsu shared an article noting that the manga adaptation of a punch manby the popular artist Yusuke Muratadrew attention with his latest chapter because fans “some signs of wanting to start a romantic comedy“. Apparently, Tatsumaki’s reactions after the fight with Saitama, where she blushes in front of him, weren’t present in the original work.
«Recently, the theory that the manga adaptation of “One Punch Man” directed by Yusuke Murata will enter “fictional development” seems to be gaining traction on social media. In the latest chapter of the Tonari no Young Jump service, published on March 23, there seems to have been evidence of a development similar to that of a multi-heroine romantic comedy, i.e. a harem.».
«To determine if Saitama is the right person to accompany his sister Fubuki, Tatsumaki engages in an intense battle with him that has come to an end with the latest chapter. The fight ended in a sizable victory for Saitama, but what drew attention was Tatsumaki’s mixed reactions.».
«Tatsumaki had chosen to live a lifestyle where he was not dependent on anyone while still greatly admiring Blast, the ultimate hero. However, Saitama’s image is now the one that appears in her memories. And when Saitama realizes that Tatsumaki’s powers are impressive, Tatsumaki’s cheeks turn red and she shows a happy reaction. It also shows a girl’s face when Saitama pets her head. Though known for her dismissive attitude towards others, she now displayed something much more like a tsundere, especially when facing Saitama.».
«Of course, fans reacted to this interesting development with comments like: “The Tatsumaki tsundere, which seems to have developed a certain attraction to Saitama, strikes me as adorable“; “His face was extremely adorable as Saitama stroked his head.“; And “Tatsumaki-chan has fallen in love with Saitama, or at least admits its existence, something she hasn’t done with anyone else.“».
«In any case, the chapter hints at a romantic development, although it is very likely that it will never happen. However, some others objected to this type of expression by Murata.: “It is very strange to see romantic developments towards Saitama”; and “I think that what ONE and Yusuke Murata want to represent in One Punch Man is becoming more and more different”».
«In fact, recent developments of “One Punch Man” have moved away from the original version of this work by the ONE author. While there was also a match between Saitama and Tatsumaki in the original web manga, no hints of a romantic comedy development were ever given. Additionally, in Chapter 223, which was released a while back, there were references to a love triangle with Fubuki similar to “To LOVE-Ru”, something that doesn’t exist in the original work.».
«First of all, “One Punch Man” isn’t too far from resembling a light novel in a narrative sense, since it has an extremely strong protagonist. Following this logic These types of stories are usually accompanied by a harem of beautiful girls that get into the arms of the protagonist one by one, giving fans the impression that this kind of plot twist could be coming. Will Murata really intend to add a touch of romantic comedy to One Punch Man?».
