Hands

I'm no artist, but I do appreciate good art when I see it. A little love then for Murata's portrayal of hands. I first wrote this sometime in 2016, one of my first posts on the OPM subreddit. I think it it’s still good!

I may tend to dig into different aspects of OPM, but it's only to consider the aspects that the writing or art actually cares about. For example, I'm yet to consider the geopolitics of OPM -- it's not important to ONE and I leave it there.

I like looking at hands in general, but my gateway drug were Genos's. Something was naggingly familiar about them, and then I realised: they're Jack Kirby hands, big, beautiful Kirby hands! Anyone who considers affordances in a mechanical rendering is my friend -- they look like they might almost work. For example he doesn't have the equivalent of metacarpals (the bones in the palm of your hand) as the palm needs to be a solid piece for the incineration cannon exhausts. It means that the width of his hand is fixed and he can’t reshape his hand for many of the precision grips we take for granted. So Murata has taken it into account, for example, when you realise that he has a telescoping thumb in some arm sets to compensate. We wouldn't have minded if Murata didn't consider such detail so consistently, but when someone works that hard to to get the trifles right, I have to care too. And then I started to look at other characters' hands too.

drawn like some thought has gone into how to engineer a functional hand rather than metal textures drawn over a regular hand -- I just fell in love with Murata’s art over this.

By and large Murata has given regular characters their own hands, rather than generic ones (which again we wouldn't have noticed or cared about). My other favourites then:

Saitama's hands have surprisingly long fingers. One almost doubts that they belong on a fighter... and then they curl into that fist. All part of the character everyone loves to underestimate.

doesn’t it look like he should be a pianist?

Garou has some of the longest fingers I've seen on a non-deformed character -- when he flips you off, you stay flipped off. But they don't create a sense of delicacy: while they're long and thin, they look as hard as bone. They fit so well with his fighting style -- when he spears them into his opponent, their devastating impact is utterly believable.

At the opposite end to delicate are Tank Top Master's. Again, without being deformed, his are these giant meat hooks that form into wrecking ball fists. The brutality of those hands contrasts so clearly with the kind face he has.

Sometimes it's not the look of the hands that's notable, but what the characters do with them instead. In that respect, Metal Bat is particularly noteworthy. He has hungry hands: they seemingly cannot hang at his side but must be touching something, holding a bat, stuck in his pockets, his sister's hand, his own hands, something. It adds a sense of restless energy to his character that you notice, but don't realise that you do.

this is as still as you’ll ever find Metal Bat

A very different kind of restlessness comes across in Dr. Genus's hands: he has bitten his fingernails to the quick, which go so well with the haunted look he wears.

Hands I was curious about then:

Dr. Kuseno. I hadn't noticed until I was compiling this list, but I've not seen them at all. They're only ever tightly locked behind his back. Everything he does is effected through robots. Now I'm curious. Well the years pass and chapter 89 rolls round and we get to see the doctor’s hands: they’re tiny, in keeping with the rest of his dimunitive self. And they’re not afraid to touch Genos. But next day comes round and they’re right back behind his back.

needless to say, this is one of my favourite panels: the care that’s gone into every character’s hands is excellent. I especially like the detail of Bang being left-handed, and notice that Genos’s fingers swivel from the knuckle to allow him to grip the chopsticks precisely. 

Looking at hands, can I draw attention to King’s for a moment?  I thought they looked a bit familiar. And then I realised that Murata has referenced his own hands to give to King. It just gives me the biggest smile.

Even in something so small, Murata has taken care to make sure it speaks to who characters are.

Genos is not Saitama’s Friend:

Genos is many things to Saitama: his disciple, his coworker, his roomate, his biggest fan, etc. No one... no one... spends more time with Saitama than Genos. There is no one Saitama knows better than Genos. But Genos is not and has never been Saitama's friend, for one simple reason:

Genos fundamentally does not understand Saitama.

Genos knows Saitama is stronger than anyone else he's ever met (true), believes that Saitama is by definition the strongest being in existence (no longer true), and praises him as the highest moral standard and wisest master in history (not true). In essence, he worships Saitama. In other words, he projects his own ideals onto Saitama, rather than actually trying to understand him with an open mind. Had it been Blast who saved Genos from Mosquito Girl, Genos would have viewed him in exactly the same way.

Saitama's core struggle is his search for a "real fight" to satisfy his lack of purpose and boredom. Despite the fact he has had many, many "real fights" over his years of training, but did those satisfy him? Of course not, Saitama never wanted "one real fight" but an infinite supply of "real fights" to satiate his thirst for physical struggle and challange. Making his goal impossible from the moment he started. Becoming the strongest hero was the easy part.... because it was actually possible.

Genos does not, cannot, and will not understand this. Because he can't look past his own narrow mindset and see Saitama for who he is, and what his goals in life are. Saitama has literally told Genos multiple times about his boredom, yet Genos' idealized fantasy view of Saitama never acknowledges that core character trait. Even Dr. Genus and Boros understand it on some level, despite their admiration. And last but not least King, Saitama's only true friend, the one person alive who actually understands his struggle and does not worship him.

Thoughts?

Being a Mad Scientist sure is lonely.

I think it's thematically appropriate that Mosquito Girl survived, and that Genus repaired her. Mad Scientists in OPM are lonely, dependent people.

Kuseno has Genos.

Fukegao had his brother, Marugori/Beefcake.

Genus surrounded himself in clones, now he surrounds himself in his remodeled, reformed experiments.

Psykos started out with Fubuki and her stuffed cycloptic bear, then she leveled up to Orochi, a horde of monsters, and her little flying eye critters that she used to spy on people.

And WIIIIIILD Emperor (that name is such a sad but hilarious overcorrection) has his Underdog Men, and now that he's of the opinion that he can't trust anybody now (even his homie Zombieman), he's more isolated and insecure than ever.

I hope Isamu manages to let some positive influences in his life, or he'll end up like Metal Knight, the loneliest and most paranoid guy of all.

After losing Isamu as his assistant, all Bofoi has is his robot army, his action movie figurines, and a dark laboratory from which he broods and watches the outside world.

Gotta love how Zombieman has a repertoire of tactics to deal with all the troubled, superpowered people around him... he behaves so wildly different in every case and still he always seems so HIM.

With Isamu: be fatherly 

With Amai: Annoy the fuck out of him. Gently. 

With Genos, Fash and Tatsumaki: BE PATIENT. Don’t interfere unless they’re about to physically fight each other (again)

With Dr Genus: AXE

With Genus, alternatively: ‘you created me now you deal with the repercussions of me being ME’

#one punch man #opm #zombieman #dr genus #amai mask #how he can be SO DAMN CHILDISHA ND DEMANDING with dr Genus lmao it's what he deserves though #how he's just blunt with Saitama hahahahaha #how he become the Cool Hardboiled Hero when the younger heroes need a captain to reasure them #How he scolds just seirously enough but gently enough when the S Class is getting rowdy #How he becomes intimidating as hell with some enemies but diplomatic with others

'I Don't Want To Cure Cancer' OPM Edition

With apologies to Spiderman.

Let's go round and interview a few scientists in OPM, shall we?

Us: Dr. Bofoi, we can't help but notice the extraordinary speed with which you cleared City A and erected a new headquarters, all at a small fraction of the cost that would have been expected. Beyond that, we notice that your capacity to build at scale is unparalleled. With so many people losing their homes to monster attacks and other disasters, why don't you take the next step and cure homelessness?

Dr. Bofoi: I don't want to cure homelessness. I want to bill the Hero Association for every Yen I can get. I assure you, it's going to a far more important cause. Actually, more importantly, how did you get in here?

____

Us: Dr. Kuseno, your endeavours in supporting the hero Demon Cyborg are truly extraordinary. Once people thought the dream of near-infinite clean energy from nuclear power to be a pipe dream, yet you appear to have solved this problem in an incredibly compact and robust way. Why don't you use your technology to cure energy shortage and usher in a new industrial revolution?

Dr Kuseno: Lol, I fear you may have mistaken me for someone with lofty ideals. I don't aspire to anything as grand as a new industrial revolution. I don't mind doing the odd good deed, but my aims are far more simple: I want to develop a killer cyborg through whom I can pour out the fullness of my burning rage against my enemies.

___

Us: Dr. Genus, you have not only understood the rules of life far better than any person but have rewritten them entirely. With your army of you, there are few fields that you do not have a purview of. Perhaps the most amazing thing you could do would be to harness your ability to clone flesh indefinitely to cure world hunger and stop the depredation of the natural world to feed humanity. How about it?

Dr. Genus: Starving is about all the unimproved mass of humanity deserves. I have no interest in curing world hunger. I just want somebody intelligent enough to talk to. Pause Which you most certainly aren't.

Chimpanzees and bonobos are often thought to reflect two different sides of human nature—the conflict-ready chimpanzee versus the peaceful bonobo—but a new study published in Current Biology shows that, within their own communities, male bonobos are more frequently aggressive than male chimpanzees. For both species, more aggressive males had more mating opportunities. "Chimpanzees and bonobos use aggression in different ways for specific reasons," says anthropologist and lead author Maud Mouginot of Boston University. "The idea is not to invalidate the image of bonobos being peaceful—the idea is that there is a lot more complexity in both species." Though previous studies have investigated aggression in bonobos and chimpanzees, this is the first study to directly compare the species' behavior using the same field methods. The researchers focused on male aggression, which is often tied to reproduction, but they note that female bonobos and chimpanzees are not passive, and their aggression warrants its own future research. To compare bonobo and chimpanzee aggression, the team scrutinized rates of male aggression in three bonobo communities at the Kokolopori Bonobo Reserve (Democratic Republic of Congo) and two chimpanzee communities at Gombe National Park (Tanzania).
