Disentangling One-Punch Man (please reblog/make additions)
If you follow One-Punch Man religiously and keep up with all the twists and turns of its making, this post will feel like old hat. Please pass on the message anyway.
If One-Punch Man (hereafter OPM) is something you watch when there's a season out or read when there's a volume out, what I'm saying may seem rather odd. Pass on the message anyway.
This is for you, the person who likes OPM well enough but isn't a fanatic, especially if you only check it out every few weeks. You may find yourself at sea frequently. Don't worry, you won't be long.
In brief:
One-Punch Man is a webcomic that is serialised on Young Jump. If you can read Japanese, it is 100% free, legally. It is periodically collected and sold in volumes, which also form the basis of the anime.
It is also a passion project for ONE and Yusuke Murata. Every author and writer has things they would like to change, and if they have second thoughts about the way the story flows, they change the online version. Which can be hard to keep up with: many fan archives have a lot of trouble. To make it worse, the ShonenJump app does not change the chapters when they're updated, meaning that successive chapters can feel VERY discordant.
So, where can you go?

Also hey, I'm not dead :D (read the notes for info)
Have a hot sneak peak:
I HAVE FAILED THE OPM FANDOM!!- Nah, just kidding. XD
Ofcourse i still drew for them! I am (and will forever) in the opm fandom, i love this series and fandom sm <3. And i totally understand your worries, i've just been joining more fandoms without leaving the previous ones, so i have to keep up with 3 or 4 different themes shjshsh
Ironically, they are the ones i have more ideas to draw (a whole ass excel document my guy) and now that i'm also busy with personal life and comissions, i couldn't bring much food to the table T-T
Tho don't you worry about that, they'll always have a special place in my heart and pages <3
