Saitama vs the robots of Metal Knight and as usual Saitama wins with just slapping the robots "One Slap Man"

A calm chapter which is great after all this multiverse fights. Saitama took sperm with him which triggered the system alert. The different kind of robots made by Metal Knight tried to fight off the danger, but the danger is the one and only Saitama. So yeah, there goes 9 billion/each.. Not sure how they didn't spot them, but it is what it is.
King saved his ass though, not sure if they'd buy his lie xD
And he got promoted I guess.

Ayyy Saitama got promoted to A-Class Rank 39. Good for him.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords.

Incredible chapter, loved it. One month is definitely too long between chapters.

The highlights for me were:
- Black Sperm being funny (lol)
- Rover being a good boy!! And confirmation that Saitama is actually taking Rover in :D
- Saitama being promoted to A-Rank!

I also posted a full review/reaction on my profile.

Keep up the good work, Murata/ONE!

Loved it. The classic blend of humour, OP Saitama making people blink twice. Got some social critique and a Saitama rank up to boot

lmao, Metal Knight goons are meaningless in the face of Saitama.

now that Saitama is an A class hero, would he eventually fight Amai Mask at some point in the future? any spoiler is fine, someone please tell me.

Will Smitaima. 🤓

I wonder if the fact that Saitama is now officially classified as an A-rank could be an indication that we are close to the end of this epic story. 👀

The face he made when he realized the price of the defense robots. 😆

good chapter. Saitama's rank shooting up was probably just his presence during the recent incident and surviving in the Association's eyes but still glad he went up in status. Metal Knight had to have seen Saitama thrashing his robots right? I expect a surveillance by MK put in place to learn about Saitama if that's the case.

page 1 : halloween costumes :

* tatsumaki as a witch , AGAIN ???

* flashy flash in a flashy , shiny armor .

* tank top master as popeye the sailor ?

* zombieman as Jason Voorhees ?

* genos as Edward Scissorhands ?

* silver fang as grandpa smurf ? lol .

* sweet mask as a devil ?

* rabid metal bat-sh!t as an oni demon .

* speed of sound sonic as a pu$$y ... cat , lol .

* after the previous arc , darkshine 's injuries are still not healed , and he is in bandages .

page 4 :
- sperm : this little guy 's name is "pochi" / "poochie" . and my name is "saru" / "monkey" .

page 6 :
- board : the hero association is 2km in this direction .
- thank you , board , you are the captain obvious . i can clearly see that giant building in this direction with my eyes . who wasted money to make this useless board ?

- announcer : ... mina-sama = everyone-sama ... ( then in the following pages , this guy keeps switching between "mina-sama" and "mina-san" . )

page 18 :
"defense system level 1" , and this robot has the number "1" on its chest , and its weapons are 2 long rods that looks like 2 number "1" , very subtle , lol .

page 24 : note that saitama was blocking the explosion and protecting the 2 black pets .

page 25 : "defense system level 4" , and we have 4 robots , each robot has the number "4" on its head , each robot has 4 tentacles , each tentacle has 4 fingers , very subtle , lol .
and obviously , Murata Yusuke was stealing the design of dr octopus from the film spider man 2 .

saitama is a "machine-murderer" , he "killed" at least 5 innocent robots , lol .
according to this video , Overwatch Animated Short | “Alive” , destroying a machine = "murdering" , lol :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U130wnpi-C0

- widowmaker : i just "killed" a machine . i feel so good , i feel so alive .

page 33 :
- ... KING-SAN ...
