OPM is a really interesting exploration of the standard overpowered protagonist trope and how being an all-powerful being who has no room to grow and change would really feel.
Also I love King and Saitama's relationship ao much.
I think I'm going to re draw every comic text post I ever did instead of making new ones. I can't find any good ones on my feed anymore and I think reposting old ones with better art will encourage the community to make more. What do y'all think?
Hey there new to the opm fandom and wanted to know why people ship saigenos? honestly I was a bit shocked to find out that it is a popular ship. I was not expecting people to be okay with placing a 19 and 25 year old together romantically. Is there a reason for this that I’m missing? Of course it’s a personal opinion but if I knew someone who was 19 dating a 25 year old I would be concerned for the basis of their relationship.
Welcome to the fandom!
The short answer: they can and they want to. No further reason is required. Fandom is where people play with ideas and characters in a way that may very well have no business in the canon. No justification is necessary.
Likewise, you owe no one an explanation as to why you don't care for it.
The only things fans owe other fans are good tags, so people who aren't into things can filter them out.
On Tumblr, I highly recommend using the filter (go to Settings, Filter) and you can filter by tags and/or by content.
Some ships commonly seen around here and their tags:
Genos x Saitama (and vice-versa): #genosai, #saigenos
Boros x Saitama: #borosai, #saiboros
Garou x Metal Bat: #Batarou
Saitama x King: #Kingsai, #Saiking
Tatsumaki x King: #Tatsuking
Character x oc: Usually tagged as such
If a specific person's content is particularly troublesome to you, block them. It's not an offensive action here; you're responsible for curating your fandom experience.
Israel DOES NOT have the right to self defense, even though it was attacked on October 7, 2023. Watch the video. Israel is guilty of war crimes. Israel must be attacked and all Jews and Christians (partners in crime) removed from Israel. @russia KingsAI Apple @Turkey #h #H #harjgtheonedba #harjgtheone #h #H #harjgtheonedba #harjgtheone #harjgtwo @reuters @newsnation-blog
Greetings and Salutations, Splendiferous Internet Mutual! 🥰 I think you dropped me this ask way back in… oh my gosh, April? XD Anyway, I feel like my brain has finally defragged itself enough to catch up on my Ask Box, so I’m delighted to answer this question.
“DS-Oneshot” is actually a folder with multiple subfolders, so you have essentially unlocked a bonus level—and you get to pick again ^_^
“D-S” stands for “derivative short fiction” which is a very technical way of saying “fanfic.” ...In retrospect, though, you may have thought I meant Do-S XD. I have another folder labeled “OG-Short,” which is where my original short fiction lives. Typically very nascent stories live here—brainstorming, info dumps, outlines, vignettes, etc—once a story has an outline, it usually graduates to its own folder. This is sort of like… a plant nursery, but for plot bunnies, haha.
Some of these plotbunnies are hopping around in the aether already (albeit in bits and pieces), because I tend to use Tumblr as a way to workshop jokes or sometimes scenes, which usually begin as incorrect quotes or headcanons. Last year’s yet unfinished Wanpanmas fic came out of people speculating as to whether or not Garou you could use Genos to power Christmas lights.
Anyway, your options are listed below. If a published snippet exists, then I’ve linked it but you might have more fun guessing at random:
Domestic OTP (I think this one is actually empty—it’s where any scenes of Garou, Genos, and Saitama being dorks together would live)
Afraid to Sneeze
Kingsai Oneshots (has two subfolders: “Saitama trapped in grocery” and “Saitama gets kidnapped”
Fiends (sequel)
Genos :)
Philadelphia
Are We the Baddies
Be the trouble 2 (OPM x BNHA crossover--chapter one is here)
No Bark (OPM x BNHA crossover)
Camp Story (OPM x BNHA crossover)
Anyway, thanks so much for dropping me an ask! These are always fun to do. (I’m still taking asks for this and other things! They’re always fun to do, even if I don’t get to them right away. But going forward, it is my intention to do them within two or three days... I’ve found it actually takes me more time, the longer I wait.)
Saitama: C'mon, King! Fujinoka Market's Once A Year Sale starts at 8am! That’s only 20 minutes from now. The store is 13 miles away. So at 55 miles an hour that just gives us five minutes to spare.
King, half asleep: So wait, when sales are involved you can suddenly do math in your head? If there are 1095 sales in a year, how many sales are there per day?
Saitama: 3 sales per day.
King: What if it was monsters?
Saitama: Well, it’s the…carry the four…and…it doesn’t work.
