Recap of redrawn One Punch Man chapter 195
Redrawn One Punch Man chapter 195 essentially began how the original chapter began. The Heavenly Ninja Party Tennin confronted Speed-o'-Sound Sonic and told him about the return of The Great One. With that, they wished to have Sonic join them in their plan to take down Flashy Flash and Blast, and take over the world with their ninjutsu. For this, they needed Sonic to lure Flashy Flash.
In addition, the manga saw Saitama, Flashy Flash, and Manako meet Blast and Sitch at the Hero Association. Blast had seemingly informed Sitch that Saitama had defeated Garou. However, Saitama himself had no recollection of the same. The manga then revealed a flashback featuring Blast and Sitch discussing Saitama's strength and the prophesized crisis.
What to expect from redrawn One Punch Man chapter 196?
Redrawn One Punch Man chapter 196 will most likely feature Flashy Flash and Blast discussing the events surrounding God. Given how Blast had been searching for cubes for a really long time, Flashy Flash was certain that Blast knew something about God. Moreover, similar events had taken place in the chapter's previous version.
Hence, fans can expect Blast to make a similar revelation about his past in the upcoming One Punch Man chapter.
