Thoughts on One Punch Man Chapter 176
After years of faithfully translating ONE’s webcomic into manga, Yusuke Murata appears to have decided to shake things up a bit. Fubuki had sensed the presence of a powerful esper in the previous chapter, prompting her to invite Saitama to join her. In the original comics, she invited Saitama to join her during her interrogation of Psykos because she was afraid Tatsumaki might interfere.
The next arc will centre on the Psychic sisters Fubuki and Tatsumaki, with some involvement from the group Tsukuyomi, because of the way the plot introduced a new character. However, the flashback battle between Fubuki and Psykos that occurred during Saitama’s fight with Garou may be followed up on in One Punch Man chapter 176.
So, what happened the last time? (Recap)
In the One Punch Man chapter 175 titled “Visitor,” Fubuki dragged Saitama along with her and the Blizzard Group to see Psykos. However, the latter was being visited at the time by another esper, probably a villain, who was doing experiments on her in his lab. Throughout the chapter, we also got glimpses of Fubuki and Psykos’s backgrounds. Apparently, they were high school friends when the former identified the latter as her nemesis. So, when Psykos was little, Fubuki sealed up her abilities to stop her. Fubuki and Psykos’s fight in One Punch Man chapter 176 is a direct result of their history together and the Garou event.
After the events of Chapter 175, fans of One Punch Man can’t wait for the publication of Chapter 176. Even though mangaka Yusuke Murata has been releasing his chapters every two weeks, a definitive schedule has yet to be set. Therefore, all we can do is speculate on when the next chapter will be published. Saitama was pulled along to see Psykos by Fubuki and the Blizzard Group in the previous chapter. She had planned to interrogate the Monster, but she sensed the proximity of another powerful esper and chickened out. Sadly for Fubuki, this unknown person arrived in Psykos before they could finally meet.
The Time and Date of Its Publication
It is anticipated that Yusuke Murata, the manga’s author, would issue One Punch Man Chapter 176 on December 15, 2022, at 12 am JST, in keeping with the series’ usual biweekly publishing schedule.

Chapter 176 of Yusuke Murata’s One Punch Man manga is scheduled to be released on December 15, 2022, at 12 a.m. JST, continuing the author’s regular biweekly schedule. Previously in the comic, Fubuki picked up Saitama and they joined the Blizzard Group in meeting Psykos. Unfortunately, another esper was already in Psykos at the time of their arrival. The unknown esper planned to take Psykos with him so he could study her.
Perhaps Fubuki and Psykos will square off in One Punch Man chapter 176.
On Wednesday, December 7, 2022, One Punch Man mangaka Yusuke Murata announced that Thursday, December 15, 2022, would be the publishing date for chapter 176. The Mangaka has stated that the forthcoming release would be the last one of 2022, and therefore the manga chapter will be published on Tonari no Young Jump. Chapter 177 will not be available to readers until 2023, most likely on Thursday, January 5, 2023.
Overview of Chapter 176: What to Anticipate?
Chapter 176 of One Punch Man will most likely focus on the battle between Fubuki and Psykos that occurred during Saitama’s confrontation with Garou. In the prior chapter, we learned that Fubuki and Psykos went to high school together. For the simple reason that she might have caused fewer heroes to exist, Fubuki loathed Psykos and everything she stood for. Fubuki aspired to outdo her sister Tatsumaki and become the greatest hero in the world, but if Psykos’ schemes had succeeded, there might not have been anybody for Fubuki to look up to. For this reason, she made the call to imprison Psykos’ abilities.
This is the spark that ignited the conflict between Fubuki and Psykos, which will be presented in the next episode. Alternatively, the upcoming release might centre on the mysterious esper who first appeared in chapter 175; however, as webcomic fans are aware, this figure was never actually present in the plot and was instead created by mangaka Yusuke Murata.
A meeting between Fubuki and Psykos was cut short in the original comics by ONE when Tatsumaki, eager to eliminate Psykos, barged in on their conversation. However, Yusuke Murata appears to be going in a different direction with the Psychic Sisters storyline in the manga.
When Will One Punch Man 176 Be Posted?
One Punch Man Chapter 176 is scheduled to be released between December 14 and 15, 2022, per the manga’s typical publishing schedule. You should be on the lookout specifically for your favourite networks to make sure you don’t miss a single episode.
Spoilers for One Punch Man Chapter 176
Yusuke Murata appears to have decided to change the narrative after faithfully adapting ONE’s webcomic into the hard copy manga. Since Fubuki had detected the arrival of a powerful esper in the previous chapter, she had urged Saitama to come along. She begged Saitama to come along in the online comic’s previous incarnation because she was scared Tatsumaki would interrupt Psykos’s interrogation. The next story arc will likely focus on the psychic sisters Fubuki and Tatsumaki, with possible involvement from the Tsukuyomi. Chapter 176 of One Punch Man may feature the recollection fight between Fubuki and Psykos from when Saitama was in combat with Garou.
