The translation of the above Tweet goes as follows:
“Sorry for keeping you waiting. The next update for the Tona Jump version of One Punch Man is scheduled for next week on the 20th (Thursday). Sorry for the inconvenience, but please wait a little longer.”
The last chapter One Punch Man dropped was chapter 200 (titled Void) on Mar 30. Despite the delay, fans are eagerly waiting for One Punch Man chapter 201 to drop, as this might be the last chapter of the re-draws before Murata covers new material from chapter 202!
Recently, in March, Yusuke Murata decided to redraw the Ninja Village arc, stating that he wasn’t satisfied with his initial direction.
