Are OPM audiobooks canon or did someone mess up?

Title. Is this some type of expanded universe or bonus content thing?

Saitama's during training key: (Tatsumaki's telekinesis was completely ineffective against him, with she and Fubuki stating that Saitama surpassed her powers, and Fubuki comparing him to an Above Dragon-level threat)

How does Tatsumaki know who pre-balding Saitama is, when he didn't become a hero until after he was bald, in chapter 16?

And in whatever "A festival with Saitama" is, Genos calls Saitama sensei, which doesn't happen until chapter 6.

He meets Tatsumaki for the first time in chapter 30.

Saitama began balding 1.5 years before the start of the manga

So how does Tatsumaki know Saitama during his balding phase?
 
Wait, what are you talking about? She doesn't know who he is. Did you read the audiobook? She thought that Saitama was a ghost and did not know who he was. She and Fubuki just referred to him in that way without knowing his identity.

And Saitama did not look the same back then.
 
Yeah, OP seems to be confused. A festival with Saitama =/= A festival with Tatsumaki. They are different events in different period of time.

Tldr tbh

Duh, that's why I made the thread 🧍‍♂️

But now I'm lost again because doesn't that mean Tatsumaki, Fubuki, and Saitama already met in the audiobook, but they are complete strangers interacting with each other for the first time in the manga?

They did, but they simply weren't aware of who each other really were. The manga is only when they've been properly introduced.

But they had a whole conversation so surely they would remember each other's faces? Well, at least Tatsumaki since she remembers Blast from when she was a child.

Saitama isn't really known for having good memory (He forgets names and faces even in days, let alone the multiple years it's been here) and he also hadn't gone bald yet, so I don't expect Tats/Fubuki to remember either.
