OPM: Anime Map Canon

[MrTayman616]

This thread is an attempt to make OPM's world map from the anime usable. The map of OPM is constantly used in the anime(always the same map) and it fits the world of OPM in the manga.

Not just that but the locations of the cities are also consistent with the things they include. City-Z is near the ocean and the location fits the map, Which we have seen it many times in the manga, especially while Tatsumaki vs Psykorochi.

City-A is at the center and the roads to visit all cities(they go to all directions) shows it's somewhere in the center which the map shows it as all. Not just that but while Tatsumaki was fighting Saitama, they have traveled between cities. The cities they traveled and their locations are consistent with the map. From City-A to City-N and from City-N to City-H.

Beefcake goes from City-D to City-B whic is consistent with the map. We also see City-D is also open to ocean which is consistent(or clouds?).

This page shows City-F and City-G is together which is consistant with the location of City-F(ocean side) in the map + consistant with the location of City-G in the map.

City-J has a seaside which the map also supports. Genos also stated that it was kinda far away which is reasonable here. (OVA episode states that the prison Puri Puri Prisoner stays is in a small island off the City-J which the map shows it as well.)

Garou escaped from WDM via leaving the City-Q, which he met King later who was in City-M. which the map supports their location.

Death Gatling found Garou in City-M which before this moment, he was in City-I fighting against a huge octopus which the location is still consistent here.

Also Anime OVA's are considered canon. Which ONE himself involves deeply in the entire storyline etc.

There are OVA episodes where he uses the map of OPM as well.

My proposal is that the map should be usable.

That scan seems down?

That scan seems down?

Thx, didn't notice :d (It works for me though)

fixed rn. (just put another earth photo :d)

 

[MrTayman616]

Bump

 

[Raiden38]

I wonder if it were accepted how certain calculations like the meteorite one would change. In that case, try to redo certain calculations if you can because I'm curious.
in any case I would wait for the next sagas that looking at the webcomic we could probably have something more

Can't :d

 

[Qawsedf234]

The areas of the map are fine, but the proposal here is that City Z itself is the size of a country and that every city is the size of a country which is contradicted by every visual, statement and narrative implication given.

If the proposal is solely that the anime portrays the regions are correct, sure. If the proposal is that City Z is the size of Turkey then no, none of that is accurate.

So tentatively disagree.

where is it contradicted?
and what narrative implications tell you that opm cities are not the size of a country

 

[EnderLord8]

Maybe not the city itself, but its territory would be the size of a country, although in my head this would only increase the meteor's talent, anyway, one way or another the meteor should scale to destroy the entire region of city Z as it is stated that the destruction would reach other cities.

 

[EnderLord8]

Although I have to note that in one of the map images in some cities there are what I assume to be the location of heroes that are on opposite ends of the territory itself, so maybe one possibly?

 

[Qawsedf234]

Beefcake literally falls on a City and destroys it by accident. The damages taking months to repair. Boros' ship also destroys 99.98% of City A and we see that there's a massive gap between City A and surrounding Cities.

The regions named after the City itself are country sized, but the cities themselves are just very big cities. Genos even mentions towns surrounding City Z which isn't possible if City Z occupied a country sized area.

yes but we didn't see Marugori's fall at all since we saw him fall yes but not the damage caused by his fall but we see that he caused a shock wave due to the fall but what he destroyed and the rest is not seen and it is also possible that a being 270 meters big if it falls fast can cause enormous damage to destroy a city then Enderlord said well it does not necessarily mean that Marugori's fall destroyed all the territory designated as city B but only the capital city so it can work that the territory is as big as that of a country but the capital city is a big city and that's it except in certain cities like city Z where you see mountains and entire mountain ranges over and over again for the damage that took months to repair I don't understand what's wrong since Metal knight builds an entire fortress and highways that connect it to other cities in 7 days

 

[Raiden38]

for city A you can see that there were traces of destruction everywhere with craters etc. scattered a bit everywhere etc. which then only destroyed the surface of the territory of city A. They didn't make a huge hole in the entire city but with the bombing the impact power of the projectiles simply created an explosive power such as to raze to the ground even what wasn't in the sights

then when did it happen that Genos named these cities surrounding city Z?
I think he was talking about the cities surrounding city Z like cities X,Y,B and D

 

[MrTayman616]

The first chapters has lots of inconsistency in drawing, sizes etc.

At the very least, the panel we have seen, it states that he destroyed a single town rather than a city, The city gets destroyed off screen. (Anime fixes it lmao). (Except City B)

Which is why they act differently when Boros's ship destroys City-A while Beefcake is only rated as demon level. Being a demon level = Destroying a town while Dragon level is destroying multiple town (which is why destroying Class-A counts as Dragon)

I don't remember there being a gap between City A and surrounding Cities?

The regions named after the City itself are country sized, but the cities themselves are just very big cities. Genos even mentions towns surrounding City Z which isn't possible if City Z occupied a country sized area.

I'm not proposing the entirety of towns(visible city) being equal to a "City". In the map, the "Cities" contain everything, the towns, forests, mountains etc. City Z is surrounded with the towns of other Cities like City Y, City B.

"The regions named after the City itself are country sized" is what i'm proposing, it's not accepted like that as far as i know.

 

[Qawsedf234]

Its been accepted for years. The rejected proposal has always been country sized cities because it has massive counter evidence. The regions being country sized has never been challenged on the wiki.

So "City" A itself is country sized, while towns etc alone isnt?

 

[Qawsedf234]

So "City" A itself is country sized, while towns etc alone isnt?

The region of City-A is country sized with surrounding towns, grasslands, wilderness, etc. City-A itself is the the size of a big city.

Like how there's City-Z the city and then there's City-Z the region with mountains, other towns and large tracks of uninhabited space.

 

[JustANormalPerson01]

Maybe a little off-topic, but if the cities regions are country-sized then maybe a rework is needed to the Meteor Calc, as it is stated to wipe out not only Z city but the cities on its vecinities as well, which means its range should include, not only the habitated part of Z city, but the non-habitated part of it as well

 

[EnderLord8]

So this topic will only really serve to update the meteor calculation.

 

[JustANormalPerson01]

Yeah, which would most likely end up upgrading Boros too

 

[MrTayman616]

The region of City-A is country sized with surrounding towns, grasslands, wilderness, etc. City-A itself is the the size of a big city.

Like how there's City-Z the city and then there's City-Z the region with mountains, other towns and large tracks of uninhabited space.

City A is destroyed and has nothing until the cities around it, no?

Also they usually specify if they are talking about the region or town (in raws)

Maybe a little off-topic, but if the cities regions are country-sized then maybe a rework is needed to the Meteor Calc, as it is stated to wipe out not only Z city but the cities on its vecinities as well, which means its range should include, not only the habitated part of Z city, but the non-habitated part of it as well

That's what i wanted to ask as well.

City Z shares a forest with City Y. within the city, it means entirety of the region.

 

[EnderLord8]

The meteor impact would destroy a good part of Cities B, D and Y according to the map

 

[EnderLord8]

OPM Z city size

I also found this image to have a base of the size of city Z

 

[EnderLord8]

The diameter of destruction needed to destroy the entire city Z would be more than 5000 KMs

Edit: The result of the calculation would be 6-A (Probably +1 Petaton)

 

[Qawsedf234]

City A is destroyed and has nothing until the cities around it, no?

You can see the vast expanse of nothing around City A that wasn't destroyed by Boros' ship and was still classified as being within the A-Region. The City is not the entire map, which is what you're seemingly trying to push for.

That's what i wanted to ask as well.

The translations used officially is "Surrounding Towns" and when we looked at it before it contextual makes more sense for it to be towns rather than the meteor destroying multiple cities at once, since the explosion radius would be an apocalypse at that point.
G

City Z shares a forest with City Y. within the city, it means entirety of the region

So you are proposing country sized cities then. Like I said I'm fully against it so list me as disagreeing with the proposal.

 

[EnderLord8]

In this section, an experienced translator may be needed to give an opinion... Besides, I thought there was only 1 city per territory.

Not to mention that there have been multiple High 6-A events in the world of OPM that did not lead to the actual apocalypse.

 

[Qawsedf234]

In this section, an experienced translator may be needed to give an opinion... Besides, I thought there was only 1 city per territory.

There is only one city, but there are surrounding villages and towns around each city as well. An OVA and bonus chapter even mentions a mountain villages to my memory.

Source?

I didn't know we considered OVAs canonical

 

[FinePoint]

I share Qawsed's concerns that the cities probably aren't actually the size of countries.

 

[Damage3245]

Agreed. Qaws makes sense here.

 

[Kachon123]

Isn't that sentiment already what's accepted? The regions are country-sized like the map in the anime shows, but the capital cities that they're named after aren't.

 

[Qawsedf234]

Isn't that sentiment already what's accepted?

Yeah. That's always been the accepted canon on the site.

 

[Kachon123]

Yeah. That's always been the accepted canon on the site.

Right, I thought so.

I'm pretty sure accepting the anime's depiction of the world map as accurate to the sizes of the regions is fine then.

 

[Kin201]

it is stated to wipe out not only Z city but the cities on its vecinities as well, which means its range should include, not only the habitated part of Z city, but the non-habitated part of it as well

Pretty sure the raw says "周辺の町" (shūhen no machi), which translates to surrounding towns, not cities.

Someone familiar with Japanese should check if the context refers to towns in the region in general, or if it is literally talking about other nearby alphabet cities.

 

[MrTayman616]

Yes. It does say surrounding towns. Not cities.

The meteor's case talks about the region. Saitama lives in the ghost town, which is in City-Z and Genos wouldn't leave it as Saitama lives in City-Z. Isn't Bang's dojo aso in mountains as well? He believes it would destroy it.

In this meteor's case, it wasn't just destroying the city part, but the entire region and towns around it.

So you are proposing country sized cities then. Like I said I'm fully against it so list me as disagreeing with the proposal.

I'm not proposing it, country sized city wouldn't include mountains, forests etc etc.

(Sry couldn't answer before, it's holiday here and wasn't at home )

It's correct.

"Cities" are referred with 市

 

[Kin201]

Isn't Bang's dojo aso in mountains as well? He believes it would destroy it.

In this meteor's case, it wasn't just destroying the city part, but the entire region and towns around it.

Yeah, but I don't think it's quantifiable? It would destroy more than the city, but it's unknown if the whole region itself would be wrecked.

 

[MrTayman616]

Yeah, but I don't think it's quantifiable? It would destroy more than the city, but it's unknown if the whole region itself would be wrecked.

They knew Ghost town was going to get destroyed before Genos made the statement. Same for Bang's dojo which is in mountains.

It refers to region.

 

[Kin201]

Bang's dojo and the Ghost Town would be destroyed along with nearby towns, but it's not like it is confirmed that the dojo is located at the edge of the region, no?

 

[MrTayman616]

Bang's dojo and the Ghost Town would be destroyed along with nearby towns, but it's not like it is confirmed that the dojo is located at the edge of the region, no?

"Bang's dojo and the Ghost Town would be destroyed along with nearby towns"

This isn't based on the knowledge of other towns getting destroyed, but that the entire "Z-City" getting destroyed.
