bruh I can see it clearly that the clown is the mc, like who do stuff like that in the past chapters with bandits,pillagers,villains,etc..only the mc remember his early days before he rescued alpha, it's the same behaviour
I don't think it's Cid. Just my 2 cents, but I think it's one of Zeta's group.

I haven't read OPM for some time, but Saitama does actually get serious and move to save people because while he doesn't think of himself like a big hero, he IS ACTUALLY a hero. His perception of danger is skewed, but his character and actions make sense. He exists in the world and interacts with it, unlike Cid which doesn't even seem to believe that any of it is real.

This extends to the story, which is my complaint about tension. Nothing feels in peril since actual escalation might break Cid's illusion bubble. Named characters will be put in danger and then be saved by the good guys while Cid LARPs about being a small birthday boy or something. 30 dead students? Whatever, he got to do his act! Wasn't that cool?
While Cid believes the world exists, he doesn't believe his own bullshit, even though he's right. Every Cult base they've taken down he thinks are just normal bandits, he thinks the girls are just humoring him and the rest are paid extras, Cid is an idiot, that's the joke.

I think Cid is the Clown, the girl just enjoys seeing them dead because she knows they're corrupt
I don't think it's Cid, but it does have to be someone in his group, my guess someone on Zeta's side.

The clown is very likely to be cid, it brought up the rules for kill at start of chapter and when the thug guy was being pathetic the clown stopped

It'll all be solved by Cid's chuuni fantasy roleplay anyways. There's just no tension in the plot. Some new people get introduced and dies, MC never takes it seriously, and powers behind the scene will make it all good. Hooray. Next cult, next plot, next otherworld invention, next chuuni fantasy roleplay that gets misinterpreted as 4D chess genius 2000IQ move.
I don't think we ever had a need for tension it's a dumb guy doing dumb things it's for fun not drama

Unfortunately the journey is being greatly hampered by Cid constantly trying to find his next LARP. At some point of seeing so many people die, you gotta realise that stuff is REALLY HAPPENING, right?

opm has not changed at all. the story is always the same fake tension until saitama shows up to one shot everything. it having a serious moment here and there doesn't change how the story is a satire with no real tension.

This story isn't about heroism after all. He's only doing what he want hunting bad people, but he never once claimed to be on the justice side.
best part about this is that cid(shadow) has said he doesn't care if people think he's a villain or a hero yet we still get people who think he needs to be the hero that saves everyone just because he has the power to do so. it's like expecting goku or luffy or ichigo to go out of their way to go and save someone on the other side of the planet/universe/island just because some villains are terrorizing people they don't know. none of them call themselves heroes and quite the opposite they say they don't want to be heroes.

after someone pointed out that the clown is numbering the kills with the cards i became fully convinced the clown is cid. that's the type of edgelord shit he lives for. i just can't see it being anyone else but him.
