Have you read the original webcomic?
It's the one with awful drawing.
I disagree with anime is better than manga. The manga win simply because of detail.

Just because opm is great doesn't make superman is boring.
Don't take the superman hater seriously.
The awful drawings were essentially why I didn't read it.
Normally I'd agree, Manga over Anime, I've had this discussion with my friends who feel the opposite it true, but in some cases I believe seeing the events animated has a bigger impact, One Punch Man, being such a case and to a certain extents Bleach was the same, I'm not saying the scenes don't look cool, but I feel they have a bigger impact when animated. Again using One Punch Man, the scene where they focus in on Saitama on the alien ship, they kept zooming in on him, and while it looked cool, by the time I scrolled past the images to get past all the zooming in, I was frustrated and just wanted to get on with it, and it's not like the chapters are that long, I'd say I finished reading the 83 chaptesr in under 3 hours, which for me is not long at all.
I watched the anime and manga on the same day, and felt the anime had a bigger impact.
Here's the thing: the sites are doing a poor job on keeping tracks. It's the volume releases that actually keeps the order correctly. Like there's no real chapter 80s or whatever. Therefore, you're going to get lost many times.
Since you're using MP, yes, they did screw up and yes, there are missing side chapters, which explains why you feel lost. Actually, that magazine is crucial when it comes to side story. For example, Tokyo Ghoul:re has a side chapter yet MP didn't put it. However, that chapter is very much needed for the main story. I wouldn't say it's very much needed for OPM main plot, but it adds a lot of variety and there are stories that you can relate to and/or just great stuff.
As for visual action use in manga, to each of their own. Think as for anime wise, you can have crappy story and all, but if the animation is intense, all is forgiven. Well, OPM doesn't fall to that, but my actual point is that OPM satisfy that type of fans, where they want to see a moving visual presentation. In fact, you can find post at tumblr and it is pretty stunning. Something like that could make me forgive Bleach more but Kubo doesn't do that. Anyway, to each of their own.
OK now i'm confused isn't OPM published in Jumps weekly publication? So who would the sites be doing a poor job of keeping them in order?
I don't 100% with the last part, if the story is crap doesn't matter how intense the animation is, a crappy story will stay crappy, classic example is Guilty Crown, it is to date one of the most visually pleasing animes I have seen, but the story was so dull and convoluted that I dropped it. though the opposite is also true, if the story is good but the animation and art direction is bad the anime will be ignored, an example of this is, Ultimate Otaku teacher, I loved the eary parts of this manga, but the anime studio did such a lousy job with the animation I couldn't get past the first few episodes.
OPM lends strongly to it's visual style, both in the anime and manga, if the main charactor was drawn as bland as he is is, and then the other heroes and enemies were not drawn on the complete opposite spectrum. it wouldn't have the same impact, It's the visual disparity that sells the manga, without it, the series would be amusing but would not recieve the same level of success it has seen. I'm not denying the art is not some of the best I've ever seen, but the way OPM leans towards it's visual presentation more than most for it's story telling, having it animated (at the level it has been so far) just makes more sense to me.
