STRONGEST One-Punch Man Discussion Thread!

[Emirp sumitpo]

Why do we even list "Higher with Gaia Cannon"? What implies that it's an attack move stronger than Orochi himself and not just a strong attack move?

It isn't like the CSRC where the CSRC is very much established to be higher than Boros himself. Whereas I don't remember such an implication for Orochi.

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

Also, Garou's statement translates to 'You know, if I'd met you before, I'd be in a lot of trouble', potentially suggesting even Flashy Flash could be above Golden Sperm.

THANK YOU.

The conception of speedsters being physically weaker needs to die pls.

 

[Maverick_Zero_X]

Speed-wise what was the yield of this beam again?

The interpretation of ONE's statement doesn't make much sense in context.

Even in a massively weakened state, Tatsumaki could use her remaining power to completely immobilise Garou who curbstomped Golden Sperm.

Yeah, I was gonna bring this up since I recently finished the Garou arc. Golden Sperm being relative to a full power Tatsumaki doesn’t make much sense.

Cuz Attack>charge up…

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

Cuz Attack>charge up…

And?

 

[Magmag]

And?

And it’s higher.

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

How does it being a charged attack means it's higher than Orochi himself?

Gaia Cannon should much much higher than Orochi's normal punches.

 

[ByAsura]

I looked into the raws, and this is what Sweet Mask says.

黄金精子...かつてない 強怪人だ

全員がかりでも あれを仕留めるのは 骨が折れるな...

I think (there's a couple translations I've found, and I'm mostly going off kanji) what he's actually saying is that Golden Sperm's strength is unprecedented, and that he'll be extremely difficult to kill even with all the heroes. But I could be wrong.

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

Gaia Cannon should much much higher than Orochi's normal punches.

Ok but why tho

 

[Magmag]

Ok but why tho

Ur just running in circles with the question. It’s a logical thing, no need to complicate it.

 

[Kin201]

Ok but why tho

Because Orochi refers to Gaia Cannon as his "full power"? What evidence do you need other than that?

 

[ByAsura]

I don't think we should scale ultimate attacks unless there's reason, such as Piccolo surviving Goku's Super Kamehameha or verse mechanics.

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

Because Orochi refers to Gaia Cannon as his "full power"? What evidence do you need other than that?

That's just his peak strength. "Higher with Gaia Cannon" implies it to be stronger than Orochi himself.

 

[ByAsura]

Wouldn't that refer to his strength after he absorbs the energy to throw at Saitama?

Simply absorbing energy is not part of the attack itself.

Wdym?

 

[ByAsura]

I'm saying the Gaia Cannon doesn't scale to his full power because full power probably refers to his strength + the energy he absorbed. He's just sort of counting his eggs in one basket.

 

[Kin201]

Yeah, Gaia Cannon is referred to as his full power + the energy he absorbs from Earth's core. It is also a charged attack, thus should scale much much much higher than his normal punches.

 

[Kin201]

Even though it was treated like a joke by Saitama, I think we should respect Gaia Cannon, cuz it was really a powerful attack. One of the strongest attacks shown in the series.

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

I guess that's a good enough reason.

 

[Kin201]

That reminds me of Boros. Do we scale his punches above Gaia Cannon based on Saitama referring to his blows as "strong"?

 

[LordTracer]

Does it really matter? It’s the same value regardless of if he scales above Orochi’s normal output or the Gaia Cannon.

 

[Therefir]

I'm surprised Sage Centipede hasn't been killed yet, you would have thought he was just a one-chapter villain.

But he is still there, somehow.

 

[LordTracer]

He’ll probably die next chapter since Garou yeeted his regeneration core.

 

[Kin201]

It matters to me at least because yesterday I made a post assuming that was the case.

Some people seem disappointed that Sage Centipede is weaker than Orochi.

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

Sage Centipede is likely gonna die next chapter ngl.

Either that or he'll get some bullshit amp. I dunno, he'll probably merge with EOW or something

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

I'd probably say Gaia Cannon as Saitama didn't seem to give a **** about that.

 

[Magmag]

Really?! I’m quite happy that Orochi hasn’t been thrown aside even more. He was clowned on by Saitama but he still stands as #1 in the MA, not including psykorochi.

 

[Magmag]

Either that or he'll get some bullshit amp. I dunno, he'll probably merge with EOW or something

Nah, Garou will definitely finish him off in the air with the suspenseful moon in the background.

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

Sage Centipede ******* yeets himself into the air and crashes and drills into the moon

 

[Magmag]

The real question is will we get a outer space panel of SC fully stretched reaching the thermosphere?!

 

[Magmag]

Sage Centipede ******* yeets himself into the air and crashes and drills into the moon

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

Honestly, this is the type of shit I want to see Awakened Garou do

 

[Magmag]

Garou splits earth, Saitama punches it so hard it goes back together.

 

[ByAsura]

What manga is that?

Edit: Oof. Never mind.

 

[Quangotjokes]

Moon damage is prob unlikely unless there's webcomic retcons. Can't really see any feats past multi con. Saitama however with table flip is about to hit large planet.

I hope there’s a specific timeframe told by Garou for table flip, if Saitama throws the baseline weight of a continent into the air for 5 minutes what results could that yield?

 

[AtomicSekiro]

Orochi is the first being to somewhat stalemate a serious attack.

A very gag-y serious attack, but still.
