STRONGEST One-Punch Man Discussion Thread!

He switched hands? He was holding his nose with his left hand. Then switches to his right hand before pulling away.

He did indeed switch hands but was still covering his nose, wiping away water, also if Saitama got hurt, he would literally be creaming himself since his literal end goal and entire life is too get a good fight…

I think Saitama and the manga itself would have make it a bigger deal if Saitama was actually injured.

That's only an assumption, though. If Saitama said he got hurt, then he got hurt, nothing we can do about it. It's very light damage, but damage regardless.

This is also an assumption too, Saitama never specifically referred to his physical being…

Another assumption. It doesn't have to match your personal interpretation or expectations.
Saitama wiped his nose with a different hand, there seems to be something similar to blood stains right under said nose, then he says he got hurt.

This is very blatant.

That's playing Devil's Advocate.
He got hit with a physical blow matching his casual strength then complained about being hurt after wiping his nose. Again, very blatant stuff, you're just in denial for something so minor.
 
Can we not?

we have a legit 5-A feat that doesn’t involve saitama, let’s not fight over whether Saitama was hurt or not. He is irrelevant to this major upgrade.

I mean... it's kind of a big deal. Most of us have been watching this series for years and this is the first time saitama possibly took damage. You can't just tell us to not talk about that

This is "one punch man discussions", not "Garou CRT"

Complaning about people discussing something is nonsense, I will continue to talk about whatever I want as long as it's within topic, leave me alone.
 
now that the hype has died down a bit, im starting to dislike a couple things from this chapter. mainly, i dont like how garou is spamming energy attacks now. i know i said that i wanted garou to get a major buff in his AP, but he's literally throwing kamehamehas around. it just absolutely doesnt seem like his fighting style and doesnt fit his "theme", which is the fact that he usually gets overpowered physically and his martial arts is what saves him. but now he's just a walking nuclear bomb
 
btw would like a clarification due limited knowledge on the subject

could a gamma ray burst also come from a neutron star

Garou's nuclear attacks are all physical, the nuclear explosions are a consequence. His copy is also physical.
The only energy attack he used was GRB

Saitama getting hurt by his own Consecutive Normal Punches? You must be insane.
Click to expand...
Incredulity isn't going to change anything. You can cope about it, it's not really a big deal.

He got very lightly damaged on the nose by a normal attack. A serious one would've caused a lot more, naturally.

I'm with you here. The gap between normal and serious punches is huge. It'd be weird if Garou damaged Saitama with a normal punch and then proceeded to do no damage with his quasar attack, which is what I think will happen. I know we want to apply the CRT right now but I'd rather wait for future chapters to see how Saitama took the attack and what he does after it.

Life gets pretty boring when you can beat the snot out of any villain with just one punch.

^^this is official…therefore Saitama is referring to scratched _______, which in this case is his appearance.
Click to expand...
And "scratched" isn't being hurt? I am not saying Saitama had his molar broke by Garou's normal punch, I was arguing for Saitama being physically affected at all rather than just taking absolutely 0 damage from the attack. This official translation just confirms it.

Something is bigger after some times passes? Never heard of it. Expanding black holes? Nope.
Click to expand...
Garou scales to the size of the black hole upon it's creation, not after it absorbed matter. The size is still wrong.
Even then we don't see it visibly absorb matter and it's shape is also wrong. It seems to be an inconsistent portrayal so the smaller size should be used.

The shape is wrong? What? Are you saying because Murata didn't illustrate the wider shot with proper detail we can't use it over the initial close-up?

It didn't absorb anything other than Garou's own energy.

Uhm, you know Garou can just make it bigger by simply putting more energy in it, no reason to use a previous panel.

I said the nose bleed was indicative, not definitive.
Saitama getting lightly hurt is definitive. You're coping over that. Don't move the goalposts on me, Therefir.
Click to expand...
Cope? What goalposts? This is a rather bizarre hill to die on.

I would rather just wait, but I'm 99% sure Saitama is not actually physically hurt by any means.

"hill to die on"?
Brother, you're denying a definitive statement for your own personal expectations.

Saitama: "Bruh, I got scratched"
You: "Nah, he talking about his clothes"
Get outta here with that nonsense. Saitama got physically affected, he got hurt, barely scratched by his normal punch. That's just it.
