On the other topic, I agree that if Tatsumaki ever gets a better feat in the future, MB Boros should scale above her because she was unable to beat Saitama (she fully tried, knowing how prideful she is) yet he thought Boros was the strongest individual he had ever faced.
Nope. Unlike the battle with Psykos where she pushed her powers to the limits until they petered out and hurt herself it is obvious her interaction with Saitama was nowhere near that amount of power used.

That'll imply we scale MB Boros above Tatsumaki, and, well
 
Yeah sure Tatsumaki definitely used her full power there when Fubuki was utterly shocked at her sister's actual power in the Monster Association, when she didn't even bleed from her temples from the exertion, and where she didn't even destroy the ghost house they were on at the time. It's 100% in character for Tatsumaki to use her full power like that.

It's far more likely she used her power earnestly (But not max effort), saw that it didn't work, and got scared thinking it was an actual ghost.
 
Also Fubuki is a terrible judge of Tatsumaki's power. Reminder that she thought Gearsper was Tatsumaki when she sensed his power. She has no idea what her sister's limits actually are. I'm pretty sure nobody in the world did because Tatsumaki had never actually been matched until she fought Psyrochi.
 
I mean, Boros shouldn't scale to Tatsumaki anyway, since Saitama didn't even fight Tatsumaki, he just tanked her attack, Tatsumaki ran away and that's all
 
ONE very likely didn't intend for Tatsumaki to be as strong as she eventually became anyway tbh. The Audio Dramas are tie-ins for Season 1, they were released in Early 2016.

As of Season One, Tatsumaki was depicted as incapable of bringing down Boros' ship and also unable to drop meteors from the sky. Later on, around the time when Orochi was first introduced, Murata let out ONE's original plans slip in a livestream where he stated that Orochi existed so Tatsumaki would get weakened fighting him, to better explain the Cadres beating her. And back then Orochi was nowhere near as strong as the redraws made him out to be.

Tatsumaki only became insanely strong fairly recently when she fought the Psykos-Orochi Fusion.
 
I agree, definitely makes sense within common sense, but that would also fall in the weird territory of trying to guess Author intent and frame it as truth, as there's no direct proof of how strong first balding stage in training Saitama is meant to be.
And if we are talking about common sense i can't see why an Above Dragon level threat that's never depicted as particularly slow(quite the opposite) would be slow to the point of being blitzed by below above dragon level heroes. But similarly there's no direct proof about ONE's author intent and no direct indication in the story he has to be faster than them for scaling
 
But nothing is contradicting that scaling since we literally have zero idea about in-training Saitama's strength. And it remains true until ONE establishes the opposite. You guys forget that while authors aren't into powerscaling, they should take it into account. Boosting Tatsumaki's strength simply boosts Saitama's as well.
 
Considering in season 1 they changed surfice wiper boros to planet buster Boros, I can't wait for them to change Garou "receiving the knowledge over all energy and forces of the universe" to "Receiving the power of all the energy and forces of the universe" and thus 3-B/3-A anime Garou
 
Tatsumaki herself also stated that "ghost" surpassed her psychic power, though
Tatsumaki also wasn't aware that her psychic powers destroyed the lighting in the warehouse and still...

...Murata kind of established the opposite considering Tatsumaki was surprised that she had pushed herself to cause herself harm when fighting Psyko Orochi so that scaling is highly questionable anyway hence the "possibly".

Depends on author portrayal tbh. Considering Tatsumaki put herself into the hospital via this fight One and Murata won't be able to make her consistently stronger without giving her a power boost of some kind which would mean In training Saitama wouldn't scale.
 
We've seen this side of Garou for so many times, aren't you tired of this shit ?
Absolutely not, it's his character and it only has been 1 day. I want his motivations to be consistent and to explore them more fully- not for them to change
I swear, if God has a 3-A statement, people are gonna try to backscale it to Boros
The amount of people I've seen scaling Boros above God (before this of course) is crazy. People should know he's the biggest bad we're going to get
 
Nope. Unlike the battle with Psykos where she pushed her powers to the limits until they petered out and hurt herself it is obvious her interaction with Saitama was nowhere near that amount of power used.
Actually, Tatsumaki was damaged by God. She didn't exert herself that much. And about her getting hurt before that, her wounds were only open due to her being trapped by Psykorochi's inverse barrier. So, in reality, Tats was never hurt by exerting too much power, so, in that chapter, she wouldn't as well.
 
How does that contradict that Tatsumaki herself stated that the "ghost" surpassed her psychic powers?
That she clearly doesn't have a firm enough grasp of her abilities to say that the statement is scalable especially since when she was matched the narrative stakes were much higher.

I mean, even Fubuki herself knows that to surpass Tatsumaki's psychic power an enemy should be at the very least Above Dragon. How will Tarsumaki not know?


Plus Tatsumaki being scared of lights going off is most likely caused by his fear to a Ghost immune to his psychic power. You know, it's cliche for ghosts to play with electricity in fiction
 
Actually, Tatsumaki was damaged by God.
Lol this never happened. God and Tatsumaki never interacted until he tried to turn her into a monster.

Dude she literally coughed up blood and her using too much power was her reasoning.
 
The fact that she is asking that to herself and her being surprised, means that she doesn't seem to know why it happened.
Plus, it narratively fits. God just saw how his puppet got defeated by Tatsuamki, thus putting an end to his plan.

Not to mention he later tries to offer a deal to Tatsumaki, like he did to Garou and Psykos, acknowledging her potential as a tool. He has been watching the entire time.

Tatsumaki was literally bleeding when she pulled the mountains from the coastline. Was that God too? This is just a headcanon based on the fact that there's a moon in the panel.

Vice versa for you btw
It's not "vice versa" for me because I never said that CSRC was conclusively superior to Saitama's normal punches. But if you have to ask, the primary evidence would be the fact that Saitama used his SP in the first place. If he felt like he could've taken out CSRC with a casual punch or a couple, then he would have done so. But he didn't, which somewhat narratively implies that collapsing star roaring canon is equal or at least comparable to the CNP. Then again, it is entirely possible that not all normal punches are equal to each other, and he puts more or less effort depending on who he's fighting.
