STRONGEST One-Punch Man Discussion Thread!

sad thing is that Genos has the abilities to fend of a multi continental level monster. The fact that he only takes Ls is just misfortune

It's cause they refuse to give him matches that he stomps in. He only goes up against new, powerful enemies.
 
Genos is mostly a robot, for all we know he might just need another core to be back up.

OPM is not the kind of series to permanently kill main characters, even some villains such as Do-S, Hellfire Flame, Gale Wind and Phoenix Man end up being resurrected.
 
Someone said Blast stated that like Garou, he has the ability to manipulate the properties of the universe, so can we basically copy paste Cosmic Garou's superpowers to Blast's profile? Lol

Also people are unironically saying Blast would get clapped by Garou now even though he's clearly holding back to prevent collateral damage, he's only like ten or so meters away from the rest of the heroes.

Issue is that from what I've seen on this forum, either Manga haters get really heated and toxic, or don't use narrative critiques, instead simply saying "Well in the WC..."

But the webcomic isn't perfect either. Why does its loyalty to the WC have anything to do with its own merits? I mean I can appreciate real crituques, like yours about the possible fakeout death or the OOC moment, but for example, Dienomite22, back when the table scene was the latest chapter critqued that Garou by saying he was a joke compared to the WC. Like so what? Unless you're going to argue that it damages the manga's narrative in a vacuum, it's pointless, essoteric conjecture.

You bring up the table scene as if it’s wrong to critique it.
If I think a 6 year build up of Garou is being payed off with mediocre art (factually true by Murata’s standards), terrible writing (my opinion but one that I have voiced even without mentioning the webcomic), and a lack luster battle, I’m gonna critique it.

I've seen people beginning to downplay Blast as well. People are calling him fodder over being likely weaker than CF Garou, who is literally the strongest antagonist ever seen with the exception of God, and the 3rd strongest character overall. I think Blast having a first fight could've been better, especially in regards to build-up, but in terms of his first performance in combat, Blast isn't lacking at all.

The fact that he held up so well, didn't even get hit once, and has little if any implications of even using his full power is all very impressive.

I'm more surprised that Garou himself was barely surprised at seeing Blast at all.

What? Blast is weak because he is not stronger than Cosmic Garou???? I guess 99% of the verse is weak huh, despite it having several tier 6 dudes
 
Shoutout to the guy building Genos's stuff just being able to make High 6-A stuff. Dude's an old man in the middle of nowhere but nah, "lemme make someone tier 7-6 with a High 6-A attack, i got some spare parts"
 
Blast healed from the damage that he had when he showed up in front of Tatsumaki. Possibly hinting that time is different wherever Blastice league operates.
 
Actually, that may be about Blast's powers, at least part of them, coming from God. There must be a reason as to how and why he knows and hunts the cubes and all his info about how they work. I wouldn't be surprised if he made some sort of deal
 
Absolutely love this chapter, but I wonder if this will make it impossible to make vs matches with Garou since he now has passive radiation hax that'll let him gradually overwhelm his opponents. That and he's basically a martial arts god by this point with the ability to instantly copy his opponent's techniques.

Thing is, he's definitely stronger than Cosmic Garou. He's holding back because the heroes are literally meters away and landed multiple hits on him whereas Garou, who's definitely trying to hurt Blast, never landed a single hit.

Don't worry, there are many broken people around, I know one in specific that resists both Power Mimicry and Radiation Manipulation

But that's the price of being broken, the stronger you are, less fights you have

It's why making fights with the top tier Hunter x Hunter characters is ******* impossible, because their Nen Crush just destroys almost every opponent in the same tier, and anyone who does have resistance to Nen Crush is just in an entirely different tier.
 
wait if Garou will have a High 4-C then he is the same tier as rimuru tempest, and both can copy powers and have passive radiation

I know that feeling

One of my all time favorites, Vampire Hunter D, is a Tier 8 with Tier 1 hax and resistances 💀

I never found a good battle for him
 
Garou vs Blast is weird. They both seem to be holding back in a way. Garou doesn’t care and seems only interested in making Saitama fight serious while Blast is more interested in taking the battle to some where more suitable. I think it’s best to say they are simply comparable.

D is that guy, I watched both movies and read the manga like 2 years ago, loneliest character oat, he watches everyone grow and die old in his life, his only friend is his left hand. And no I don’t meant it like that lol.

I know the translations are not done yet, but it seemed for me that Garou was...not really super pushing himself but not casual either, just fighting seriously

Blast's AP description should just be a direct scaling to Garou

Yeah, he is lonely af and has been that way for over 10000 years, an amazing character

Glad you saw the movies, the manga and liked, the novels are the best material, trust me, if you like to read books, give them a chance
