Btw, why people keep saying "Passive radiation".

Like, radiation is by nature passive already lol.
Because people thought it was the radiation after effect of his techniques that caused the radiation and not that he himself is passively radiating cosmic rays by existing.
 
the reddit loses their minds whenever i mention that Garou's earth bulge feat is better than any non-CSRC attack Boros has
 
Garou beat most of the S class with his presence.
Didn't defeated Flashy Flash, therefore Flash scales 🗿

I wouldn't be surprised if Flash says something like being on those guys level because "we all withstood his presence", that's Flash's style of wanking himself

Btw, seriously, this is a great addition to his Stamina section and Supernatural Willpower at this point, or maybe some limited resistance to Radiation
 
Only people with resistance are God, Blast, Saitama and Garou. Possible future proponent would be espers who could shield themselves from it.
 
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
i read part of the first volume but i just cant read books like that without visualizing already animated things. If i started off with the novels it would've been much better but its far to late now😕
 
Also, just noticed

Blast being around equal to Garou kinda kills the copium chances of Boris showing up, scaling to Garou and then calling himself the number 2 of his race

The only hope of Boros scaling 🗿

We also kinda can confirm now that Garou didn't absorbed Saitama into that "black hole" and BFR him somewhere, like how a lot of people was saying the previous chapter.
 
Page 41-42

Saitama: Genos. You've always tried your best to keep up with me. You really are a hero. Though you never really managed to catch up. Do I... really possess the will of a hero? Probably not...

After that its the clash between two serious punch. Blast said this energy they are unleashing from their clash is going to shatter the Earth at the end of the chapter.
 
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.
Mediocre art? Jesus Christ what the hell? I hope you know how that makes you sound. Saying "factually true by Murata's standard" doesn't help. The art is the same as it has been for the past, like, 100 chapters. I think the Saitama at the start was drawn more cartoony and cute, sure, but that's just different styles. That's not evidence the art has "objectively" fallen off.

I mean we've had this discussion on Garou's writing. This Garou has always, (until now), been portrayed as more human, and less of a force of nature, so this change is consistent. Even back 60+ chapters ago, Garou blocking "Death Shower" "coincidentally", deflected it perfectly away from the house, only damaging its sides, preventing Tareo from dying.

Almost like it's a consistent part narrative that Garou's fights don't hurt civilians, and usually protect them instead. Not to mention anyone with a brain, (which Saitama has), would see that Garou has killed nobody, and is just a lost and broken young adult. Tareo caring for him confirms as much, and it would be pretty immoral for Saitama to see this, and just beat the sh*t out of him anyways without trying to help him.

While it was not meant to be a personal attack on you, it is a pretty objective fact that the vast majority of your critiques were related to the WC. For every "SC killed the pacing" arguments, you had 10 "but in the Webcomic there was an S class fight" talking points.

This is fine, like what you like, and what you don't for your own reasons. The issue is that you package those arguments as objective critiques of the story, calling it "sh*t", and poking fun at people who enjoy the Manga, when no one does the same for you and the WC.

I'd love to actually discuss this piece of art's (because yes, I think Manga, just like television and books can qualify as art) merits with you.

The difference between having a character fill a force of nature roll, versus a confused antagonist is major, and the narrative consequences are something worth discussing, and if it's good or bad is also up for discussion. I have simply posited that it is consistent with this representation of Garou.

The person you are replying to is one of those elitists. They try to hide it, but is so easy to see them for what they are.

Well if you were going to criticize his art it would be due to larger amount of background less panels and everyone becoming glowy to easily separate then from the background.

But the art isn't bad or anything. Murata didn't become Rob Liefield or something.
 
First, Garou will pulverize Saitama's legs with a Devil Cry Low Kick, he'll never stand again. Then, Garou will utterly shatter his arms with a Bear Killer Mid Kick. Following that up, Saitama's internal organs with be ruptured and crushed by a Shura Straight Punch, reducing him to the brink of finality. Lastly, a Hell Dispatch Chop will split Saitama's skull open, sending him to the world beyond. Saitama should say goodbye to this world while he still can.
 
Saitama vs Garou was arguably the most anticipated event there has been in the manga, it's natural people would expect Murata to bring his A game. I still like the art but a lot of the previous fights were better drawn
 
Muratas art isnt as great as it was in the beginning because nowadays opm is a bi-weekly manga with expected release dates. Murata has to fit to a schedule, unlike in the first arc where he could release a chapter every month or two.
 
The evolution of popular power scaling has changed massively over the time of the Monster arc.

remember, it started out as Saitama > Boros = Garou >>>>> than everyone else.

Who would have guess that at the time, Tatsumaki vs psychorohi would change everything.
 
That one dude on the reddit that insists Boros is Star Level and is equal to cosmic Garou is gonna be in shambles

A lot of people on reddit are very accepting of Garou >>> Boros. I though a fan war was going to start but people moved on quick. Of course there’s still people like that person.
