STRONGEST One-Punch Man Discussion Thread!

Well an important note is that Flashy is faster than the Ninja duo, but not massively faster. Since he mentioned that he needed to take both out at once, since one could get away.

So he is faster, but not by an amount that they can't escape him.

Well there is probably more to that than just raw speed as well. They're ninja's, they know the base well, and the base is constructed like a maze outside of the arena they fought in. But yeah he isn't a hundred times faster or something. Still enough to blitz though. They ain't coming near PS's speed.
 
I was thinking of an argument that could have Saitama obtain a couple dozen of resistances, but the reasoning used is controversial at best and complety unacceptable at worst...

The Ninjas got blitzed by his Flashy Kicks. Flashy was holding back the whole time.

They weren’t blitz at all, nothing in that scan depicts that they were blitz at all.
All we see is them charging towards Flashy, and then he turns and kicks them while they were a distance away from him. They ran into his attacks, where is it stated he blitz them?
Therefir said:
Which is confirmed later on when Flashy used his "Maximum Speed Flashy Kicks" against Blast.

This isn’t evidence of anything, it’s literally just letting us know he wasn’t holding back against Blast. There’s 0 reason to assume he was holding back against the ninjas once they went all out.
And since Flashy didn’t say “full speed” with any of his attacks against Ps and Garou ig he was holding back. This isn’t evidence of anything.
RinneItachi said:
Flashy literally perception blitzed and killed them at the end of the fight, bisecting both of them so fast that they didn't process something happened until they had already been killed. He was casual the whole time and not nearly at full speed. PS was a bit faster than Flashy Flash, but they're on a similar level. PS perception blitz's them.
Click to expand...
Why are you claiming he perception blitz them? He attacked them from behind while they were stunned in the air, and immediately after they were cut they literally looked at their frozen and bisected body. It’s head canon to claim they were blitz especially when this isn’t shown at all. It’s all an assumption.
Why are you assuming Flashy was holding back?

If this isn't a blitz then I don't know what it is lol.

Idk what kinda cope you are on to think they weren't completely blitzed by the end of the fight but k

Attacking someone from behind is a blitz now? Boros hit Saitama in the back of his head, he blitz him!!!

He’s not much faster than them, it’s very likely that they’re relative vs him just being faster.

If he was fast enough to BLITZ THEM no amount of trying to escape from him would work, as he would just straight up statue them.
They’re literally equals outside of the instakill.
Flashy only option of beating them was the flashy slash, they should scale to him in ap and speed.


Can anyone address this?

Nah, its Season 1 Episode 23. Where a guy says this

Implying the Black Hole will eventually consume everything. And then the show follows that up with this incredibly meme statement

For non-science people here's what 6.7 Tera Electron volts would be
  • 6.7 TeV = 6.7 * 10^12 eV
  • 6.7e+12 / 6.242e+18 = 1.07345829855e-6 Joules
You take more energy to physically exist by an order of seven magnitudes than it would take to stop this black hole.

I scale myself to planetary level so this is consistent
 
yeah im 90% sure they were just holding back against Flash, and Garou didnt start adapting until he was fighting PS solo

even then though, a held-back PS was enough to make Flash freak out about people being faster than him
 
They were holding back, the narrator said the two remaining lights started to move faster + something about the lights forming an even denser structure in the sky
 
Emirp sumitpo said:
One could argue PS and Gaoru were even being able to casual against Flash and didn't go all out until later.
Click to expand...
You can’t argue that, because being punched in the face, being damaged in the process, and ending up having to use a defensive maneuver to block those punches says a lot.
Emirp sumitpo said:
Plus Flash freaked out against PS but didn't give a shit about the ninja bros
Click to expand...
Freaked out because he was much faster than Flashy himself and against the Ninjas flashy visually felt some type of way.
Why do people keep ignoring this?

So Garou saying he feels his techniques developing and uses an attack that is a fusion of all techniques he has learned before is him holding back? Him smacking Ps in the face, visibly hurting him and then goes to use a much stronger attack (which flashy survived) is them holding back?

Nothing suggest he was holding back, it’s just an assumption to say so.

“Accelerating forever, just like Garou’s Synapses.”
This statement literally says their speed was constantly growing, at an alarming rate hencr “endlessly” and compares it to Garou’s ability to grow stronger as he fights.
So this isn’t an example of Ps and Garou holding back, it’s just an example of accelerated development.
Crazy enough, ps and Garou would have made hundreds of more exchanges in their battle and Garou has been shown to quickly be able to grow from being one shot by someone holding back to matching their full power in a short timeframe. So for Ps to be fighting against him for so long without being pretty quickly is literally impossible without him growing himself.
jplion123 said:
just makes PS look more impressive tbh. ninja bros get blitzed by Flash while a held-back PS is faster than a full speed Flash, to the point of making him freak out
Click to expand...
When did Flasht blitz the ninjas?
 
Doesn't Flashy Flash explicitly say the Ninja Bros haven't adapted to their new monster speed yet, so they needed to be in a more open area? Hence the huge cavern they fight in.

I don't think the issue is that they're much slower than Flashy Flash in terms of combat/movement speed, I think they just haven't had enough time to let their perception speeds catch up. If FF was too far above them, he could have instantly blitzed them both, regardless of how far away they were, and would have definitely avoided their strikes.

nah. saitama jumped from the moon to Earth effortlessly. I wouldn't be surprised if one day Saitama actually jumps to another solar system

As big a leap in logic as that is, I don't mean to say it's impossible. I was referring your statement that he probably did it after the GRB.
