STRONGEST One-Punch Man Discussion Thread!

He's not, Garou says he needs to copy Saitama's power and refine it to be invincible, implying his own strength is not enough.

Second part here sounds like straight NLF.

I don't know what NLF is.

I'm not saying that Garou is stronger than Saitama in terms of storytelling.
But according to this wiki, he is stronger. So, let's say if Garou shows resistance to acid, mental control, and disease, and Saitama doesn't, then Garou will have a better chance of winning this wiki.

That would be the No Limits Fallacy.

I don't think that we currently treat Garou as stronger than Saitama.

For real these animations been crazy , like this one actually looks and feels straight out of the anime only thing missing is voice acting

Like the guy earlier said, No Limits Fallacy.

I don't think we treat Garou as stronger in the wiki. Just that he has a better chance winning in matches due to his hax and skills.

Since Garou can't really hurt Saitama, I don't think he'd ever beat him in a versus thread even on this site

It doesn't mean he's stronger though. And not always a battle is won by the strongest character.

You are applying rock-paper-scissors logic here: paper beat rock who beat scissors, yet paper is beat by scissors

The same is in versus matches, if Garou shows resistance to (for example) Existance Erasure, yet Saitama doesn't, then a character with human AP but with thought-based EE can beat Saitama, but can't beat Garou. Does it mean Saitama is weaker than Garou? No. Saitama is physically stronger than Garou, but Garou has something Saitama lacks and is way more useful than AP in vs matches: hax, abilities which can ignore conventional durability.

Yeah, Saitama is stronger and can beat Garou, but it doesn't mean he can beat anyone Garou can beat

You high?

He means that in this wiki vs other characters he is better than saitama

Guys let’s be realistic there is no way season 3 isn’t going to be a CGI fest. Even the guys who animated season one would have to fall back on CGI

 

[ByAsura]

I’d love to see the people who animated the Boros fight also do the PS vs Garou vs Flashy fight.

What's the general consesus on how much S3 will cover?

 

[Apeironaxim]

i know there would be communication to make it not happen prob, but imagine if at some point in future seasons, they animated an episode only for that chapter/event to be redrawn later

 

[Magmag]

What's the general consesus on how much S3 will cover?

if its 1 cour/12 episodes, saitama vs orochi were god is revealed is a decent cliffhanger ending point but quite unsatisfying.
if its 2 cours/24-26 episodes, it could end at garou monsterizing underground, tats pulls the heroes up and they're meeting up on the surface.

 

[Lightning_XXI]

I mean, Garou will be far more dangerous than Saitama in this site against other verses, hax makes all the difference, specially when it's as broken as Garou's

you just wait for Saitama to get power null via punching the powers out of someone's body

 

[LordTracer]

But it only works on characters weaker than him, so he’s still fodder

 

[Apeironaxim]

but plot twist, Saitama's broken limiter and other bullshit means he adapts and always becomes strong enough to oneshot someone if they ever manage to match or surpass him, making it so he never gets an actual fight

 

[Apeironaxim]

honestly i feel like the most thematically appropriate haxes/abilities Saitama would get would be being able to punch powers and destroy them, and also all the NPIs so he can punch everything

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

He need Regen neg too

 

[Wardokman69]

All type regen negs + all type of immortality negs + conceptual manipulation + NPI that can affect NEP + acausality negs + transduality negs + passive powernull + resistance to resistance negation

 

[Nehz_XZX]

If Saitama is revealed to have Regeneration Negation, then Boros either resisted it or Saitama didn't use it. Alternatively Saitama didn't know he could do that and just ends up doing it once he really needs it.

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

I could be fine with the latter

 

[Apeironaxim]

If Saitama is revealed to have Regeneration Negation, then Boros either resisted it or Saitama didn't use it. Alternatively Saitama didn't know he could do that and just ends up doing it once he really needs it.

iirc his thing with Boros was trying to give him a fight Boros would be happy with, so just deciding not to use it would actually be in character

Watch it being useless because it negs the power given to him by God

Ending as "Power Bestowal Negation instead of Power Null

 

[Apeironaxim]

legit this would be the most likely thing. If Saitama somehow punched the powers out of God out of Garou, it would be explained to be super specific, like only working on bestowed powers, or only work because God's bestowed power couldn't handle being hit by that much force, which would then make it a weakness of God's powers. I would have absolutely zero hope of it just being a blanket power null

 

[Arnoldstone18]

Or… Saitama’s power is too vast for.. um… Garou to copy.

 

[Nehz_XZX]

Ending as "Power Bestowal Negation instead of Power Null

Power Besowal Negation sounds interesting to me as a concept though it would be really specific and not very useful in the vast majority of matches.

 

[Ovrhide]

That’s the real reason. People here just want to entertain other possibilities.

How about we all entertain some maidens

Power Bestowal Negation sounds cool and lowkey funny.

eques

 

[Dienomite22]

Regardless of my opinion on the manga, seeing Garou's consistent jump from tier to tier from chapter to chapter was entertaining though I wish he had a High 6-A key.

worst key in existence, nothing and i mean nothing is worse than High 6-A.

Don't worry, once GRB CRT comes, people'll find a way to downgrade OPM verse to such tier /j

 

[Dienomite22]

Any key beyond 2-A is far worse than High 6-A and each key gets progressively worse.

Objectively wrong because Tier 2 and Tier 1 exist.

tier 2 and 1 are so hot, especially in opm. high 6-a is barf.
