STRONGEST One-Punch Man Discussion Thread!

People treat it like it's some kind of super amazing and powerful thing...but hell, it's literally just an instinctive reaction, which you can have without needing a damn transformation.
like the series wants to make it seem like something super special, but it is just...instinctive reaction, alot of characters have that and they don't even have a transformation.
sonic can just automatically hit his enemies with a homing attack without even needing to see them

Then db must be really fodder in skill if that is considered the ultimate skill in their verse I’ve had people tell me goku can dodge saitama zero punch because of his skill

Like even garou was fighting why not even conscious which seems more impressive let alone cosmic garou

is not considered the ultimate skill, but it considered a hard skill to achieve (even harder than having ERASURE)

yes, saitama could, no rather, he should be able to copy it (although as I already said, the skill itself is just a rather restricted way of having an instinctive reaction)
 
I'm not sure Saitama want MUI's reaction speed. Even MUI may fall short, as all his physical attributes will surpass his opponent from the moment the match starts.
 
angels in dragon ball training their entire lives to master ultra instinct 😴.

Problem is i can't really see him using it in character in a vsbattle setting, beyond say, a character spamming an ability to run away/stall him only for him to get pissed enough to use the same skill purely to undo it.

We have bloodlust for that.

It's very common.

Saitama's true ability is to do whatever the hell he wants to do. Removing your Limiter in OPM is actually pretty limitless from the looks of it. I mean, we already see people that have limiters doing space-time warping and whatnot.

It's also funny that while he isn't really smart he can still outperform Extraordinary Geniuses in understanding phenomena and replicating techniques somehow.

Serious Saitama is pretty scary.

Yeah I mean I'm pretty sure that removing your Limiter removes the limits to ALL growth. Not just strength, speed, and durability. Saitama also has gained a limitless capacity for knowledge, which is why even extremely advanced forms of martial arts breaching into supernatural territories of capabilities just look like flashy moves to him, meanwhile a technique that allows one to manipulate their molecules and time travel only requires him to focus a little bit to get the hang of it. I have no doubt that if he wanted to he could probably also become a super-scientist in all fields surpassing Child Emperor, Genus, and Metal Knight in everything they're good at. He just has absolutely 0 interest in it. If he has the capacity to understand how to time travel, I think he would have the capacity to learn how to build complex machines and manipulate DNA. But Saitama's only desire is to fight strong people.

The only reason he appears kind of "stupid" a lot of the time is because he literally doesn't care about anything and is just living his life hoping that the one thing he wants comes around someday. Saitama is a tragic character who quite literally lost his motive in living. Why expect him to remember everyone's name when he just couldn't care less these days.

Anyways yeah it's funny that for the longest time it seemed like Saitama was gonna be pretty much the definition of a strong haxless character who just relies on physical stats. But by the end of the series he might actually become some kinda reality warper at this rate.

wonder if removing the limiter has anything to do with knowledge, omniscient saitama would be sick

Probably. There is a limit to the capacity for our knowledge. The idea of a Limiter should apply to this, and thereby removing it would remove said limitations. Though on the other hand it's kinda implied that the Limiter specifically applies to physical attributes so could be wrong, but it would explain why Saitama's ability to learn new things is so absurd. Just getting really strong and fast wouldn't let you fight on the same level of skill as someone like Garou just to mock him.

Bro cooked the whole feast for us.
 
But Saitama learning ESP sounds kinda sick. I honestly am not sure if he can do it though since it seems like an inherited trait. If he could do it I feel like he would, since he seems to think psychic powers would be fun to use.

In the webcomic, you can learn it to the limited degree and also unlock it through brain surgery. Saitama can no doubt do it especially given that his copy ability is greater than Garou's

I forgot about that.

Though I wouldn't equate those two. Garou effectively "becomes" the person he's copying. He doesn't just learn their powers. Saitama can't just copy someone entirely including their physical stats. But just about anything they can do (in the OPM verse anyways), he can learn.

Makes me wonder what a "motivated" Saitama will look like.

I hope we get to see that eventually. I am a bit worried we won't really see Saitama "happy" based on the Garou fight. Like. there's no way God isn't as much of a monster as Garou is so I feel he would just end up making Saitama bloodlusted again.
