Saitama's Ability Revision : Acausality Type 1

[Sisyphusx]

Saitama should get acausality type 1 because of this incident :

"Type 1: Time Paradox Immunity: Characters with this type of Acausality are rendered immune to changes in the past and standard temporal paradoxes"

As shown above, Saitama went back in time and changes the future
The timeline changed at the second saitama punches garou, as there will be no future like we saw and hence there should be no future saitama that went back in time to punch garou as the incidents leading to that never even happened.

But we can clearly see that even after this there's no change in saitama and he didn't got affected by the change in past and his timeline in any ways.

He further merged with himself but merging doesn't mean disappearing as both saitama still exist but as a same entity and that situation is not even being affected by change in past or timeline

Doesn't he not remember it because of the time travel? that's pretty clearly being affected

No, he forgot it after he merged with his past self not because of the change in timeline or time travel

 

[Axxtentacle]

He merged with his past self due to the time travel, that's being affected by time travel

 

[Sisyphusx]

He merged with his past self due to the time travel, that's being affected by time travel

The point is it didn't happened because of "changes in the past"

Genos says "A new you seperated from the original you...merged with the you of this timeline...The timing of the separation and merging may be a clue to the timing of when the parallel world split off"

as per his theory both saitama could had existed at the same time till the parallel worlds were connected after the split off the two same entity of different timeline wasn't able to be seperated and merged with themselves
The merging happens because of this
And not because of changes in the past that certainly what it needs to qualify for acausality type 1

"Type 1: Time Paradox Immunity: Characters with this type of Acausality are rendered immune to changes in the past and standard temporal paradoxes"

 

[Quangotjokes]

Tbh it's debatable, some will say he forgot what happened. But he didn't forget because those events never actually happened.

 

[Quangotjokes]

It's possible he would get type 1 since the core remained unchanged. The saitama who remained in the future may still be there unchanged.

 

[Axxtentacle]

The paradox is Saitama coming from a future that didn't happen, and because of such, he doesn't remember it. He was affected by the changes.

The saitama coming from future remembered that, he only forgot it after he merged with his other self

 

[InfiniteDay]

I agree with Ax's points on this, Saitama forgot this happened because of the time travel shenanigans/it never happening. If Saitama did have Type 1, past Saitama would remember when he merged with future Saitama, because Saitama would be immune to the time paradox that occurs.

Future Saitama is a non-issue because he's literally the one that time-traveled in the first place and fought Garou, so of course he would remember what happens.

 

[Sisyphusx]

He forgets the incident not because of time travel but cause of merging

Saitama did have Type 1, past Saitama would remember when he merged with future Saitama, because Saitama would be immune to the time paradox that occurs.

Why and how would past saitama remember that?
There's 1 saitama who remembered that (future version) and one who didn't knew about that (past version) when the timelines split off both saitama merged with each other, there existence/memory coincided and as a result the merged version forgot the future incident.
How y'all think that the memory loss is because of time travel

 

[Axxtentacle]

The saitama coming from future remembered that, he only forgot it after he merged with his other self

And he merged with his other self because of the time travel. He was affected by it.

If he was unaffected by the paradox caused by the time travel, he wouldn't have been merged with his other self. He would've just time travelled and existed there with the past Saitama.

immune to changes in the past and standard temporal paradoxes, but remain just as vulnerable in the present

He didn't merged because of time travel but he merged when the parallel worlds split off tho none of them disappears but exist as a same entity

its fine if the "future saitama existing with past saitama as seperate beings at the same time" is necessary for the ability but AIS it shouldn't be concluded by "it happened because of time travel"

The worlds merged together because of the time travel, which caused Saitama to merge with his past self.

He was affected by the time travel, and wasn't immune to the paradox. He doesn't get Acausality type 1.

 

[Sisyphusx]

He was affected by the time travel

Saying it like "by seperation and merging of two parallel timelines" would be more accurate

wasn't immune to the paradox. He doesn't get Acausality type 1.

yea I understand your point

 

[Maverick_Zero_X]

He was affected by the time travel ergo he isn’t acausal

 

[Axxtentacle]

Saying it like "by seperation and merging of two parallel timelines" would be more accurate

Which is a result of the time travel technique he used.
