The fact that Saitama later told Genos that Boros was likley the strongest being he had ever faced means that he should scale.

Assuming the scaling still works
Shouldn't Boros scale to Orochi's speed ?

Saitama. Did. Not. Even. Realize. Tatsumaki. Was. Attacking. Him.
He. Was. Not. Fighting. Her.
That statement does not include her, this has been explained in every prior discussion about it.

Considering both are assumptions, mine is a more faithful assumption to the statement.
Wanting to fit the statement to our current ratings instead of treating the statement itself as it should, doesn't seem correct to me.
- 15,476

The “planet’s surface” interpretation isn’t an assumption. It’s directly stated.
- 1,984

If he hasn't even realized that Tatsumaki is attacking him is because her power doesn't even make him concerned about her. If anything, this just proves that Tatsumaki's lack of power compared to someone like MB Boros.
Do you really think that if MB Boros attacked Saitama without him realizing, Saitama wouldn't have at least sensed that someone has attacked him?

That's even more mental gymnastics. He literally claims the attack will destroy the planet's surface. I don't see how it's Saitama's dura + erasing the earth surface. Plus. Even using the standard calc, 186 Petatons would easily kill 66 Petatons. Hell, with our current calc. 11 exatons would easily kill 66 Petatons.
It's simply CSRC > what Boros thinks Saitama's dura is lmao.
For a guy who loves talking about Boros constantly over and over you seem to be living under a rock when it come to this topic. We've been having this thread for months now and Boros scaling to Orochi will get removed.
We're still finding how to get the durability for Boros' ship. It either lands in High 6-C or High 6-A. IDK the calc group consensus.
So far the general consensus is to scale Boros' ship to Saitama's moon crater, which is 66 PetatonsPetatons, or a much lower level of High 6-S

I was talking about the databook statements, because Emirp said that they still fit with manga's statement.
- 15,476
- 22,585
Because they do. Destroying a planet’s surface counts as destroying the planet.

That’s a complete assumption on your part and just reaching to make the scaling work. Saitama said Boros was the strongest person he’d ever fought.
He literally did not fight Tatsumaki. He wasn’t aware that she was doing anything to him. He would not be thinking of her when he made that statement to Genos, period.

It's just logic. I'm treating the "destruction of Earth" statement and trying to fit the manga's "surface destruction" in it. And it really fits. We have TWO clear statements on the first side, and ONE unclear statement on the second side (because it also involves Saitama, not only the surface). Knowing that, which interpretation should take priority? I believe the Earth destroying interpretation should be the one.
What you are doing is putting the value an absolute minimum, when it's really unknown, because Saitama massively scales above 66 Petatons. I'm just making everything fit, whereas you are ignoring the databook statement because "manga takes priority". If there's an argument that the three stataments can be valid, then we should at least regard that one. A "possibly" works good.
Under a rock? I'm literally asking in an ironic way why the downgrade is. I am against the removal of their scaling for several reasons that no one has properly countered. And no, I don't love talking about Boros, he's not even my favourite character. It's just that the amount of hate and unjustified downgrades he gets on this thread is astonishing.

If Boros never used CSRC, how would he know the extent of the damage?
- 1,984
- 1,235
Because she was too weak, maybe? That's my point.
Yeah, if Saitama had sensed Tatsumaki's strength, he would definitely have thought: I'm not even gonna talk Genos about this girl that was stronger than Boros because I didn't actually fight her but rather she attacked me.

But hey, I'm not even going to try to argue 5-B anymore. You'll just hate on me for trying to come up with valid reasonings, just because "Boros fans are annoying, they just want to scale Boros to Garou" (Garou is already unreachable to him btw).
- 15,450
- 15,867
Too weak compared to Saitama, yes. Everyone in the verse is too weak compared to Saitama, in case you didn’t get the memo. Doesn’t change the fact that he objectively did not fight her, so Boros maybe being the strongest person he’s ever fought doesn’t put him above Tatsumaki.
Yes, thank you for agreeing that he didn’t sense her power, didn’t realize she was attacking him and wouldn’t be including her.

"What’s this feeling? It’s as if my clothes are pulling itself tightly around me. Ow! My hair got stuck in it. Ouch! If it keeps on pulling like this my hair roots will—! Just wait a sec. Guess I need to just stand horizontally like this?"

Isn't it obvious?
Saitama (who didn't have time to break the limiter) didn't feel the frightened Tatsumaki at all, as weakly as possible for him, he didn't even realize that it was an attack. He would never call it "strong" if he didn't even realize it was an attack.
Boros attacked him (Saitama had already broken the limiter). He said "You are strong". And he believed that this was a normal fight, estimating his strength. And in the end he said that this is his strongest enemy.
Boros is much stronger than Tatsumaki. Stop being angry about it.

You have to be either a fan of Tatsumaki or a hater of Boros to deny it.

Casual Tatsumaki Vs Casual released Boros energy blasts.
- 15,450
- 15,867
Proving that, like I said, Saitama is objectively not fighting Tatsumaki or even realizing that she’s the one causing that, so his statement of Boros maybe being the strongest he’s ever fought does not include her.
You know an argument is good when they have to resort to appeal to motive.

“Boros is superior to a casual Tatsumaki”
It’s over. While we’re at it we should consider Garou comparable to Saitama’s full power because he matched his casual punches.

Ah yes, I believe that’s a checks notes Elixer Psykos level feat.

Could have sworn I said casual Released Boros lol these mental gymnastics
- 15,476
- 22,585
Proof Boros was casual there? Why would he hold back on Saitama after he previously punched his arm off?
- 7,353
- 3,748
Boros could regen his arm back at any point, and did so that's not really proof he was going all out.
Boros was definitely holding back or else he'd have put all his energy in the blast he shot at Saitama
- 15,476
- 22,585
Idk about you but if someone took my arm off with one punch I'd take them pretty seriously.
By this logic Boros was basically holding back the entire fight. The only attack that uses every ounce of his energy is the CSRC.

He/Him- 674
- 385
Tatsumaki also holds back a lot so the comparison is meaningless anyway (probably hence the "possibly" scaling for in training Saitama).
- 15,476
- 22,585
So, what's next?
- 7,353
- 3,748
Boros isn't Mav, also pretty sure Boros was trying to outlast Saitama because he knew he could regen while causing more and more damage to Saitama.
I mean he did have two trump cards he was holding onto to. But I'm just referring to his energy blasts.

He/Him- 674

That's not even a fair comparison tbh. Tatsumaki split Psykorichi in half while holding back which is almost as impressive as Boros' entire energy in a last resort form.
- 1,984
- 1,235
He still felt the power, he doesn't need to know whose power it is. And, he treated it like a joke, while he thought of MB Boros power of something way bigger. But hey let's end this for today. Maybe we can discuss it in a future CRT or something.
- 15,476
- 22,585
Boros tried to vaporize Saitama's skeleton with his energy, he wasn't purely trying to win via war of attrition.
'K. While it's true he didn't immediately pull out his final form there's really nothing suggesting he wasn't using the full power of his Released state on Saitama.
- 1,984
- 1,235
Yeah, there's no way you can compare Released Boros and casual Tatsumaki. That was a stretch.
Especially since Tatsumaki's full power is much above what she was doing there.

I know you like him, no need to act like everyone else.
Also, why can't I discuss OPM-related content, or scale him above Tatsumaki if I have interesting reasonings? Why is freedom of speech trying to be restricted so much?
If you're tired of reading about Boros, just ignore it or bring up another topic. I will be more than happy to debate with you.
- 7,353

He said any small fry would be vaporized, he knows Saitama isn't a small fry. He uses that as a way to land a clean hit. Hence why he later thinks he damaged Saitama. "That one definitely connected, it's obvious who's going to win"
Um the fact that he still had vast amounts of energy still remaining. He wasn't pulling his punches and kicks but he definitely could have spammed more powerful blasts if he wanted to.
