ziller, you just have to put in your mind that tatsumaki is not a random character,
She is pretty random in comparison to the universe. Saitama is Saitama and is the one who summoned god to the world so he gets a pass, and Blast is also part of a team (that’s not even on earth) that’s fighting god so they also have universal significance, Boros is the one dominating the entire universe, and Cosmic Garou is literally the fist of god and before becoming an avatar he even nearly broke whatever was keeping god sealed
and then there’s tatsumaki, who is just
a strong hero from
a planet in the universe, who doesn’t really have any narrative importance beyond earth and the hero association.
I mean she was chosen by God as a potential vessel, but so was Blast back when he was literally elder centipede level and not even the 4-A beast he was in the MA arc
she’s like the 2nd most important on earth, but in terms of the entire universe she’s just kinda random.
she is just built to better and you have to accept it.
She scales very directly below Garou and Boros in the webcomic. She is not really built to be better, she’s built to be weaker than Geryuganshoop tbh
she is lore-wise stronger, even blast’s team seems to be impressed by earthlings’ potential, you can just talk as if earth is a random planet
The earthlings in question that impressed them were Extreme Fa Jin Garou and literally ******* Saitama, the blast team absolutely did not give a **** about Tatsumaki’s power. In fact, the extreme fa jin threatened God’s seal, while the continent slice didn’t get acknowledged at all, so that’s pretty telling by itself.
Also what do you mean “lore wise”? Lore wise Boros is the guy who has “rivaling abilities” to Saitama
Tatsumaki absolutely has no narrative reason to be on Boros’ level in the slightest. Boros’ narrative implied power is the one thing that you’re never wanking her anywhere near.
and theres like, 4-5 earthlings who murders boros?
you can’t just talk as if he faced a planet as strong before, even his soldiers implied that (at least on anime…)
The only earthling that murders Boros is Saitama. That was kinda the whole point of having Saitama vs Boros being a secret battle with none of the S class participating, along with the point of the prophecy being that only Saitama (or Blast) was able to give Boros a decent fight.
Also if we’re going with anime only stuff then hooray, 5-B Boros, along with a statement that Saitama was “kind of clobbered”
by meteoric burst, and maybe even black hole level Geryuganshoop, and also star level csrc
boros would’ve died much earlier if he had encountered the earth back then in his journey.
Earth is one of the many many quintillions of planets in the universe, and you’re saying that Tatsumaki just happens to be stronger than the strongest fighters from all the rest of those planets, despite her having no real cosmic importance
this is just one of those things where the writer doesn’t flat out say “he’s stronger” because he knows that the reader is probably smart enough to come the conclusion that the prophecy that says there is only one guy in the universe who can give you a good fight to a guy who can defeat basically everyone else in the universe would be enough to convince them that he’s stronger than someone who is essentially just
random
