i mean if molting is the only thing implying that he got stronger... molting being a biological process gotten from real life

Genos is only threat level demon at this time in the story and EC is 7-B... And Genos isn't even able to harm EC normally
Or you know, it doesn't mean it's an accurate representation of real life? Because this is fiction?
- 435
- 266
why not, do we assume everything works completly diffrent in fiction, cars, phones or physics
- 25,119

No, unless it's clearly contradicted, like here. Clearly, EC's molting is different from real life insects as shown. Like if you wanna argue something like this, I guess Garou shouldn't be able to turn from a human to a monster because humans clearly don't turn into monsters when placed in near death.

no that's a false equivalence, garou's monster transformation is something established as completly diffrent from real life, obviously EC isn't a real life creature but that doesn't mean that aspects of him doesn't work akin to real life processes. this honestly a pretty mute point to argue anyway doesn't really matter
- 25,119
- 27,309
And what makes you say that? What makes you think that EC's molting is exactly like real life when we are shown that it's not?

That's not at all what I meant, I was saying he wouldn't be referring to their power because they're dead and not the ones who are subservient.
He reflected an attack from Rover before hand and fought against him, yet he instantly decided to use his Awakened Form when faced with the prospect of fighting EC.
Garou was stronger when he fought Bang. Bomb even remarks on the difference sheerly due to the fact that he's able to now fight on par with Bang. So Awakened Bang >> Bomb.
Also, Darkshine shattered the entire rib cage of a stronger version of Garou than the one that fought Rover, yet this same Garou was fighting on par with Awakened Bang.
They say they can't defeat him right after, so it's obvious he's way stronger.
Genos was only effective on the interior. Everyone knew it was pretty much a useless gesture, if not suicide.
Rover wasn't injured, and Bang was only marginally "amped" by Fubuki reinforcing his body.
Bang was willing to put his life on the line in his Awakened Form to fight Post-Molt EC. So it's a decently large amp.
It's not like Centipedes in real life are kilometres long, either.

Wait is that actually a thing?

im arguing durability here and bang never fought against him alone they did the combo
of course he would have to use it since EC was able to regenerate from their previous combo which they could not perform again
he's weakend

Doesn't make a difference what you're arguing, Bang just never decides to do it against Rover so your point is irrelevant. You also seem to be oscillating between Rover's durability and him outright scaling above Gouketsu/post-Molt EC.
Bomb was there with EC.
They say continuously that fighting it is suicide. There's no indication that they're referring to its molting ability. And even if they were, you haven't got a shred of proof for Rover scaling above post-molt EC. It's speculation, at this point.
They thought it was weak (from a few pages of blasting, I assume) and that they could take it out. They were wrong.

i agree that he doesn't scale to EC now but rover was weakend tho
bomb states it. Gouketsu is more up for debate though
also this panel to support your point where bomb says that Bang might aswell give up being a hero if there are more EC-level opponents

nah he would be weakend due to getting knocked out cold by saitama don't think there's any moment where bomb's proven wrong

What did you guys think Murata meant when he said he'd make Saitama Vs AG more out there (forgot what he said exactly) compared to Saitama Vs Boros?
Taking it at face value it could mean that AG just does 5-B feats or whatever but what if instead he did something like Phoenix Man Vs CE where the fight looked much better but instead there was less feats like CE's beam being taken away.
I imagine that table flip will be made to look more spectacular than the base lift but apart from that I don't see anything that's to definitive as proof it will give us lots of feats. Saitama Vs Boros only occured on the ship so what if Murata meant that Saitama and AG would simply have the planet as their battle ground (FTL Saitama, AG and Boros?)? Then we would only get High 6-A stuff at the very most since the fight takes place on the surface.

Likely just a greater setting. The original fight already displays AG's fight as on a greater scale than Boros'
- 25,119
- 27,309
Also I'm pretty sure tableflip could yield tier 5 if we assume Saitama's gonna flip a continent or something
- 25,119
- 27,309
Eh I doubt so, the tableflip is him flipping a large mass of land with AG on it, AG never destroys it.

AG's gonna use whirlwind on the moon smh

It's possible that AG's big feat is like shaking the Planet with his strikes, which can sound more impressive than Orochi's Core stuff to people who don't use calcs

you can make the technical argument that psykos doesn't know about post-molt EC who is the one that got the 7-A statment
- 19,543
- 17,183
If Orochi knows about post-molt EC, then Psykos definitely would. Orochi compared EC to Gouketsu in strength speaking about post-most EC.
- 435
- 266
why would orochi know about post molt EC
- 19,543
- 17,183
He implied that EC's strength is on par with Gouketsu's.

nah that's genos i think

Actually both of them did it.
