Subreddit thinks current Garou is Awakened Garou. How well does that hold up?
Either he is Awakened, which I think is likely the case due to recent chapter events and him about to fight Saitama, or it's Saitama who will awaken him. But if Garou transforms again against Saitama, that also wouldn't necessarily be his Awakened state by default, seeing as he transforms multiple times against Saitama in the webcomic. We'll see though. For now I'm just gonna go with the thought that this is Awakened Garou in the manga, as disappointing as the design is.
 
Isn't burst speed of S-class rated higher than Iaian in databook?
Scan?

Also I've stated before. The MHS value Iaian scales to comes from a far superior version of Genos than BoS Genos. To scale an early Genos to that is nonsensical and creates circular scaling.
 
Personally doubt it. I think he is just gonna evolve again. If this really is Awakened Garou then consider me mildly disappointed.
nah it's Awakened Garou, and here is my foolproof reasoning

Garou was asleep when he was fighting at first, and then he woke up at the end of his fight with Bang

Be astounded by my impeccable argument
 
I see that Garou's design is one of the main issues among the ones that currently disliked his arc on the manga

My question is: what's so wrong about it ? Give me arguments🗿
The form by itself evokes zero feelings in me. Before it was cracked I could mistake him for an isekai protag with a darkness affinity berserk form or something and after it's cracked he looks like a controlled form of the berserk form. With the context of the manga, my view of it lessens quite a bit and with WC context the design almost becomes an eyesore.
 
I think the design is good, but Murata and ONE missed the chance for some body horror that the webcomic had (and couldn't pull off very well).

It wasn't even armour until after his evolution stagnated.
 
Doesn't that only scale to Iaian's combat speed? Scaling Melzalgald's speed above demon levels is incorrect, to begin with. Or that's what I am told. Not to mention, Iaian was barely able to dodge attacks from both casual Melzalgald and Homeless Emperor. Besides that, in both situations attacks had considerable distance until they reached Iaian. While I don't think the feats should be ignored, scaling BoS Genos above Iaian is far more accurate than scaling Iaian to above a stronger version of Genos.
 
I think it is better if we use case-by-case analysis. HA seems to tend to underestimate S-class. I heavily doubt that they have seen the actual limit of S-class before. But what they have seen seems to be enough to put them above Iaian

Btw, there is a statement from PPP which states that he is just an average human compared to S-class. Wouldn't that scale speed as well?
 
In the manga version Garou will actually break Saitama's arm after he gets mad because Saitama is just playing with him.
 
I don’t like Garou’s design because if you replaced his eyes with one big eye, you could easily say he’s just Boros’ hidden, real, ultimate form. He doesn’t look like a monster, he looks like an alien. an alien we’ve already seen. I wanted something more unique to Garou. Like the webcomic.

Also Amai didn’t even crack that boat with a punch. Lol.

Full Power Tatsumaki’s match up against Garou or Boros will forever remain unknown.

Ok, back to Elden Ring, bye.
 
Shouldn't Genos scale to Iaian anyway? PPP and Iaian could react to Melz' attacks with difficulty.

We don't have evidence of that. And again, Iaian scales supposedly scales to a far superior version of Genos' speed.
 
How's there no evidence? PPP did react to Melz, and to Bang blitzing Melz.
 
I mean Genos scaling to Iaian. Isn't the PPP in the Melz fight different than the one in the DSK fight?

Plus it doesn't answer how it's logical we should BoS Genos to Post Superfight Genos.

Not only that, but Melzalgald blitzes Sky King, a DSK level monster..
