I think Murata just doesn't want to have Saitama keep time travel as an ability, so he makes him forget
- 7,199
- 7,581
He probably didn't keep the strength, either.
It was the alternate timeline Saitama that punched Garou, which is why it said the fight took 0 punches to be finished, not that it makes sense but they just wanted to try sounding cool. Then he got assimilated into the present Saitama, who doesn't remember the past events, thus implying that it did never happen even from his perspective.
Basically, it's just an semi-retcon plot device.

I mean it's possible he doesn't recall it, but just makes an assumption Genos is dead, as he's holding his core that clearly has no power in it, which Saitama would prob think means Genos is dead
- 11,427
- 14,376
He might have seen his core lying around and just assumed he was killed while he returned from the Gamma ray Burst.

Saitaman needed to “die” not gonna lie. Dude grew to a point where his sneezes blew up Jupiter. So everything that happened with Garou just doesn’t exist anymore I guess.
Regardless, like I said, the translations didn’t change my opinion. This chapter is just wacky. I don’t like the ending.

Well he still has the power mimicry at least. Although it's not in-character for him to use it unfortunately.

Psykos mentioned time had stopped, and i imaginef he'd show some time manip feats.
(I really want Saitama to move in time stop while GOD monologues about his invincibility)

Maybe the "zero punches" means he only use casual punches to beat Garou in the past without any effort

We don’t even know if the powers that Future Saitama got is lost or not when he assimilate with present Saitama of the same timeline

I want him to punch through time stop like Wang Ling (you've probably never heard of that guy). But it's really cool he basically "fragments" time and bursts free from it to continue a fight that had been interrupted by stopping the time flow.

He/Him- 3,695

i mean if he doesn't remember how to do it, then it's effectively lost
- 5,300

That does depend on the future chapters though. We have to wait and see if he can rediscovered these abilities
- 16,968

i mean we can still let saitama with a ''up to 4-A with RE''
- 11,427

Garou pretty much had to tell Saitama he could copy that type of power for him to start using it consciously. If he went Serious in a fight he could start copying Martial arts like said by Garou, but as he believes his only power is strength he likely wouldn't try copying more outrageous shit.

to the fans of RE saitama, I have made a severe and continuous lapse in judgement.....
on the bright side, this means saitama has more of an actual set of abilities now, and flight with the serious fart. Also the translation still doesn't make whatever the **** that time travel bs was make any sense but whatever it's awesome and garou's awesome
I think the point of the fight is that the moment garou copied saitama's power, it was already growing exponentially by the nanosecond, so the very next moment he'd already be within the range of getting AP stomped again
can someone take that graph of saitama's exponential growth and "calc" it to see how much stronger he got exactly? seems like a pretty useful and blatant multiplier for his new peak power

the feat is low 2-C? , time/chance has been reversed and it's the entire time we literally watched events pass through saitama he didn't shift in time
- 7,199
- 7,581
Ok but if Garou received the full power God offered him, he would've lowkey rocked Saitama's shit for a little, until Saitama evolved beyond him anyways.

I think its causality manipulation because on paper there's nothing to dodge.

So do we wait for next chapter? Cause I feel like without any other info, you could straight up argue any feat that was performed by Saitama after the GRB is discounted, as we don't know if Saitama kept the power he gained

we should make at the very least a seperate key for vs Garou Saitama
- 7,199
- 7,581
Technically speaking, we should just give the past timeline Saitama a separate key, he has an explicitly much higher level of power than the new present one, enough to stomp him if they fought. Then he'd just keep the time reversal anyways.

He/Him- 3,695

Yeah a "Pre-Time Travel" key would prob fit

I keep thinking, if Saitama went back in the past and merged with his past self, then the evolution he had during the fight against the Garou didn't happen either, ishi

I dont think the serious punch squared feat can be discounted
- 5,300
- 2,002
Perhaps, but again, we have to see what the future chapters will tell as God is technically the boss that Saitama has to overcome eventually

I want to imagine a scenario where homelander tries to blackmail saitama by throwing him genoses core and getting serious punched.... but genos is like... thousands to millions of times stronger than homelander too...

But you also have to acknowledge something about the time travel. We kinda have to put in a weakness to say "Once Saitama time travels, he will quickly assimilate with his past self, losing any memories and power that happened after the point he time travelled to"
- 13,904

serious punch ^2 scales to past saitama since that was the first attack of the fight, and he hadn't been pushed past full power until immediately after said attack
so the 3-C saitama is still very much real
