STRONGEST One-Punch Man Discussion Thread!

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"

I not sure about that weakness as we don’t know if he doesn’t or does have the powers of future Saitama as all happened in one chapter too.

In terms of art and choreography, I definitely think the manga excels. But even after all that, I still prefer the webcomic Garou v Saitama. It was better thematically when it was just Garou vs Saitama without the interference from God, and the way in which Saitama broke Garou's philosophy with words just resonated with me more than what happened here. I do enjoy the way that this battle made Saitama want to be a better hero, giving Saitama actual character development for the first time, so that's an improvement over the webcomic in terms of character. Maybe other people like bigger scales, but I've always been fine with smaller stakes as long as the story and characters are addressed.

If it were up to me, I'd have had Garou just fully awaken and evolve after defeating Platinum Sperm, then basically everything that happened in the webcomic, with Garou effortlessly defeating all the S-class heroes. Maybe give a fake-out death for Genos to enrage Saitama and give him the same character development in the manga, then defeat Garou the way he did in the webcomic.
 
You guys are so weird. Keys are made for anything that happens within the canon of a verse. Regardless of there are time traveling, timeline erasing shit.

There’s a reason we have profiles for the Sonic 06 cast regardless of the fact that time line was erased.

It is re-written chapters that get no keys.
 
I ain’t reading anything here, too much, too little time.

That said, Tatsumaki back on top of the food chain.* 💪🗿👍

*Outside of Saitama, King, Blast, Blast’s friends, God and Manako.
 
Hope to god next chapter reveals Saitama regained his memories

Because if not.....this is on the same level as Moro Arc Goku seemingly finally realizing he needs to mature with Merus death to one chapter later completely ignoring that and going "Lemme fight him as an earthling"

It means he won't learn from the mistake he made with toying with garou and what happened when he didn't finish him off ( not necessarily kill but defeat him ) before god high fived him and killed everyone he goes back to just not giving a **** with his enemies which could easily lead to this BS again

yes, but the Io thing still had the MFTL and higher LS feat, which past Saitama wouldn't get most likely

Er...why? Saitama didn't start evolving until Garou begun copying his powers at the very end though. In that chapter he only said he was finally going all out.

I also don't see any evidence that just because he lost his memories meant he lost his power considering there's still physical evidence in the form of Genos' heart that shows the events of that timeline still have a tangible presence. TBH, I would say there's not enough evidence to say either way.

He still scale to 4-A
 
Guys, there is one way to find out about if Post-Time Reverse Saitama can scale to the evolution vs Garou;

Waiting for the next chapter 😅
 
Alright, so a summary of this chapter's noteworthy feats and statements:

Saitama effortlessly copies Garou's God Slayer Fist movements.

Saitama's reactive evolution allowed him to grow strong enough to begin easily stomping Garou who was equal to himself seconds prior.

Saitama performs a large planet level feat by sneezing.

Garou confirms that he can teleport to anything within his vision. Conidering that he could see the Earth all the way from Jupiter, and an inconceivably weaker Garou can casually see Tareo through a helicopter window from dozens of miles away, that's pretty extreme range. Btw Garou and Saitama didn't fly to the Earth. Garou used his enhanced vision to see it from Jupiter and just teleported to it. Saitama followed through the portal by farting.

Garou's radiation didn't incapacitate Tareo after all, it outright killed him in seconds from over a hundred feet away.

Garou knows a way to reverse time, but hasn't been able to use it.

Garou says that Saitama can use God's power without receiving it from him.

Saitama hears God's telepathy, even though we can presume God did not necessarily want him to.

God turns Garou into salt.

Saitama reverses time via some weird illogical fictional quantum mechanics nonsense, after briefly observing Garou's stance and focusing.

Saitama one-shot's CF Garou with most likely a Normal Punch, although that CF Garou had tanked a Normal Punch and matched a Consecutive Normal Punch's.

Genos is 4-A.

He didn’t merge, the particles just eradicated them selves. I think murata half assed the concept to have one saitama, in reality, there would be no saitama. Erased from existence.

it was still ONE that did it. im gonna be hella annoying about it until people stop misplacing their criticisms
 
Isnt saitamas growth here mainly just power though? Garous replicating works based on energy and techniques. Im not sure if speed would get nulled, but wed at least know saitamas evolution can allow him to do that.
 
he merged into 1, please don't lower saitama's scaling just because he forgot, he joined it's enough to get his 4A
