One-Punch Man speed revision.

Boros's Meteoric Burst must give him significant speed amplification, he'd somehow surprised Saitama (Manga versio) with his movement that's become quicker, and after that he himself claim that his speed passed his body limit (Manga versio )and he'd better end this fight sooner than later.


Next Saitama's speed upgrade from At least Relativistic to At least Relativistic +, likely higher, due to Murata's statement, which is:

Murata: Saitama still beat him with a casual stone throw though. In Saitama's eyes rocks at sub-light speed is nothing, it's like a bad joke.
T/N: The Japanese used here is õ║£ÕàëÚǃ, can mean sub-light or near lightspeed. Murata says Geryuganshoop being the greatest psychic in the universe in a joking manner.
So there absolutely no reason to keep Saitama speed at Relativistic while it's in lower half of Speed of Light percentage.

TL;DR Add speed amp in Boros profile and upgrade Saitama speed from At least Relativistic to At least Relativistic +
 
I find It odd that near the speed of Light wasn't Rel plus to be honest

I don't think Saitama was surprised because of Boros' speed.
Then what surprised him? This is his face BEFORE he getting hit so he can't be surprised about his strength amp.

It seems more like Saitama was surprised that Boros still had all this power remaining despite seemingly being defeated to me. We know Boros's speed isn't nearly on par with Saitama's.

Regardless I am neutral to whether or not a + gets added.

The manga is more canon than the webcomic.

Do you think 5-A Boros has a chance of getting accepted?
 
>The manga is more canon than the webcomic.

Huh, it's actually first time i hear that. I mean manga is more detailed, but overall they both similarly canon.
 
CalamityFist said:

Probably not. IIRC the 5-A Boros calc got rejected.
 
Here's a manga sca. That and the fact that Boros looks evidently much stronger and faster, and from the databook Meteoric Burst is described as He turns his energy inside his body into driving force, whose super speed transcends limits'' AND that Boros wouldn't use this life-draining technique unless it gave a significant boost, it's clear that, well, it gives a significant boost to power and speed. Statistics Amplification should be fine.

Doing the speed scaling from Geryuganshoop;

Geryuganshoop's attacks << Lord Boros (unsealed) <<< Lord Boros (Meteoric Burst) < Saitama (Casual) <<< Saitama (Serious)

Someone this far above the person he scales from, who sits there because of a safe lowball (iirc), should undeniably be 5x the original feat. He blitzes people who are vastly superior to the feat. Relavistic+ should be fine imo.

tl;dr I agree with the op

No. The printed version of the OPM manga is the highest canon. Webcomic doesn't even come close in canonicity. The webcomic is basically just a rough draft of the manga.
 
Nah. Just read the comments of the blog.

I certainly disagree with this statement. Or OPM anime should have highest canon because it's on Blue-Ray. I mean it doesn't matter if it's not printed version, or you just bluntly disagree with the author just stating this.

And aside from arguing about how canon webcomic. In both version Saitama was surprised exactly the same way:

Manga - http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vVFXMgKuH...tgeIEXe0Yfrl3JpQ-r_jL8jL3gCHM/s0/0036-007.png

Webcomic - https://s1.********.org/data/5d90893bb51268bfa4a240601d2ed9e0/x3.jpg

So i didn't see where your growing hair reason coming from.

The web-comic is essentially the source material. How does the manga have more canonicity..?

That used to be the case. The webcomic hasn't been updated for over a year now and I'm pretty sure it's discontinued. ONE doesn't even do the webcomic anymore, instead he does rough drafts for Murata (which aren't apart of the webcomic) and Murata takes the rough drafts and redraws them into the manga. The manga is definitely the highest canon. For example, the manga and webcomic have lots of differences that appear later on throughout the series. For instance, the tournament arc never happened in the webcomic at all, and characters like Gouketsu, Elder Centipede, Suiryu, etc. don't even exist in the webcomic. Yet are we just going to pretend like these characters and an entire arc are non canon? No, the manga used to follow the webcomic exactly and made very little differences, and did so very rarely. But that is no longer the case, the manga has major differences from the webcomic, and the MA raid arc has been confirmed to be very different from the MA raid arc in the webcomic. Even Orochi (wo is a major character in the current arc) doesn't exist in the webcomic, yet we still consider him to be canon. The manga is absolutely the highest canon.
 
You guys are saying the webcomic is more canon than the manga right? Then I guess we should downgrade Boros because the moonjump never happened in the webcomic so the moon jump is non canon. And the moon jump is why Boros is 6-A, and the CSRC calc comes from the manga, the webcomic CSRC was no where near that powerful, and Boros didn't even say that it would destroy the surface in the webcomic IIRC.

Do guys see how freaking ridiculous it is to say that the webcomic is more canon than the manga?

Nearly all of the stats for the OPM characters in this wiki comes from the manga, not the webcomic.
 
No, I'm saying they are both similary canon, webcomic and manga. If something in manga and this never appeared in webcomic it's still canon, because it's for sure approved by ONE. Manga just supplement webcomic but not change already existing things. There just no point in redrawing webcomic to add tournament arc and Orochi.

I can't imagine Murata says to ONE his work now is nonfactor in OPM verse.

Anyway this is not the point here. I just provide 2 page, one from manga and one from webcomic and both of them similar. So why would Saitama care about Boros hair if there no change with them in webcomic at all? Isn't it's obvious he's surprised not about his overall appearance but difference in his ability?

Btw it was never be a problem to bring something from webcomic as your argument in vsthreads.
 
"I can't imagine Murata says to ONE his work now is nonfactor in OPM verse"

What the **** are you talking about? All the writing done in OPM in both the webcomic and the manga is done by ONE, none of the writing is done by Murata.
 
And by the way, I was just joking when I said Saitama was surprised by Boros' hair.

Clearly Saitama was surprised because of something else.

And two separate pieces of work for a single series can't both be at the same level of canonicity, when they have very different writing/plot that opposes each other. That makes zero sense.

The manga is far more canon than the webcomic, the webcomic is literally discontinued now, and ONE continues to do all the writing for OPM by doing the rough drafts while Murata redraws them.
 
>What the **** are you talking about? All the writing done in OPM in both the webcomic and the manga is done by ONE, none of the writing is done by Murata.

Can you explain himself then, if both webcomic and manga was all written by ONE then why did you said manga more canon? Can you just link me something that be in webcomic and never appear in manga version?

>Clearly Saitama was surprised because of something else.

Well i just point on what's most likely surprised Saitama. And that's one of the argument of Boros's speed amp with Meteoric Burst.

> the webcomic is literally discontinued now

Any official news about it? I didn't hear anything about this.

>And two separate pieces of work for a single series can't both be at the same level of canonicity, when they have very different writing/plot that opposes each other. That makes zero sense.

The heck? Different plot opposed each other, like what? They're not separate, webcomic is basicaly framework for manga, which is just have better visualisation.

Edit: I add additional pictures from Manga.
 
Bump.

Isn't there already enough evidence to add Speed/Strength amplification with Meteoric Burst in Boros profile and change Saitama's speed?
 
we actually cant do this cause Naruto characters were in a similar position. We wanted to add a plus to SOSP Naruto because his rel feat is in a weaker form.
 
It's just go against basic logic isn't it? You can't be near light speed if you less than half of it, i'm wrong here?
 
Since Murata said Geryuganshoop is sub-light speed, does that mean Awakened Cockroach's FTL reactions are less of an outlier?
 
Awakened Cockroach doesn't claim to have FTL reactions. He claims he can aimdodge FTL stuff through sensing when movement is coming. If it was for reactions though it'd be considered a hyperbole.

Also no it wouldn't since nothing suggests Awakened Cockroach scales to Geryuganshoop.
