Why is Saitama's fight not being shown? Was it like this in the ONE comic? It's the first guy who can take a punch from him and I can't see what's happening :bang:.

I don't think he has thrown a punch yet.

Obviously the reasonable explanation is that the alien must've punched Saitama hard enough to blow his own arm up.

e: I guess I should spoiler speculation about the newest chapter.

It was just the uploader replacing it with an edited version; batoto replaces the numbers in the url when doing so and breaks any old links in the process.

I just read the first four chapters.

Saitama having his dream where the underground creatures actually pose a challenge only to have it come true when he wakes up and have it end in the usual way.

It seems like he possibly wants to let the guy get the fight he's been looking for, maybe because he empathizes with the desire to have an opponent who can challenge you. Looks like he's getting tired of playing along, though.

I'd think there is also the layer that Saitama is contemplating the reality that not only can no being on Earth match him but the entire galaxy.

Well, there's a constant expression of casual boredom and disinterest on Saitama's face for the entire chapter until something like shock or surprise at getting kicked in the back on page 16.

I can't decide if Saitama got annoyed after that point because of the nature of the attack or its complete lack of effect. I suspect it's the former.

I can't wait for him to punch Boros so hard it literally zooms in so show all of his cells being destroyed by the force of it, and then sigh depressingly.

Nah, Saitama doesn't really strike me as the sort to care about "honorable" fighting. If it got him an actual challenge I think he'd let anything fly.

vv Pretty much. Even outside of fighting, Saitama was the kinda guy who wanted Genos to shorten his life story to 10 words or less. He's not the talky type.

It's probably more like Saitama just really wants a good fight without all the exposition by this dumbass boss. Basically literally like his dream where it's just punches and punches.

I would think he would be happy that he hasn't one shot this guy yet but I can't blame him for being annoyed.

✋😢Life's just better with Ominous Gloves🤗🧤
He may also recognize the villain as his dark mirror. An ubermensch who doesn't care about anybody, and just goes looking for a fun fight. Saitama's not a great dude, but he has to feel a little bad that an entire city was killed for such incredibly selfish reasons - and for reasons that are so sympathetic to him.

Alternately, motherfucker talks too much.
