I think I read somewhere that the Christian God's actual name is supposed to have the first two letters capitalized. So, GOd, not just God. It is still worth noting that God is then a name and god is a type of being. Deity is sort of what you use when referring to another religions gods beside the one you worship yourself, if I recall correctly.

mabels big day posted:why dragon gotta be stronger than demon? seems kinda arbitrary. maybe it's just me but i'd imagine a demon would be scarier/stronger. I think the important part is that the Hero Association would have spent a good week figuring out the names for these levels and then about 2 minutes working out how to rank monsters into them

Child Emperor joked that a certain monster should be Wolf level instead of Tiger but I don't think it's a real level.

It is still worth noting that God is then a name and god is a type of being. Deity is sort of what you use when referring to another religions gods beside the one you worship yourself, if I recall correctly. The Judeo-Christian "God" is referred to as such because when there's really only one god anyway, is there really a need to differentiate them from anybody? The Jewish "YHWH" is derived from the passage in Exodus where God tells Moses "I am that I am." When Moses is asking what god he should say is backing him up when he stands before the pharaoh, he gets told "Tell them the god who is sent you," as in the god who is real verses the Egyptian gods who implicitly are not (real) and hold no power. Tangentially, "Allah" is simply the Arabic word for god and is used both by Muslims and Arabic-speaking Christians (and possibly Jews, not 100% sure). Serious post end. Back to watching dudes get chumped in one punch.

deadly_pudding posted:Can you elaborate why? An Ogre (Oni) is a variety of demon in Japan, and "deity" is just a synonym for "god". Oni are usually depicted these days as wearing tiger skins for clothing to show how swole they are, so an Oni would just logically be stronger than a tiger.

Also, just to chime in quickly, God level probably exists because, in Japanese mythology, gods aren't omnipotent, omniscient, benevolent beings and fighting/killing them is very much possible in their legends, but would be a herculean task. Also, it is interesting to think that Boros was a god level threat and, unless I'm misremembering, was just able to not get one hit by Saitama. They should invent a new level for a Saitama level threat. Probably called it "a You're Just Plain hosed" threat. It's not bad and I love the cover image for the album (assuming that is the cover image), but I think the TV edit is better, personally speaking.

That would require official acknowledgement of Saitama's strength, which would be bad.

Also, there's only one Saitama-level threat, and he's already named.

Saitama doesn't use "Serious Punch" until Boros uses his planet destroying laser attack. The result is that splash page where you see the clouds split over the entire hemisphere, and Boros' monologue as he lays dying. (It's the one that ends with him saying "Prophecies can't be trusted after all. You are way too strong.")

I've read articles to the effect that a lot of people who struggle with depression enjoy making others laugh and smile because it's something they struggle with. All Saitama wants is a worthy foe and Boros can't possibly deliver, but since Boros came all this way looking for a fight Saitama tries his best to at least make him happy.

That's why a ton of comedians are people who struggle with extreme depression.

You can't defeat with a punch, but with actually the power of friendship.

I'm a little confused. I was trying to get caught up on the manga and it seemed like the same scene played out twice and differently. It's the scene where Saitama is backstage during the martial arts tournament and meets the former senior of the guy he's impersonating. There is one version where he accidentally pisses him off and fights him and one versions where they have a nice chat. It's kind of weird. Normally, I chock stuff like this up to the fact that the reading order tends to get messed up with this comic because people put decimal places in the chapter numbers, but this is something different.

Murata remade that chapter. The later one is canon.

I got the feeling it was some kind of redo. I'm starting to read ONE now to get more of the story. I get the feeling the martial arts tournament isn't in one.

Bad Seafood posted:Saitama one-shotted Boros' armor which served as a power limiter. He could've just immediately punched him again and killed him but took pity on the guy's desire for a good fight and held back the entire time in an attempt to humor him.

Covok posted:Such a weird concept, but makes complete sense. It is an adaptation of a parallel running work. The chapters based on ONE's version are almost identical panel by panel. Murata's version just changed the design of a few enemies a little and added some side-stories(and this filler arc). Keep in mind the extra stuff is still written by ONE.

Covok posted:Such a weird concept, but makes complete sense. It is an adaptation of a parallel running work. Not very. There's an occasional extra thing in the Murata version but every part of the ONE version is adapted faithfully, it doesn't skip anything. In a way, the Murata version is just a bit of an expansion on what's already there (while looking super gorgeous.)

I've worked with people with it in the past and this is essentially bang on the money. It's not a universal truth, but the way I see it is if there's something missing that's essentially taken for granted, it takes people who don't have that to recognise its true value.
