So, Harvey, what became of the giant penny?

They actually let him keep it.
I'd like to think that off camera, C and B rank heroes are all starting to hang out with Licenseless Rider like A and S ranks hang out with Saitama.

So on all the talk about who Blast is, wasn't it mentioned at some point that Bang is Blast's (little?) brother? I can't remember when it might have been mentioned, or why I think it, but I could have sworn it came up. I remember it because of the pun progression on the names.
No concrete information on Blast has yet been provided in the Murata redraw.

In ONE's version the only thing we know is the reason why he's seemingly never deployed.

Superalloy Blackluster and Bang are pretty much the chillest of the S ranks we've seen so far.

Superalloy was actively trying to prevent clashes between other S ranks during the Boros arc, and Bang seems to be the only person who can get Tatsumaki to calm down and doesn't really mind people younger than him treating him without the respect he obviously deserves.

Nah, that sword is the living avatar of all the ancient weaponry has been relegated to the role of mere decorations. It has already given its speech about how it's time all the ancient and powerful implements of war avenged themselves upon a callous and prideful humanity that would make mere wall-hangings of them.

Nah, pretty sure you need a teenage ESPer with a flat emotional affect who is learning to open his heart to the experiences of other people in his life for that.

The "I became a <noun> with a threat level of <rank>!" "Threat Level: <lower rank>" joke is already one of my favorites, but I love that it not only claims to be a threat level that's pretty unimpressive compared to even the random one-offs we've seen, but it's actually an even lower level than that. This is great.

I watched disco balls glitter in the dark near the Brandenburg Gate.
All those moments will be lost in time, like crowds in rain.

Chapter 53. It'll feel like you're missing stuff but you aren't - it legitimately jumps right from Garou taking out Tanktop Master to "I have now defeated 20 heroes at A Class and above." There is a good reason Murata is adding more to the Hero Hunt.

Blast doesn't exist but is just there to keep the S rankers from getting too full of themselves. Also I can't wait for Handsomely Masked Sweet Masked's face turn and to join Saitama's crew.

Saitama is probably the only one we've seen in action who can meet Mask's standard of preventing a city from being nuked from orbit the sky. Maybe Tatsumaki too.

Saitama would need a makeover first though. He gets Dr. Stench's hair implants, and then the secret to his power is revealed when he no longer has the versatility and comfort of a bald head multiplying his speed and power.

I assumed the seer was actually tricking boros - just instead of totally making it up, the seer had the prophecy 'here is the one dude that can beat you' and told Boros 'here is the one dude that can challenge you'
I mean, "can beat you" falls under the heading of "can challenge you".
