Saitama is strong because he set a goal and worked hard* to achieve it

I started hearing the ending theme to the Incredible Hulk TV show after reading this.

To be fair, I lost my air conditioning for two days the other week and yeah, inhumanly difficult is absolutely true.

I love how full of poo poo Saitama is.

"I feel detached from reality--a life without challenge, or human connection."

"So how about ballroom dancing, or video games, or being a super cool dude, or just hanging out with other heroes?"

"Nah."

Fortunately, King is mighty enough to find a solution.

"Okay, I get it. You're too chicken. I can beat you at videogames with just two fingers."

"WHAT? BRING IT ON!"



Some pretty good showing from the heroes this time.

It's not an inaccurate representation of general depression. When you're bored and tired and sick of your whole life in general you just kinda view everything as a bunch of crap you're not interested in. Even if someone tells you that you'd feel better if you broadened your horizons a bit and went out and did something other than the same poo poo you always do, it doesn't feel helpful or meaningful because it all just seems like the same poo poo as always.

I'm more and more convinced that Watchdogman is an actual dog wearing a gag with a human face drawn on it.

Problem is, his human eyes move in this chapter but not his dog eyes.

Regarding the eyes, I assumed they were dented, allowing it to seem like they moved when we are just observing it from a different angle.


Sadly, I think we're wrong at this point, but I'll live with it just never being answered.

I think it's because it moves Saitama's actual character arc instead of his usual 'punch fist -> end bad guy' routine

That was a really fun chapter and also the chapter where King was his most heroic :3: Also Watchdog man is the first S-Class hero in a while to really live up to it, I suppose Speed of Light Flash did too.

My friend Metal Bat lived up to his rank and so did most of the S ranks who got some focus during the previous arc.

It's only like Tank Top Master who is kinda underwhelming. Genos too half the time I guess.

I don't think there could have been a more perfect introduction to what Watchdog Man can actually do. What a very good chapter.

Metal Bat being near the bottom of the S Class is a goddamn travesty. He's ranked below Genos, for gently caress's sake.

I suppose they are popularity contests to a degree considering Genos has never won a fight p much.
