"There is no God! Right, Mama?"

"True."


I would imagine Thanos trying to pull a move on Saitama but only succeeding in turning his clothes into ash and leaving him naked and trying to cover himself but by then Thanos has seen everything.

Edit: Garou snipe.

Saitama would beat Thanos, but somehow still fail to save the world from him.

He would also beat Squirrel Girl, and become utterly publicly reviled for beating up a beloved girl-hero.

His finger is freakishly long. I have big hands and my finger still stops where his second joint is. That thing is like twice the distance between his wrist and knuckles.

He loved playing piano so much he turned into Dave Brubeck. He's a pianist monster.

If Crablante turned into a crab monster from eating too much crab then obviously a pianist monster would have eaten too many pianos.

So Murata gave a pretty big buff to Geryuganshoop

https://www.reddit.com/r/OnePunchMan/comments/8hkkm4/stream_spoilers_chapter_92_prerelease_megathread/dyncanb/

quote:

Someone with expert Japanese transcribed Murata's statement on Geryuganshoop on stream:

quote:

先生, 海外の方からの質問です: ゲリュガンシュプは本当に重力でブラックホールを作れるほどの能力があったのか? めっちゃ気になってるそうです. ん~どうなんですかね. ブラックホール作れたら最強な気がしますけど. そこらへんはONEさんに聞いてみないとわかんないですね. 物体を飛ばす能力ならタツマキ以上だったのかな. ゲリュガンシュプが念動力で小石を飛ばしてたけど, タツマキがあれをやると出力が強すぎて一瞬で小石が蒸発しちゃうんだけど, 空気との摩擦と圧縮熱で. ゲリュガンシュプは空気との摩擦を0にして飛ばすことができるから, 亜光速で石が飛んでくるというね. っていうつもりで描いてました. タツマキはデッケーものは飛ばせれるけど, スピードには限界があるみたいで. やっぱり宇宙最高の超能力者でしたね。埼玉は普通に石投げて勝っちゃたもんねソイツに。埼玉からしたら亜光速で石が飛んできてもただ石を投げただけにしか見えない, 悪い冗談ですよね.

Here's a full, more accurate translation:

quote:

(Murata reads stream question): Murata sensei, here's a question from overseas: can Geryuganshoop actually create black holes by manipulating gravity? It seems like they care about this a lot.

Murata: hm~, I'm not sure. Black holes seem too powerful. I won't know for sure without asking ONE. But his ability to control flying object should be above Tatsumaki, because he can eliminate the friction between rocks and air. If Tatsumaki throws rocks like he does, her output will be too powerful, the temperature increase due to friction and pressure, and evaporate the rocks in an instant. Geryuganshoop's psychokinesis can eliminate the friction between objects and air, the rocks will fly at sub-light speed*, that's the setting I based my drawing on. Tatsumaki can through very large objects, but there's a limit to how fast she can throw them. Geryuganshoop is the greatest psychic in the universe after all.

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.

*The Japanese used here is 亜光速, I looked it up and it means speed that is between 90% and 100% the speed of light. Hope that clarifies everything.

No because Saitama would probably be bad at baseball and end up chucking the bat into the stratosphere.

I'm pretty sure Saitama can grab things without destroying them. Though he has to put some strength into it, so...maybe? Especially in contact with a Blue-pitched ball...that's actually a good question.

Someone analyzed the OP and figured out that Saitama throws punches so fast that they blue-shift because they are travelling close to the speed of light.

He can grab things, but h'd have to swing the bat so fast at a ball travelling so fast that neither could make it out of the encounter. There's a chance that both accelerate so quickly that neither technically makes contact with the other before being destroyed.

Probably aura extended over the bat protected it from harm. Just like how their clothes survive till their aura is weakened enough for things to start hurting them.

When you bring physics into things, once you're moving at speeds like 0.9c, a baseball bat and the air are equivalently clouds of disassociated atoms. The bonds that hold a bat into its shape basically have zero relevance.

All is, if i have grace to use it so...
Squirrel-Girl vs Saitama just depends on who's comic it is.

If it's Squirrel-Girl's Saitama gets covered in squirrels spazzes out, and is laying rear end up on the ground unconscious in the next frame. That actually happened to a fully armored Dr.Doom.

If it's One Punch Man, Tippy-Toe(her main squirrel) gets into his groceries, he rage faces, next frame Tippy-Toe's buried head-first in the ground to the waist, Squirrel girl gets mad at him about it and tries to punch him while he looks at her bored, next frame she's planted in the dirt right next to Tippy.

In Squirrel-Girl comics they skip frames in fight scenes when there's literally nothing they could put there that would make any sense, in OPM they do it to convey just how instantaneous the fight was.

Nah, I have to agree with the other posters. Squirrel Girl's thing is winning impossible fights for comedic value, Saitama's thing is being all powerful but getting screwed over for comedic value.

Squirrel Girl would be Saitama's kryptonite.

If I were drawing it id have a little bubble with a shopping list of things saitama hates and the more he interacts with SG the more ticks appear on the list.
○Hates being reminded hes bald
○Hates people who talk too much
○Hates being showed up
○Hates being press ganged
○Hates uninvited house guests

Yeah, the way I see it unfolding is less as a fight and more as Saitama being driven to an aneurysm.

You could also frame it as a friend date but everything goes right for SG and wrong for saitama. Saitama's root beer explodes in his face and SG gets to try new coke acorn flavor. Saitaim breaks his wooden chopsticks again and SG gets offered free dumplings on the house. A dog pees on saitama while an army of squirrels sew a beautiful cinderella dress right on SG.
