Blast? I'm sure that Engine Knight will pull a King and be the focus of some major arc down the road.

Genocyber posted:He's got a lot of clout cause he's S class level while also being a model hero in the way the Association wants. Anyone can get to S class if they're strong enough, but anyone doing so the normal way of rising through the ranks isn't actually that strong, so the only new additions are people who are placed in their outright, like Genos. Not to mention that most people don't want to be in S class. Yeah this is what I think. Sweet Mask is both a PR person and he gives the A through C class the idea that he's the one preventing them from entering S Class, when in actual fact to get in S Class you just need to be strong enough to bypass the rank system altogether. It keeps the lower dudes in line thinking there's a way for them to get promoted that high like they did from C to A class when in fact they can't.

Bad Seafood posted:I know, I was just referring to the existence of inexplicable superpowers in general. If Zombieman's regeneration isn't a spoiler, I will say there are others. One or two of the "training" types have a very specific super power type gimmick too. Like Sonic, who is just a strong trained dude but clearly is a speedster.

Genos is a high-performance cyborg so that he can move fast and shoot fire and poo poo, him having the durability of wet tissue paper is probably a necessary but regrettable design flaw. He should get Dr Bofoy to take a look at his specs and tune him up, the dude seems pretty legit.

Has anyone from the hero association even spoke to Genos since he actually got a hero name?

I dunno if rank in the S class is directly comparible to actual power, though. Like, Child Emperor isn't as strong as Pri-Pri Prisoner even and people think King is the strongest guy in the world and he's only ranked 7th. Metal Bat probably just spends too much time helping his school friends out of scrapes, working two jobs to pay for his sick mother's medical bills and listening to his sister's emotional troubles.

The only thing I'm not super good on with the King Engine is that it really isn't obvious that it's an actual audible sound that people around him can hear. You only ever hear it in scenes where it's real close up to King's face, which could give the impression of an internal thought/sound thing going on.

ZepiaEltnamOberon posted:I think all heroes who don't rely on anything else (weapons, cybernetics, psychic powers) are labeled as fighters, but obviously there are clear differences between, say, Bang and the other power-type S Classes. One thing I really like is that while only a couple of heroes, like Tatsumaki, have straight up super powers, ONE does a great job of really distinguishing all the S Class from each other as a superhero team. Metal Bat obviously has hidden depths of incredible intellect. He is likely the second or third highest graded student in his class despite his attitude. He needs to be smart to help his dumb friend pass the big test so he won't get kicked out of school. He's also the one who figured out Melgalazad's weakness.

Genos and Saitama will save money on pork for weeks. Depends how big a freezer Genos can afford I guess.

Cthulhu Dreams posted: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' His followers thought that he was tricked so he'd just gently caress off to the rear end-end of the universe for like 40 years, but this is also possible yeah. Either that, or it was meant to be Garou and Saitama was a total wildcard.

There are a couple of things that comic artists just loving love drawing and Gorillas are one of them. I'd probably say dinosaurs are number two.

You'd need to make the bosses super complicated, with tons of patterns and special moves, clever counter attacks and such and then have it all be totally irrelevant.
