Anyone want to take bets on all 100 pages basically being a flip-book of Saitama punching those Cthulhu things to death in one hit?

It's good to see some heroes are genuinely powerful as hell and reliable.

onepixeljumpman posted:He comes off as the kinda guy who became a hero because he wanted everyone to love him as a celebrity hero, so exaggerating, even just to himself, the threat he's facing to a disaster that will destroy all humanity is probably just an extension of that. He's like the opposite of Saitama. He just loving destroyed an army of thirty-foot tall fish monsters... I doubt these were weak monsters. Each could probably wreck a city. And he even managed to take four out at once while being physically exhausted enough to barely be able to stand. I'm just saying the guy might have some cause to be a bit cocky. If you're saving the goddamn city every other day is it so wrong to enjoy the celebrity that gets you?

AtomikKrab posted:Genos beat up the Gorilla, off screen but the Gorilla guy was much tougher than these scrubs. Genos is a primary character versus Stringer who's just some random hero. Most of the time when we see heroes leaping into battle it's to showcase how easily the villains are capable of defeating them. I think the only real exception was when we saw that one woman beat up the wind-robot guy... but then he wasn't dead quite yet... I forget her name.

Magikarpal Tunnel posted:The Eyeshield anime was loving abysmal, I would rather not see a Onepunch-man series, just from that. I'm sure it could be done really well, but I still would rather it stay a fuckin awesome manga. Blattdorf posted:They could always make the episodes 5 minutes long and go the Inferno Cop route. Blattdorf's right, this is the solution. Each chapter could well translate into five minutes of awesome footage, and in some cases you could literally just show a flip-book of the actual manga and call it a day. Also the intro should take its self way too seriously.

Kuvo posted:How did Saitama and Genos get separated? I thought they were running there together. I'm guessing Saitama ran right past the fight on accident and is now circling the Earth on his way back. Of course he might of also of noticed an awesome sale and gotten distracted. Either that or this is his mode of transportation...

Condiv posted:No way man. Although mosquito lady got beat, I have it on good authority from ONE that the mosquito that bit saitama escaped and is now evolving into some sort of cell-like abonimation with the help of saitama's super blood, and it will eventually come back and absorb saitama into it's being to become the ultimate being and genos will have to fight and defeat him to avenge his masters death. A Saitama clone with the powers of a mosquito. Well the world's hosed.

JosephWongKS posted:Sonic's a human and not a "monster", though. I don't think Saitama's actually killed any humans in the series so far. Half the monsters we've seen were humans to start who changed from either their own training or genetic engineering. So technically Saitama's murdered the poo poo out of plenty of people... Just really ugly people.

cooldude2.0 posted:By hanging around Saitama, Genos gets to test his hardware without getting completely destroyed. This is at least the third time he's been saved, that's got to be worth a few month's rent. I imagine even if he did die it'd probably turn out his brain is stored outside of his body. He probably has a closet full of extra bodies laying around.

SirDan3k posted:He probably took up brushing early-ish in his training considering he can eat swords. Remember he was almost done in by a tooth ache. So seemingly he probably took more focus on his teeth after getting that one knocked out. I keep hoping the guy who Saitama inspired will show back up, having done his own training. He should seemingly be nearly invincible himself, but Saitama can tell straight away that he didn't train hard enough because he'll have a single hair like Chiaotzu from DB.

Opter posted:Maybe it's already been said but so far some of my favorite OPM moments are Saitama's interactions with other heroes. Other than Genos, the only other hero he seems to respect/appreciate/etc is Licenseless Rider in chapter 26. I don't remember him being particularly impressed by anyone else. And he only hangs out with Genos for money. But if heroes were hanging around with him constantly they'd probably start to feel pretty loving worthless. The guy's a walking goddamn cheat-code for real life.

I have to wonder if even without a flesh and blood body the rules of the Onepunch universe will someday apply to him, and he'll achieve superior power just through his own desperate effort to everyday strive to be the best hero there is.

Lumberjack Bonanza posted:It's baffling that even the execs doubt Saitama. The manga seems to be pushing the idea that the Heroes Association is basically corrupt as gently caress, with a greater emphasis on its public face than what it actually accomplishes. The heroes within it as well as the actual heroes are self-centered dicks who seek to further their own agenda, with good seeds like Licenseless Rider, Genos, and Saitama being the minority. With Saitama basically being a goddamn nobody despite his overwhelming ability they have no reason to give a poo poo about him because he lacks political appeal.

Prison Warden posted:Aside from a psychic chick and a mech/cyborg or two every hero in the Heroes Association is apparently super powerful just through exercise or martial arts training so it's not THAT strange for the people in this world. Not to mention the occasional five-thousand foot tall Piccolo looking demon thing smashing a city, or a big crab guy with drawn on nipples.
