In terms of "running gags" that OPM uses, I don't know if there is really one I like more than King being overestimated by everyone he faces and the misunderstandings that ensue.

My favorite of course being the monster who killed himself due to fear.

My favorite is the assassins in the diner who he mistakes for fans wanting a signature, while they lose their minds about how he has effortlessly seen through their disguises and been noble enough to give them an out to walk away with dignity (then they pick a fight with Saitama once they're outside :lol:)

The fact the chapter starts with but these guys are different, they're invigorated and enthusiastic about facing King! only to immediately lead to them starting to second-guess themselves and convince themselves King is toying with them is just fantastic stuff :allears:

Fuhrer bending over to look at the hole in his stomach and then folding up and falling through it was incredible.

Also holy poo poo King's attempt to prostrate himself being mistaken for him prepping his ultimate move had me howling, and the normal speed instant replay was sensational.

I do need to reread the Monster Association Arc up to this point, just so I have a clearer view of what redrawn chapters ended up discarding from the original editions, I'm legit not entirely sure if the chapter that this incredible spread came from even actually happened anymore:

Incredible chapter.

Something I love is that even though Garou and Saitama's movements are essentially mirrored, Garou's are all "cool" poses while Saitama remains his goofy self, falling clumsily through the air, pinching his nose while swimming out of water etc.

Also I don't for a second think Saitama is hurt, his attitude didn't change in the slightest outside of surprise at seeing Garou adopt his moves, he's more bothered by the fact he might have to actually hurt Garou a little to stop this nonsense after he promised the kid he wouldn't. He's going to show up in typical Saitama fashion next chapter and undercut all Garou's moody edgelord stuff and it's going to rule.

Garou straight up acknowledges that Saitama wasn't fighting anywhere near all-out in their earlier encounter too, but makes the mistake of thinking that this gives him the chance to perfect Saitama's techniques and reach his level, as opposed to Saitama still being an infinity beyond him.

It's awesome, but we better get table-sit again by the end of this :mad:

Saitama's serious battle begins with the color of "a feeling of a last boss that can never be won", and I'm really excited about it ...! What is this messed up battle that is too easy to understand ...! Also, if someone like George-sensei tells me a completely unusual cartoonist, I'm glad ...☺️

Thank you for visiting Dr. Morikawa and Dr. Tsukushi! Excuse me, I'm sorry, 🙏✨this series is also before the final focus, but I will do my best with ONE teacher! Congratulations to Tsukushi-sensei for the start of the second season of Made in Abyss! I will check it on Amazon today!

If Garou had gone back in time after getting his cosmic god powers and challenged Saitama before he even joined the Hero Association, the fight would have gone the same way.

Exactly. The answer to the question,"Is Saitama exponentially stronger than everybody else?" is "Yes" regardless of any and all other conditions. :hai:
