AFAIK when Crimea was taken by Russia every russian poster went full defensive,that Crimea was not taken by Russia but some pro-russuan group not related to Moscow. So everytime someone called them on their bullshit they started asking for proofs, articles citations and stuff like this.

And chicken is parody of the Russian federation eagle I think.

But I was told the chicken is associated with fags in Russia, and it's not always used with the flag like the federeation eagle

One cour is hardly enough for Garou arc especially with the current fillers.

So far I'd break it down like this up to the current arc using the rushed pacing of the anime

ep1: King
ep2: Garou's intro
ep3: Fubuki
ep4: Garou vs jobbers
ep5: Metal Bat vs Centipede/Garou

and that's not even considering possible 2-episode arcs.
>>
The fight with Garou might not be so flashy, but Garou was helluva more tough than Boros. I mean he could go toe to toe with Saitama doing a two hand normal punch combo and not get obliterated. He just got overwhelmed and lost a horn in the process. Not to mention he was not even fighting on his best and could easily "toy" around with casual Saitama.

Fucking Garou could have became as strong as Saitama if he didn't went all insane and shit.

I think both King and Fubuki/Sanic/Genos have arcs that can't be stuffed into one episode to be honest. I also think Garou would be introduced once those mini-arcs are finished.

1. King.
2. Probably King again.
3. Fubuki's intro and duel with Saitama.
4. Sanic gets a haircut.
5. Garou's intro, Bang spanking Charanko, Charanko whining to Saitama's new team.
6. Garou vs TTP and his bros, Garou meeting the ugly kid, Saitama giving out free bananas and gathering info on Garou.
7. Garou vs GB and SM, Saitama meeting him and buying himself a sick wig.
8. Metal Bat vs Monsters.
9. Garou vs Metal Bat.
10. The tournament probably.
11. Could be anything, I think we'll get more extra shit.
12. Finale. Gatling and Genos shit, Bang and Bomb sneak up on Garou, Garou's flashback, MA intro. Cliffhanger to another cour/season.
>>
>>135043876
I agree. It was still pretty good but I was a little pissed that they did the cliffhanger, however, I expected it and it made ep 12 all the more worth it.

Saitama said it himself, it's all about determination, and Garou was half-assing it. He didn't want to be a monster, as evidenced by his refusal to kill. He wanted to be a hero that unites the world and saves every person, but he decided to do it the easy way by making everyone afraid of him. The "easy way" does not break the limiter.

Unlikely, the manga extras are supposed to be an extra bonus to get people to buy the volumes. As the greatest majority isn't available for free online (pirating aside). That's why the anime is doing original mini-ovas for the bd extras instead of doing the extras for the manga. So those buying the BD have some content not available everywhere else.

This. I'm surprised how many people miss the fact that Garou's loss - and the whole battle with Saitama - was mental first and foremost. He kept persisting up to the hero bomb.

There's a reason the limiter theory was explained in his arc - he was in the process of breaking it but lacked the confidence to become what he truly wanted, unlike Saitama. Maybe it's for the better, all Saitama got in the end was the deepest fucking depression ever.

What if they extend the fights and throw in "fillers"? They've done that in this season.
>>
>>135052646

Finally some of the very few guys that get it. Garou was breaking all the limiters and was VERY close in breaking them all. After the speech of Saitama and the loss, if he gets his shit down and reevaluate his goals he might be as strong as saitama.. meaning "Infinite" strong. It's all about determination. NOT training. So in the end of the manga you might have a sonic that actually through sheer force of will becomes AS strong as Saitama so he can have an equal fight.

Saitama was stronger than monster Garou but not with the difference he was in others. It was like he was 10 times stronger and not like a billion times stronger than him.

Nah, what's funny is that Garou was holding back while SAITAMA out of all people was egging him on and trying to make him go all out. He even went serious first. In the end Garou's downfall and the "twist" of the fight was his lack of desire to become a true monster. His huge monstrous form only made him weaker.

>Garou was holding back in a meaning that he was not ready to kill.
Exactly, which means he was holding back his full power. He didn't want to kill Saitama, just "beat" him.

And that, ironically, is why he could not beat him.

Are we talking about animation wise or story?

I did notice most the animation was below their usual in the latter half but I think we all seen where it went during the finale.

Ofcourse storywise, the pacing was too slow and the jokes were setup decades in advance from 1-6. The jokes were adapted much better in the latter half.
>>
>>135054983
>And that, ironically, is why he could not beat him.
No, Garou couldn't beat Saitama because he is not stronger than Boros, and we all know how the Boros fight went.
>>
>>135055180
You're missing the point. Garou holding back is why he couldn't break his limiter.

>>135055287
And you seem to think that just everyone in OPM-universe can break their limiter and obtain Saitama's level of strength. You are wrong.

I didn't miss anything, that's exactly why he couldn't become a monster. He beat up heroes in a way that wouldn't kill them, repressing his strength on purpose. If he were honestly edgy and bloodthirsty and, well, monstrous, his crusade and the fight with Saitama would've been way faster and darker. Different.

>Are you one of those people that think that Saitama went serious against Boros?
I'm one of those people who believe in the limiter theory, for now. If ONE craps on it in the future, so be it. But at the moment Garou's loss was decided by his lack of determination and confidence, that's why he couldn't break his limiter and become the ideal HERO like he wanted to, deep down. Now if he were to actually break his limiter, we don't know how strong he'd be.

Judging from Saitama's reaction in >>135053175 he didn't want him to give up either. We'll see what ONE does with his character from now on.
>>
>>135055334

Actually yes. This is exactly what is implied. People think that raw training or power is what makes you strong while the truth is.. that only determination and keeping a clear state of mind is what makes you become a beast.

"God put limiters on mortal beings so they don't go insane if they become too strong"

It's a 100% psychological and mental thing.

Swap "seems" with "it looks like". What does it change? It's the same indication. My point is limiter breaking is not exclusive to Saitama and Garou is written with the same fucking theme, pushing himself, surpassing limits, until he hits the wall of confidence that is Saitama. Confidence is what he lacked to break the limiter completely.

In all seriousness, yes. Save for the introduction of King and Fubuki, which would be one episode both, what comes after this is basically one long traditional arc.
