It's comedy but its more based around a character that has unbelievable power and how it affects his hobby.

The gag is cool and such, but the character interactions and watching how Saitama affects the world around him is the highlight for me.

Pretty sure it's Prettyboy-Sociopath and Asshole Tony Stark Expy that are the main villains.

The latter I'm pretty sure is the one who fucked shit up and created the tragic backstory for Genos. The former is just edgy and needs to have a hilariously out of nowhere death like trying to pose for good PR and accidentally falling down an elevator shaft or something.

would all of the s-class heroes put together have had any chance against boros? obviously saitama beat him because he's saitama, but boros was leagues stronger than anything else the heroes have faced. i know tatsumaki has really powerful esper abilities, but she's a normal human, and boros moved fast enough to burn alien metal 50 meters away

>i know tatsumaki has really powerful esper abilities, but she's a normal human, and boros moved fast enough to burn alien metal 50 meters away
You realize she doesn't NEED fast reaction times, right? She has a psychic barrier around her at almost ALL times.
>>
>>136006780
i didn't mean anything about reaction times, i just mean boros has pretty overwhelming strength for non-saitama entities, and i doubt she could damage him like saitama could, or avoid being killed even with a barrier. i mean just a knee upwards took /saitama/ to the moon, that's a lot of strength
>>
>>136006662

No way. Even if they could beat him with his armor removed, Meteoric Burst is just too nuts. He's stronger than Darkshine and faster than Flash at the same time. And even should they somehow find some way to deal with that, they have no way to actually kill him considering he got LIQUIFIED by Saitama and pulled himself back together with ease. He only died when he used up all of his internal energy on his planet buster attack. So, it's a guy moving fast enough that they can't perceive him and hitting so hard that every attack is a one hit kill while being completely invulnerable, and if SHTF still has the fallback of just sweeping away the planet itself. At that point it's not even a fight.

If I was writing it, I suppose the only way for S-Class to achieve victory would be for all of them to be there, use their combined powers to force Boros into Meteoric Burst, and then try to hold out by throwing heroes into the meat grinder until he exhausts himself. After that, Tatsumaki might be able to finish him off, albeit after the S-Class suffers a huge death toll.
>>
>>136006780
Boros has a self-proclaimed strongest esper in the universe working under him, surely he can handle her type.
>>
>>135997172
he's a character from a comedy manga where the gag is the main hero kills everything in one punch.

He's far too fast even without that.

He regenerated from a flurry of punches from Saitama after an exausting battle where he used meteoric burst twice. She is not damaging him.

Probably Boros? He seemed to be faster and physically stronger, albeit without the energy blasts.

>>136008299

>He regenerated from a flurry of punches from Saitama after an exausting battle where he used meteoric burst twice

That's why I'm saying they'd need to try and hold him off until he runs out of energy. After activating MB the rest of his fight with Saitama probably lasted less than a minute, including the round trip to the moon and getting punched into paste (considering the total time of the fight is 'around five minutes' in the databook) and he was already struggling to stand under his own power even after such a short length of time.

Bear in mind of course, I agree that Boros would tear the S-Class apart like wet paper, I said as much in the first paragraph.
>>
>>136008516
>someone calculate the force it would take to kick Saitama to the moon
it's hugely velocity dependent, especially since it appears to be in the relativistic range (earth to moon =~ 1.3 light seconds)

80 kg going at 0.5 c = 1.1x10^18 J = 268 Megaton equivalent energy.
0.9 c is about 2 Gigatons, ...

If it wasn't already immediately obvious, real physics don't really apply in OPM.

At the very least, the reaction from Boros's kick would have shot him down through his own ship by Newton's Third Law.

What if Boros was aiming for the moon?
>>
>>136003787

Yes he was.

Saitama was disciplining Boros for being evil. Then when the time came, he was killed by a single punch.

Measuring strength by blowing things in Dragon Ball is retarded, Roshi could blow the moon and he can't even run at sonic speed, lifting 100x the mass of their bodies was the limit of any pre-super saiyan character.

Punching someone at Frieza's level just some meters away is enough to knock-out them.

Stop trying to oversimplify him. He's a spiky haired space pirate with an army of flunkies, insane regenerative abilities and a desire to have a good fight.

>>136009518
how about the fact the moon thing was just added for eye candy and wasn't part of the fight in the original webcomic? It was just scripted in for the sole purpose of looking cool and making boros look strong, not to give saitama a possibility to lose the fight

No one denies that there are countless ways to defeat saitama, same applies to most other super strong characters like goku and superman via methods other than lazerbeams or strong punching, but those things are not what superhero comics and fighting manga are about.
Special circumstances are pointless in a vs discussion

Didn't he say after the "fight" that he was just playing around? I don't think he ever treated what they were doing as an actual battle in the same way he did with Boros, Saitama was just trying to talk Garou down because he could see straight through to the guy's true intentions.

Frieza literally kicks Vegeta's full power attack into atmosphere, that Vegeta is 100 times stronger than the time he wanted to blow the earth.

Nappa literally punches tenshinhan's arm off, Tenshinan is stronger and more durable than Raditz which was easily crushing 2 moon busters.

Trunks made Mecha Frieza into mincemeat, Frieza without half his body and 0 energy was capable of surviving the explosion of a planet just fine.

You're motherfucking stupid if you think their striking strenght is low.

Was Saitama really disciplining him? I get that his first punch was him saying "fuck you guy, you can't just go around hurting people like that", but after he actually survived one punch I got the impression Saitama was humoring him because on some level he empathized with Boros' desire to give it his all against a worthy opponent.

He did milk it, but it was while Boros talked and gloated about his strength. Still qualifies as punishment, imhotep. Saitama was teaching him a lesson.

2GT was just an example for an arbitrarily chosen speed.

Saitama wrecks like a quarter of the moon's surface when he jumps back, so that could easily be something in the Tera- or even Petaton region.

I wasn't saying that Garou was weak at all, I'm just saying that Saitama never described what they were doing as a proper "fight"--which makes sense, since he only ever fights to kill when his opponent is a monster, something he knew Garou was only pretending to be.

Besides, there's no point arguing that when Word of God states that Garou and Boros at their height were equals.

>>136011539

Are you stupid? This is Boros's point, he is a regenfag. He has high regen, speed and destructive power. Meanwhile Garou has high art martial mastery and he is a genius about fights.

They have totally different fighting styles.

There's no possible way for the ground to remain perfectly solid for Saitama's jump. It would have been shot beneath his feet giving as much traction as a dog running on a waxed floor.

The calculations for the amount of force Saitama needed to jump from the moon would have to be doubled at the very least. The regolith would have been instantly transformed into a molten HEAT explosion digging several km deep into the lunar crust, and it would have absolutely caused any sleeping lunar beast to awaken.

saitama doesn't quite completely fuck up the moon, but he probably did do damage in the low gigaton range, getting himself back to earth somewhere in the 0.9 to 0.99 c range.

not that OPM is a bastion of accurate physics though since the shockwaves of his departure and return would have killed everyone in hundreds of miles, and the ship would have had to been ridiculously durable to have not been completely cored through by his landing, etc.

>he could even take Saitama's Normal Punches better then Boros

Can we even be certain of that? Eyelashes and Mountain Ape got punched and survived, so did Tanktop Tiger, if you're a human he'll lower the intensity to an appropiate level.

Saitama commented on Garou being stron because of his attack power, not his resistance. Sure he's still tough as hell, but we can't really know the distance between his Toughness and Boros.

As for the serious series moves he used in the fight, one was to flip the environment and the other was an attack targeting a limb. It was pretty much just fucking around like with Sonic and the sidehops.

He treated it the same way you might see some high school punks pushing each other around outside your house.
