Hey, hey. Everyone would want a fan club of some sort. It's recognition. Genos is the abnormal one here.
This series keeps getting better and better. I knew that Saitama was going to "fail" in the hero exam in some way. At least he proved by breaking all records and measurements that he is "something else". Its nice how we were hinted that the reason that they even exist is cause he saved the founders child and still he is totally unrecognized and put in the lowest rank of the association. Genos has done almost nothing and he is already a big star getting special treatment from the A #1.
The fight animations are amazing. Even if this show would have no humor or plot at all only watching those would be the best experience in anime in a while.
Also: I can pay rent... toothbrush?
See, I keep doing that too. Going "Okay, this is a shounen series, so there will be some awesome reveal about his powers."Quote:

See, thatīs the problem: Everything is NOT a joke ... except for Saitama. All the characters, all the villains, everything around him behaves and acts like a serious, typical shounen anime. And, to be exact, even Saitama fits well into this serious context. A problem only arise when you refuse to explain his powers. Thatīs where it all crumbles and you have to apply the "pure comedy anime" label to make it all work.Quote:

Right, the main character, which pretty much every interaction in the show involves. Making everything in the show a joke.Quote:

Dat's the joke.
It's the fact it's not desperately trying to crack jokes left and right which makes it so good comedy. The writing, setting, characters, and scenes speak for themselves. I attribute to this why I didn't find the first ep so terribly funny, but once I got used to it, it all started to click wonderfully.
And thatīs what I personally find disappointing/frustrating. Thereīs a great shounen series inside, but itīs all led ad absurdum by one character. You guys donīt need to be all "that is the point!!1", I understand that. I just donīt like that too much. Okay?Quote:

The series is not going to change no matter how much you complain about how it doesn't satisfy you. There are three identical shonen series this season that can satisfy your concerns expressed here.
I thought Heavy Object was shit and I dropped it on the first episode. Were there redeeming factors in that series? Maybe, if very few. But I'm not going to pretend it is going to shift into more standard mecha fare.
Stop your smug act NOW.Quote:

It's one thing to complain about a shitty show being shit (it's even fun sometimes) or repeatedly attacking the flaws of a series that takes itself far too seriously.Quote:

Bitching about your hopes and dreams that this series will jump the shark and become a serious version of what it is lampooning is deeply flawed on a fundamental basis. You're seriously better off finding something else if this offends you to such a degree that you have to carry on for two additional pages about how it doesn't satisfy you.
I realize that in reviewing the discussion on page 3, that I've repeated everything I said there over again. The difference is that I was polite about it then. I'm not now.

That is not true. As I mentioned in my posting about the latest episode, I touched on the subject again, because Genos touched on it again, too. I already forgot the specific scene, but there was one where Genos wondered about Saitamaīs powerīs source again. That made me hopeful that weīd eventually get an explanation after all.Quote:

I'm still baffled by how anyone can find this series not funny, ep1 included.Quote:

I'm starting to get sick of Saitama being stuck in C class now. I want him to make it big. After 6 episodes of him being underappreciated by the general population I'm feeling sorry for him. I get the irony of him being such a big hero that he's a monster to everybody and all.. but this has actually been the weakest episode to date.
The best part was Saitama having issues about scamming Genos, then actually scamming him.
I can see why.Quote:

And yeah, letīs hope we get some quality h-doujins featuring that blizzard lady or what she called herself.
They can't. He broke all physical records by huge margins. No one can match him physically.Quote:

Huh? He's like tired of his life from the very start.
I love that he's the monster they're all worried about and nobody knows it. Not even him.
I hadn't even noticed that his neighborhood was abandoned except for him.
...what the fuck? He's been a Hero for ONE EPISODE!Quote:

Saitama is poorly suited to being a formal hero. I hope Tatsumaki becomes his friend. She seems like a funny person.

Another good episode. I really liked how he keeps trying to get rid of Genos. I was feeling bad for poor speedo-sound sonic but then he went in a senseless rampage only to get Saitamas attention. Thats a dick move. Also those A rank guys seemed pretty weak (even compared to Genos).
If this hero association thing is the basis of the manga I dont think his promotions in ranks should be rushed. Unless its a very short anime or just a short arc I would like to get this paced well. Maybe getting to B in 3-4 episodes.
Also someone should ban this doubleposters... sigh. Shame on you.
p.s: that doogy guy looked pretty plain (and strong) maybe S rank is the real thing and Saitama can find a match there.
No, I'm pretty sure Saitama will never find a match anywhere, apart from time itself. Unless he punches Grim Reaper in the face by accident when the time comes and is doomed to live forever without getting satisfied.Quote:

Last I read the anime was going to be about 12-13 episodes long. Hope we get more. The info my be out dated since I read that just prior to the anime beginning to air.
Just watched it. Anime-original, here we gooooo!
I like that they brought in the two ladies this early. This episode was not as funny as the others though. The best parts are Saitama's complaint about the seaweed and hair effects and the blatant parodying of Hunter X Hunter (and other derivatives) with the city visit, the ranks, and the strange powers. Even the forest monster scene was screaming Chimera ants.
I thought the rapier guy was pretty cool. Turned his sword into the Sword of Lethargy from Dragon Quest for a minute there.
One and then some. And that doesn't detract from the feeling that I'm tired of it already.Quote:

All the big shots seem interesting and I want to meet them soon. I don't want another episode of Class-C where he makes a dick of himself in the city and meets shit like Tank-Top Tiger.
Yeah, that's what makes it funny.Quote:

Episode 8 --------------------
Officially the best show the season by far. Animation and soundtrack is on point.
Sad to see even the S-Rank 3 isn't too impressive. I hope the #1 S Rank puts up at least some kind of fight.
Saitama listened to the agitation speech surprisingly long.
He really needs his own harmless fan club. Maybe that would go a little way to make it worth all the frustration he's been going through.
I know it's supposed to be a parody of the common "stupid masses" scene in many shounen/hero shows, but this still pissed me off. I really think people who fall into mob mentality like that deserve to be skinned alive then dipped into salted vinegar, then healed completely in order to go through it again until I grow tired of anime (good luck).
The guy couldn't do anything about a meteor (even though he's a practitioner of Fist of Flowing Water Crushing Rock :p ). I bet his anti-personnel abilities are top notch though.Quote:

It's good to be reminded that in the end, he doesn't actually care.
I'm loving the contrast between him and the rest. Metal Knight insists on being called by his hero name. Saitama just owns up to 'a hero' when asked.
That aside, Genos is a necessity in this show. Saitama is great for his graphic one-punches and comic relief, but that yellow suit and bald head can only go so far. This is anime and we need eye-candy. Geno's looks, upgrades and "fire arms" provide all the eye-candy to keep us satisfied. Only then can we enjoy Saitama's low-tech finishes.
Don't take it as a mob scene, take it as a scene where the "heroes" of the show are all selfish pieces of shit, and nearly as worthless.Quote:

There are 17 S-class heroes. Three showed up. One couldn't do anything to meteor, one had no desire to help outside his own ends (and had he waited, there would have been no damage at all), and Genos was the only one who went all out to actually try and in doing so, die a hero's death.
Even then, don't forget that Genos' desire is no less selfish than Metal Knight. He wants to get strong so he can get his revenge. Saitama, bicycle guy, and maybe the old man are the only ones we've seen who actually care about helping people.
The mob scene wasn't to show how distraught people can be manipulated (Saitama did it too in shutting them down), it was to show what huge pieces of shit the Tank Top brothers are. Did we see them cleaning up rubble? No. Were they helping anyone? No.
Like the #StandWithMizzou people?Quote:

I think it's the same name in the original.
@Ryll - Whatever it was meant to show, it pissed me off.
It would have been a failure of a scene if it hadn't. If it pisses off the audience, you'd need to multiply it by 100 to know how much it should have pissed off Saitama. But Saitama is Saitama, so he's not so easily shaken.Quote:

They're bitching about their little problems while he made sure they all didn't die outright. He took all their resentment and brushed it off by stating he was just doing what had to be done because he wanted to, not for fame.
Pure Bushidō, baby.
But they still think he caused the destruction right?
"At least nobody died"
LOL
Yeah, that's ridiculous. Meteors smashed half the buildings in the city. There's no way nobody would have been killed.Quote:

ALthough I wondered if Saitama couldnīt have shielded the town from the meteorīs debris, too. If heīs fast enough, he could have crushed every single piece into dust. Guess even his power hs its limits ... or he was lazy lol
It had already happened before he landed back on the ground, so there's very little he could have done. In fact considering the circumstances, he wouldn't have even seen what was going on since it happened behind his back with the explosion between them. Also, he can't fly, he can only jump, so he would have needed something solid under his feet to alter his course. All in all, impossible.Quote:

Genos could've possibly shot Macross Missiles to chase down most of the debris. Too bad he had already fizzled out after using a lifetime's worth of nen. Luckily, he can just replace parts like Guren Lagann.
Tornado might have been able to control the asteroid, but we'll never know. I'm sure she'll insist that she could have done it though.
Frankly, I think we should all be thankful he didn't die because he jumped all the way to space.Quote:

I've seen him eat, but I've never seen him breath (at least visibly). But maybe he eats just because he likes the taste.
Didn`t they evacuate the city?Quote:

Saitama gets tired and hungry. His performance might even go down as he lacks energy, who knows.
I reckon that as strong as Saitama is, he still ages. That's the only thing I'm relatively sure about, really.
How can you tell he ages? He's friggin bald!!!
I can't tell. It's a gut feeling that he can't stop being human.
*if human is the right word for what he is right now..
I think they mentioned a few times that it's like there's a god inside of him. He even had that burning/light behind his eyes when he took down his very first monster as well as in his own dream. I mean there are God Level threats so not sure if that means something like an asteroid that could wipe out the planet or an actual god-like being.
True. But the crazy evolution scientist also had that gleam in his eye in one scene.Quote:

Probably this.Quote:

first off: I feel that some scenes were much batter paced in the manga, mostly concerning the meteor and the robot, but also speed of sound sonic jumping around saitama. and that's it for mange comparisons.
I don't understand the need to ask about Saitama source of powers, it's akin to asking how can a cyborg exist given the current state of technology, how can the subterrean people live unnoticed in the bottom of the earth and how can a battle suit destroy a building without destroying the user as well. it's anime magic. but if you really want a 'semi-plausible' explanation - he got monster ooze inside his system when fighting the crab monster. EOF.
looking forward to watch the next episodes.
Pretty sure he was already a monster when he fought the crab thing. He just hadn't polished his skills (and scalp) yet by the gruesome muscle training regimen and thus wasn't aware of it himself.Quote:

I meant to say that if you're bothered by the lack of justification for his powers, there are plenty of ways to explain them, and they are just as plausible (and implausible) as 'standard' shonen explanations.
Why are 'gamma radiation', 'super training at a dojo', 'cyborg parts', 'alien origins' and 'the spirit of god' good explanations while 'dedication to strength training' isn't?
it's the same thing you have with comic books super heroes. how does a super alien like Superman and the martian manhunter fit in a universe with a guy shooting arrows at petty criminals? Beast from X-man is much closer to regular joe human mutant hater than to super god of magnetism magneto.
It's either twisting the story and forcing it to to appear to make sense (it still won't, but you'll have to look for the stiches), or just accepting the premise and enjoy the story they're trying to tell.
I'm not against the whole "take what you see" approach, as that's how I'm going about it anyway... but Saitama's been pretty absurd from the beginning. I don't think gutting a giant grab with a tie comes under something normal people can do.Quote:

episode 8 is out
-----------------------
ok, so everybodyīs gonna jump at me again for writing this, buuut: this episode really made me YET AGAIN hate that this is a shounen parody instead of a serious shounen-series. When Puri Puri Prisoner "transformed" and used his angel attack on the seaking, despite being naked, the aesthetic of the imagery, those angel wings, combined with the fantastic music, reminded me of the best days during Hunter X Hunterīs chimera arc. THat was an awesome scene. And it has me wishing for this to be a serious anime :/
Also, Amai Mask makes me sad that we never got a sequel for Death Note. Dat Light seiyuu :>
Yeah but it's not serious, and it is a parody. No way can a flamboyant naked bro named "puri puri prisoner" be serious.Quote:

Just because Saitama has terrible luck.
I wonder if Sonic could cut through Aquaking's skin. If he could, he'd be pretty imba, at least a top S ranker stronger than Genos. His abilities sort of limit what he can do though. No AOE, flight, etc.
As said, he just didn't cross Saitama's path yet...Quote:

What? They aren't useless. It just depends on the threat. Who knows how many lives are saved from normal criminals by those B rank and below.
It seemed to also show that the better side of the less than S class heroes in that the few lower ranked ones still tried to protect the citizens in the shelter; even the one that soiled himself. Of course, they were there in the first place because they tried to evacuate so it could be argued they were only fighting in self defense. I found the rest of the battles very exciting and at least somewhat interesting.Quote:

But then again he's in a real slump after getting beaten by a hero, even if he's still acting all cocky.Quote:

Well, it's true my comment was excessive.Quote:

Sonic would be able to make S-class pretty easily if someone made him a lightsaber.
Saitama embraces the whole old-fashion thing to the T. No cell phone, no mode of transport.
At least this time the Association knows about Saitama now. Deep Sea King shouldn't pose a threat since OPM surpasses him in both speed and power. I wonder how this would have played out had it been an underwater fight. Could Saitama's body withstand bites? He's taken burns to the face (prolly why he lost his hair) but has parried most other sharp attacks.
Oh, and Sonic with his girly waist :3
The dude can break swords with his teeth. Lost his hair due to his training. The only time he's been injured as far as we have seen was in his own dream. I'm not sure if he CAN be injured. Though I suppose he still needs to breathe so keep him underwater long enough to drown him. Then again...a single punch can split clouds so he'd just have to punch to clear the water.
I'm pretty sure nothing imaginable (and that universe seems to imagine awfully lot) can harm poor Saitama physically, either due to his toughness or the exquisite speed. However, I reckon he could be hurt psychologically, even though he seems to have quite the resistance over there as well. I'm going to place my hopes there nonetheless, even if I'm not expecting anything major at all, but who knows, maybe something could stir an emotion out of him.
http://i.imgur.com/2CaK4rd.jpg
I discounted breaking swords with his teeth because that was an offensive move. Had he taken the sword to the face and shrugged it off, that would be something else. He says he lost his hair due to his training, but he knows jack all about himself. His training isn't even very stressful. I wouldn't take it as truth.
would be hilarious if we found out the somehow Saitama encounters explosions/ fire attacks so frequently that his hair simply has no chance to re-grow lol
Also, since when is Genos faster than Saitama? Not just faster, but so significantly faster that he left him behind to scout ahead?
When they battle against each other, Saitama shows he's much faster.
Genos flew, I think. And Saitama wasn't seriously rushing. Look at his face while running. And the look at his face at the end of the episode.
Yeah that's his serious face.
I think Saitama never takes things seriously until its clear that ppl are in danger. He did the same against Sonic when he went rampage to call his attention. He is quite obnoxious about others and danger.
Also writer cant help but concede the cliches about manga. Cant have the strongest character reach first at every fight and kill in 1 punch the enemy. He gives us the chance of tasting a bit of shounen, with a few A and S heroes beating the dust and then he launches in Saitama to end it in a flash.
Saitama is faster than anyone else when it comes to combat and bursts. However, he also gets tired from running around. I'm not 100% sure that his speed equates to transporting between cities faster.
What is that based on?Quote:

The need to sleep is a pretty good sign that fatigue kicks in.
His power level is the strongest in the series, "funny scenes" such as him running around looking for bad guys does not count in the same way Milk beating the crap out of Goku does not counts.
I think that's the point of the rankings, to show that ranks are based more on popularity and appeal than on actual merit.Quote:

and yes, I also think that sonic and Sasuke are very much alike.
