Feels like he might have some sympathy for him and his story and *play along* before getting bored and destroying him, both have the same problem and the same prophecy, too strong within their own *world'. Doubt they would play up the trope of him finally meeting his match, more like Boros will meet his but end up disappointing Saitama like always.
Im conflicted cause I don't want him to meet his match...cause that would take away from the gag of him having God Mode on..but I also want to see him actually get serious to see how awesome the fight looks.
You will find out next ep.

Implied, probably true
Most likely but he got unlucky and fought Saitama instead LOL
But if you have more questions head over to the One Punch Man One thread because it'd probably be best to leave all the black/white bars out of this thread lol

shades of Bui from YYH instantly flashed across my mind when that happened.
Damn though, it's gonna take 2 fucking punches? Boros too stronk.

That thread discusses both the webcomic and manga versions. Just a heads up to manga only readers.

oh no wonder, there's no space between one and punch. Ned to catch up on Mob Psycho first.

Bruh. Murata's OPM has been in print for years, and everyone in this thread knows exactly what I was referring to regardless.

I'm so glad they included the maze
god i fucking love the scene where Saitama flicks the rock at Geluganshp and he just dies
like, it's so goofy, Saitama showing Gel that he can toss rocks without psychic powers and then Gel just dies
was Saitama even trying to kill him with that?
it just cracks me up every time.
it's also funny because Tats is just so much more powerful than him lol

One punchman new chapters are released for free on the web companion to young jump, tonari no young jump. You can even access it outside Japan. Kind of makes it super impressive the volumes sell so well

To be perfectly fair, Gel never had a chance to impress us with feats. Who knows how he'd stack against Tatsumaki. Saitama tends to make everyone he faces look like chumps.
That scene, though, is definitely my favorite of the episode. Saitama was definitely trying to kill him. In a way it reminds me of Tats being a smart ass against Ancient King.
Edit:
I hope it continues to sell well and that translates into other stuff like merchandise.
I like your username, unrelatedly.
While everyone does look like a chump in front of Saitama, I feel like Tatsumaki would never use just pebbles to attack an enemy (unless she has, but i can't recall), but Fubuki uses them all the time, so Gel just reminds me more of Fubuki haha.
Idk, it seemed Saitama was just trying to demonstrate, and ended up killing him with it. I mean, he was always going to kill him anyway, but the way he does it made it seem like an accident, even if it was on purpose.
It's just so goofy. Saitama is the best.

If he wasn't lying and light could not escape from the center of his gravity attack (that would just plain kill anything,
even Garou

No Genos this week 
but at least it was action packed. Boros survived Saitama punch :O can't wait for next week!

I would be interested to see them fight though.
edit: as far as I can tell he didn't use that gravity wave in the original, and he's even more of a jobber lol

Doesn't read OPs, especially not his own
This episode as awesome, and in the last 2 minutes, got ridiculously hilarious
Cool. Can't wait to see the lather half of the Garo arc in his artstyle.

Kuwabara is so much smarter than these S class heroes. He knew how to handle guys like that mutli-headed guy
Saitama deserves a better supporting cast

I think he will lose if it was up to ONE.The Anime just added some BS impossible attack to hype him up for a gag, which makes me wonder if they'll do anything similar to Boros.
Murata does tack on a lot of extras to the volumes, not to mention art fixes and such. I think the latest volume even came bundled with an OVA.
Webcomic spoilerVulcano's assistant said:
He never used that in either ONE or Murata's version, it's the exact same thing that Tatsumaki and Psykos use in the MA arc, and according to Tats' statement Fubuki can also probably do it. It also failed to kill Garou, but it did manage knock him out once before he started powering up the wazoo, then he just shrugged it off.
i mean i love the gag, so it's welcome in my book lol
i feel like they'll keep the boros fight 1:1, or pretty close, since it is the highlight of the arc

You know, I always wondered where Flashy flash and the other S class heroes were during this fight.

Man, this series is amazing in so many ways.
Setting aside the fact that it's simply the most entertaining take on superheroes in any modern media to date, the fact that they have 3 versions of this story running, and all of them are worthwhile and relevant to watch, each version that follows adding more details and gags than the one before it...
It's a modern marvel. They're both accurate to the source material and yet add spades on top of it.
Sadness that the anime will be over soon for the season... but there's not that much source material to work with, and this is a great ending point.
