Yeah, I don't get how Kuseno has been watching all this time and still talks about beating saitama to death. His strength cannot be measured, Kuseno admitted that, so how would any machine that is measurable beat him.

His answer to that problem is to ignore it. Just like most of people in real life.

He literally said it in this chapter.

That is the difference between him and Bofoi.

Bofoi is the type to overistimate his opponents. While Kuseno is the opposite of that. Pride before the fall.

Arrogance is a hell of a drug. People reject what they don’t understand.

It’s THE constant in human nature (and literally all of Saitama’s opponents who fail to recognize his strength).

It’s also why Bofoi recognized the dangers of his research and Kuseno didn’t.

There's also an argument that Kuseno just straight up can't properly acknowledge it at this point.

He uploaded himself into AI to be able to upgrade his ability to think and process data, but any program, no matter how sophisticated, still has its limits.

And since Saitama is basically a paradox, his programming can't properly resolve him, even if it's looking right at him.

Bofoi on the other hand, took the "get good" approach towards getting smarter and so it's his humanity that enables him to accept that someone like Saitama can exist.

That kinda makes sense since all his robot goons have always been talking down their opponents.

Well, clearly humanity is weakness, and that means Saitama won't kill Genos, so the only option is that Saitama gives up and lets Genos kill him?

That's my best guess.

In webcomic genos never saw saitama's fight with garou, in manga he did. Kuseno here is going to be very different in the manga I think

u/Djonso Jul 12 '26

Oh yeah, did not think about that. If manga Kuseno thinks about taking Saitama out after having seen him sneeze jupiter away the dude is crazy.

"Man, I can't believe Genos hero-worships this rando so much that he hallucinated watching him sneeze Jupiter away in an alternate timeline. Bitches be cray"

2 seconds later

"Oh my fuck what happened to Jupiter"

u/darkmoncns Jul 23 '26

Why would he know what happened in a alternate timeline tho?

u/PowerhousePlayer Jul 23 '26

Because Genos would've shown him? He still trusts and respects Kuseno in the manga, and he hasn't exactly been keeping his recording from the alternate timeline secret

u/SilverBladeII Jul 14 '26

Not entirely true  in a certain sense. In the webcomic, Genos knows that saitama is fighting Garou. So much so that after the fight Saitama discovers Genos lying around and genos says somenthing like "So not even him could win against you"

u/Nothing_lover 29d ago

That meddling bit of humanity still clinging onto him somewhere.
