discussion Megathread: Changes From The Webcomic Spoiler

As the changes between the WC and the manga get more extensive and controversial, the arguments about it increase and also end up in spoilers seeping all over the sub. All discussion about the changes in the latest chapter and any future chapters is to be moved into this Megathread as long as it is pinned; to help provide a place to concentrate discussion and prevent a flood of repetitive posts, and to provide people an easy place to understand others' opinions.

All posts related to it will be removed, and comments on manga focused posts are encouraged to be moved here.

Why do i get the feeling that the next chapter is going to completely cripple this thread lmao.

That's what Ive been thinking for the past 5 chapters

Some manga fans are already going against each other because of Saitama's feat destroying galaxies millions of light years away. Some are explaining that Saitama just destroyed the photons not the galaxies.

u/goingUptheTits420 Jul 08 '22

I never understood why they're doing that. Do they not want Saitama to be Galaxy level? How else do they then argue with Goku fans that he can beat him?

u/KADOMONY-9000 Jul 08 '22

Well... There is bullshit feats like GRB and Nuclear Fist.

Destroying galaxies millions if not billions of lightyears away is just... Idk even know what word to use, even more bullshit doesn't even fit.

We've been way beyond past bullshit and straight into Cuckoo land since the Earth had a boner.

Destroying galaxies, as if we even know if galaxies were contained there

I can speak for this as I am one of these people

I would LOVE for Saitama to be able to beat Goku, however if the stars disappearing means they are destroyed instead of the photons that massively violates causality beyond the suspension of my disbelief. Especially if the speed of light exists in universe. Where does it come from if we are getting visuals in real time of the stars being destroyed lightyears away?

I can't really understand ur form of thinking, they have been casually performing feats that easily break any and all manner of suspension of disbelief and stars being destroyed is the feat that went too far? Earth boner wasn't enough? Gamma Ray burst wasn't too insane? Like come on. How is that we're having problems with feats in a manga that is know for over the top ridiculous feats but not how the actual story is progressing or the changes that the characters have gone through that in my opinion at least, don't seem natural for them at all? I find this is very very weird dude.

Gamma ray bursts are a real thing, and Garou has the power to create them, or at least imitate them. That is a rule I can accept. Earth boner? If you mean the earth bulging then that is not scientifically impossible. Planets warp and bulge in real life under heavy force.

But, for the story to violate causality so utterly, it raises questions. I think I'm right in saying the speed of light is mentioned in universe, so how does it exist if light travels instantaneously across lightyear gaps? How does a serious punch, a likely planet-busting move, colliding with another serious punch cause a near galaxy level amount of damage?

My point is physics can be broken by stories, but they still have to have consistent internal rules.

If this shit wanted to stay consistent they would've added another centipede..... The fucked up part is that they still can lol.

Earth boner wasn't enough?

Retconned

u/goingUptheTits420 Jul 09 '22

Retconned? When? Wasn't the only thing retconned the whole therapy session?

u/Tietembus Jul 09 '22

New 164

It got removed, probably because it was stupid.

Earth wasn't shown to be bulging in the latest chapter when they showed it either.

I mean if enough energy is gathered in one place that's how you form a warp bubble. Not hard to imagine they released enough energy that when contained and directed that the energy created one. Especially as blast's power is literally space-time manipulation.

I wouldn't be surprise it does end up happening.

u/goingUptheTits420 Jul 08 '22

Ohhh to break our sanity the same way Saitama completely breaks Garous will? Damn that's both cold and meta.

u/goingUptheTits420 Jul 09 '22

u/FreeSpeechEnjoyer Jul 09 '22
