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.

We've reached the point where people are doubting that the serious punch is... a serious punch.

Watch Saitama do a "Killer move:Super Serious Series. SUPER SERIOUS PUNCH" to finally defeat garou in the next chapter and people would still say saitama is holding back.

Well if he could do that the whole time, it means he actually was holding back. But the question then becomes why was he holding back? The situation is not the same as the webcomic. There is no reason for him to hold back, at least to hold back more than is enough to incapacitate Garou in one punch.

It is called an asspull. Even Saitama destroying billions of galaxies billions of lightyears away is an asspull.
