Anime watchers, what do you think of Saitama in one punch man is he to op (overpowered) ?

[Saggitariusdiva]

Personally I think the guy's is to op like he just goes bam one punch and he defeats all of them if he was weaker and lost some fights it'll make sense honestly look at Goku for example he has lost some fights and a character like Saitama that's so op would be better in a world with Magic not superheroes.

I think his struggle to find a worthy opponent is what makes him interesting. As well as the fact that he is so much stronger than all the other super heroes and is still ranked so low. It is an interesting take on how society is; where the best and most skilled people don't always get recognized for their accomplishments and abilities.

Thats the idea of the show.

[Saggitariusdiva]

But do you agree that it makes it boring

[Astarlessnightsky]

No, the first few episodes are quick and over really fast, but one created the webcomic only to test a new drawing programm, the story starts with season two, maybe the alien attack arc at the end of season 1.

The Demon king arc, where you have all heroes involved. And Saitama is more complex than just his super strength.

Its not boring, if you compare it to something in the other extreme like Dragon Ball, where fights takes entire seasons, which is more boring. As these don't progress the story.

Lol I actually prefer Dragon ball to one punch man

[Astarlessnightsky]

Thats your personal choice and preference.

And reading the Dragon Ball Manga is much better than watching the Anime, in my opinion.

The point of Saitama is that he’s too strong. His strength is humor-based like Squirrel Girl, meaning he’s as strong as he needs to be in order for it to be funny. If you don’t like it, that’s the point. He longs for someone to meet him on his level physically and no one can and that’s what makes it so funny. If that’s not your kind of humor, then don’t watch it.

Too late already watched it summer last year.
Me and some of my friends my arguing that he's to op that's why I asked

[CrabCakes11]

I think the show is supposed to be humorous and that the concept of a superhero that’s extremely over powered is well done in the show

[Saggitariusdiva]

He's too overpowered😭😭
I'm sure he could even beat Goku if he's able to land like a punch a maybe two

[Zenpanda]

That's the whole joke, much like Mash from Mashle or Anos from the misfit of demonking academy.
They're op because it's funny how op they are.

[Saggitariusdiva]

Mash is better because he gets stronger but Saitama doesn't he's so freaking strong he doesn't even need to

[Zenpanda]

True, but once again it's pretty much a parody show. So it's one big joke. Yes, he is way too overpowered, but that's the point.
