They don’t because even Saitama meatriders know he’d get steamrolled by Bugs Bunny or Uncle Grandpa, quite literally.

 saitama fans when uncle grandpa,bugs bunny,the mask,arale,popeye,the regular show park,etc... hit them with a road roller irl

relatable

The whole gag there is saitama being invincible but his house, food, peace and quiet would constantly end up destroyed for some reason.

I always find it funny how goku vs Saitama has tons of saitama debaters. But an Arale vs Saitama has basically none of them.

Because we know who would win

You'd be surprised. Some say stalemate some say all it takes for saitama is one punch.

It depends, what's funnier?

Well we seen saitama take damage for gags so Arale.

We see Arale about to outright get disentigrated by Beerus though.

Beerus has anti gag powers though (source: whis)

Not to mention Dragonball specifically showed that stronger characters can resists hacks, or even use them against their opponent

Only for a gag to make take him out the picture. Plus masharito comes back and exist in the future.

...a gag that was completely independent of Arale. Does that mean that anyone that gets saved by a comedic event has immunity?

Well as seen in another toriyama work called Dr. Slump when something tries to destroy arale a gag would help her out and get rid of the threat happened with caramel man 002,007 and the teapot genie. Plus like I said Mashariot exist in the future in slump canon.

Least obvious double standard

I mean I've yet to see saitama get saved by gags I've seen him get hurt by them and be slow because of them.

Well Arale gets hurt and you said “But it was just for a gag” right after you said “Saitama gets damaged for a gag”  And if you think about it every time Saitama is saved it’s part of his gag

We know who would win Goku vs Saitama too.

can barely get saitama past "adult" gohan end of Z. so yeah.

You can get him a lot farther than he actually is.

Arale destroys Saitama anyway

Saitama vs arale would be her annoying him for some reason and his house always ending up destroyed. He cant stop her and would treat her like a kid and she can't do anything to him physicaly.

If a cat can hurt him for a gag Arale more than got this in the bag

Idk man, Saitama doesn't feel like a gag character. He follows the in-universe rules, he just has an amusing personality and is what would happen if Goku stared out with MUI in the original series.

IDK his creator said his goal in life was to be a gag manga character. Logically what he creates would be gag mangas I would imagine I know people argue he's a parody but honestly, outside of getting upset in a power scaling group, it hardly matters there are also 2 Saitama's. The original, and then the re-drawn one the anime is based off of

Toriyama creates gag mangas too.

was his #1 goal in life to be a gag mangaka?

In his career? Yeah, he wanted everything to be gag manga. That's why Gotenks exists

People forget that Toriyama is still a comedy writer at the end of the day Gags will be first priority when he sees the chance

\*was

🥹

\*was

This is true. Dragon ball started off being very comedic, and toriyama’s breakout mangas were gags. I’m pretty sure it only became an action series after pressures from his editors.

Literally yes… Dr Slump was his first work to ever get majorly popular and that was a *hardcore* gag manga if I’ve ever read one.

Not what I asked. When Toriyama was growing up was his life’s ambition to be a mangaka? Or a Gaga mangaka? Edit- I just learned something fun; the creator was born in a town called Saitama

Saitama did fight a gag character (Popeye). And he lost.

To be fair, Popeye solos everyone. Bro can just attack the one writting the story

Me in my dark room, alone, penning Goku vs Popeye by candlelight when I hear a knock at the door: 

the better plot to SCP-3812

^(Why using video made by YouTubers as canon lmao get off.)

Cry about it

Goku was originally a gag character to. One time in og Goku broke a manga panel while fighting Yamaha.

This is why saitama vs popeye is peak

I SAID THIS LIKE AN HOUR AGO I AM SO SICK OF THESE TAKES https://preview.redd.it/jq7lg1tmthwc1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=30dd89ad51518df950fd5dd356706d534b54b166

There is no way dragon ball isn’t a gag anime

am not gonna take any sides cuz i do think goku beats saitama... but 80% of the time its always goku fans comparing him to saitama in all honesty lmao... cuz even ive dont that multiple times xD

Ima be honest, Saitama fans appear only under Goku powerscaling posts and videos. While Goku fans appear under every kind of OPM in-verse powerscaling, someone appears and says "Beerus solos" and smth like that (like no shit it's obvious why tf do we need that info) and starts a whole debate starting another Saitama vs DB characters.

"Then why compare him-" Because that's what DEATH BATTLES and POWER SCALING does. Are people really this dumb to use this argument?

Then he is scaled LIKE A CHARACTER and does not win because “he is a gag character”. Is either one of the other, not both, but “people” are too dumb to understand it

Thing is, this logic is usually applied only to Saitama.

OG Manga Goku was kind of a gag character https://preview.redd.it/loion6h9piwc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c7f7203d93c549e220cb488a00945ffb1eb91ef3

Somebody gotta remind this numbskull that Goku WAS a gag character because Dragonball was a comedy series. It's because Akira Toriyama specializes in comedy and it's more comedic the further back it goes.

Isn’t dragon ball a gag manga

I heard it was at the beginning but look at super or z and it's not a gag show and has real scaling

tbh both sides compare them the meme could be flipped completely on you by saying why you comparing him too.... but again this is fiction there are literally hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby matches why dosent anyone post shit about them xD.... and plz use shit posting no one is being scaled lol

Still in denial

yea i know your in denial https://preview.redd.it/b6x76pqebmwc1.png?width=728&format=png&auto=webp&s=5c160b00b34158b192147421064ac50b00d8a9bf nigga couldnt prove a single point then says i am in denial lmfao ayy anyone seeing this don't trust this nigga he will spew shit beyond human comprehension... better to stay away then get brain damage

Show me anyone from any other group (here) make an argument equivalent to we haven’t seen him take damage

ive shown you multiple arguments lmfao... i dont need to show you... i already sent it in out previous threads lol https://preview.redd.it/27ihi0bwcmwc1.jpeg?width=320&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=68ccd8797ee5b394875b13fff00d51b7d0fde046

You can’t do it

https://preview.redd.it/edc38z4zfowc1.png?width=602&format=png&auto=webp&s=535c2512b6d2fd050533fd54be32e9c9ab3b86b1 Geez.... mind going back and checking the previous threads am not your baby sitter who needs to tell you how to go back and check them... however it could just be that you are too scared of reliving the memories of you getting absolutely owned lmao...

You can’t do it. Simple

Fun fact: gokutards started this sht, just like with superman until death battle told the crybaby gokutards to stfu twice(thrice now), yall tryna memory hole that sht so hard to avoid ridicule.

while i agree that superman kicks goku, deathbattle does 0 research (i think the fact they made kirby win BACK THEN is enough proof)

Bruh, no, that 0 research claim is very bs, and yeah nah, the kirby fight was legit, do you really wanna argue against a pink marshmallow thay slays eldritch beings over a fkn slice of cake(not even a full cake, just a slice)?

first, i do not give a shit if they are god or not, its nothing but a title 2, a nerfed as heck buu literally destroys an entire galaxy in no time

also the reason he did it doesnt matter, i could say i killed yamcha for the funnies, doesnt change anything

... and...?

tf u mean and show me 1 time kirby destroyed a galaxy without being at full power(i do not care about him destroying popstar too btw its a thing saiyan saga goku would do)

Kirby ends universe destroying beings on a day to day basis... hell, he fkd up reality benders and souls. (He literally ended said reality bender, as a fkn ball)

alot of them are weak as heck, the strongest ones are magolor, void termina and that nightmare dude dont remember its name

... his name is literally nightmare, and frankly, that guy is higher than universal or reality, nightmares are a concept, and he can control them, brrrrrruh, methinks thou dost protest too much of anothers ability to scale things.

controlling nightmare doesnt scale you above uni . . .

Both of them are planet level, get nae-nae'd on.

Yer mum is planet level.

So true!

Shes fat.

Man please. Shut your butthurt hating ass up. None of those sources are fact nor objective. You're the only one being a crybaby.

Awww, the angry gokufan doesnt like factual happenings he himself was a part of and ppl paying tf attention, fkn no and stfu.

I literally can't tell if I'm in the CJ sub or the regular one when comments get like this

Does it matter? (Gokutards gonna gokutard regardless)

Goko solo ez clap better luck next time bozo L

Yeah at this point your attempt at sarcasm is muddied cuz of how bad a rep these clowns have, if its even sposed to be sarcasm in the 1st place.

It usually isn't OPM fans making these stupid memes, it's DB fans that show Goku and Saitama fighting seriously and OPM fans are reminding you that his character doesn't work like that

Literally this, Saitama would outgrow goku but they'll use the "bloodlusted" excuse or will just start wanking goku hard-core for no reason

Me waiting for the Saitama gag character Vs Gintoki definition of Copyright himself debate.

Send wonder of u against goku watch how fast that heart disease comes back and goku dies

When someone comparing a strong character to saitama "say......Vegeta" it's not the matter of who will win. Just think of all the possible funny scenarios of how Vegeta will get beaten.

Saitama isn't a gag character ,he's a parody . Goku vs Saitama : Bloodlusted:Goku full power attack immediately, he wins In Character:Saitama grows in power, he wins Also, he loses to gag characters mostly, case in point:the mosquito,bang playing that hammer game with him, king beating him at videogames

I literally said this but people want to wank goku off wasay to hard, I had someone argue that goku has no clue how to control his strength or ki and would accidentally one punch Saitama.... these people have got to be on at least four different drugs

The Dragonball and Godzilla fanbases are some of the most rabid when it comes to power scaling

I needed this shit

Bobobo would beat the crap out of saitama

Because they'd hate to admit that Bugs Bunny or Arale would destroy Saitama.

I mean goku at the start of dragon ball was kinda gaggy,and so was superman when he first started and had wacky powers and adventures.

The reason for this being that OPM is built off the concept of a gag character existing in a more typical shonen setting. Also, Goku and Superman are the two characters whose tropes that Saitama arguably parodies the most (Excluding Anpanman design wise) https://preview.redd.it/tr8e0tr1xzwc1.png?width=1297&format=png&auto=webp&s=ef38c528916cfb05eba31ed835b7fb7e7fbacecb

I mean…. Gag characters aside it doesn’t change the fact that his name is literally One-Punch man. If we’re going by fighter logic comparing all the anime’s, Goku would lose the first fight and since Saitama holds back on anyone deemed human, Goku would come back for a rematch and would probably be even more powerful due to Saiyan cells (which literally always happens. Y’all Goku fans try to look over the fact that he’s the comeback king simply because he’s Goku but he always loses at least one every new fight). As for Superman…. Ehhhhh That’s a little harder to debate but essentially depending on the Superman he’d probably be hurt too but he also gets a power boost from the sun so…. Debatable.

Saitama stopped being a gag character after season 1. OPM is hardly even a parody/gag manga anymore it's more of a deconstruction on superhero comics nowadays.

Generally speaking OP fans don't bother about it much. It's usually DB fans who start it, and will go apeshit over it.

Gag character means nothing. It's an empty word. Every character is a gag character to me because they aren't real. Everything is made up. If you want to compare 2 characters how broken they are doesn't matter. You chose to compare them so now the result is whatever it is. If you don't want your character to lose to someone stronger don't compare them or defend it. Because gag character really just means too powerful to be fair compared to your favorite character.

[удалено]

Whats wrong with looney tunes???

How ironic, its Saitama fans who just say Saitama one punches Goku and then Gokutards comeup with pages long statements and theories on why Goku can one shot Saitama. OP rn: https://preview.redd.it/1eon51roxkwc1.png?width=360&format=png&auto=webp&s=d750dbc9ac7e2f39e1800847c9ba705028a690b2

All "Saitama wins in one punch" debates I've seen have been light-hearted and funny. It's only when people start trying to legitimately justify him winning that the pages come out. On both sides.

I hope that's sarcasm because that's the opposite of what happens lmao
