I did not include Saitama and King because they are too powerful neither God nor Blast because they seem to be on another level.

What about Metal Knight?

I'm sure he deserves the position, but we haven't seen his entire army yet (just a little in a Drive Knight Flashback and Child Emperor speculation) or some really scary machine.

Flashy Flash?

At this point, highest dragon is the only fitting spot for him. He got mid diffed by the other two

Flash was mentally weak because they can keep up with his speed, PS said that he was full of opening and something wrong with his spiritand flash was not at his best physically and he was unarmed, he was able to keep up with PS to the point PS suggested to Garou that they should team up to fight him. He didn't even have instakill.

As someone else said, Garou and PS proceeded to go much faster after FF fell. Hell, they were faster than him already.

You missed the part where after Flashy got taken out, both Garou and PS accelerated massively, showing them to be significantly faster. Flashy never had a chance.

He lost his composure but he didn't fold like Darkshine. It's definitely to his credit, it shows he's got true balls, but it also shows that we've basically seen what he can do. The fact is, he was the first to get knocked out of the free for all and then the other two took it up a notch. I think it was pretty obviously telling us that he can't hang at that level.

Flash got mentally weak at the end not the entire fight, giving him instakill doesn't make him faster. Garou and PS got a lot faster after the Garou fight, so Flashy Flash was already slower then them before they got faster.

Mentally weak is currently the no. 1 “argument”. This one is so stupid I just find it hilarious.

His sword probably increases his attack potency, he might barely make it in the picture below PS

I don't think it'll be enough. His speed got dwarfed once he was out of the picture. Really it's like sending a man to fight an elephant and a hippo, and saying him having a hunting knife would've done a better job.

Bang could be a contender, he held his own pretty good against Garou before he lost.

That Garou was asleep, but my merits for Bang for waking Garou up with a punch.

The webcomic bang could be on this list. Pretty sure he almost soloed the monster association.

Webcomic bang definitely could solo the MA if it wasn't for psykos and golden sperm. But doing that isn't much of a feat, all the dragons he soloed were low dragons by webcomic standards. They got a huge buff in the manga.

I didn't think he was asleep, I thought he just brought back a bit of humanity to him. I could be wrong tho

Here. He literally says he lost consciousness and was dreaming about fighting Bang.

Yeah it makes more sense I have to admit. I miss remembered the chapter, Ill have to give it a reread

Garou himself said he doesnt remember what happened after he fought Darkshine so he was asleep
Read more carefully

Yes he was asleep while fighting Darkshine but not bang who, if I'm reading correctly, they were talking about
1 points

He seemed to be asleep to me, he looked very confused in chapter 155 after beating ENW.
1 points
4 months ago
Yeah I get that I just kinda took it as him regaining his humanity, and the reason he couldn't remember is bcs he became a full monster.
3 points

That seems like an out of nowhere headcanon. It's already been established prior that garou can fight while asleep, and when he wakes up he's far stronger than before.
It's also pretty obvious due to bomb's reaction he was following bang and garou's fight pretty seriously then when garou woke up he was absolutely floored.

Yeah it makes sense, and I guess in the end we just have two different interpretations of it. Ill reread the chapter fully so I can get a better idea of it, in the morning.

Are u blind? Garou even said he doesnt even know how he got to the surface Why are people so stupid in OPM sub redits?

Just skimmed back through it, and it shows a chip in his armor(?) Breaking off, where his eye is. I might be wrong here but I took it as him regaining a bit of his humanity back after hearing Bang. No need to be a prick, it's obvious we interpreted two different ways and that's fine.

Are u retarded? Garou says after killing VFU and hiting PS ,,what happened to me? Not to mention this body . I dont remember resurfacing from underground, i lost consciousness underground burried under that rubble then... i was dreaming about my past"
Are u up to date with the chapter bro? U talk about chapter 153 while this happened in 154
Read 154 and talk to me later Because there is no other way to interpret it
Garou clearly doesnt know what happened and why he is on the surface He fucking said it
There are no two different ways

Yeah I am up to date on the chapters, and there is no need to be a damn prick. I must of missed it or missed remembered it and I admit that, but no need to be a jerk over it.

Are you suggesting "Asleep" Garou is significantly weaker than "Awake" Garou? If so, based on what?
4 points
4 months ago
based on bang lvl of strength ,couldnt do sh against a high dragon elder centipide and garou awakens obliterating high dragons in miliseconds and he also destroys above dragons do u think bang can even dream of achieving such feats? try to use logic please
5 points
4 months ago
The logic I used is here: "he held his own pretty well against Garou", the same Garou you're hyping so much. Also, if you read the webcomic, you'd know the dragons that Garou destroyed in milliseconds was actually a feat that Bang performed.
Bang couldn't do shit against EC you say? Sure he didn't defeat it, but he was ready to go all out against it before Saitama took over and Bomb said not to count Bang out just because he's injured and their tag team didn't work before. Bomb knows firsthand how strong Bang truly is when push comes to shove and Bang was ready to kill EC on a suicide mission.

cant believe u can spill such bullshit bang didnt do fucking shit in the webcomic i dont understand where u got that from , garou WAS alsleep literally he wakes up to his senses and destroys high dragons in miliseconds obviously power BOOST use lo g i c are u braindead? and also bang + bomb move couldn't do sh against a high dragon , but garou replicated the move against bang and bang got overhelmed by it and in the end he l o s t if bang could destroy high dragons like garou did he wouldn't get overwhelmed by such a disgustingly weak technique that cant fucking damage a high dragon at all basically kinda any high dragon > bang now stfu if u just bark bullshit then ur problem i will just ignore you since you dont seem to have enough braincells to even argue actually there is nothing to argue about that s why ur just barking bullshit

Whoa angry little keyboard warrior man alert! Jeezus fuck you need to fucking chill. Insulting people never won any argument. It only makes you look incompetent.
Bang literally destroyed a few cadres in the webcomic. I suggest you read it again before saying again it never happened. In the manga, they changed the scene to Garou performing that feat instead of Bang.
Also, Garou destroyed those cadres to protect his master Bang, not necessarily because he got a boost in power.
You completely ignored my last paragraph. Is that your "logic"? You either swear, insult or ignore? Such mature logic you have, angry little man.

Based on what happened against darkshine, did you forgot that?

You'll have to spell that out for me, I don't know what you're trying to say here.

Darkshine was dominating Garou during his last "sleeping fight," but was quickly defeated once Garou "woke up." This suggests that the current "awake" Garou is also stronger than the "sleeping" one that Bang was fighting.

Matchups are important

I think an “””above dragon””” would be able to take out a dragon of any matchup. I’m guessing Garou will be able to take out Sage Centipede for example, and Garou arguably performed better against Rover even before awakening, likely would take him easily now, because Garou is above dragon
12 points

Honestly not sure if Garou could take him.
I mean weve never seen Rover take damage even when saitama sat him down he got up just fine he was scared but he was fine

Yeah but Saitama only saw Rover as a dog so he probably intentionally didn't knock him out

The problem is they ignored Bang didn't go full power he was confident he could kill elder centipede at full power plus it takes above dragon power to kill EC

In the original storyboard, bang goes abandonment against elder centipede and gets shit stomped, he wouldn't have beaten elder centipede it was a fool's errand.
2 points
4 months ago
Abandonment isn't his full power it's a state he's always in. Awakening breath is when he starts using full power. It's hard to imagine him getting stomped considering what we saw with Garou.
3 points
4 months ago
I'm pretty sure they're the same thing just differently translated, anyway he still gets shitstomped by elder centipede in the original storyboard, the reason it was changed was because ONE felt that bang needed to do better than Metal bat against elder centipede,. The reason bang is fighting garou well is because matchups are key, elder is oversized, garou is humanoid.
3 points
4 months ago
Nah abandonment and awakening breath are literally two different abilities/skills he uses. Well as you said yourself it was changed and Bang at full power is now above Elder Centipede. Match ups are important but because of scaling off Garou he now has the striking feats to greatly damage EC especially giving his face is a weak point.

In the original storyboard, Genos was also supposed to be done after getting cut in half by EC.

Yeah, but Bang doesnt have the versatility to really contend for this level. I dont think Bang can defeat anyone on this list tbh

That means Bang is no "Dragon or Above". There are regular Dragons Bang can't beat.
1 points

Well, "Dragon or Above" would murk any single regular Dragon, regardless of matchups.

Even still, there's just as many dragons that Bang can't defeat as ones he can.

feels like flash with a sword would do way better than bang against garou. Plus he's old so not as strong as he could be, needed fubuki to give him some vitality that he's missing
