Do you guys think Saitama can beat the entire DBZ canon universe?
I think if he hits his max potential, he can.

Theoretically it also could be that IS may be worried that the new characters they're adding may not be popular enough to carry a banner, so they're adding the alts as 'safe' additions to keep fans interested. With that said, even in that case it'd be a strange choice since characters like Myrrh/L'arachel and the Morgans are popular characters and can easily get fans of their games interested without support.
To some extent, it's surprising, yet unsurprising that IS hasn't tried the Reinhardt method with another not-so-popular character. The idea of giving an unknown character a whole lot of powerful skills and stats to compliment them and seeing how popular they'd get with the players for their skills and "Tier". This was how Reinhardt went from a guy nobody really knew except those who played through all of Thracia to the Top 5 Males. So it's rather interesting how IS hasn't tried this theory with another unknown character, as it could help make lesser known characters more popular like it did Reinhardt.

But at the same time, it's understandable that they probably don't want to try considering after it was established that Reinhardt and Brave Lyn were the most dangerous threats in the Arena that people practically had to keep a counter for both of them on their team, even IS was making counters after counters to deal with both of them and trying to make alot of different skills, like the Tactics skills and the Armor exclusive skills, to try and get people to play something other than Horse Emblem. They probably don't want to potentially release a incredibly good character that they may have to start working on counters and whatnot again.

Ironically, Reinhardt's Sword form has probably made Horse Emblem dangerous again considering Sword Reinhardt can deal with the counters that threaten both Brave Lyn and regular Reinhardt. So maybe it's just Reinhardt's nature to cause shifts in the balance.

Saitama can beat them, one punch is actually one KO.
Just because he can doesn't mean he'll succeed.

You gonna know the differences between characters, look at their abilities and see from an unbiased look who would kick who's ass.

Saitama could fare well against most of the cast, but the second he decides to fight someone like Beerus is the moment he could actually lose if he's not serious from the get-go.

Saitama did beat the best warrior in the galaxy once. Plus he can go really fast at light speed and punch them from behind.

Here's your problem with this...

He did beat the best warrior in the galaxy... but that's relative to the One Punch Man series. You can't simply assume that the best warrior in OPM's galaxy is also going to be the best warrior in Dragon Ball's galaxy. It's basically comparing apples with oranges.

And considering there's a lot of people in Dragon Ball who specializes in destroying entire worlds... Yeah, the power levels are pretty differrent.

Saitama's whole thing is that he's a parody of characters like Superman and Goku.
That's why any scenario involving him fighting someone is meaningless. He wins by being a parody.

I feel like Saitama doesn't really work in these "who would win?" scenarios because he's a gag character that comes from a gag manga where the punchline (no pun intended) is that he finishes everyone off with a single punch.

But that means he can beat anyone with a punch.... :troll:

I am just kidding. Good point.

Who is the most powerful character in fiction?

Me: I should save my feathers in case I pull more Chrom/Virion/Merric/Marth/Caeda/Mae/Frederick so I can merge them.

Also Me: Slaying Edge Bonfire Draug sounds really fun.

Wait.... if Saitama's joke is he kills anyone with one punch, he can kill anyone with one punch. Including the Hakai.

The Hakai is actually a technique that's not unlike Saitama's punches, but dialed up to eleven because it straight up destroys whoever is struck by it from existence, leaving no trace they were ever there.

But Beerus would probably be too lazy to use it, soooooooo...

My thought would be that Beerus lets the hit get in or dodges it, but the second he's punched, which wouldn't kill him anyway, he'd use Hakai because the punch would hurt like hell even then.

That sounds like a Beerus thing to do.

But how is the battle set up?

Saitama took the last cocktail sausage? :troll:

Hakai got nerfed pretty hard later on.

Vegeta tanked all of Toppo's Hakai attempts, but then again, he was just a GoD candidate so you could make the argument that he was weaker than Beerus (which he is).

But also, Beerus admitted Goku surpassed him by the end of Super. So if Vegeta could tank Hakai, Goku probably can too.

So what you're saying is that Goku might be as powerful as someone who was designed as a parody of himself? :troll:

It worked with Buu, did it not? XD
Why do you think I asked? XD

A species of Beetles called "Trilobite Beetles"

This is strange and interesting. They don't look like beetles, but they are

Definitely new bug pokemon

The only character Saitama can't beat is Merlinus, as I estabilished in a past post, Merlinus is not only the most powerful character in the FEverse, but also out of all possible universes.
In this essay I will

Jesus Christ put that under a spoiler.

Swole Spider was one thing but "vaguely phallic nightmare hellbeast" is another.

Yes, please spoiler those kinds of images. People are squeamish. I mean, I found the spider cute and have no issue with the other one, but that doesn't mean everybody is the same. You should always be conscious of others. :)
