    You know, if you don't like it, you can just not watch it.

    The series is not going to change no matter how much you complain about how it doesn't satisfy you. There are three identical shonen series this season that can satisfy your concerns expressed here.

    I thought Heavy Object was shit and I dropped it on the first episode. Were there redeeming factors in that series? Maybe, if very few. But I'm not going to pretend it is going to shift into more standard mecha fare.

    Stop your smug act NOW.

    I never said I donīt like this anime. I donīt like that one aspect of it.
    And unless you spoiled me something, we still donīt know if weīll maybe get a logical explanation one day. After all, since some villains grow curious of Saitama, theyīll want to analyze him, take cell samples and stuff.

    It's one thing to complain about a shitty show being shit (it's even fun sometimes) or repeatedly attacking the flaws of a series that takes itself far too seriously.

    You're criticizing the central gag of a series that is a known satire as not being serious enough. A change that would result in making a satire series no longer a satire.

    You don't like, appreciate, or understand satire. We get it. We established this back on page 3.

    Bitching about your hopes and dreams that this series will jump the shark and become a serious version of what it is lampooning is deeply flawed on a fundamental basis. You're seriously better off finding something else if this offends you to such a degree that you have to carry on for two additional pages about how it doesn't satisfy you.

    I realize that in reviewing the discussion on page 3, that I've repeated everything I said there over again. The difference is that I was polite about it then. I'm not now.

    Extremely condescending attitude. Makes me a little sad. But Iīm not one to resort to insults and badmouthing my debate partner, so Iīll try once again: You paint a picture as if I constantly barge into this thread to bitch about the samt thing. That is not true. As I mentioned in my posting about the latest episode, I touched on the subject again, because Genos touched on it again, too. I already forgot the specific scene, but there was one where Genos wondered about Saitamaīs powerīs source again. That made me hopeful that weīd eventually get an explanation after all.

    Now, what you did was going into full "letīs insult MFauli for complaining again, sigh"-mode, even when that was never a truth in any of all universes. I can promise you that you wonīt hear me mention Saitamaīs powerīs source next week if there is no reason for it. That is all.
