Considering the amount of episodes left (6) and the amount of chapters there are before boros arc it seems like there is no way we anime is going to make it to boros arc.

EDIT: Seems like I was wrong and anime is going to end on boros arc.

So basically we are at the 1st half of chapter 23 which means that the ep 12 should end at chapter 46 , mathematically speaking ofc but few next chapters are mostly pages with the character and environment animations. Imo rate of chapter coverage that is in in the anime should definately last till the boros arc and it is really likely that the anime will end after boros fight and some dialogues which will probably be the best thing that could happen consiedering that there probably will be a second season.

No it won't not enough episodes, my guess is they'll finish with the sea king.

Wrong, so wrong.
First of all we are basically at chapter 20. Second of all first chapters were really short around 20 pages. While for example chapter 21 is +100 pages. We can't make in any way to boros arc if everything from manga is put to anime and if there are only 12 episodes.

I hope your all wrong about it not being in it. since, the boros arc would be a good place to end the season. Maybe they will cut some parts out or have 13 episodes. the final episode being the saitama vs boros part. madhouse is not known for doing season 2 of animes. it would be a huge disapointment if they didn't end after boros arc.

I just checked and before boros arc there are around 500 pages left.. and one episode takes a bit under 100 pages. So it seems like anime is going to end Sea King arc.

Tho it kinda seems a bit weird as then they are going to start from boros arc in 2nd season (if there will be 2nd season). I just feel like best way would be that whole boros arc is in season 1 and then season 2 could focus on garou.

I also checked chapters that have something to do with boros = around 300.

So it is probably going to take 3 episodes for boros arc.

the punch he did at the end of the opening looks like the one he used on boros, so yeah there's a high chance

Chill_ just (best pun) chill. Counting every page my not be a good idea since the madhouse staff can cut some things out ( mby since they haven't cut almost a thing ) and make the boros arc happen. #Believe

Considering that all S Class heroes have all been given a seiyuu (some of them getting early screen time already), I am certain that they can do up to Boros arc as OPM anime pacing is very fast.

if you look at the preview of next episode, they condensed the entire meteor story AND aftermath to one episode.
after that there isn't much to the next 5 episodes, there's only the sea king arc, and boros arc, with very little to no filler between, and I highly doubt that sea king arc will take 5 episodes, I say 1 episode for meteor and aftermath, 2 for sea king, and maybe 3 for boros.
so yeah, I can say with confidence that they will do boros.
also page count is not a good counter, since the next few arc in the manga have a very inflated page count (entire chapters dedicated to robot landing) that can be easily condensed into much shorter anime form

Looks like next episode will be Meteor arc entirely, so we have 5 episodes left for Seaking + Boros. I think they can end it there nicely.

Well...

one thing to keep in mind is that the anime is adapting the physical volume version of events, not the original digital-magazine chapters. They're mostly the same up to this point, aside for Sonic's first fight, but they start deviating a lot from the next chapter onwards in terms of length.

Not to mention the mess regard chapters orders as pages from the two versions frequently get mixed together on most scanlation sites. there's also straight up re-draws of a few chapters due to miscommunication between Murata and ONE on what was supposed to happen.

They could even do the boros arc in 2 episodes if they wanted.

I don't get how people think it will end before boros...

+1

I don't know how people are thinking this is going to end with Sea King, only a climax like the Boros fight can make justice to a season like this, everything else will be meh.

That's probably what the OVA is going to be about actually.

Imo there is no way we won't get boros this season, only question i have is if it will end at boros or not.

As before, unless they start adding in a bunch of the side-story chapters, it'll go past King, possibly ending on Blizzard.

A lot of people over estimate how long the boros arc is because of most scanlation sites having BOTH the digital and physical versions of the mid-fight chapter (which are very different aside for a few lines and scenes) between the intro and ending chapters, even though there's an obvious repeat of several scenes and lines that should've made it obvious they weren't part of the same continuity.

the OVA is a confirmed completely anime original side-story, and just based on the title sounds like it has something to do with Sonic between Sea King and Blizzard arcs.

I don't mind if we don't see Boros arc as long as Madhouse stays faithful to the manga. There are extra manga chapters and they may put it in the anime as a sort of "filler" so the season will end on Sea King. Like

Well, King already´s got a VA and his debut in the manga happened just after the end of the boros arc. I bet they will end the season with a big "King is actually the strongest dude in the world" cliffhanger.

Anime ended beautifully, there are still some loose ends but you can jump straight into the manga from the end of the anime to "Chapter 37 King".
