imo, all citizen all ready moving far away from meteor landing site, but they still havent gone away from city Z, hence they can still see the meteor clearly from the sky. When Saitama punch the meteor, its losing the speed and impact power so the debris hit just around its landing site where all of the ciziten has gone from.
the 3 days later time skip, the citizen came back to check their house and stuff thats why no one died in that event.

It was just plot armor and dumb luck that no one died. In the manga, the meteor pieces were falling like 3-5 meters away from the panicking civilians.

OST was dope and finally got to see Bang hopefully Garou appears.

RayAdha said:
A bit surprising Bang knows how powerful Saitama is. He somewhat reminds me of Zeno Zoldyck.

Before that his acting was on very good level. So, i suppose, this scene have some reasons to put up this tone of voice. For me, this tone of voice, that he put up in ep.7 reminded me of Tanaka Mayumi voice. Have some Luffy vibes.

I think people fail to realize that his reaction was childish like style "Shut up, don't piss me off!" type instead of really seriously angry. For some reason they expected a very serious angry voice but he was just throwing a tantrum to being accused really.

Plot armor so that Saitama can say the damage was minimized. In the end it doesn't really matter millions of people already died in the series and there will be more casualties in the future.

I was like oh no they're gonna crush Saitaima's spirit! and then I remembered he's a hero only for fun. Saitama FTW!

Not really...

He only did it for fun at first, but he then started to want to become popular and have people know him, it's why he joined the Hero Association in the first place. (and why he was serious during the Hero Tests, else he'll just skim through it like it doesn't even matter if he's last)

You wouldn't join into an organization if you're only in it for Fun... only for Fun means you don't give a shit if people know you or not.

But Saitama WANTS people to know him. (if you're in it for rewards, it's not for fun anymore)



It's like someone playing a game for Fun. Versus someone playing a game for World Championship...

if you play for Fun, you wouldn't care if you were first or last, you just want to have Fun, and people across the world wouldn't know a thing about you because you don't promote yourself to them or head onto Media Reports (like Twitch).

while the person that's aiming for Rank would play seriously to be the best and have people all over the world know him/her. (like Twitch)

Not really, most of the people had evacuated from the point of impact. The point was that had the meteor impacted it would have destroyed a much much larger area, so large that it would have still killed most of the people evacuated. Saitama reduced the radius of damage by enough that the evacuation was successful.

Now of course in reality lots of people would have stayed behind and so people would have died, but in general Saitama probably reduced the degree of devastation by a factor of a million.

so much fuel for saitama/genos fanfics :s

It's time to stir up some shit:

OPM goes from making fun of superhero/animanga tropes, to abusing the shit out of them in the very next scene: at first, it cuts off the old guy's monologue about his powers by making Genos go away immediately (I thought it was parodying the usual clichè where people just stand around and talk even though there's an emergency to take care of), and then, it proceeds to play the same clichè completely straight, and it even adds the battle-shonen 30-seconds-turn-into-2-minutes trope. After that, there's this stupid comedic sketch about Genos pushing back the meteor, which is horribly out of place in a really serious scene like that one. Am I meant to care about what's happening or not? It's jarring.

The second half was even worse: I'm tired of seeing those throwaway characters who shout all their (cheesy) lines and clearly don't have a single chance of doing anything against Saitama (but the anime still shows him destroying them, ahhaha, so new, so unexpected). My brain just disconnects as soon as I see one of those guys show up on screen, and they take up a ridiculous amount of time with their generic copy-pasted dialogues.
The controversy surrounding Saitama is retarded: there were 3 S-class heroes who clearly saw what happened, and 2 of them look really honorable, why doesn't the association know exactly what happened with the meteor? How the hell do they collect information, if not by asking the heroes who were there? Why would they think that the S-class heroes played a big part in destroying the meteor?
The people who showed up at the scene with the Tank-top fodder were hilarious: why the fuck would you blame Saitama? It makes NO SENSE. Even if some retards were to start gossiping about him, the vast majority of people would worship him for saving their lives. Also, why does no one react when Genos shows up? Isn't he the 5th most popular hero? Didn't he just contribute to saving the city, 3 days earlier?
When Saitama snaps, his voice acting is teeeeeeerrible, it's hard to feel anything for him, even if the stupidity of the circumstances didn't already take the viewer out of the experience.

I thought that maybe I wasn't supposed to take this seriously, but then the episode ends with a supposedly emotional scene where the 2 MCs bond thanks to the previous events, lol.
