Hoooo poo poo, this is going to be good. It was only a matter of time before Tatsumaki and Saitama inevitably came to blows. She is the closest thing to someone on his level we've seen in the entire comic, possibly even including Garou.
Actually, Lord Boros was potentially the strongest being in the universe at that point in time and i'd peg him as the strongest character in the series (besides Saitama) before Garou had his showdown with Saitama. Boros vs Tatsumaki would not have even been a fight to be honest, this was a guy on Frieza level. In the Murata comic this is even more the case as he was even more ridiculous there, he punched Saitama to the moon and then he survived being literally torn to pieces.

She'll become increasingly angry as he ignores her. Like, really angry. This is as far as the battle will go.

Waiting for the reveal that Tatsumaki got her power by doing the ESPer equivalent of Saitama's training regimen. Like, reading 100 books, writing 100 essays, and editing 100 newspaper articles, every single day for 3 years.

If not this, then Saitama will get kind of annoyed by her.

The only thing is if Tatsumaki and Saitama fight, she might get knocked down a peg and actually have to train to get stronger. It just seems like she's never worked on her abilities, it's just been that strong. Fubuki at least had to train her ability so she could compete with the overbearing power of Tatsumaki which gave her the ability to actually defeat Psykos.

I think it would be a good thing for them to fight, honestly.

Thing is that it's not really a fight. Saitama has pretty much only really wailed on people with extreme durability like Boros/Garou. He utterly chumped the supreme alien psychic guy from Boros' ship.

If they do scuffle it'll probably be mostly her trying to blast Saitama to absolutely no effect since of all the superpowers demonstrated in the series so far the one that Saitama is LEAST impressed with is telekinesis.

Tatsumaki drops a massive stone block on Saitama. Saitama just lets it break on him and asks why she would do that.

That's pretty much how I picture it happening. The greatest thing about Saitama is how how he just treats all the whacked-out over-dramatic superhero poo poo as childishness.

I think I brought that up, because Garou got his strength the same way as Saitama, so it would make sense for them to be equals. I thought the story was wrapping up then (although I dont know why I thought that since we havent met the number 1 hero, or Genos's enemy, or found out what the terrible prediction is yet) but Saitamas gotta get one good fight before its over. Itll be sad if the series ends before he finally gets the one thing that he wants.

Not even Garou solicited a real seriious response.
tatsumaki wont even unpolish his bald head.

Saitama is going to deliver some hard felt words straight to the ego that will probably hurt more than any punch he could throw.

She can't hurt Saitama, certainly. But she can pick him up and toss him around. The funny part is, Tatsumaki is so incredibly arrogant that she probably wouldn't even notice that it wasn't accomplishing much. Like most of S class, she is so far up her own rear end that she can't even recognize how absurd Saitama is.

We've only seen a few, but there are 26

Saitama lives in Z-city, the worst/cheapest one
A city is where the headquarters was until it was destroyed
and that giant destroyed B and C city I think? it might have been some other letters

Keep on GOP rolling rolling rolling rolling.

Those who think Saitama would get moved around forget that Garou, BEFORE HE WENT SUPER MODE, was shrugging off psykos's telekinetic attacks because "I'm that loving good ok. stop this annoying poo poo so I can beat the crap out of you already."

He will get moved around because he's not even paying attention to the attacks, not because he can't casually shrug them off.

This is pretty much a running thing in all of ONE's comics, trying to use superpowers to show off or thinking you're a superior person for having powers is pretty consistently treated as something childish.
