'One Punch Man's Saitama VS 'Dragon Ball's' Son Goku: Who Would Emerge Victorious?
Son Goku from the Dragon Ball franchise is without a doubt the strongest anime character and has remained that way for quite some time. However, when the poker-faced yellow suit-donning hero - Saitama from "One Punch Man" (Wanpanman) was introduced in 2015 fans of both franchises have been musing on who will emerge victorious if such matchup would come to fruition.
Such musings have been asked to "One Punch Man's" illustrator Yusuke Murata just recently in one of his "Murata Streams." A Reddit user was kind enough to post the conversation on the said forum site as it was cited by Comicbook.
Unfortunately, when asked as to whom between Son Goku and Saitama would win the match, Murata responded with a blunt "I don't know." However, the Redditor who posted it described the illustrator to be dead serious when he answered the intriguing question. It was, later on, discovered that he too was a "Dragon Ball" fan. Murata even went on stating that his kids love "Dragon Ball" as well and they are delighted when they see him draw some of its characters.
Both "Dragon Ball" and "One Punch Man" have grown to become massive hits among the current generation as the former is currently on its Tournament of Power story arc while the latter's sophomore season looms. Furthermore, its fan base is itching to see who will be Saitama's next opponent in "OPM's" nest installment.
Faithfuls of the anime series are now making their respective theories for "One Punch Man's" upcoming season. Such speculations include Saitama getting a love interest and an old feud with the villainous Garou could be ignited anew. Another rumor mill that has been spinning for quite some time is the return of the one-eyed alien leader of the Black Matter Thieves, Lord Boros, Droid Report has learned.
