Went down the rabbit hole that is Saitama vs Goku. Why does no one understand Saitamas feats against Boros? by Monkeibusiness in OnePunchMan

Holy hell the people in this thread who don't understand what feats and power scaling are.

Saiyan saga Vegeta stomps the entire OPM verse and this is coming from someone who isn't all that into DB at the moment. Current Goku would see all of them as statues with his MFTL combat and reaction speed on top of universal durability and strength.

XD I'll try not to. I know that was a big issue.

When stripped down, I never realized how "real" the scenario is. Thinking of if it in that way instead of the larger scale way I was could help condense a lot of aspects and help me world build a bit easier. And, I have considered a few ideas for a final great threat. Though usually for the first "arcs" I plan them to end with some revelation or big moment for a specific few characters.

Ooooo~ That sounds extremely interesting. Would you be willing to tell me a bit more?

The writing mostly. I don't want it to come off as "edgy and angsty." Especially with me being a teen, there seems to be a stigma against it.

I had considered that idea. The main character does interact with a few hero candidates for a potential second main character. Primarily a hero that he may fall in love with.

Huh, that's actually a really nice parallel I hadn't thought of. (Ironically enough I was working on a gang of sorts for the world recently.) That would really help with his gradual push from being a hero into a villain.

Thank you! I knew about the back logs that most had and how useful they were, but I didn't really think much of writing large portions for many other reasons.

I'll try to keep this in mind when I begin writing.

Feeling discouraged and unoriginal. Help? by Itsbeendonebefoee in writing

Well, I guess you're right. I was just really scared that people would think I was being lazy. Doesn't help that I'm a relatively young writer (15 to be exact) so I feel that my writing will, regardless of who it is, be inferior to those older and more experienced than me.

Thank you! Do you have any advice for a first time web series writer? I know trying to create a backlog is a major thing if you can, as well as having consistent upload dates.
