Just let that guy go home

They somehow managed to save the best for last in spite of the fight itself not taking very long. This was the culmination of the work of professionals who know how to draw up a spectacle and man this might genuinely be one of my favourite fights in all of anime. No nonsense, just a couple of parallels; one warrior who wishes to finally find a good fight and another who has finally found what he has been looking for. I initially thought the concept would get tiring after the third episode but boy was I wrong, I could watch multiple seasons of this. It really is all about keeping things simple and honing in on that one thing that stands out, and this show does it better than any I've ever seen.

Lord Boros literally punching saitama to the Moon, only for him to casually jump back and drop the serious punch is the most jaw-dropping flex in this anime.
