Top 3 hottest OPM characters(male) in your opinion and why?
Hmmm, quite a difficult question! Mainly cause Murata's out here drawing everyone conventionally attractive, so narrowing down the choices to 3 from such a huge cast of pretty guys is almost unfair! ;o; Plus beyond playing favorites, what constitutes 'hot' varies subjectively from person to person according to taste. Just as a heads up, I'm ace-spectrum, but I still have eyes to discern what's up, so I'll try but may fail to tackle this as clinically as I can. 🧐
Anyway, if you've followed Murata's art evolution from his Eyeshield 21 days, then you might recognize that the character who most closely matches his default 'attractive male' face, aesthetically according to his style, is Glasses.
Tumblr media
Meaning, this face is basically the base form from which you can add or subtract further spices of individuality to make an all-around more interesting and therefore attractive character (even better than this). How well we know the character, and their overall vibe/energy also count as distinguishing factors beyond surface level aesthetics too. So with all that said, I think I can narrow down the final contestants to be among these fine standout ikemen: 
Tumblr media
(With my opinions given in no particular order.)
Flash: aka Mr. Legolas bishie sparkle personified. This guy is probably the most glamorous, stupidly gorgeous mf of the entire cast (even more so than some of Murata’s girls!) and he knows it. Visually he’s more striking to me than Sonic, because his eyes are always sharp, and he carries himself with a sense of poise and dignity (which Sonic often loses...oops). His air of self-importance and arrogance can be a bit off-putting though (giving me vibes of a himedere, especially when he orders Saitama around.) Also because he’s so ‘beautiful’ more on the effeminate side (he proudly even wears heels!) I’m not quite sure if that constitutes ‘hot’ either 🤔 (ymmv on different types of spice/energy though), but since Flash is just so...flashy, it’d be a crime not to mention him!  
Zombieman: visually his face is very easy on the eyes as one of Murata’s most handsome dudes. His noir + vampire hunter theme also counts for style points but any more belt buckles + zippers and he starts parodying a T. Nomura character. Plus Murata’s not shy about giving him cake when nude. :P He features short (simple) black hair spikes, dark-rimmed eyes, and extremely thin (almost non-existent?) eyebrows for some reason. His smoking, undead complexion, and the accidental guro of his fighting style can be turn-offs for some, but my main problem is that he’s too calm/nice! I’d like to see him get angrier to show more fire & personality of what makes him tic - to further assert himself and delineate where he morally stands. Which is why I felt his best moments were when he got angry at Dr. Genus and when he began to tease/bicker with Sweet Mask. Now that’s more like it!
Sweet Mask: technically he is very pretty, like a perfectly manufactured kpop idol, which is probably The Point. I also much prefer his current clean-cut short hairstyle over his long hairdo from earlier in the series (that one didn’t quite fit him imo.) Knowing what he is though, his ‘mask’ can feel a bit uncanny valley (with good reason). Some of his over the top antics resemble Reigen’s con-like and sweaty performances at times, which is amusing, but the other times when he swerves to his murderous impulses can be a big yikes! D: The narcissism traits and his cold asshole behavior can be seen as other negatives, but once you see his arc in the webcomic, the gravity of what he’s internally fighting sheds light on his character in a whole new way (even for Murata, who likely draws him with much more ‘care’ and understanding now too.)   
Saitama: yes, I’m 100% serious. His hard-boiled form has a strong nose, sharp but warm eyes, and a defined jawline. (His baldness doesn’t matter whatsoever.) Anyone knows he’s sporting a greek god statue of a physique under his suit too (which feels a shame Murata doesn’t capitalize on drawing more pinups of him). He walks with imposing purpose yet his presence brings a sense of ease, relief and safety. We know he could basically kill anyone just by breathing, which is 👀;;;; but he won’t because he’s a good egg with fine control of his power. His appeal is understated but approachable, and this is very important!!! (Otherwise if he’s a villain, he imbues the primal fear of being trapped in an alleyway with no escape & futile resistance, except spread over the entire world...noooo!!!) Because even as the most powerful man in existence, you could simply just run up to him to ask for a handshake and he’d be bashfully delighted to. :3 His soft egge form is also very moe (and dopey...though a bit absent-minded), while he himself likes cutesy cheap household paraphernalia as well. Bottom line, a Saitama who’s alert, serious, and impassioned (even angry enough to snarl) is very handsome and I will die on this hill. 😤 
Genos: the boy whose spirit is too much for his frame to contain. :’) But Murata, ahem, Kuseno’s really outdone himself to perfect a face that balances both sharp & rounded features in all the right places; he’s a very striking but finely sanded work of art. (My favorite: when he glows.) He gets everything that accentuates ‘pretty’: from lashes, earrings, to a defined upper lip (the only character who’s consistently drawn with one). And yet, he’s still very masculine from his strong brows, defined jawline, wide shoulders, and solid dorito figure. He also volunteers doing the housework and looks great in pink. Any man who’s responsible, dutiful, & confident in his identity like that (without ever stooping to self-absorbed vanity either) is a big plus. From his overall earnest intensity to his trigger-happy aggression, he surprisingly doesn’t express the extremes of his anger very often on his face. Giving more an air of blunt/rude aloofness that’s a bit coldly standoffish and unapproachable (brooding/repressed almost like Cloud Strife), which makes Genos feel more similar to a kuudere in temperament. However if you earn his respect, he’ll demonstrate unwavering loyalty and a fierce, unshakable overprotectiveness that rivals no other. You can securely trust him to be there for you when it absolutely counts. What a good lad! 
Garou: feral wolf boy who’s thematically all sharp, chiseled edges but for his softer, compassionate heart. :’3 (Just don’t tell him that as he’s not yet ready to face the truth~) In true temperamental tsundere fashion, he may dishonestly be in denial about his feelings, and often has difficulty navigating them, but oh does he care; he cares a LOT. No one swerves from 0 to 100 in the extreme expressions quite like him. No one sports impressive back muscles quite like his either. He also has the prettiest hands out of anyone in the cast; you’d be surprised (and entertained) to see just how elegantly he turns fighting into an artform. Gap moe also works to great effect, cause despite how he looks and tries to present himself, he’s still a huge dork and a nerd. :P (Which makes me laugh cause he’s a bit of a dummy about it - that’s a charm point.) I like his facial scar for more rugged spice. I also prefer when his hair is short(er) though, because once the ‘wolf ears’ start growing too long, they begin to look a little ridiculous on the goofy side, heh. (But ONE’s post-arc solves this.) His extremely toned (Bruce Lee inspired) body is also quite uniquely proportioned, which it seems even merch teams cannot accurately replicate, as beefy ones like Suiryu’s are too big, while Garou’s still built for dexterous speed. Murata’s not blind to what’s he’s designed either, as he happily thirsts in the fanservicey Garou pinups just as much as Fubuki’s. (They are his poster boy & girl, literally.) :P But beyond that, what gets my attention is when he seethes in righteous fury after witnessing injustice, and gives his all to violently protect the weak & innocent (whoaa, protectiveness is hot 😳). And when he snarls in the face of would-be manipulators who might order him what to do by telling them no. Firmly asserting himself where he morally stands, such that his pure heart core can’t be swayed or corrupted (edit: except when he’s forcibly violated against his will by cosmic injustice), enough to tenaciously fight & risk his life on it even, is a big yes!! 8′D Oho, now that’s some good impressive stuff right there!
Ahem, anyway if you were to point a gun at my head to force me to decide, I’d probably default to Saitama as the most solid, ‘anchor’ option. ...But that also doesn’t seem very fair. 🤔 Logically, I also know that Genos is probably the most well-rounded in an effortlessly attractive way...but he was also technically designed to be that way anyway from the start. (Like, he’s supposed to be eye-catching and gorgeous, which Murata does splendidly to capture his charms!) But, but then....if you go by gut feeling also consider whose presence sparks joy and immediately gets you hyped/energized to see more of him prevail and be himself (as an entire package, including looking forward to the person he becomes post-arc), then that would have to be...Garou. ;o; Ahhh!!! So many good opm guys to enjoy!

I want to hear your thoughts and opinions on Metal bat please! Especially the scene where Garou points out his selfishness. I love reading your OPM posts and I have a lot of respect for what you have to say.
this is very sweet, thank you so much :-)
i <3 metal bat, one of my top 5 faves. buuuut, like every character in OPM, he does have his flaws. and garou is quick to point it out. insisting on fighting a monster alone despite the fact you’ll get yourself--and bystanders--killed because you’re trying to flex on someone isn’t heroic. however, given garou can be just as immature and even pettier than metal bat, it does come across rather ironic.
i think it also clarifies that for all of garou’s showboating and self-aggrandizement, he views his ego as secondary to his goals. we’ve seen him set aside his hunt for tareo before and he’s not too proud to formulate an escape plan when he knows he can’t win. he ran from watchdog man, considered begging for his life with bang and bomb, and attempted to use death gatling as a hostage to get away. garou ditches all sense of self preservation when it’s time to protect someone, but otherwise, he’s very aware of his limitations.
metal bat does not know when it’s time to stop playing games. i don’t even think this is really selfishness so much as recklessness. him leaving the hospital to go to an active battlefield for a rematch with someone he literally could not touch in their last fight was actually insane. and it’s irresponsible--his life isn’t just about him. people are counting on him as a hero (and as a big brother). hopefully he realizes this before he gets himself killed :/

Garou and metal bat are really alike-himbos, handsome, heroic, hot tempered, hate being ordered around, have a kid who they look after... Metal bat is one of the few s class heroes who has yet to learn the value of teamwork, cooperation unlike his other s class peers...I still don't like metal bat that much...he is kinda boring and predictable to me whereas Garou is unpredictable, entertaining and just...Garou lol
Their hotblooded, stubborn, dumb teen similarities are why I see them more as bash bro buddies. :D (Nothing against the ship, I just see Garou as a complete package already all on his own~) And I do like Metal Bat; he's a great boy, but it's true that as a character he (as of yet) doesn't have the same dynamic range, meta potential + complexity Garou has. Mb's a just a wee bit static (which isn't a bad thing for his character archetype), or as @gofancyninjaworld puts it, his progression (& power) is more like a yo-yo, whereas Garou's always keeps increasing. Perhaps this battle will finally give Mb some more awaited character development?! So I was really excited to see the translation of their reunion banter! (Might as well walk thru it cause it's fun~)
The situation feels a bit like deja vu with yet another giant centipede this time going after the rescue helicopter - which holds Tareo & Waganma (the hostage) in it. Which is Garou's top priority right now to keep safe!! ;o; (Ahhh!!! Which of course I can see that getting wildly misunderstood if the other heroes think Garou, the 'monster,' is trying to kidnap/hurt the kids or something. :P) Anyway he and Metal Bat are going after the same centipede until they finally spot & recognize each other.
Metal Bat thinks Garou's here to interrupt him again like when they last met, and starts thrashing at him in a rage (bless him, he has an intelligence of 3) but this time, GAROU'S NOT HAVING IT!
Tumblr media
I love this! 8'D Because this time, in a humorous (ironic) reversal of sorts from their first fight, Garou refuses to engage him and keeps focused solely on his duties/target without getting distracted, cause right now he has no time to waste! Tareo's in danger~ I love Garou's little Annoyed face at Mb's insistence to follow him spouting...that. :P (Now Mb, don't get too distracted here...)
But seeing Garou scare away the other news helicopter (to hilarious effect) and focus his attacks only on the centipede to fend it off....Metal Bat starts curiously cluing in onto Garou's 'true colors'. ;))) Because good, I had hoped Mb would start showing some sharper discernment of what's up!
Tumblr media
Fantastic. "It's almost like your head's screwed on straighter" now. :P Along with Garou's absolute tsundere(tm) denial returning in classic form~ (Sure, of course that's the only reason why you scared off the news helicopter, Garou. /s) Man's out here trying to save innocent lives thru fear, huh? ;)
Tumblr media
Omg "The brat you idiots are protecting" is in the helicopter. Pfft fool, the brat you're protecting (Tareo) is in there!!! 8'D (Garou can you even hear yourself?!) Buaha, how iconic it is that Garou's out here barking orders like a team leader strategist on how 'nice little heroes' should do their jobs. ;D And of course Mb's like WTF, who are you?!
Tumblr media
Incredible. 8'D So Mb wants to take on the centipede alone, to finish the job he couldn't before. (Whoops, that's a bit over his head now, don't you think!?) However, Garou on point: "Saving the brat should be top priority, but you're just here stroking your ego!" (And how would you know about that Garou, when saving Tareo is your top priority?! Isn't being a 'good guy' hero exactly what you're doing here?! Huehuehue.) Anyway what did I say about Garou schooling heroes on how to do their jobs properly?! (He's even here to ironically do it for them!) Yeah. If Garou believes he can't be a hero himself, then whipping the S Class's behavior & performance into shape as the scary 'monster' is his next best option. (Garou please...)
The duo's slapstick rage & impatience towards the centipede is pure comedy; I'm laughing so hard. x'D
Tumblr media
Then to top it all off, Suiryu, who's watching everything live on tv, notes how he couldn't even feel much killing intent from the 'fiendish monster' that 'attacked' the news helicopter. :P Amazing. Thank you ONE for that bonus confirmation on Garou's character! We'll see how these chaotic fools get through this next time~

I have a Garou headcannon- Garou is bang’s illegitimate son. Garou, although not canonically, is not close to this parents- perhaps the reason is he doesn’t have any?! Bang probably hooked up with some sex worker and they later went on their separate ways-Bang got his ass kicked by Bomb and started training again whereas the woman probably resumed her work duties after delivering Garou to pay her bills essentially. Both Garou and Bang are overflowing with martial arts talent which “genetic” imo
It's pretty suspicious, isn't it?! Since 'the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.' But due to Bang's current age (he was in his 30s when he fooled around, and it's unknown how much...action he got later, after he reformed himself) and the fact Garou mentioned having a 'dad' before in his first flashback:
Tumblr media
I'm more inclined to suspect an illegitimate grandson, with Bang as that long lost/removed grandfather somewhere down the line, thanks to his past shenanigans (without either of them knowing it). Bang mentioned he had no children of his own, but how would he even know that for sure?? Especially from any of the random one-night stands & hookups he (apparently) had in his prime?! There's no mention of Garou's mother anywhere either....so it's interesting to think about.
Still, younger Bang's personality was so unlike Garou's (that Garou would similarly disapprove of that behavior, like Bomb, if he knew), that they could also simply have no relation at all, beyond sharing the coincidental surface traits & talent. :O

Is Garou a tsundere or a yandere? He is always in twisted denial of his true feelings but he becomes violent (only if necessary) when it comes to defending those he cares about.
Definitely tsundere, even down to saying the hilarious classic line:
Tumblr media
"It's not like I came here to save you or anything, baka."
...Awkwardly denying and avoiding the truth about what he very much just DID. Even when he worries about Bang, he pushes the thought aside and gets angry at himself later for having softer feelings™. :P And that's the crux of it: tsunderes are generally gruff, prickly, and temperamental about displaying their true feelings on the outside, often resorting to deflection tactics (ie: Blatant Lies) or anger to either avoid the topic or mask their softer, caring cores. And we all know Garou is a softie in denial on the inside, even Tareo & Saitama can tell. :'3
While on the other hand, yanderes are completely different! D: Their trope consists of appearing sweet & 'nice' to others on the surface....only to mask their actual, violently possessive and murderously axe-crazy personality within. O.O Be afraid and cautious of these! Because in their extreme (often disturbing) obsessions, they not only scheme & resort to killing all their opposition, but can also direct their violence towards hurting/controlling/killing those they actually care about too. Like in the event of say, a rejection gone horribly wrong, yanderes will not take it well; even their loved ones won't be spared.
Now you might see a Garou portrayed to violent ooc extremes like this in fanfic aus and such (esp darkfics), but the actual canon Garou is anything but. :O Him possessing the feral urge to protect who he cares about (including his softer empathetic side) is a much different character basis than the twisted urge to possess and control thru manipulation tactics and murder. That I can confidently say Garou is absolutely not a yandere!

Is Garou a self loathing person?
Ah, this reminds me of when @anonymousedward and I discussed the topic here, stemming from him lacking in confidence, that he's sullenly resigned to take his self-destructive monster role all the way to the end, mentally prepared to essentially sacrifice himself (and his happiness) for a greater cause. Which is already pretty morbid enough, but you also see it in moments where he dismisses any act of goodness/kindness/heroics he does with his 'no I'm terrible/bad/evil; no I'm just a monster' self-convincing mantras. Like he absolutely can't accept or trust the authentic parts of himself, which is...:')) quite tragic, honestly. (Which is why Tareo's so important later for giving him that boost into accepting himself.)

OPM and haikyuu changed a significant part of my "social life"...it prompted me to use reddit, Tumblr, twitter to engage with people with similar interests on an anonymous scale. What about you?
We going...way back, here? Because for me that was on independently moderated forum boards, of which I was a mod on a few. Like for squaresoft (not enix) games and general anime fanart + vectoring communities. Which unfortunately no longer exist anymore (I'm still very sad for the loss of all that community data). ;o;

In the OPM webcomic chapter 103…what really happened between tatsumaki and her “fan”? I have read that chapter like ten times already and I’m always like????
Oh I thought for a sec you were referring to the other fan - the girl who 'falls' for Tatsumaki after ditching her boyfriend, heh. But in THIS CASE...
Tumblr media
The boy's shocked into dumbfounded silence after getting an up close & personal 'experience' with webcomic Tatsumaki's ahh...personality. :'D

Did you notice the inconsistencies in the newest chapter? Garou’s flashbacks always have had everyone’s faces blurred (the kids from his childhood were totally black/ the bully’s name is remembered through effort/the previous dojo flashback too) this time the disciples’ faces were in detail. Despite Garou’s resentment against bang becoming a hero- in the very lavishness of the fabricated disrespect against his teacher, there must have been a deep and aching desire to please him as well..
Inconsistencies? :O Hmm...well considering how his early dojo days likely weren't a source of ill will/trauma/bad memories to him like his bullied childhood schooldays were, it makes sense to me that he'd look back on those days with more fondness compared to mentally blacking out the details (and the extras + npcs) of his worst humiliating experiences like he would have otherwise. I'd say the difference speaks volumes towards his mood + mental state between the two types of memories. (Plus I actually like to SEE more of the context and other students, etc from his dojo days myself.)
ESPECIALLY if his dojo days were more of a place for a fresh start for him, while seeking that validation/approval/attention/acknowledgement from his old man Bang - practically Garou's surrogate parent/grandparent even, all before Garou felt the loss & disappointment from Bang essentially neglecting him for his hero duties later. :') Even now, with current Garou noting to himself for his old man to watch his improvement compared to their old days...it's like yes, you can feel some of that inner desire to make Bang proud. :'))

An observation about Garou’s childhood trauma: he has dissociated himself from his kid self and recollects the events in the playground and in the teacher’s office in third person view. The bullies’ faces are blackened and their forms are shapeless. I feel sorry for him.
For him mentally distancing himself from those memories and repressing the events where he felt hurt at his most shameful/weak/powerless.....oh yes. :’))

I was rereading OPM manga chapter 114. I understood that after fighting orochi, Garou might have exhausted himself and lost consciousness. But when Do-S was ‘’torturing” him why couldn’t he get up and fight back? She was a demon level monster after all and the whip could never put a dent on Garou’s tenacious spirit right? He was impaled, nearly burnt alive by his Orochi, survived despite coughing up blood after facing a direct attack from Range Rover(you get the point).
He was basically knocked out cold (for plot reasons), after an extended period of time pushing himself practically non-stop without any rest - cause then naturally at that point, the consequences of pushing himself that hard to the extremes without breaks finally catches up with him, where for ex the body forcefully takes breaks for you.
But also, his will is characteristically strong/stubborn/tenacious enough that it can't be forcibly bent (which translates to psychic resistance in opm), so since Do-S's whip is supposedly an application of psychic hypnotism, it tracks that it would have no effect on Garou. :O (So I believe it when she said he couldn't bend no matter what she did.) But since everything was either implied or off-screened, we have no clue what she actually did (or if she was lying about all her 'torture' methods on him to spook Bang & co).
However if Psykos gave Do-S the duty of whipping Garou into shape while he was knocked out cold (in attempt to control and 'put a leash on him' as she wanted for another backup Orochi), then it would also be no surprise to me if he didn't react because he just couldn't feel anything - where a psychic whip with no response would barely register as a feather touch enough to even wake him at that point, heh.

Out of all the heroes Garou has personally encountered, Metal bat is the only hero Garou hasn’t been disappointed by right? He was left wide-eyed by metal bat’s immediate reaction to the helicopter in danger…and something happened which I could never see coming in a hundred years…GAROU COOPERATING WITH SOMEONE, ACCEPTING TEAMWORK, LEAVING HIS LONE WOLF PERSONA FOR ONCE…I love this chapter so much man I feel like my chest is about to burst lol
We'll have to see what else may happen to affect Garou's verdict, but him seeing Metal Bat jump to shield the copter was probably a very good 'hero point' performance in his book~ Otherwise Garou was definitely annoyed at first with Mb trailing him in petty anger and getting distracted from the priority task at hand (Garou has absolutely no time to waste playing around when it's real shit: Tareo in danger!) Enough to snap at Mb in impatience scolding him to better focus on the job like a proper S Class hero :'D Aha~ (I think Mb gets the hint~)
This time in an ironic, almost role-reversal switcharoo compared to their first encounter, Garou directly practices what he preaches; putting aside any ego or reservations about appearances (even if it means temporarily cooperating to take down a common enemy) when real lives are at stake. :'3 The other takeaway is that when Garou has no need to perform, aka when he drops the 'monster' act at the flip of a switch to focus solely on his most important duties, he's already one of the best capable (anti)heroes who's there to get shit done! (In his own unorthodox 'scary' way, heh.) Now if only he comes to realize/accept that about himself beyond the denial...:'3

Do you remember this ask? The possibility you mentioned at the end has finally come true! What a coincidence lol
Oh yeah? :O What did I say...."a Garou who mayhaps gains fans & admirers (interacting with more people) in genuine ways - all that’s good, dandy, and encouraged cause he deserves to have nice things for once." ...Well dang, imagine that. 8'D It seems to have happened earlier than expected but wah! Beyond Tareo, guess who else starts cheering and supporting him this chapter -without even knowing who this 'mystery hero' is- in genuine ways, along with his positive interactions with Metal Bat! (And bonus, without Garou likely even aware of his new admirers either) aha that's so cute!

Garou simply walked away from the fight and focused on protecting the kid from the monsters…is what metal bat should have done for Wangama’s sake…screw the anon who said Garou was a selfish person in that fight…Mb threw his kindness away, sucker attacked him from the back and almost took his life away. Like I said before. I really don’t like metal bat that much…
To be fair, that one ask was pretty much verbatim the kind of bad faith Garou takes you'd see on reddit (cause once again this ch Garou even tanks monster hits for Tareo's sake on his priority mission to keep him, and even the other civilian news helicopter, safe and far away from the battle. ;o;)
And to Metal Bat's credit, he is genuinely a good lad. Young (17), reckless, and prone to anger, that he gets a bit easily distracted and often carried away when he's just that pissed off. But it's not really something inherently or actively malicious I think, because it seems Metal Bat doesn't even realize (or is even really aware of) when he's doing it either (the guy has an intelligence score of 3/10 :'D) However when he's calm and rational, he is quite sharp and perceptive to discern what's up.(See the webcomic's Neo Hero arc when he rightly sensed something sinister going on and got captured for it.) Which means he has the potential to learn and reflect like any other growing teen, he just might be a tad slower (and need more direct information/instruction) to pick up the cues. He'll come around~
But if you want an annoyed, impatient Garou who now directly scolds & schools Metal Bat into being a better focused S Class hero, then here ya go:

There has been something which has bothered a lot..why did garou mercilessly bashed mumen rider's face in the pavement multiple times? Mumen rider stood up for him, took a S-Class hero's punch to the face for him and he gets repaid with that...?!?
Easy, because at that moment, Mumen decided to switch sides, step out of line (his turn) to intervene, and foolishly attack him from behind. (Which is all unfair & uncool from Garou's perspective.) Cause one of the unstated consistencies about Garou's behavior is that if he's attacked, he will defend himself accordingly. Yes, even if that means against kids -like CE in the wc- to 'good boy' heroes like Mumen.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Just look at the disappointment on Garou's face. (The shadowed one actually looking pretty irritated.) He's not impressed. Not even enjoying doing that at all without ever smiling either. I honestly feel like if Mumen had not done that, then Garou probably would've left him alone for defending him to focus just on the Tank Toppers. (Or at least waited until he's done with the Toppers first before resuming his original 'hunt' on Mumen. Perhaps with a much less severe beating and/or 'punishment' too.) But because Mumen suddenly jumped in against him instead, welp;;;....Garou now makes him the example for the other Tank Toppers - about what'll happen to them too, for having the same foolish idea to jump in (especially backed by all their numbers - it's practically a gang rush vs him) and pick a fight with him too. :')
