I love One Punch Man's slow descent into the Harem genre
It's like the joke about men going to the gym to impress women only to end up surrounded by male admirers.

I can't stop thinking that it's in some ways a regret for poisoning Sonic and leaving. Them killing each other is something that would happen sooner or later, as they are both killers and Flashy has cut ties. I don't feel like he regret is for not killing Sonic, but not being able to stay there in his last moments.
He didn't stay to "finish the job" because seeing Sonic's lifeless body is his biggest fear, Flashy feels like a coward.

one punch man characters and if i think they understand highschool level math
saitama - yes he knows highschool level math. i mean, he’s not particularly good at it, but he can do it if he tries
genos - has a computing power of 1 billion calculations per second
sos sonic - well.. no, not really. he did not go to school so how would he even learn it
king - yeah he knows it. probably a little better than saitama, but not noticeably so
mumen rider - ehhh… sure, but he doesn’t remember a lot of it (traumatic head injuries will do that)
silverfang - he forgor 💀 he’d probably try to help garou with his homework and then be like “..they changed math since i learned it.” but actually he just doesn’t know how to do math harder than addition.
garou - he’s trying his best with his GED leave him alone 😕
metal bat - he is currently in highschool and learning math. is he good at it? not really, but he can do it
atomic samurai - “what the fuck is a so-ka-toe-uh?”
flashy flash - yeahh no. he knows less than sonic somehow. barely understands how to multiply 😭
tatsumaki - she will crush you to be impossibly small if you even mention algebra to her
fubuki/psykos - we saw both of them during highschool. they definitely learned math, but fubuki probably remembers better than psykos on account of the . being driven to madness
ok that’s all i got.

Idk but I think Genos got those self-deprecating feelings EVEN after he saw what Saitama did for him through the core was because they got different expectations from each other.
Saitama cared about Genos as a companion, a loyal disciple who will always be with him no matter how bad he is, a righteous person who still follows justice in this mad world. Genos is the reason he keeps trying to be better to deserve, and so the person who kept him sane when he started seeing humans as insects. That's why he'd rather destroy the whole world if he saw his disciple be killed, his source for him to 'cling for support' be gone.
He's worried about Genos. He somehow wanted him to let go of his anger, to move on and live a peaceful life, rather than pursuing his revenge only to be destroyed. In other words, he's scared of losing Genos. (these panels were in the wc as well, but I love the idea that Saitama was haunted by Genos' death esp after seeing his dead core in the manga's MA arc)
It doesn't matter to him whether Genos is strong or weak. All that matters is Genos being there with him, as a human, not a robotic weapon.
On the other hand, Genos cared more about destruction power to fulfill his revenge purpose (Edit: and yes he also wanted to be stronger to protect other people, not like a helpless child he was 4 years ago). He sees Saitama as a 'symbol of strength' he wanted to follow, a person he admires, or worships to some point. That's why he'd be angry at anyone who looks down on his master or doesn't recognize his ability, also the reason why he follows the whole "notice me sensei" theme. (it's not like love and I want to deny this)
Plus he couldn't hear Saitama's thoughts from those memories as how lucky we were. He didn't know Saitama got that level of power JUST because the master had experienced such extreme emotions when he'd seen his disciple's death. All Genos perceived was -Saitama's power was so out of this world that he literally sneezed out a whole planet. That power, compared to his punch that blew a mountain range, is on a different level.
About the core touching scene, maybe from Genos' view this could just mean his master trying to encourage him, like he's always been doing despite how terrible it was in the latest chapter. And it was not because Saitama actually acknowledged his progress. He's that kind of person who always yearns for the better and therefore exhausts himself no matter how much other people told him to relax. I couldn't think of any proper explanation for it. I hope this makes sense.
I sure missed something, but I'm always a sucker for idjits who don't know how much they love each other, or at least, from Saitama's side only.

Saitama: I heard that Kitsune can predict the future?
Genos: Yes, sensei. Some powerful Kitsune can even travel space and time and influence humans' destinies. But I'm too young and inexperienced for that.
Sensei, do you want to see some fortune telling?
Saitama: Hm.. I don't know. Maybe I -
Genos: HYA!!!
Genos:
Genos: Don't worry sensei! I will still follow you!
