In this new action-comedy, everything about a young man named Saitama screams "AVERAGE," from his lifeless expression, to his bald head, to his unimpressive physique. However, this average-looking fellow doesn't have your average problem... He's actually a superhero that's looking for tough opponents! The problem is, every time he finds a promising candidate he beats the snot out of them in one punch. Can Saitama finally find an evil villain strong enough to challenge him? Follow Saitama through his hilarious romps as he searches for new bad guys to challenge!Living in a world that suffers regularly with monster attacks and have super-heroes to deal with them, Saitama is someone who became a hero for the fun. But unfortunately, he trained so hard and became so powerful, that one punch is all it takes to defeat any opponent. And for him, that's boring.
When you're so strong that you dream about being weak |
The premise of this show is remarkably crazy, and the monsters are intentionally ridiculous. It's filled with great gags, and this episode has a nice flashback showing how Saitama decided to turn into a super-hero. I recommend this anime to anyone who wants excellent battle scenes interleaved with really funny ones. For me, One-Punch Man is very welcome anime, and I will definitely follow it.
