7 Interesting Facts About Garou 'ONE PUNCH MAN' That Make Saitama Almost Helpless

Initially, Garou was a student of Silver Fang (Bang), one of the S-Class heroes. He trained in martial arts at Bang's dojo, but was not satisfied with the strength he possessed. This ambition led him to leave the dojo and resolve to become stronger through extreme means.

According to Duniaku.com, Garou was once a child who was often bullied. He began to blame the concept of "heroes and villains" when his friends cast him as the villain named Tacchan. From that moment on, he vowed to reverse the narrative: that monsters could also be heroes. This perspective evolved into an obsession that turned him into the enemy of all heroes in the world.

Garou began his actions by attacking A-Class heroes in the Hero Association. He then hunted street heroes like Tank Top Army and Metal Bat. His nickname as the "Hero Hunter" skyrocketed and instilled fear among the heroes. However, in every fight, Garou always learned.

Unlike other monsters that transform due to special cells, Garou transforms because his own body destroys its "limiters". Whenever he gets angry or frustrated, his form changes from human to a winged shape, reaching the "Cosmic Fear" form. This transformation peaks when he receives power from a mysterious entity named God

In the One Punch Man manga chapters 166–167, Garou fights Saitama until they are thrown to Planet Jupiter by Blast. For the first time, Saitama encounters an opponent who can withstand his "Serious Punch". Even so, Saitama still holds back because one of his hands is used to protect the rest of Genos's body.

Although known as a villain, Garou has unconsciously performed heroic acts several times. He protects a boy named Tareo from Death Gatling's attack and saves a journalist's helicopter while fighting a giant monster. This shows that Garou, despite being filled with anger, still harbors a side of humanity that has not been extinguished.

In one of the most iconic moments, Garou's aura is so strong that it makes S-class heroes like Darkshine lose their confidence. His mere presence can make opponents nosebleed, lose their hair, and even faint. This phenomenon shows that Garou has reached an evolutionary point where his power and psychological aura are equivalent to a "God-level disaster". Want to read more news related to One Punch Man?
