2. Synopsis One Punch Man

Saitama is an ordinary man who becomes a hero just for fun, but trains so hard that he becomes the strongest being in the world: just one punch is enough to defeat his opponents. Ironically, his absolute power makes his life bland; he struggles to find a challenging opponent and rarely receives recognition. In a world filled with ranked heroes, monsters, secret organizations, and intrigue, Saitama remains relaxed, wearing shorts, a t-shirt, and a blank expression while continuing to search for the meaning of being a 'true hero'.

The series blends humor, action, and light criticism of superhero tropes, plus a plethora of unique supporting characters like Genos, Bang, and the complex antagonist.
