One Punch Man has become more and more popular over the past two years. Before it was an anime, before it was a beautifully drawn professional manga, it was a crappily drawn webcomic. The fact that is started out as some artist taking a chance and putting his work out there even though he knew it didn’t have the best art, he took a chance anyways. As long as the story is strong, it will shine through.
I appreciate the ridiculous characters and hilarious nods to other mainstream media. Not to mention the Saitama face. When translating from the source material to the professional material I love that some of the original drawing style and dialogue was kept the same.
Saitama is a very relatable character in terms of being bored with his life. His facial expressions are also very relatable.
The introduction of Genos is probably one of the most awkward ways to introduce a character ever. Genos appears to be a badass powerful cyborg that’s gonna save the day. Hilariously he has his ass handed to him by a mosquito and of course Saitama kills it with one punch.
There are many theories going around about just how Saitama got his powers. I don’t think doing an insane workout routine every day will make you an invincible superhero. I might make you bald but I don’t think it’ll turn you into Superman.
