This is good satire. And yet, love how this anime/story gives us a good definition for what a hero should be. Love the POV of Saitama that although being the strongest, he still respects other heroes. And yet other POVs like Genos' or Fubuki are really good. They stumbled upon a gem.

[@Vegito_Sketch_Art_]

The writer made Saitama not so attractive on purpose because he wanted people to understand that a hero shouldn't be judged based on how attractive he looks but on his greatness and his ability to do good for the society.

[@sans3go342]

[@en4833]

And because he was pretty shit at drawing in the beginning, so he made Saitama super easy to draw.

[@hebercluff1665]

He was also bald to reference how anime power ups tend to make your hair longer and crazier. Saitama's power up made him bald.

[@oak7OO5]

Anyway it feels like I'm the only one to adore Saitamas looks and his entire outfit personally. Even his meme eye's and face are my favorite it has some uncanny distinctive cold ominous vibe to it. I would say he's overall unique and distinctive as a character. This is our bald dude Saitama aka the *One punch man*

[@l0ki_lux947]

The reason why Saitama face change from silly to serious sometimes.. well it is because of his boredom. Brought on by the fact that his own extreme power made fighting too easy, causes him to have an extremely plain appearance. Essentially, the more emotional Saitama is, the more dynamically he is drawn/animated. So glad you guys are watching this show😁

[@TheHumility101]

they kept some of the original idea from the original drawing. The person that made that story was a good storyteller, but a bad drawer.

So hyped you guys started this, I can already see Ron having ideas about tattoos lol. Season 3 will come up very soon this year and just like Attack On Titan, One Punch Man really takes it's time for new seasons as well. Also, the reason why the Author made him (One Punch Man) look like a gag character is because unlike other anime/manga the main character always looks like a cool person, with awesome hair, tall , smart etc. And he wanted to make sure that all the readers can be related to him one way or another.

Oh, his name is also a pun, based on a bread mascot in Japan. His japanese name is pronounces Wan Pan Man, and the bread mascot is Anpanman. They even dress similarly. Edit: I have since learned that Anpanman is not a mascot, but an actual superhero. I did already know his head was a bun, though.

[@wrexgrafix84]

Anpanman is not a bread mascot… he’s a superhero whose head is actually a sweet bun. It’s a children’s anime.

[@Pears_on_Fire]

@@wrexgrafix84 Well at least I got the name right LOL I didn't know that. I think I learned about Anpanman way back in high school from my Japanese teacher who really enjoyed absurd Japanese commercials, so I just assumed Anpanman was another one of those commercial mascots

[@wrexgrafix84]

@@Pears_on_Fire It’s actually a big part of a child’s life, a staple of a young child’s TV anime experience… Anpanman, Doraemon, Sazae-san, and Chibi-Maruko-chan, are classic, long-running young children’s anime (among other newer ones such as Pokemon), and the kids usually also go through watching live action hero shows (some iteration of the Rangers and Kamen-Rider (which Mumen Rider parodies)). Anpanman’s arch-nemesis is Baikin-man (Bacteria-man), which, I’m pretty sure is what Vaccine-man of episode 1 is parodying.

it’s always so good seeing new people react to this for the first time, makes you wish you could rewatch something for the first time.

[@l0ki_lux947]

Also usually you see superheroes are excited to have superpowers and defeat villains but that's very unlikely for Saitama, sometimes tho. Although he's a hero his power isn't as exciting as telekinesis or flying instead, he has the ability to defeat any opponent with a single punch, and this power has both pros and cons. The biggest advantage is that it makes it easy for him to defeat enemies which is essential because he lives in an alternate Japan that is constantly under attack by monsters but because it doesn't take long to throw a punch, easily vanquishing his foes leads to constant boredom. All he wants it's to fine a worthy opponent that can make him fight at full strength.

So just in case you guys didn’t catch it, Vaccine Man (the purple villain at the beginning of the episode) is a reference to Piccolo from Dragon Ball, as his design greatly resembles that of Piccolo. Also, he is voiced by Ryūsei Nakao, the Japanese voice actor for Frieza, who is also from Dragon Ball. In the English Dub, Vaccine man is voiced by Chris Sabat, who is the English voice actor for both Piccolo and Vegeta from Dragon Ball.
