One Punch Man is a superhero series anime that also acts as a parody of the genre. The show sees Saitama as the strongest hero who decided to become a hero for fun but has become overwhelmingly bored from villains unable to survive a single punch. As he tries to find any form of thrill or entertainment, he realizes that he isn’t recognized by the Hero Association and decides to become a professional hero. With Genos as his disciple, he searches for a purpose while more monsters and the ‘hero hunter’ Garou make their appearance. Â

The wait for the next installment has been very long but fans will soon be able to continue the story in this fantastic anime. Although it does contain moments that suggest it’s a parody of superheroes, it has many serious moments throughout the show for many characters. The anime and characters are one of a kind, and it will be amazing to see what happens to Garou and Saitama in the coming episodes.Â
