A delightfully witty satire of the shounen genre as a whole. Also, Saitama is bald for the same reason I am. I like that.

The seemingly ordinary and unimpressive Saitama has a rather unique hobby: being a hero. In order to pursue his childhood dream, he trained relentlessly for three years—and lost all of his hair in the process.

In fact, all it takes to defeat evildoers with just one punch has led to an unexpected problem—he is no longer able to enjoy the thrill of battling and has become quite bored.

  • greycrasan: If you like fun, you should watch it.
  • Doaks: The painful realization of life that is too easy when you can beat everything without trying. The search begins for some fun and effort!
  • Watson_DCSJ: What gets the man who has everything to get up in the morning? Even if Saitama isn't having fun, this show will make sure you do.
  • Dirt_Claude: Madhouse is a good studio, but I rarely feel the passion from them for a project like I did here. Expect some good laughs and sakuga.
  • manbavaran: 0/10 he punches more than once.
