According to the plot of the anime “One-Punch Man”, various monsters from space, dungeons, secret laboratories regularly began to fall on Earth, and God knows where else.
Gradually sweeping away one city after another from the face of the Earth, they bring death to all living things, instilling animal fear in the hearts of those who are still alive.
But outside observers, in addition to the risk of falling into the next blow of another monster, there is nothing to fear: they are guarded by a bald guy named Saitama.
And even if nature didn’t endow him with a heroic appearance, history doesn’t deceive you: Saitam, although he is deprived of hair, a cool suit and necessary, but his abilities amaze even experienced superheroes.
Three years ago, having lost his job and finally decided to embark on the hero’s path, he went too far with training, so now he is defeating almost any monster with one blow.
But why is he so gloomy in this case? And the thing is that the strongest of the heroes begin to lose heart, they cannot meet a worthy opponent, and not a single villain can stand a minute against Saitama.
So, he won’t be pleased either with a series of victories, with respect for a new “student”, or with friends, all he can do is hope that someday he will find a strong rival.
