Revision as of 21:21, 12 May 2017

A parody of the super hero genre in which the protagonist is so OP that he can defeat any opponent with one punch. Originally it started as a webcomic by One, which in turn is being adapted into a manga by Yusuke Murata, which was in turn adapted into an anime by Madhouse.

Tropes used in One-Punch Man include:

All a Part of the Job Saitama losing his hair, he feels is all part of the job. "Train hard everyday until your hair falls out."
All Aliens Have Superpowers All monsters and aliens introduced seem to have some form of power beyond a normal human.
All According to Plan
Ass Pull The words of wisdom Saitama says to Genos. He DOES say some wise things, but he's secretly just making it up on the spot.
Ass in Ambassador Saitama always tries to convince his foes to stop or surrender, but if/when they don't listen, they get punched.
Ass in a Lion Skin Plenty of the heroes in the Hero's Association are fairly mean to people, including their fellow heroes, even if they are of the same rank.
Asshole Victim The villains don't tend to get much development for us to feel the least bit sorry for them when Saitama punches them.
All There in the Manual Saitama tells people the exact way he apparently got his powers, but no one ever believes him.
Badass SO many.
Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu? Saitama VS... Well... Anybody.
Exactly What it Says on the Tin One-Punch Man. He's a dude, and all his foes tend to die from a single punch. Which makes it that much more special when someone actually survives for more than one punch from him.
Exactly What I Meant to Say Saitama's words of wisdom to Genos.
Exactly As Planned Saitama wanted to become a super hero, and he got everything he wanted... Except that he became TOO strong and has begun to lose touch with his humanity.
Made of Explodium Things that Saitama punches enemies included, seem to be made of this, but that's not true. Instead, it's just that his punches are that strong.
Something Something Leonard Bernstein: The theme song is mostly in Japanese but has a little english.
Won't Work On Me: Any attack that actually hits Saitama is almost certainly a No Sell.
World of Badass To the point where there's an entire hero organization and even it doesn't necessarily contain every hero of their world.
