Ever since I was a young kid I was into the idea of a superhero being the perfect example of an individual. This idea however is gone after watching and liking superhero series where the hero is not perfect but is actually the ideal such as Batman for not being perfect. One Punch Man puts the final nail on that coffin and doesn't hold back in using the hammer.

In relation the thing I liked about One Punch Man is its characters which include mainly Saitama the One Punch Man and Genos the Cyborg Sidekick. Saitama is an example of the overpowered hero in the final stages of long series of superhero stories and arcs who is so powerful that no one can beat him. unlike Superman or Dragonball characters who enjoy having their power and have a ideal personality Saitama has a more realistic personality. He is like a person playing a MMO and gets to the highest possible level and the game is no longer fun anymore. This property is what makes Saitama a much more deeper character and makes the story more refreshing.

Genos is a really strong character and represents the hero who is strong but can be easily beaten because he is not OP and is prone to heavy damage. Genos personality that develops is what makes him a strong character. The story mainly centers around the two characters I mentioned but everything else is not that strongly developed in my opinion which is why I think this series would need a season two.

The art of One Punch Man is top notch were fight scenes in each episode are done with amazing detail and quality. Some of the most epic scenes where amazing and had me watching the episode again and again. The music was pretty brilliant and made those scenes way better. I do wish they added more to the soundtrack as it seemed rather short.

The Enjoyment level of One Punch Man is good I have a relative who is not really into anime but enjoyed watching this series with me. I think this was due to the superhero theme and some of the parodies that can be found among the heroes and villains.
