Saitama is the main character with extremely strong power in One Punch Man . He can easily destroy monsters with just one punch. Saitama is constantly looking for worthy opponents to challenge himself. Even though he is so "dominant" and his achievements are constantly increasing, Saitama has not yet been recognized by the Hero Association as an S-class hero. What is the reason for this?
Saitama did not report to the Association his achievements
In season 2, episode 2 of One Punch Man , fans received an explanation for why Saitama was not recognized by the Hero Association as an S-class hero, because the "bald guy" always happened to encounter monsters. along the way, then take them down. Because of that, he did not report his victories to the Association, so no one knew about Saitama's strength and could increase his rank.
Saitama often defeats the monsters he meets
However, even without reporting it, Saitama's ranking is still slowly increasing, rising to B rank and ranked 17th at the beginning of season 2. That means there is someone in the Association who is still secretly observing Saitama's actions. him and help him increase his ranking. The reason that person didn't raise Saitama to a higher rank was probably because the monsters were too easy to defeat.
In fact, even if one could actually see Saitama's fighting ability, it would still be impossible to know how strong he is. Because a C-rank hero can handle monsters with ease, then surely that monster's power is nothing. So even if Saitama defeats a demon-level monster, or even a Dragon, in the eyes of those around him, that monster is still weak.
The monster looks extremely weak because it is so easy to defeat
Saitama's achievements were mistaken for King's
Saitama's face in One Punch Man is inherently unremarkable. He wears clothes that resemble pajamas and his appearance does not seem strong or cool compared to most other superheroes. For that reason, Saitama cannot receive the fame he deserves. Who would believe that a guy who looks so weak and doesn't look like a superhero at all could be so strong?
Looking like this, who would believe that he is incredibly strong?
In addition, King always accidentally passes by when Saitama destroys monsters. When witnessing the defeat of the formidable monsters, the head of the Hero Association will immediately assume that it was King (the ferocious-looking man with the scar on his face) who dealt with the monsters. monster, not the guy next to him who looks so calm and normal.
King himself has never done anything to refute his "falling from the sky" achievements. Therefore, Saitama's achievements are always mistakenly recognized as King's, he cannot reach S rank unless someone witnessed from beginning to end Saitama's fighting process.
Look at someone and believe that the person behind is the real strong one?
The One Punch Man series uses Saitama's nearly limitless power to satirize the superhero and shounen manga genres. The classification of this series has caused a lot of controversy, but it cannot be denied that One Punch Man is still extremely popular with readers, because the work brings the best of both genres.
