One Punch Man is an ongoing manga originally created as a webcomic by ONE and redrawn by Yusuke Murata for Shueisha from 2012 onward. It follows Saitama, a hero who trained so hard he became bald — and can now defeat any enemy with a single punch. The comedy and existential irony of an overpowered hero in a world that doesn’t understand him is the series’ core. Murata’s artwork is widely regarded as the most technically accomplished in manga history. The series is ongoing with 28+ volumes as of 2026.

Saitama teams up with cyborg Genos and joins the Hero Association — a bureaucratic organization that ranks heroes by public popularity. Satirizes shonen power escalation while delivering genuinely thrilling fights. The Sea King battle is the series’ first emotional peak.

The alien Boros invades Earth with an armada. Saitama vs. Boros is the most technically accomplished fight in the series — and deliberately one-sided. The arc asks: what does a fight feel like when you can’t be hurt?

3. Monster Association Arc (Volumes 13–28+)

The Monster Association kidnaps a child, and the Hero Association launches a massive raid. The longest arc in the series features S-Class heroes fighting simultaneously against an enormous roster of monsters. Garou the human monster develops into one of manga’s most compelling anti-hero arcs.
