One-Punch Man, Vol. 5 (One-Punch Man, #5)

Nothing about Saitama passes the eyeball test when it comes to superheroes, from his lifeless expression to his bald head to his unimpressive physique. However, this average-looking guy has a not-so-average problem-he just can't seem to find an opponent strong enough to take on!

To stop a Demon-level crisis, Saitama and company head toward the action. However, even Class S heroes prove to be no match for the Deep Sea King! In order to protect the good citizens, our heroes will need to summon all of their courage and confront this threat!

I love the conclusion to the Sea Villain plot. It was intense, but it also gave us a chance to see the other side of Saitama. Previously he’s been shown as naïve and insanely strong. But now we also know that he can be compassionate. It’s nice to see.
And let’s not forget: Moomen Rider! I adore him. I know he isn’t the stronger character out there, but he’s a great example of how a hero should be behaving. And thus he’s a perfect mirror for all the strong heroes out there that are doing nothing half the time.
