Saitama knows this and he will tell you, it's fucking boring. His workout regiment of doing 100 push ups, 100 sit ups, 100 squats, and running 10KM would air conditioning for any of it has made him into some sort of super human. Because of his power he becomes a "hero for fun". But how much fun can he really have? It would be an understatement to say how hyped OPM was. And for the most part it delivered, unlike some other shows like SAO where people got on the hype train for it OPM is generally very well received throughout all the anime community. There's not much to the story, Saitama is super powerful and often times after a bunch of the other heroes struggle against a villain he defeats the bad guy with ONEEE PAWNCHHH. You would think that a character being so overpowered would make the show boring, but it doesn't. In reality, besides the witty writing and overall comedic effect everything has, the whole premise of OPM is almost like an inside joke that everyone is in on. It's like you know what's coming, and when it does you go to yourself "that's great." Saitama himself is also simple, his design is purposely kinda lame to reflect his whole attitude. Genos, who is a an Android, knows how great Saitama is and struggles to understand why he's content with his current position as a hero. There's not really a lot of character building, but the characters it has are fun and memorable due to either designs or how they interact with others, mainly with Saitama. Of course, all of this doesn't matter if the fights are not good. They are. Great even. Best on this list even? Like the battles with Saitama in them are incredibly one sided but they are animated and presented so wonderfully it doesn't seem to matter. The ones without him though have just about all the tension you'd expect from a typical show. Despite how good OPM is, it's certainly better if you've seen other shows like DBZ and HxH. But in general, I think what OPM is going for his accessible enough for a general viewer. --- Kokoro's Anime Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaIA0gY11FQ_Zh6kLSam5OA Updated: July 27th, 2016. <cite>KokoroAkechi posted [p:888576982] in Kokoro's t...
