One Punch Man

Bald invincible protagonist

One Punch Man is a Japanese manga and anime series about a superhero who can defeat any opponent with a single punch.

The character Saitama's overwhelming power leaves him bored and unfulfilled, playing the premise for comedy and satire of superhero tropes.

The title has become shorthand for effortless, anticlimactic dominance: He one-punch-manned that exam.
