One Punch Man Manga Characters

One Punch Man is one of the most hilarious and well-written anime series to date, and it is chock-full of amazing characters.

However, while some characters fade into the background after a while, others are much more memorable and stand out as fan favorites throughout the series.

As one of the main antagonists of the Human Monster Saga in the anime, the Monster King doesn’t mess around and his terrifying array of powers makes him an unforgettable villain.

King is an S-Class hero, known to the public as “The Strongest Man on Earth”. He is one of the highest-ranked members of the Hero Association, and his name alone strikes fear into all of his foes.

Unfortunately, despite his intimidating appearance and reputation with monsters, villains, and the public, King is really just a huge otaku who was unintentionally given credit for the work done by Saitama.

Despite his only real superpowers being extreme luck and master gaming skills, King is extremely memorable and it’s always hilarious to watch him try to maneuver out of situations to hide the fact that he’s not the strongest man alive.

If Bomb were a video game character, he’d be right at home in some of the best fighting games, and he even has the classic martial arts master look to match.

Along with his brother, he is one of the two best martial arts masters in the world and, despite his age, he can more than hold his own.

Despite not being a member of the Hero Association, Bomb will come to help his brother when the need arises by saving downed heroes or keeping Dragon-level threats out of the cities.

His face is taken up by a single large eye and eight small arms protrude from his head, giving him a very unsettling appearance.

Making this character even more memorable is the fact that he’s incredibly intelligent and his words carry almost as much weight as his master.

The third-strongest member of the House of Evolution and the only battle cyborg, Armoured Gorilla, was originally tasked by Dr. Genus with abducting Saitama for study.

However, after he and the whole House of Evolution were brought down by Genos and Saitama, Armoured Gorilla reformed his ways and now lives a peaceful life working with Dr. Genus at their newly opened takoyaki shop.

Although Marshall Gorilla thinks he’s lost his way and betrayed his species, this super-smart primate isn’t phased and instead just wants to blend in with society.

Supposedly born from human pollution, this purple humanoid — who looks suspiciously like Piccolo — sought to wipe out humanity and “vaccinate” the earth from the infection of the human race.

While obviously the whole “wiping out humans” bit is bad, fans can’t help but think that he definitely had a point about pollution.

Dr. Bofoi, more commonly known as the Metal Knight, always seems to have his army of mechs show up whenever a disaster strikes.

However, despite his impressive arsenal and the help he has provided the Hero Association, such as building their HQ, many other S-Class heroes regard him with suspicion and believe that he’s not really the ally that he pretends to be.

While his full motives have yet to be explored in the anime, this is one character that fans are definitely keeping a close eye on.

The King of the Seafolk, this towering aquatic humanoid gave a lot of heroes a run for their money when he showed up on the surface.

Though Mumen Rider did valiantly stand up to him, the Sea King’s extreme power was too much for the Rider to match.

While he only appeared in one episode in the first season of the anime, this villain is absolutely unforgettable, and we kind of wish he’d gotten more screen time.

Fortunately, he is a playable character in One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows, so fans of this underwater behemoth can still get their fix.

With multiple heads, each able to separate and create a new body, this villain gave the S-Class heroes a lot of trouble with his regenerative abilities before they learned the secret to being able to kill him once and for all.

While Puri Puri Prisoner is very flamboyant and extravagant, he does still manage to be more down-to-earth than some other high-ranking heroes and seems to genuinely want to help people, especially if he finds them attractive.

Despite her human face, this girl was anything but, and the majority of her body was made up of an insect-like exoskeleton.

While she, without a doubt, put up a good fight against Genos, she was simply no match for a simple slap doled out by a naked Saitama.

Sweet Mask is another hero that is wholly ambiguous and he’s pretty enough that, were he a girl, he’d be a strong contender to be one of the best blue-haired anime girls.

An A-Class hero ranked number 1 and a member of the Hero Association hero rank evaluation staff, he states that he chooses not to advance to S-Class in order to prevent those he feels aren’t worthy from joining the elites.

Although he seemingly spends more of his time acting, singing, and modeling than fighting crime, Sweet Mask has a strong sense of justice and believes that heroes who can’t adequately protect civilians aren’t strong enough and are lacking.

This no-tolerance stance coupled with his vague abilities and motives makes him a fascinating character who is definitely more than meets the eye.

The now-former head of the House of Evolution, Dr. Genus is a highly intelligent scientist who used experimentation to give himself renewed youth.

After having become disillusioned by society, deeming it primitive, he decided that the best course of action was for humanity to evolve and that he would be the one to make it.

However, after seeing One Punch Man in action, he began to think that he was the one who needed to change instead.

With the House of Evolution all but destroyed, he moved on with Armoured Gorilla to open his own takoyaki shop, having figured out how to grow octopus tentacles indefinitely through his research into physical regeneration.

The younger sister of Tatsumaki, Fabuki, is a powerful esper, although she does lack some of the skills that her sister has.

Going by the alias, Blizzard of Hell, she is the B-class rank 1 hero and sometimes comes across as being extremely cold and ambitious.

While she is more than able to advance into S-Class, because of Sweet Mask’s gatekeeping, she has yet to be able to.

Also known as the Tornado of Terror, she is one of the best green-haired anime girls and one of the most powerful heroes in the anime. Together, she and Fubuki are often called the Psychic Sisters because of their powers.

As a small, petite woman, she is often mistaken for being much younger than she is, something that never fails to anger her.

She is definitely not someone you want to piss off, especially after seeing her turn the bombardment from Boros’ spaceship back on itself without even breaking a sweat.

The self-proclaimed rival of Saitama, this ninja is incredibly fast and his skills usually make it easy for him to win fights.

In the end, both he and Saitama both got the challenge they wanted by finding an opponent who could challenge them on equal footing.

Mumen Rider is a true hero in every sense of the word and, despite only being a C-Class hero, he is by far the most humble, hard-working, and honorable in the whole association.

While he may not be able to take out enemies with a single punch or stand up to the most dangerous threats, that doesn’t stop him from trying.
