"The epic superhero story that asks the question, 'What if Superman got really, really bored with his job?'" ~ Honest Trailers Anime - One-Punch Man

Script[]

From the author of the viral hit Mob Psycho 100 (One), and the studio behind series like Ninja Scroll, Death Note, and Chobits (Madhouse), comes the epic superhero story that asks the question, "What if Superman got really, really bored with his job?"

One-Punch Man

Enter the ridiculous world of One-Punch Man, where destruction is all you see, from City A to City Z, and join humanity's only defense: the Heroes Association, a mix of the Justice League and the DMV, where good guys are sorted by rank and popularity, instead of, you know, actually doing anything heroic.

Meet two unlikely heroes just trying to get by: Saitama, a guy who can handle any physical punishment imaginable... but is powerless against life's little annoyances; and his sidekick Genos, the humorless cyborg with the body of Iron Man, and the face of Nick Carter. Swooooon. (pulls up a poster of Nick Carter)

Watch these two unite for epic battles against anime's greatest knock-offs, like... Dragon Ball Z knock-offs (Vaccine Man), Attack on Titan knock-offs (Beefcake), and Godzilla knock-offs (Ancient King), as Saitama defeats them all with a single punch, in the superhero equivalent of "hit it and quit it". (montage of Saitama taking out various foes with one punch) What, you were expecting more than one punch? F*ck you! It's in the title!

Watch the ridiculous action unfold, with some of the best animation that Madhouse has to offer, and watch everything get beautifully destroyed in excessive detail, as enemies are exploded into chunks, buildings are demolished into rubble, mountains have holes blown into them, alien ships are crashed into cities, the Moon is kicked apart, and the most epic hit of all: softly tapping a ninja in the baaalls. (shows Sonic accidentally run his crotch into Saitama's fist, causing him to groan in excruciating pain)

So don your cape and/or bewb sweater (zooms in on Saitama's sweater, which reads "OPPAI", along with a crude drawing of breasts), put on your plainest face, and get ready for the anime that you never knew you needed, as One-Punch Man turns all the action anime tropes you knew on their heads, while staying true to what you really want: gratuitous violence and action.

Starring: Opposite Day Krillin (Makoto Furukawa/Max Mittelman as Saitama); Gender Swap Android 18 (Kaito Ishikawa/Zach Aguilar as Genos/Demon Cyborg); Naruto Weeb (Yūki Kaji/Erik Kimerer as Speed-o'-Sound Sonic); Pretty Pretty Offensive (Masaya Onosaka/Ray Chase as Puri-Puri Prisoner); Wacko Witch of the West (Aoi Yūki/Marieve Herington as Tatsumaki/Tornado of Terror); Daily Commuter Man (Yūichi Nakamura/Robbie Daymond as Satoru/Mumen Rider); Crab People Crab People (Yukoitoshi Tokumoto/Tom Fahn as Crablante); and Yugi-Only One Eye (Toshiyuki Morikawa/Chris Jai Alex as Lord Boros).

Premature Eradication Man

The  for One-Punch Man was 'Premature Eradication Man'.

The honest title for One-Punch Man was 'Premature Eradication Man'.

So, all I have to do to be as strong as Saitama is 100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups, 100 squats, and run a 10K every day? Eh... I'd rather be fat.
