Y'know, there's something that I've noticed about the One-Punch Man series. Despite it being a parody anime series of all the badass Shonen anime ever made (DBZ, Naruto, One Piece, Bleach, Fairy Tale, etc.) it actually has a very good storyline and good life lessons. I've noticed that Saitama represents a person who seemed like an ordinary average joe just trying to live an ordinary average life. But after he did one incredible thing fighting the crab man who was trying to kill that kid), and despite having difficulty accomplishing it, he suddenly realized what he wanted to do with his life. This can relate to many MANY people in this world who realize that they have a talent for something. And just like those people, Saitama had to work long and hard to master that talent. He trained vigorously and pushed through limits to be the best he could ever be with this talent. But when the time came for him to show off his talent, he didn't seem to pleased with it, or felt like it wasn't much of a challenge. l've seen countless writers, artists, musicians, etc. always complain about their own work, how they think it just isn't good enough, despite how amazing it truly is. And even where they do appreciate their own talent, they do run into many people who think differently. Remember, once Saitama started being a hero, people never took him seriously. Despite having such immense strength, speed, and durability people thought he was cheating or being a fake. Even when he obliterated a massive meteor that would've killed millions of people, they still chastised him because he caused many meteor fragments to destroy multiple buildings and property. (Even though NOBODYwas even hurt or killed!) They didn't even stop to realize that they'd all would've died if it wasn't for him. Even other heroes were trying to put him down, to make him feel ashamed of who he was and of his amazing strength. This shows that even if you could be the best artist, the best musician, the best writer, ect. there will always be people who will not fully appreciate what you do. There will still be people who insult you in life despite all the good you do. But you know what? This is where the biggest lesson of the series comes in. Saitama was still recognized by other characters. Genos, Muman-Rider, The King, Bang, Fubuki, all recognize Saitama as a very useful powerful fighter. They're the friends who stick with Saitama and support him, helping him continue his campaign to be a hero. But the strongest supporter of Saitama is himself! Saitama himself gives zero f---- about what yelled back and made them realize how stupid they were all being from complaining about being alive and losing property as opposed to losing their own lives! people say about him! W hen people yelled at him about the meteor, he He's also very selfless. Saitama knows he's OP as f---! He knows he's stronger than the majority of heroes. And yet he allows them to gain credit for most of his work. When he killed Deep Sea King, he told the entire crowd of people, who at this moment where cheering for him; boasting at how amazing he was. But Saitama only deniecd their praise and told them thatall the credit goes to the other heroes who couldn't even phase Deep Sea King. This is why I love this series! It's a parody, but it also has a good story with actual life lessons in it! It's a unique series and I will always support it. And I highly recommend those who haven't seen it to give it a look. I'm sure it'll entertain you just as much as it has me.

in fact…..honestly….just having a tough battle isn´t Saitamas priority. he just feels depressed since he essentially achieved everything he ever wanted: To be a Hero that defeats the Monster.

If he would ever truly wanted a tough battle he propably would have ended up like Boros: laying waste to everything just for the thrill of a fight after becoming the strongest. Saitama would love a equal Opponent, but for the most part he is just a man that got what he wanted and lost his Passion in exchange.
