So One-Punch man is a manga series that has been around for some time. There are two versions, one where the creator himself does the drawings AFAIK (which look terrible compared to the usual standard but have a unique charm to them) and one where the drawing is made by skilled illustrators.

From the article:

The series revolves around the titular super hero who has trained so hard that his hair has fallen out, and who can overcome any enemy with one punch. However, because he is so strong, he has become bored and frustrated with winning all his battles so easily.

I've been following it for a while and it's pretty funny, can only recommend. I'm excited for the anime.

Sorry for the off topic, but once I had a dream where I had "dynamite fists", and everything I punched would explode. I would punch people in the face in my dreams and their head would explode.

The description you posted made me recall this.

Haha, this is pretty much that fantasy come true. Not as gorey as you probably dreamt it though.

This series is just so absurd because he doesn't care about that ability of his. He uses his punch when he has to but wants to live a normal life otherwise because 1-hit-KO'ing people wasn't as fun as he imagined it to be.

Bumping this because the anime has been airing for ~two months already, 2 or 3 more episodes to go I think. It has generated a lot of hype and is definitely worth a shot if you want to watch a hilarious show. Goes for everyone, from hardcore anime fans to complete casuals.

Really is hilarious. I read the webcomic up to 100 something, really great. AFAIK the anime's production value is really great and the art is similar to Murata's redraw of the webcomic so it's a treat.

I'm thinking of going to the gym but I never feel like I have the motivation because I feel so tired. Maybe Saitama-senpai can help me get motivated..

How do you feel now that Guts finally got off the ship? AFAIK he's been on that ship for the past 8 years. Must've been tough being a Berserk fan during that time, eh? Never read it or watched the anime but I was thinking about it.

The more you go, the less tired you feel! I definitely recommend it, especially if you feel tired a lot

Exercise is a nice way to get my mind off of school and work

Probably but all I wanna do after work is play games, watch shows and blast some music.. maaaan. >_>

But one day I'll go to the gym. Maybe when the company's new huge building finishes which will have a gym.
