One-Punch Man
A satirical explosion of neon-lit absurdity and existential silence. It is the crushing weight of invincibility, a golden god trapped in a beige world of grocery sales and profound, soul-killing boredom.

One-Punch Man - Easter Eggs & Hidden Details

Easter Eggs

Mob Psycho 100 References

Saitama is frequently seen wearing hoodies or shirts with 'Mob' written on them, a reference to ONE’s other major series, Mob Psycho 100. Conversely, Mob is seen reading One-Punch Man manga in his own series.

The 'OK' face source

The iconic, simply drawn 'OK' face used in the anime during the Boros fight is a direct panel-for-panel recreation of ONE's original, less detailed webcomic art style.

Video Game Cameos

In the background of several scenes, characters resembling fighters from Street Fighter and Overwatch (like a Tracer-lookalike) can be seen during Hero Association gatherings.
