'One-Punch Man': Why Genos will always remain the sidekick who fails every single time
'One Punch-Man' is a very self-aware cartoon, and its creator, ONE, began his comic journey online in 2009 through a series of webcomics, which quickly reached over seven million followers in a span of three years. His popularity saw his creation come to life when he was approached by famed illustrator and manga-artist, Yusuke Murata, and if you've seen ONE's original drawings back in 2009 (which are hilarious in their own right), you'll know why ONE is one of the biggest names in manga history.
The anime version, spun as an adaptation from ONE's manga series, soon garnered worldwide fame about the superhero for fun, who is able to annihilate the numerous enemies he encounters with just one punch. A spoof on real superheroes in the manga universe at that time, OPM is easily one of the funniest and most entertaining pieces of work from the Japanese comic world.
