The designer ONE invented the One-Punch Man superhero franchise in Japan. It depicts the narrative of Saitama, a protagonist who can destroy any enemy with a single blow, so who is tired by a lack of variety thanks to his great power and is on the lookout for a worthy competitor. In early 2009, ONE designed the entire original webcomic version.
In June 2012, Shueisha’s Tonari no Young Jump online started publication an electronic manga adaptation. Yusuke Murata illustrates the comic, and the sections are collected and printed in tankbon editions on a regular basis. There have been 24 volumes published since about December 2021. The remade comic was licensed for English language publication in North America by Viz Media and serialized in its Weekly Shonen Jump digital magazine.
Madhouse developed an animation version of the comic, which aired in Japan from October till December 2015. J.C.Staff produced a second season, which aired from April to July 2019. Viz Media is the North American distributor of the animated series, which debuted in July 2016 on Adult Swim’s Toonami programming block. Season 2 began airing in October of 2019.
Who is Genos?
One-Punch Man’s second main lead is Genos. He is just a 19-year-old cyborg and Saitama’s apprentice. He is constantly striving to increase his authority and battles for truth. Devil Cyborg is his Hero Association codename, and he’s still S-Class Level 14.
Genos is a robotic humanoid about the same size as a normal human. His face and ears, which are formed of artificial body material, resemble those of a regular human, and his pupils have black sclera and yellow irises. His hairstyle is spiky blond, and his eyebrows are as blond. His ears are likewise pierced. Genos’ outfit includes street clothes, with almost all of his topmost body clothing having sleeveless to allow him to morph his hands without difficulty. He possesses a variety of hands, each with different properties and strengths.
What is Genos Age?
Genos, who is 19 years old, is a solemn figure who hardly, if ever, cracks a smile. He is continuously striving to improve himself, and he frequently seeks advice from Saitama in order to attain his objectives. Genos has been incredibly devoted and possessive of Saitama since he became his pupil (who he refers to as “master”). Genos admires and Saitama also admires him, however, this does not prevent him from being annoyed and perplexed by the banal training course Saitama utilized to obtain his abilities.
Genos serves as a humorous contrast to Saitama’s bumbling actions on sometimes, fighting enemies with a variety of special methods, battle strategies, and cybernetic modifications (sometimes receiving horrible damage as a result), just to be outperformed by Saitama with a single blow. Genos feels that there is still a secret behind Saitama’s superpower because of his extraordinary strength. He’s driven to pay close attention to Saitama in trying to determine the key behind his master’s amazing power.
