### Summary
Having bluntly rejected the humbled Suiryu's plea for discipleship, Saitama is clearly scarred by the experience of having one high-maintenance apprentice already. As the battered martial artist contemplates a new path as a hero, he has a second, coincidental run-in with the source of his newfound inspiration. While readers muse on whether therapy or a relationship might cure Saitama's deep-seated boredom, the hero himself remains comically oblivious, more concerned with mundane problems than the profound effect he has on those he saves.
