One-Punch Man — Chapter 1

Kicking off the journey with One-Punch Man (Official) Volume 1 Chapter 1, readers are buzzing! What’s the first thing many noticed? The glorious irony of a comment section filled with people surprised by the *lack* of comments. "No comments? That's crazy!" seems to be the meta-mantra for this iconic debut. 😉

Beyond the delightful meta-humor, a surprising number of fans found themselves nodding along with Vaccine Man. Yes, really! Several readers actually thought the monster "had a point" about his environmental concerns. Who knew the first villain would spark such relatable debate? 🌎

For many, this isn't their first rodeo. Dedicated fans are re-reading Volume 1 Chapter 1 for the "nth time," unable to resist the "way too good" story and art. Meanwhile, new recruits are jumping in from the anime, eager to see what all the hype is about. ✨

And of course, the central theme wasn't missed: the sheer power of Saitama. The classic quip, "finished in one punch again? they should call him one punch man," encapsulates the hero's defining characteristic perfectly. Little details, like the precise labeling of a character as a "school child," also provided a chuckle. A quick note from one reader to "keep double page real size" shows some are paying attention to the viewing experience too!
