Saitama

Saitama, also known as Caped Baldy, Bald Cape, Master, The Fist That Has Turned Against God and Fists That Wrong The Gods, is the main protagonist from the One Punch Man series.
== Charactah Account ==
Saitama is the most powerful hero alive. Having apparently trained himself to superhuman condition, Saitama faces an existential crisis as he is now too powerful to gain any thrill from his heroic deeds. He is registered with the Heroes Association as a C-Class Superhero and is tasked to defend Z-City against Mysterious Beings.
Saitama is usually deliberately drawn in a simpler style than other characters, with a very rounded head and only a simple mouth and eyes. When drawn in a more 'action-oriented' style with more detail, Saitama is revealed to have sharp features, dangerous looking eyes, and chiseled musculature. His costume is a plain yellow jumpsuit with a short zipper at the collar and a belt. The costume is finished out by an ensemble of red boots and gloves, and a white cape.
For a superhero, Saitama is rather laid back. Because even the mightiest foes pose no challenge to him, he doesn't take his hero work very seriously. In spite of this, he is constantly searching for an opponent that can challenge him, since his superhero work is beginning to bore him because it's too easy. The combination of his attitude, unstoppable strength, and distinctively simple and 'unimpressive' appearance often cause his battles to become anticlimactic. Saitama will usually allow his opponents to rant about their motives and power up into their strongest forms before suddenly and nonchalantly obliterating them with one punch.

== Trivia ==
* Saitama's hero profile number is 03402.
* Saitama is ranked 1st in the character popularity poll.
** On the other hand, young Saitama is ranked 10th in the character popularity poll.
* Near the beginning of the manga's story, the color of Saitama's cape was red (House of Evolution Arc) but was later changed to white (Giant Meteor Arc).
* Saitama's favorite food is hot pot.
* According to Genos, Saitama's true potential does not lie in his appearance but rather in how he did his best to train himself to become a true hero, causing him to receive his super strength after three years of training.
* Due to his unimpressive appearance, many enemies and allies tend to think that he is weak at first glance; only Carnage Kabuto, Boros, and Orochi could sense a glimpse of his real strength before engaging. Phoenix Man also felt that something was unnatural about Saitama and therefore chose not to confront him out of fear.
* As confirmed in the compus notebook from the limited edition DVD set for season 1, he prefers casual clothing such as flip-flops because they're the easiest to change out of and kick off if a battle happens.
* One-Punch Man author ONE came up with Saitama's rather simplistic design when thinking about how many "cool looking heroes there were."
* Saitama's name is most likely derived from the Saitama Prefecture located in Japan, where ONE currently lives and first started drawing the series.
* Before becoming a hero, Saitama worked part-time at a convenience store. He also used to work at festivals part-time when he was younger.
* As shown on some occasions, Saitama is quite stingy with money, in which he often tries to obtain food through unconventional means, like hunting in the forest or even scavenging some parts of Mysterious Beings as food.
* Saitama still performs his workout routine.
* Murata states that if Saitama had not hit the moon, he would have only needed to blow to propel himself. However, this is just his speculation and has not been stated by ONE.
* Saitama got his suit from an old retired tailor who would repair his track-suit for him, he was embarrassed to wear it at first, but now cherishes it.
* Murata speculates that the limiter is not the secret to Saitama's strength.
* According to the databook:
** Saitama likes seaweed, Chinese cabbage, and new products of dubious value.
* The hidden meaning behind Saitama's cactus is it remains unchanged no matter how it is taken care of.
* Saitama's known class promotions: C-Class Rank 388 (Start) → C-Class Rank 342 (After solving the Sonic event) → C-Class Rank 5 (After solving the Meteor event) → C-Class Rank 2 (Before the Seafolk invasion event) → C-Class Rank 1 (After the Deep Sea King incident) → B-Class Rank 101 (Promoted to B-Class) → B-Class Rank 63 (At S-Class meeting) → B-Class Rank 33 (Between King and Garou introduction and after solving the Dark Matter Thieves invasion) → B-Class Rank 7 (Before meeting Fubuki) → A-Class Rank 39 (After the Monster Association incident).
