Tatsumaki (One Punch Man)

Tatsumaki, also known as Tornado, Terrible Tornado and Tornado of Terror, is a character from the One Punch Man series.
== Charactah Account ==
Tatsumaki is the S-Class, Rank 2 superhero and the older sister of Fubuki.
Tatsumaki is a petite woman, commonly mistaken for being much younger than she really is. She has a youthful face with wide emerald green eyes and hair that curls up on the ends. She wears a formfitting black dress with long sleeves and four high-cut leg slits that show off her legs and low-heeled black shoes.
Being the second ranked S-Class hero, Tatsumaki is very powerful. She is one of the most powerful heroes and the most powerful esper alive. Fubuki describes her as a monster much like Amai Mask, who chooses not to advance from A-Class to S-Class to not allow weaklings to rank up. Even after witnessing Saitama's display of power in the fight against her, Fubuki is convinced that Saitama is nowhere near her older sister in terms of strength and fighting ability.

== Trivia ==
* Tatsumaki is ranked 6th in the character popularity poll.
* According to the databook:
** What Tatsumaki likes are her sister and training in spacious areas.
** What Tatsumaki dislikes are male heroes who think they're strong and being seen and called a little girl.
*** Despite this, Tatsumaki shows King respect on numerous occasions.
** Tatsumaki's hobbies are unknown.
* Tatsumaki is her real name. The origin of her hero name comes from the Hero Association wishing to honor her terrifying abilities. As a result, "Terror" was added to her name.
* Despite her look, Tatsumaki is in fact 5 years older than her sister Fubuki.
** Lily once mistook Tatsumaki as the younger sister of Fubuki. This is repeated by Do-S during her fight with Fubuki.
* Tatsumaki has a cameo appearance in Chapter 8 of Mob Psycho 100 when describing what espers are.
* ONE has said that Tatsumaki is usually stronger than Mob, the protagonist of ONE's other work, Mob Psycho 100, but if he gets serious, he is not sure.
* Tatsumaki is obsessed with candy apples and goes to festivals just to buy them and has a fear of ghosts because of an incident with Saitama.
* Murata stated that Geryuganshoop's ability to control flying objects should be above Tatsumaki, because he can eliminate the friction between rocks and air. If Tatsumaki throws rocks as he does, her output will be too powerful, the temperature will increase due to friction and pressure, and evaporate the rocks in an instant. Geryuganshoop's psychokinesis can eliminate the friction between objects and air, the rocks will fly at sub-light speed. Tatsumaki can throw very large objects, but there's a limit to how fast she can throw them.
* During a stream when describing what the characters look like in real world, Murata stated that Tatsumaki and Fubuki look French. This is likely referring to their fashion sense, because Fubuki's physical features are based on Japanese references.
* The animation team misinterpreted ONE's intentions when animating the Ancient King fight. ONE only wanted Tatsumaki to drop a big boulder on Ancient King, prompting the Ancient King to have a flashback of the meteor that destroyed his race eons ago and start to scream. The meteor falling was meant to occur in the flashback, not be a feat of Tatsumaki. According to Murata, if Tatsumaki were able to pull the meteor from space, she would have been able to bring down Boros' ship without difficulty.
* In the 2017 One-Punch Man Halloween cover, Tatsumaki was depicted as a typical witch flying on a broom. In the cover, she wears a witch hat, an orange scarf, and orange Jack-O'-Lantern-themed pants, while retaining her black dress. She also wears long striped socks.
* ONE stated that Tatsumaki in her best shape could have beaten Golden Sperm.
