'One-Punch Man' Episode 7 Spoilers: Saitama's Challenge
Following its viral and massive success as a manga series, "One-Punch Man" is already in its seventh chapter as an animated series and in the upcoming episode titled "The Supreme Disciple," Saitama is set to face a huge challenge.
In a world where heroes need to be registered and should be known for their heroic acts, Saitama seems to be on his way to a downward spiral. In the previous episode, he was able to take down a vengeful Speed of Sound Sonic with his usual one-punch attack.
Saitama is a C-class hero in the City of Z, meaning, he is supposed to exert more efforts as a hero to remain on the list of names boasting to be part of the Association. Due to his "boring" one-punch ability, he found himself lazy and seemingly tired of the hero life as he finds no satisfaction in defeating enemies with a single punch.

Also, in episode 6, two class A heroes, Spring Mustachio and Golden Ball, were sent by the Association to investigate the truth behind abnormally high rates of monster-related attacks in Saitama's city. The mission means Saitama's lazy days may be over and he may be in for another challenge.
In the upcoming episode, Yibada says "The Blizzard Bunch" will be featured but just as unpredictable as the series has already been famous for, no other details have been revealed.
"One-Punch Man" tells the story of not only a hero who faces issues because he has gotten too strong, but tells the naturally humorous stories of various villains such as Vaccine Man in the first episode, who looks like a purple version of Piccolo and how he was sent by mother Earth to extinguish man for his atrocities against nature.
The series also reaches deep into viewers' hearts as it tackles the struggles that some people can very much relate to — the ability to make everything possible for others but no power to help one's own self.
"One-Punch Man" episode 7 airs on Monday, Nov. 16.
