'One-Punch Man' Episode 8 Spoilers: 'Metal Knight' Comes in the Eighth Episode
The lazy hero's story continues with the coming of Bofoi, a.k.a "Metal Knight," in the eighth episode of "One-Punch Man."
The previous episode revealed how the Hero Association worked with various levels of danger for the heroes to determine how they can deal with a particular situation. Titled levels were introduced, including the Dragon and Tiger levels.
Episode 7 also showed how powerful Genos can be. While he was placed in a quite tight spot in the face of a meteor coming toward him and the city, he ripped a part of his chest and inserted it in his arm to stop the meteor from destroying his people. It is the first time that Genos was able to redeem himself after Saitama destroyed Mosquito Woman for him.
While Genos was busy trying to stop the meteor, the Tanktop brothers spent their time trying to convince Saitama that he wasn't the hero everyone thought him to be. Saitama somehow already knew even before the brothers tried to take him down that he didn't deserve to be a hero since he has been lazy. In a predictable turn of events, Saitama ended up saving City Z from the doom that the space asteroid posed.
With the new episode at hand, a Class S rank 7 hero known as "Metal Knight," but also called Bofoi, will be on the rise. Episode 7 revealed that he doesn't want to have anything to do with saving lives. Instead, he just wants to see how his upgrades and powers can do him well.
In the upcoming episode, Bofoi will face a villain who claims to be the "Deep Sea King," or the King of everything on the ocean. The Metal Knight thinks the self-proclaimed king is cocky and needs a taste of his own medicine. According to Yibada, the preview trailer for the upcoming installment ends with Bofoi thinking of how his battle with the king of the ocean would turn out.
Saitama and his co-heroes in the Hero Association continues in episode 8 of "One-Punch Man," airing on Sunday, Nov. 22.
