Summary of One Punch Man (OPM) Chapter 30
Chapter 30 dives into the fallout from the meteor disaster. Even though Saitama saved the city, the public focuses on the destruction, and other heroes like Tanktop Tiger try to twist the story to steal credit or discredit Saitama. As a fan, it is both hilarious and frustrating to watch, especially when you know just how much Saitama did behind the scenes. Genos, on the other hand, proudly defends his master, deepening their bond. We also see Saitama’s internal struggle, as he starts to realize that being a hero is not just about saving people, but about dealing with public perception and politics. The humor in this chapter is sharp, especially as Saitama brushes off the drama and moves on with his life. But underneath the laughs, there is a real sense of loneliness and disconnect that makes Saitama a compelling character. This chapter perfectly captures why fans love One Punch Man — it balances absurd comedy with moments of genuine heart and reflection.
