Saitama and Genos begin to rise in the ranks at the Hero Association and it's really great to see their dynamic grow.  Saitama will spout these one liners that are rather profound in such a deadpan and obvious way that have me pause to consider how I value things in life.

The main downside to this series that I've noticed thus far is the character Puri Puri Prisoner.  He's a gay "hero" but he has assaulted men in the past and so he's actually more of a villain because all he cares about is protecting his boys so he can assault them later.  It seems so needless to have his main characteristic be his sexuality.  I think the idea of a hero that goes to prison for breaking the law is actually a compelling thing, but for it to be the one obviously gay character...  It's a shame to vilify that.
