Blast

When Humanity truly needs saving, he will definitely come.

Blast (ブラスト, Burasuto) is a S-Class Rank 1 professional hero for the Hero Association. His whereabouts are currently unknown.

Appearance
Blast has a spiky black hair and wears a superhero suit with a cape similar to Saitama's. Unlike Saitama's suit, however, there is a fiery contour around the zipper.

Personality
Nothing is known of Blast's personality, but as evidenced by Child Emperor's reactions, Blast has a tendency of not showing up to the Hero Association meetings. Like Saitama, he considers his job as a hero more like a hobby.

History
'The following section contains Webcomic spoilers. You have been warned, manga-only readers.'

Experimentation
At some point 18 years ago, Blast saved Tatsumaki from a monster. Blast then encourages Tatsumaki to use her powers when in danger again.

Alien Conquerors Arc
During the S-Class meeting Child Emperor mention Blast's absence and was later confirmed by Sitch who mention his unknown whereabouts.

Abilities and Powers
Being the highest ranked hero of the Hero Association, it can be presumed that Blast is a very powerful S-Class hero.

Fubuki mentions that Blast is "the one at the top of all heroes" during her talk with Saitama in his apartment, putting Blast alongside King in terms of power. However, as King is revealed to be only an ordinary human, Blast's strength is unknown.

Sitch also mentions Blast would be required to stop a God level threat.

Quotes

 * "Because...Bla-...On second thought, No."- Tatsumaki
 * (To Tatsumaki after saving her) "When the time comes, don't go expecting someone to come save you."

Trivia

 * Blast was the reason Tatsumaki became a hero, emulating Saitama who could convince people to be like heroes.
 * Blast is the first known human to become a hero in the series, as he was already fighting Mysterious Beings when Saitama was only 7 and 15 years before the creation of the Hero Association.
