Plot Summary
Follows the life of an average hero who manages to win all of his battles with just one punch! This ends up being the cause of a lot of frustration as he no longer feels the thrill and adrenaline of fighting a tough battle. Maybe all of the hard training to become strong wasn't worth it. After all what's so good about having an overwhelming power?
