So yeah, we don't know much of Saitama save for him living by himself, aspired to be a superhero when he was young, got his suit from a good friend and is the catalyst for the creation of the Heroes Association. It be cool to know more about his past and I can think of one but it could be cheesy as hell and typical for a hero.

Anyways, let's say he's from an average working family. Has got two brothers and is the youngest. One of them, the middle brother, suffers from an illness and Saitama would always looking after him. Now, as children, they were incredibly fond of watching superhero cartoons and Saitama of course aspired to be one. His brother encourages him to be one someday and asked Saitama to promise that he would be a hero who's strong and has no weakness as Saitama always wanted to be those kind of heroes. Saitama holds onto this promise. When Saitama is a senior (3rd year let's say), his brother becomes gravely ill and is hospitalized. Saitama would often spend everyday in the hospital, looking after his brother. On Saitama's graduation day, his brother mustered enough strength to attend. Days later, the brother passes away, leaving Saitama's family heartbrokened. At this point, Saitama forgets his promise. And now we are introduced to an approximately 22 year old Saitama, a job hunting loner. After defeating Crablante, blah blah blah, Saitama goes home and the fight makes him remember the the promise he made to his brother. Saitama then dedicates his entire time training to fullfil that promise.

Yeah it is rather cheesy and typical but hey, we all want to know more about him right?
