‘Heroes getting brutally beaten to the brink of death’ But they never actually die, do they? Just like many other series, you never actually fear for these characters’ lives because you know their plot-armour will always allow them to survive in the end. As for innocent civilians dying, any old Shōnen manga can do that. OPM never truly shows the effects of war or how scary and sad the deaths of people is. This in particular is a terrible argument for why OPM is ‘serious’. I agree Saitama will most likely meet his match one day, and I think it will probably be Blast. He seems like the best candidate to be an antagonist right now, he is mysterious, very strong and ONE seems to have started building some backstory/character for him (in the Tatsumaki vs Saitama fight for example). I am guessing ‘when humanity is in peril’ will have some relation to a fight between the Neo-Hero Association and the Hero Association, and he’ll probably make his grand appearance then.
