Garou vs. Watchdog Man is the battle between the S-class hero, Watchdog Man, and the monster hero hunter, Garou.

Prologue
Several monsters come to attack Watchdog Man, but Watchdog Man manages to effortlessly pummel them with his paws. Eventually, a total of 30 monsters are killed by Watchdog Man, and Watchdog Man is standing atop the corpses of these monsters. Besides him, hundreds people watch in awe and amazement while taking pictures with their phones. Standing in the middle of this crowd, Garou watches this scene unfold. Garou realizes that other monsters, presumably from the Monster Association, and continues to watch while other monsters come to attack Watchdog Man. He, along with the other citizens, is impressed by Watchdog Man's physical abilities and sees Watchdog Man effortlessly deal with these new monsters. Despite this, he is confident that after getting to observe Watchdog Man's movements and notes that he has no special techniques of any sort. Garou declares that it is Watchdog Man's turn to be hunted, and the hero hunter attacks the hero, beginning their battle.

Battle
Watchdog Man notices Garou, and then off-screen, manages to deal Garou some nominal damage in a short period of time. The citizens of City Q run away while this battle takes place, and Garou takes a stance as he prepares to go on the offensive. Garou attacks the hero with his Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist, but Watchdog Man is able to intercept all of the hero hunter's blows while still holding back. Garou is infuriated when he see's that Watchdog Man is practically shaking with his paws. Garou is then dealt a huge blow to his face, and the hero then follows up by erratically jumping around, flipping multiple times and landing several blows which Garou is unable to defend himself from. After being pummeled like this, Garou realizes that he's no match for Garou and that he severely underestimated the hero's abilities, so he decides to retreat. However, Watchdog Man chases him throughout the city, but lets the hero hunter be once he leaves Q-City.

Aftermath
Heavily injured, Garou reflects on how much he underestimated Watchdog Man's abilities, noting that Bang never taught him how to fight against non-humanoid monsters, meaning his Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist is still incomplete. Despite the loss, Garou is actually excited instead of frustrated, for to him, this means he has ample room to grow and become even stronger.
