Mysterious Beings



Mysterious Beings (怪人, Kaijin) or Monsters are terms used to refer to sentient creatures that terrorize the cities of the entire planet and pose a threat to society. They have been appearing more frequently in the past 15 years, but humanity still is unaware how most of these creatures came into existence. It is still unknown what their actual purpose is, but it seems that most of these creatures are hostile towards mankind, wreak havoc in the cities and terrorize its citizens.

Mysterious Beings are especially concentrated in Z-City and Q-City. These beings are the reason the Hero Association was founded by Agoni.

Some Mysterious beings have created an organization similar to the Hero Association, possibly to fight them off, showing they can work together if needed to.

Disaster Levels
The attacks by Mysterious Beings have a scale on how destructive the attack is, which goes from Wolf level to God level. Note that the disaster levels are used for all threats to society, not just Mysterious Beings (such as the Giant Meteor). However, even with similar disaster levels, some beings are stronger. Such as the Giant Crow, and the Sea King. While both demons, the latter can defeat an S class hero while the other can't.

Trivia

 * Despite, being considered a God level threat by fans, during a Q&A section with the original author, it was stated that Boros is above Dragon. This could mean that Boros is in an unknown level between Dragon and God or indeed a God level threat.
 * During the Monster Association arc, after becoming a Mysterious Being, Garou claims that he is a Disaster Level God. This hasn't been confirmed nor denied in the series yet.
 * Wolf is never used or even considered a disaster level in the anime.
