Chapter 174 (Online)

"Beauty" (華, Hana, Tonari: 219) is the 174th chapter of the One-Punch Man manga series.

Summary
Being driven through a mountain road, Fubuki is asked by Eyelashes why she is going to an unknown location, along with the entire Blizzard Group, to which she replies she is meeting someone and violence may occur. Elsewhere, in R-City, Sweet Mask is informed by a director of a new upcoming idol group consisting of seven members, hoping he can give them advice for success. Sweet Mask ignores them and continues looking at his phone, watching the security footage of Saitama destroying Bofoi's defense robots. After hearing harsh words from the hero deriding their worth, the members of the group start arguing with him, to his annoyance. Without warning, they feel an overwhelming chill that startles them into silence. Sweet Mask explains it as their instincts warning them of how they are too biologically different to him, before he flatly states that they do not have the beauty of overwhelming power, unlike Saitama.

Inside his apartment, Saitama meets with and greets fellow A-Class heroes Chain'n'toad, Butterfly DX, and Forte, who are also his neighbours. Forte claims he is the senior of the apartment as the first to move, though Saitama notes that the place only opened two weeks ago. The three heroes begin hanging out with Saitama, to fully introduce themselves to him; Saitama learns that Chain'n'toad is a martial artist who wears headgear to be more popular with kids.

Butterfly DX is surprised to hear that Saitama has never heard of him despite his popularity. He changes into his hero attire while listing his TV appearances, only to be told that Saitama has only watched the weather and disaster channels, since his old apartment only had public broadcasts. Forte states that he listens to music in battle to fight with rhythm. Saitama remains unimpressed, causing the angered Forte to threaten him to a fight outside.
