- This article is about the organization. For the chapter, see Chapter 9.
The House of Evolution (進化の家, Shinka no Ie) was an evil organization founded by Dr. Genus to pursue the goal of human perfection through artificial evolution. Every staff member of the organization was a clone of Dr. Genus. Based on the names and designs of their warriors, the House of Evolution's primary focus seemed to be improving humanity through gene splicing with the DNA of other species. It serves as the first antagonist faced by Saitama alongside his new disciple Genos.
Headquarters[]
The House of Evolution is located in a slender, skyscraper-like building with eight floors nestled in a forest, which connects to extensive underground facilities.[1] The above-ground section of the base was destroyed by Genos upon his and Saitama's arrival.[2] The underground facilities include a massive chamber for testing new specimens and a containment chamber used to hold Carnage Kabuto.
Plot[]
Introduction Saga[]
House of Evolution Arc[]
Dr. Genus sends Mosquito Girl to collect blood and find powerful fighters. She attracts the attention of Genos who attempts to destroy her but fails after she absorbs the blood her mosquitos collected. Just as she attempts to kill him, Saitama intervenes. After Saitama defeats Mosquito Girl, Dr. Genus sends six of his creations to capture Saitama. All but Armored Gorilla are killed, and they head towards the House of Evolution. Four hours later, Saitama and Genos arrive at the site. Dr. Genus has set traps in the main building, which fail when Genos destroys the entire structure upon their arrival. Reluctantly, Dr. Genus releases Carnage Kabuto, who manages to defeat Genos but fails against Saitama and is killed.
Aftermath[]
Following the partial destruction of its headquarters and the defeat or death of its strongest warriors at the hands of Saitama and Genos, the organization appears to be effectively defunct. Although the doctor and some of his clones survive, he decides to give up his experiments after witnessing his most powerful artificially evolved creation, Carnage Kabuto, be easily defeated by the abnormally powerful Saitama.[3]
He now runs a Takoyaki shop alongside Armored Gorilla and Mosquito Girl.
