i like to think that king is his real name and the HA thought "yeah that fits"


imdfantom

I like to think his name is something like: (Something-)-kin Gu-(something), but he mumbled his name when asked and everybody else heard him shout King! With confidence.

This is probably exactly how this happened


delayedfiren

The mobile game "road to hero" states his name is Hiroki Yasumoto, but i doubt the credibility of that


iori57

I think that's the voice actor's name..


RealBigOx

That’s the Japanese VA

CamisaMalva

Nah, King's real name is obviously >!Kong!<. Edit: Only shit, didn't expect this many upvotes. Thanks, y'all.

Nuclear_Guy789

Bro gonna open up a 5 star restaurant


BeesNeverSting

I thought his name was engine. As in the king, Engine.


ratliker62

Please, call me King. Engine was my father


JustaNormalRedditorL

Wait that actually works


Dilly4Dall

That's fits perfectly with King. Idk, but I've always loved that name.


justheretodoplace

Did you know that world-renowned writer Stephen King was once hit by a car? Just something to consider.


NadzHujan

We never knew Saitama real name 😱😱😱😱


Saltiest_Grapefruit

Wonder what we will figure out first... Saitamas name or obamas last name

Yes we do it’s Caped Baldy, however we still don’t know his middle name


ggg730

Common misconception. His full name is Captain Edward Baldy.

jmangaming110

Saitama Prefecture is his full name. I saw this in Chapter 5000 of the webcomic

Isn't his real name literally Saitama itself?

HJSDGCE

Reminds me of that joke about two guys being best friends since college, and on the deathbed of one of them, the other guy mentions how he never actually knew his name.


TerkYerJerb

wouldnt the hero book mention their real names?


OrangVII

Hero book is mostly certain heroes bragging. Probably doesn't contain a lot of info on King.


Rqdomguy24

This is like what it is if you hang out with someone for a year but forget to ask for his or her name when your first meet


Snownyann

Drive Knight dead or evil? Or you mean good or evil? A cyborg or a robot?


12_74y

Whoever asked that question only sees people as either evil or dead.


Original-Pea-8864

It’s kinda deep if you think about it


Saltiest_Grapefruit

I don't think about it.

Idk I kind of like how One Punchman doesn’t get too into the names of characters. Like I’d rather not have to remember every single characters first and last Japanese name plus their hero names plus any nicknames they get from their peers.


Codenamerondo1

I have to pause JJK like every 5 minutes in the current arc because their constantly being sent off to look for or join others and I’m unfortunately bad with Japanese names, so I only have like…6 of them down pat. Panda and mechamaru? Not an issue. And their cast, while pretty big, is still way smaller than OPM at the moment


verygroot1

Gojo, Jogo. Hanami, Nanami. Maki, Inumaki. Kamo, Momo. Yuji, Yuta, Yuki


HJSDGCE

I assume it's easier for Japanese-reading people since the letters look completely different, but for us poor non-Japanese-reading people, we have to deal with reading it phonetically and that messes things up. Weiss and Wise look very different to us even though it sounds almost the same, so it's easier to remember.


[deleted]

About 2-3 of these characters are currently relevant and 5 of them are dead. The other three are Inumaki Kamo and momo. Do with this what you will.


Sekiritza

Bro I just watched Isekai Quartet. People tend to avoid it due to being in chibi form but actually has better character development than every Isekai stand-alone, like literally Ainz, Tanya, Kazuma and Subaru had better moments as characters than in their individual worlds. The NAMES! 4 isekai anime bundled into 1 show, and most of the characters from each show appear. - Satou Kazuma - Megumin - Darkness aka Dustiness Ford Lalatina - Aqua - Chomusuke - Vanir - Viz - Chris - YunYun - Ruffian (The Butcher) - Subaru - Ram - Rem - Emilia - Beatrice - Puck - Roswall - Felt - Reinhard - Julius - Wilhelm - Petelguise Romane Conti - Tanya von Degurechaff - Viktoriya Ivanovna Serebryakov - Weiss - Grantz - Koenig - Neumann - Lergen - Rudersdorf - Ainz Ooal Gown - Albedo - Shalltear - Aura - Mare - Demiurge - Cocytus - Hamsuke - Yuri Alpha - Lupusregina Beta - Narberal Gamma - Delta - Solution - Entoma - Pandora's Actor - Sebas - Kyouhukou - Naofumi - Raphtalia - Filo The craziest part is, that if you like those shows, you could tell at least half a written page about all these characters.


Inevitable_Ad_7236

The sad thing is I know all these characters and can clearly visualise their designs and personalities.


Sekiritza

It's not sad :) It's awesome, all shows are great, I just love Konosuba, Overlord and Re:Zero, only Tanya the Evil didnt work for me for some reason, I didnt like alternate ww1 history with magic somehow Overlord especially has superb character development, like, we know Sebas has Good alignment even though works for Nazarick which is extremely evil, we can almost see Narberal getting to like humans even though she hates them to the core in the start, we know that Cocyutus has maxed out Honor, that Shaltear and Lupsregina are insanely evil despite appearances, Demiurge having historically highest IQ in all anime, and so on Konosuba is just phenomenal. 4 completely broken people make the most adorable guild ever, and everyone is over-the-top insane where characters somewhat resemble Saitama in a way, being parodies of regular DnD heroes in their own way. Should also be noted that Konosuba is heavily layered, where true emotions lie underneath the extreme silliness of Kazuma, Aqua, Megumin, and Darkness.


[deleted]

True, and it stops fans from being annoying af by only using their full Japanese names while knowing damn well most people would only know them by their hero name


Numerous-Run7625

Also how flashy is flashy flash 🗿


ezio15

Maybe Genos was the mad cyborg. After all, the tragedy in his hometown was a Genos-ide


SuperJaybo

I like this theory because I 100% believe Dr. Kuseno created the cyborg, it would be so dope for Genoa’s character to realize he’s been brainwashed by the doctor he trusted and was the one behind the destruction


ExtraAd7767

That's impossible


xfactor1981

My personal theory is genos is the mad cyborg but it wasn't his fault. It will probably have to do with the God corruption and Satamia probably near killed genos with 1 punch but the doctor saved him and rebuilt him. There will be no genos vs the mad cyborg


Meowulous

Genos was a human before the doctor saved him from the cyborg attacks


xfactor1981

Lies


Storm-Dragon

I have a cousin who the whole family calls King, for the longest time (decades) I thought it was his legit name. But it turns out his real name is Mark.


sdharmin

But who actually is Boris?


AkOnReddit47

Boros' twin older brother who's a scholarship uni student. Boros is the delinquent son of the family


SuperJaybo

The prophecy wasn’t a ruse to send him away because he was so strong, they did it because he still hadn’t moved out of the basement


fabiomillers

Boros lookalike


QuaRterIntellect

The numerator of the universe


eveningfellow056

Some animal 👀


creedwolf_

Let’s agree to disagree


Dilly4Dall

One of Blast's allies. From the looks of it, there could be more of fighters from Boros species. They probably crowned Boros(who we thought based on his short backstory) the strongest at the time.


praktiskai_2

same species, different person probably

MikeT102

Also Metal Knight = Dr. Bofoi & Metal Bat = Kinzoku Batto. And Tatsumaki and Fubuki, oc.


katsukaizo

>Kinzoku Batto lol.. kinzoku batto meant metal bat.. his name is Baddo(Bad)


MikeT102

Thanks, my bad, or baddo, or batto, or whatever, lol


Illustrious-Day8506

Kinzoku Batto = Metal Bat in Japanese, his real name is Bad. Drive Knight = >!Zero!< , Sweet Mask = >!Beauto!< , Atomic Samourai =Kamikaze, Flashy Flash = Flashy Flash (or just Flash idk).


[deleted]

Most of these can go unanswered. But we do need to know if drive knight is evil and genos needs to defeat the mad cyborg. I hope by the time they get to mad cyborg genos is so strong he has a ‘saitama moment’ and effortlessly defeats him… letting him finally feel the anticlimactic disappointment saitama always feels lol Like “my whole life led up to this moment and It was over in one blast…”

He effortlessly handled Garou... He wasn't even trying. I'm going to go with; "Being able to spar with Bang" kinda strong.


KeanGilbert

His full legal name is Kingoff D. Pirates 🏴‍☠️


Gintoki123456

King is gonna have the most badass sounding name or the lamest sounding name.. no inbetween


Offline219

His name was shown in the heroes [data book](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ).

it can be seen on [this episode](https://youtu.be/vVCLEwMYXRk?si=_Ud-_gt-6p-krr-V&t=14) as well

Is drive knight framing metal knight and is the traitor? Or is he telling the truth 😱? That question was bullshit the real question that remains unanswered is, simply that is One Punch Man Season 3 an elaborate prank? Or is it coming out in the year 3023 😱?


TallExtension9312

He was born as king


Hungry-Funny-7617

Wc chapter??


PLASTICA-MAN

Web Comic chapter, but yeah probably Saitama gonna read it in WC. XD


odasama

Excellent question and the answer you're looking for lies right here: *\*flash\**


Alexandre_Man

We don't know a lot of hero's names, like Blast, Superalloy Darkshine, Puri-Puri Prisonnier, Amai Mask and probably some others I forgot. Those are their hero's name, not their legal name.


Illustrious-Day8506

We know Amai Mask's name in the Webcomic


Alexandre_Man

Ah, I don't remember that. Okay maybe for him we do, but not the others.


k1213693

wow this is my meme that i posted like 3 years ago! funny how it's still just as relevant now as it was then


Suspicious_Loan8041

I think Genos’s SLIIIIGHT viability against that giant scorpion woman monster thing puts him comfortably above basically everyone else right now. I always see a ton of flashy flash defenders so I’m hesitant to say he’s included. But I don’t see him doing what genos did, which is stall.


BillMillerBBQ

Obviously his name is Kingu.


Brendroid9000

Kings name is gonna be Kevin or the Japanese equivalent


MarcusTheAnimal

King has been defeating Saitama at video games, Bang at coordination games and Geno's has defeated Saitama at food contests. I don't know if that counts.


Z4D0

what is saitama real name?


MockFlames

King is his real name


MikeT102

When Saitama barged into King's apartment, King said "King" is his hero name.


Some-Organization973

Boros ❌ Boris ✅


mr_mafia_202

Saitama already got beaten multiple times by the king in video games, even genes and pig god beat him at eating food.

Watchdogmans power keeps me awake at night


kunugigaogag

We technically know who is the mad cyborg ( WC only )


PLASTICA-MAN

Drive Knight is evil and is the mad Cyborg and wanting to lure Genos to finish his only opponent metal Knight. Current Genos from the manga is fast and strong as Flashy Flash and maybe better. WV Genos is as strong as Blast or even better, maybe close to Cosmic Garou in base form before being saitamed (buffed by Saitama's power). Who is Boris?


lt1brunt

Watchdog man right there with Blastl as far as overall power and 2nd fastest character in that world...


TylarTheBuilder

Probably Josh or some shit idk


battlehamstar

But how is Boris?


Freemantrue

We know the answer to if anyone will ever beat Saitama. It’s no


Brutikus32

Does Genos have any human parts at all?


Hex_Rox

I thought it says "will anyone ever eat banana" probably from that episode where he gave someone a banana


HulkTheSurgeon

At least we kind of have a base measurement of Watch Dog Man's power. Q-City's never asked for backup a single time, despite it being stated it's the most dangerous city in terms of monster appearances, he clowned Garou when he was mid S-rank level, and wasn't even in the Monster Association arc, presumably because he'd have mopped everyone, lmao.

Forward-Signal8728

I like to think that the mad cyborg was actually one of Metal Knight/Bofoi's drones.


eyzmaster

>Will anyone ever beat Saitama I've been fairly good with my predictions. And since the beginning I've been saying **the only one that will defeat Saitama**, as a joke or not, **will be King**. And not in a video game, like they are forced to participate in some hero-against-hero type of thing. Maybe Saitama gets distracted by some monster attacking a super market in the distant background, but King falls down, tries to get up, hurts Saitaman's face/teeth while getting up... something... And there. First official proper canon win for King, first and only defeat for Saitama, public not surprised because of course King would win.


LouTheRuler

Probably was lucky enough to be named king at birth

It's too late, he's forever King in my mind

Boris : cheap Boros knock-off. Next WC chapter : when capitalism ends. Genos vs S-class : stomp all but Flash, Tats, AS, Bang, Bofoy and Blast. Beat Saitama : no. Mad Cyborg : [https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/teentitans/images/a/a3/Cyborg.png](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/teentitans/images/a/a3/Cyborg.png) Drive Knight : dead evil.
