In this story Saitama faces off against a giant purple monster called Vaccine Man. The reader is lead on that this villain is incredibly strong only for Saitama to do one swift punch that vaporises the entire villain. Saitama shouts into the sky in frustration for another measly fight. Saitama is struggling with a existential boredom as he questions what is the meaning of his life. What happens when everything that used to be hard and challenging now boring and mundane? One Punch Man explores that with it's narrative. I predict in the next chapter that perhaps Saitama will find something to distract himself with as right now it seems no matter how many villains Saitama faces it only ends in one punch.
