* SmallNameBigEgo: While he's not a small name and is actually quite powerful, he thinks that he's the WorldsStrongestMan by virtue of being the [[AuthorityGrantsAsskicking king of the seas]] since all life originated from the sea, never mind that there are many more heroes and monsters out there that outclass him. Saitama quickly proves him wrong.

* {{Expy}}: He's a parody of Freeza from ''Franchise/DragonBall''. An EvilOverlord with a big battleship, a QuirkyMiniBossSquad and restrictive forms who is acting on TheProphecy.

* {{Expy}}: He's a parody of Freeza from ''Franchise/DragonBall''. An EvilOverlord with a big battleship, a QuirkyMiniBossSquad and restrictive forms who is acting on TheProphecy. His armor and various forms in turn are based on Saiyans in general and Brolly in particular, with his spiked hair and his heavy emphasis on long, baggy white pants, and armor that is a power limiter. He even grows his spiked hair longer in his "most powerful form", similar to Super Saiyan 3. And much like Super Saiyan 3, the form is explicitly taxing on his body, forcing him to only use it to end fights quickly due to how rapidly it drains his energy.

* OutsideContextProblem: Before and after their introduction, all Monsters in the series at least originated from Earth, either as altered humans, artificial beings or strange yet naturally occurring species. The fact the Dark Matter Thieves are aliens means they have nothing in common with other villains, having come from their own worlds which likely follow different rules of biology and setting. No-one saw them coming, save the soothsayer who predicted "The Earth is in Trouble!" and [[AmbiguousSituation even then she may not have been referring to the aliens]]. And Lord Boros is so powerful, '''no-one''' other than Saitama is capable of standing up to his planet-busting power. The only other being to be more mysterious and dangerous than them is God, whom nothing concrete is known about.

* MindOverMatter: Claims to be the most powerful telekinetic in the universe. Along with having enough power to create gravity wells, he can nullify friction so that projectiles launched by his powers can accelerate at sub-light speeds.

* SmugSnake: Calls himself the greatest telekinetic in the universe. Saitama is unimpressed, though, and his shown feats are not even on level with those displayed by Tornado of Terror (admittedly, he may be holding back to avoid at least obliterating his own ship [[BadBoss if not his allies]]).

* VolcanicVeins: Appears on him when his [[PowerLimiter power-limiting]] armor is broken, letting his immense energy run loose. He then gets what amounts to a "color-inverted" version when he uses [[SuperMode Meteoric Burst]], along with a PowerUpFullColorChange -- that is, the parts of his body that used to be dark and non-glowing are now glowing a bright white, while the formerly glowing veins now seem to be glaringly dark in comparison.

** In the manga however, he does get to fight against Flash and Sonic and proves to be just as dangerous as described. He also holds one of the Mysterious Cubes, which is how God imbues his targets with His power. Whether or not he will suffer the humiliation of a OneHitKill from Saitama, remains to be seen.

* DoNotTauntCthulhu: Once Garou sees through God's disguise, he starts to mock him, but God points out the folly of touching him. In the very next scene, Garou is almost killed by the energy overflow. Fortunately, God's intent wasn't lethal at that particular moment.

An expy is based on a single character, and again, the author has explicitly acknowledged that that's who he's based on, not just "These characters are sorta similar"


* {{Expy}}: Considering the hidden Ninja Village he was running was inspired by ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'', the Ninja Village Leader has similarities to two villains from the franchise, such as [[https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Orochimaru Orochimaru]] (being the founder of a hidden Ninja Village) and [[https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Kakuzu Kakuzu]] (grafting body parts of his enemies onto his own to grow stronger).
