12	!!Charanko
13	!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/ToshikiMasuda (Japanese), Creator/ToddHaberkorn (English), Miguel Ángel Leal (Latin American Spanish)
14	!!!'''Debut:''' Chapter 13 (Manga), Episode 10 (Anime)
15	[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/charanko_1150.jpg]]
16
17	Bang's final remaining student, who failed to make any real progress. He was eventually expelled by Bang for his own protection once Garou conducted his hero hunt, but he rashly attempted to defeat Garou himself and was beaten for it. He then gives his Super Fight ticket to Saitama.
18	----
19	* AdaptationExpansion: He receives slightly more prominence in the manga, being the one who (accidentally) convinced Saitama to enter the Super Fight tournament in the first place.
20	* ButtMonkey: He is so insignificant that Saitama initially has difficulty remembering who is, at least at first.
21	* CurbStompBattle: Charanko is a worse than average martial artist living in a world of monsters and superheroes, leading to him being on the receiving end of these quite often.
22	* DoomedMoralVictor: Despite everyone telling him (and perhaps Charanko even realizing) that Garou is too dangerous to mess with and that Charanko is too weak to ever match him in a fight he does it anyway to defend his master's honor. Saitama even mentions to a former disciple of Bang's that Charanko was way stronger than the former disciple (who was second only to Garou in the dojo) because Charanko didn't run, and indeed faced Garou head-on.
23	* HonorBeforeReason: He attacks [[OneManArmy Garou]] head-on even after Bang makes it clear that doing so would end in disaster. It doesn't end well.
24	* HotBlooded: When his master is insulted, he immediately and loudly challenges Genos in a duel, despite Genos being a known S-class hero.
25	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Despite his arrogance, Charanko is not a bad person, as he shows great respect and admiration for his master and would do anything to defend his honor and that of his dojo. Rushing to fight Garou is a prove for this, and this act of courage was enough that even Saitama defended him to a former disciple of Bang, Sour Face.
26	* LoonyFan: Downplayed, but he really admires Bang strength so much that Fang has to reprimend him for saying how he's stronger than Saitama.
27	* OverlyNarrowSuperlative: Was originally the lowest ranking member of Bang's dojo, which was also pretty much what saved him from being trashed by Garou, and subsequently became the top-ranked disciple by virtue of being the only one left.
28	* SmallNameBigEgo: He thought he could take Genos and Saitama in a fight - Genos proved him otherwise. Happened a second time with Garou, even after watching the Hero Hunter defeat the entire Tanktopper Army.

34	!!!'''Debut:''' Chapter 40 (Manga), Episode 4 (Anime)
35	[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/opm_dr_stench.png]]
36
37	The scientist who agreed to turn Genos into a cyborg four years before the story. He supports Genos with repairs and upgrades to his cyborg body, sharing his goal to see the "mad cyborg" brought to justice.
38	----
39	* AdaptationExpansion: He is slightly more prominent in the manga, where he actually meet Saitama early in the Monster Association Arc.
40	* AlmightyJanitor: Despite being the reason Genos can blast apart mountainsides and why he instantly became an S-Class hero, Doctor Kuseno is only seen using his skills to provide Genos with repairs and upgrades.
41	* CoolOldGuy: Appearing to be in his late 60s, he is a very selfless man since he willing to sacrifice his sleep and rest in his senior age to work tirelessly to give Genos the best weapons and upgrades to help mankind.
42	* EarlyBirdCameo: Appeared in Episode 4 fixing up Genos and created the arms that Genos used in the sparring match with Saitama.
43	* GadgeteerGenius: He is a by far the most skilled inventor along with Child Emperor. He can build parts for Genos to blow a whole building away!
44	* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler: He's lethally wounded by evil robots in chapter 140 of the webcomic. In the following chapter, he gives Genos his last words and instructions on how to get his final upgrade before passing on.]]
45	* ImprobableHairstyle: He has a bowl-cut that looks more like a mushroom cap.
46	* NiceGuy: Saitama considers him this after hearing how he gave Genos the ability to taste and convert food to bio-fuel so he can still eat despite being mostly mechanical. Genos certainly considers him one as well, as he was the one who saved his life when he was on the brink of death.
47	* ParentalSubstitute: He is a father figure to Genos, expressing concern for him. He always reminds him of not being reckless all the time and that they are together in their battle.
48	* ScienceHero: Genos refers to him as the 'Doctor of Justice'.

55	[[quoteright:227:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bomb3.png]]
56
57	Bang's older brother. He is a martial artist who masters the Whirlwind Iron Cutting Fist Style, and chose to expel hundreds of students to instead help Bang stop Garou.
58	-----
59	* AlmightyJanitor: He's as strong as his brother, who's S-Class rank 3, yet he's content to spend his days running a dojo and teaching the next generation.
60	* BackToBackBadasses: When he teams up with his brother, Bang.
61	* BareFistedMonk: Like his younger brother, he also uses martial arts in fighting.
62	* BlowYouAway: His martial art style, "Whirlwind Iron Cutting Fist Style" involves manipulating the air to create RazorWind and blow his enemies back with tremendous force.
63	* CoolBigBro: Despite in their old age, he still shows care towards his younger brother Bang.
64	* CoolOldGuy: He's Bang's older brother and he's willing to close down his dojo to help his brother deal with Garou.
65	* CurbStompBattle: [[spoiler:In his younger days, Bomb once effortlessly defeated Bang who attacked him with KillingIntent. Later, Bang was so humbled that he gave up his womanizing and BloodKnight ways, created a new defensive martial art and followed Bomb's footsteps of opening a dojo to train disciples.]]
66	* FantasticFightingStyle: The "Whirlwind Iron Cutting Fist Style".
67	* FeelingTheirAge: He often complains about being too old to be active anymore when hunting down Garou with Bang.
68	* HeroicNeutral: What he wanted is to keep Bang safe out of worry of the danger he goes into for his hero activities, and suggesting him to retire, but he'd still aid much weaker heroes, protecting the weak, and engaging against monsters to prevent them from invading the cities. [[spoiler:He also acted as a WarriorTherapist to Bang back in their younger days when the latter was an ArrogantKungFuGuy]].
69	* OldMaster: He's older than his brother, who is 81. [[WordOfGod ONE]] stated that he's stronger than Bang, and he was able to shatter Centichoro's carapage along with Bang while also taking minimal damage from the giant creature's charge. And later after using up most of his energy to heal Tanktop Master with Fubuki, he was able to hold his own against a sleeping Garou on the surface for a short time.
70	* RazorSharpHand: Is capable of cutting through mysterious beings with his bare hands thanks to his martial art techniques.
71	* RazorWind: His "Whirlwind Iron Cutting Fist" allows him to generate concentric rings of pressurized air that cuts through opponents.
72	* RedBaron: In his youth, he was known as "Wind of Death".
73	* SupernaturalMartialArts: Much like his brother, he has his own martial arts, the Whirlwind Iron Cutting Fist Style. This style allows him to fight on equal rank with Bang despite being even older than him.
74	* WorldsBestWarrior: One of the two greatest martial artists in the world alongside his younger brother Bang.

78	!!Zenko
79	!!!Voiced by: Creator/AyumiMano (Japanese), Creator/JackieLastra (English)

81	[[quoteright:142:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/zenko.png]]
82
83	Metal Bat's younger sister, for whom he has a soft spot.
84	-----
85	* AccidentalHero: Her chopping Bad in the neck stopped him from fighting monster in the area. However, considering it took such little power to make him loose conciousness, Bad was lucky he didn't attempt to get back to fighting. And also if it wasn't for her, [[HeadCrushing Garou's head would look like a wrecked melon from Bat's attack]].
86	* BadassAdorable: Despite being a little girl she stands up to Garou and tells him to leave big brother Metal Bat alone, because he promised to take her to her recital. She then slaps her brother so hard that he passes out [[spoiler: though he had already been severely beaten.]]
87	* BadassNormal: For essentially taking her life in her hands by [[GoThroughMe stepping between Garou and Metal Bat]]. She had no way of knowing whether Garou would respect her rules, but it was all she had to protect her brother with.
88	* BigDamnHeroes: Steps in between Garou and her brother during their fight. Though considering how the fight was going it's unclear who she was preventing from getting killed.
89	* CanonForeigner: A [[GodCreatedCanonForeigner god-created one]] -- the arc she first appears in is only in the redraw, but the story's still credited to ONE and she had been mentioned in the webcomic long before this.
90	* FanGirl: She is one of Sweet Mask. She was annoyed that her brother used his S-Class promotion request for an unbreakable bat rather than for his autograph.
91	* MoralityPet: Metal Bat's not a bad guy, but he'd be more of a {{Jerkass}} if it weren't for her, not to mention more recklessly hot-blooded.
92	* NiceGirl: Seems quite friendly, if a smidge overbearing.
93	* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Because Metal Bat won't commit violence in front of her, her showing up manages to save [[HeroKiller Garou]] from Metal Bat outright slaying him with a sneak attack at the end of a long and grueling fight. This lets Garou end the fight in a solid victory. Conversely, she [[PluckyGirl steps between Garou and Metal Bat]], before Garou can land a killing blow, and she insists that the violence stops since the fight is over. Garou appears to consider it for a moment and decides to walk away.
94	* NoHeroToHisValet: She tends to scold Metal Bat for things like missing her piano recital when his hero work gets in the way. WordOfGod is that she's not the kind to brag to other schoolkids about her brother being an S-Class hero.
95	* NotInFrontOfTheKid: Invoked. Metal Bat promised not to fight in front of her, which she uses to break up his fights when she's nearby.
96	* TsurimeEyes: And quite justified, given her first appearance sees her standing up to Garou. (It helps that they're similar to her brother's, giving her "delinquent eyes" despite being very girly in appearance otherwise.)

99	[[folder:Tareo]]
100	!!Tareo
101	!!!Voiced by: Creator/NatsumiFujiwara (Japanese), Creator/JeannieTirado (English)
102	!!!'''Debut:''' Chapter 48 (Manga), Episode 15 (Anime)
103
104	A young child who loves heroes, and whom Garou uses for his comprehensive Hero Guide. He is later embroiled in the battle with the Monster Association when he's taken hostage.
105	-----
106	* BadassAndChildDuo: Occasionally forms with Garou, being the "Child" to Garou's "Badass".
107	* BigOlUnibrow: To add on to his {{Gonk}} appearance.
108	* {{Fanboy}}: Of the Hero Association.
109	* BullyMagnet: Frequently picked on by kids his age, and forced to do their bidding. Later on, monsters come along and decide he makes for a good punching bag.
110	* CharacterDevelopment: Tareo begins his journey as a weak, timid child who is basically a doormat for the local bullies. By the end, having witnessed true villainy and heroism, and inspired by Garou, he becomes boisterous and confident, and may very well be on the way to becoming a hero himself.
111	* CharacterWitness: [[spoiler:After Garou is finally defeated by Saitama and the entire S-Class plus Amai Mask start baying for his blood, Tareo stalls them by telling that Garou was the one who saved his life when no other heroes were there to save him.]]
112	* {{Gonk}}: He's not exactly cute for a kid, something that Garou lampshades.
113	* TheLoad: In Chapters 81 and 82, Garou would have had an easier time fighting off the eight heroes that were sent after him had he not been trying to protect Tareo from being collateral damage in the fight, as the eight heroes were unaware that Tareo was hiding close by.
114	* MoralityPet: He is pretty much there to show that Garou isn't completely a bad person. Garou is even forced to save him sometimes from being collateral damage by the heroes hunting Garou down and from members of the Monster Association. [[spoiler: When Awakened Garou accidentally kills Tareo with cosmic radiation, he is utterly distraught, and begs Saitama to kill him.]]
115	* NiceGuy: Despite his troubled life, he's unfailingly kind to everyone around him, even if they treat him like crap.
116	* OnlyFriend: Perhaps the only one closest to being Garou's "real" friend. [[spoiler:until Wanganma befriends him after Monster Assocation Arc.]]
117	* ShadowArchetype: He embodies ''everything'' Garou hates about himself, yet paradoxically that is also the reason why Garou grows to care for him so much, which provides a subtle yet deep insight into Garou's character. [[spoiler:Like Garou, Tareo is a kid who's often bullied by others, yet still worships heroes despite the misery he goes through. Garou had no one stick up for him, which led to him becoming a delinquent raging against heroes and society for his misery, but his intervention means that Tareo never goes down the same path.]]
118	* UglyCute: Even with his unibrow, fish lips, and bald spot on his forehead, Murata's depiction of him is bright-eyed, and full of enthusiasm, especially after the Monster Association Arc when he gains new confidence.
119	* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: The hero catalog he carries around has given a lot of intel to Garou on how to track down heroes and finding their weaknesses.

122	[[folder:Waganma]]
123	!!Waganma
124	!!!Voiced by: Ayaka Shimizu (Japanese), Creator/MorganBerry (English)
125
126	The son of Narinki, an executive of the Hero Association. His kidnapping spurs the S-Class heroes into taking down the Monster Association.
127	-----
128	* AllTakeAndNoGive: As mentioned in UngratefulBastard below.
129	* BadassAndChildDuo: With Child Emperor. They're both admittedly children, but Child Emperor is the prodigy hero while he's just dead weight.
130	* BullyTurnedBuddy: Downplayed, he's not much of a "bully" but have acted very selfish towards Tareo. Despite that, he gets fond of him and at the end of an arc invites Tareo to his rich house.
131	* CharacterDevelopment: He is slowly consumed by his guilt for lying about him being the only hostage and what might have happened to Tareo. Then he sees Child Emperor heading back underground to rescue him even though he lost his strongest weapons and has a really close call when a Dragon-level monster emerges and trashes all the heroes left in the surface. He comes out of it humbled and more respectful of others, and in the end of the arc he is seen inviting Tareo to play at his home.
132	* ComplainingAboutRescuesTheyDontLike: Despite the heroes putting their lives on the line to save him, the moment they take damage or run into trouble, he'll whine and insult them to do better.
133	* DirtyCoward: He brags and talks tough when things look to go his way during fights between heroes and monsters, but when they don't, boy is he quick to cry and grovel for the monsters to spare him. Even literarily pisses his pants when [[spoiler:all the surface team heroes are defeated by Nyan, and he realizes he's unable to escape.]]
134	* ItsAllAboutMe: Because his father is one of the main financial investors, he thinks the Hero Association exists to cater to his every need and whim. He even refers to it being "his" Association during a fight.
135	* {{Jerkass}}: He's a SpoiledBrat who seems to think it's a privilege for others to do things for him and can't spare a moment of thanks when they help him or save him. Eventually he becomes JerkWithAHeartOfGold.
136	* JerkassRealization: Despite lying about other's kid location, he feels deeply saddened over it, and is seen weeping with joy upon seeing Tareo being rescued.
137	* MeaningfulName[=/=]PunnyName: "Waganma" is a play of words of "Wagamama", which means "spoiled."
138	* {{Retcon}}: Several redraws work to make him more redeemable with him being nicer to Tareo and more honest to Child Emperor.
139	* SpoiledBrat: Oh yeah. It's even in his name.
140	* TookALevelInKindness: He gets much nicer towards heroes and Tareo later.
141	* UngratefulBastard: Let us count the ways...
142	** Takes Tareo's only piece of food without thanking him, then declares him 'useless' for not having more.
143	** Admonishes Child Emperor for not coming to his rescue quickly enough, though a glare from Child Emperor is enough to shut him up quickly.
144	** Constantly insults Child Emperor during his fights.
145	** Intentionally lies to Child Emperor about Tareo being imprisoned as well, thinking of his own safety. Naturally once he's exposed via Atomic Samurai mentioning seeing Tareo, he gets a DeathGlare from Child Emperor for this before heading back underground to assist the other heroes in exterminating the remaining monsters.
146	*** This is later revised into him admitting the truth to the gathered heroes and apologizing for lying. Child Emperor now thanks him for telling the truth.

155	[[quoteright:181:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bakuzan.jpg]]
156
157	A martial artist and user of the Dark Hell Assassination Style. He is cocky and ruthless, and is said to be a top contender at the Super Fight tournament.
158	----
159	* ArcVillain: He becomes one after Gouketsu leaves the stadium. Though his presence as this is rougly for three chapters.
160	* ArrogantKungFuGuy: He is extremely arrogant during the battle since he states that all contestants in the Super Fight Tournament are a bunch of weaklings. Bonus point for being a martial artist. [[spoiler:He eats a bunch of monster cells all at once with the intent of becoming the strongest monster alive, even after Gouketsu tells him not to, and all it gets him is his death... until it turns out he did survive and became potentially a Dragon-level threat]].
161	* AssholeVictim: [[spoiler: Just like any other monster, few tears were shed when he finally got killed off by Saitama, especially by him being TheBully.]]
162	* BeardOfBarbarism: Has an unkempt goatee and sideburns.
163	* BerserkButton: Fellow martial artists who treat the tournament as sparring and competition. He becomes irate when Saitama does not take on a stance, believing him to be untrained and an insult to fight.
164	* BloodKnight: He is quite bloodthirsty, wanting to kill Suiryu. He proves it again when detailing how he will hurt Saitama with a smile on his face.
165	* TheBrute: Bakuzan is a muscular built man with spiky, dark hair. He is excessively brutal towards his opponents, especially those he feels are not worthy of facing him. [[spoiler:Exaggerated after his transformation into a monster.]]
166	* TheBully: [[spoiler: After becoming a monster, he admits to himself that the only reason why he wanted strength was to pick on those weaker than him. He proves it by torturing a half-dead Suiryu.]]
167	** Even before [[spoiler: his monsterization]], he was this, thrashing his opponents so badly that the referee and medics had to be on immediate standby to call the match and get his opponent medical attention because of how quickly he could, and would, inflict potentially-lethal injuries in a tournament fight. [[spoiler: Becoming a monster merely makes him willing to admit this outright.]]
168	* CurbStompBattle: When Saitama asks for a demonstration of his strength, Bakuzan agrees to comply, detailing exactly how he intends to defeat Saitama, in a brutal, exceedingly cruel fashion. However, he touches Saitama's head and nearly knocks over his wig, causing Saitama to punch him into the air in panic.
169	** [[spoiler: When he transforms into a monster, he doesn't hesitate to land one on Suiryu (weakened after the defeat against Gouketsu)]].
170	** [[spoiler: He tries to do the same with Saitama but, much to his horror, Saitama is unfazed from all his attacks and blows off half of his body, killing him.]]
171	* DrivenByEnvy: [[spoiler:Admits he's always been jealous of Suiryu, which plays a big part in why he chooses to become a monster.]]
172	* FinishingMove: His Dark Hell Assassination Art which involves the following in order:
173	** Devil Cry Low Kick: Kicks his opponent's leg, pulverizing her/his bones so that he/she will never stand again.
174	** Bear Killer Mid Kick: Kicks his opponent's arm to ensure that he/she is unable to retaliate.
175	** Shura Straight Punch: Punches his opponent's body with enough force to blow her/him apart.
176	** Hell Dispatch Chop: Delivers a chop to the opponent's skull to fatally finish her/him off.
177	* {{Foil}}: To Suiryu and even more so, most heroes. While Suiryu seeks strength to have an easy life and most heroes seek strength to protect the innocent, Bakuzan wants to be strong only because he wants to torment everyone weaker than him.
178	* GeniusBruiser: He may be TheBully, but he's still a trained martial artist and is capable of AwesomenessByAnalysis prior to his [[spoiler:monster transformation, to which he's much less analytical due to the power high]].
179	* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: Everytime wee see him having PetTheDog moment, that might showcase Bakuzan is an exaggerated example of GoodIsNotNice, he becomes even worse.
180	** When there's a warning to Super Fight executives that monster are near the stadium, Bakuzan calms them down, saying that if they will enter the stadium, he will take care of them. Later when Gouketsu eventually arrives, Bakuzan just stands and does nothing to help, only observing the situation.
181	** [[spoiler:After Suiryu asks him for his aid in fighting the monsters, Bakuzan looks like he's gonna consider it and commit to a RivalsTeamUp...and then he refuses and chooses to eat a monster cell instead. Once his transformation completes, his first act is to brutally stomp Suiryu]].
182	** [[spoiler:Later when Gouketsu leaves Super Fight, Bakuzan says to Suiryu he might have think too high of himself and Suiryu yet again tries to redeem him... Until Bakuzan says that he just wants to hurt weaker people than him, proceeding to give Suiryu once again quite a beating, driving him too DespairEventHorizon.]]
183	* KarmicDeath: [[spoiler: Subverted. Despite Suiryu asking him to help him fight the monsters after he realizes he can't do it alone, Bakuzan refuses and chooses to eat a bunch of monster cells so he can try and become the strongest monster, which seemingly overloads his body and kills him. Instead, it turns out he survived and even became a Dragon-level threat in the process]].
184	** [[spoiler: DoubleSubverted. While, as a human, he gets a non-fatal MegatonPunch from Saitama, as a monster he is not so lucky. So, becoming a monster was a fatal mistake.]]
185	* MultiArmedAndDangerous: [[spoiler: His monster form has 2 pairs of arms which make his attacks deadlier.]]
186	* NightmareFace: [[spoiler:When he turns into monster, he makes one quite a lot.]]
187	* NotSoStoic: He seems
188	* OhCrap: [[spoiler: When he realises who [[OneHitKO the baldy in cape]] is, he's outright frightened to see him. Doesn't stop him from trying to land [[CurbStompCushion a few hits]] on Saitama before his [[TemptingFate defeat]].]]
189	* PerpetualFrowner: He's always seen with a frown expression, which really hides his sadistic and bloodthirsty tendencies.
190	* SeriousBusiness: He believed that martial arts contests are not meant to be a sport, but rather a place to put one's life on the line. For that reason, he looked down on his fellow martial artists who treat the tournament as sparring and competition.
191	* ShadowArchetype: To Suiryu.
192	* SlasherSmile: He gives a disturbing one right before eating the monster cells, [[spoiler:and after his transformation, is constantly wearing this to showcase his love of tormenting others]].
193	* SoftSpokenSadist: He loves to torment others and barely raises his voice while doing so. [[spoiler:This becomes inverted in his monster form, as he [[EvilIsHammy openly]] loves torturing his victim physically and mentally. He brutalizes a heavy injured Suiryu by rapidly pummeling him as well as taunting him to the point of making Suiryu feel totally hopeless. His love for torment also goes as far as being willing to stomp Sneck in front of Suiryu in order to show that no heroes will come to save him.]]
194	* UnknownRival: To Suiryu. He's envious of Suiryu and wants to beat him to prove he's the strongest, Suiryu gives him only a glance at best.
195	** When Saitama [[spoiler:fights him as a monster]], he keeps trying to remember where he met him before, forgetting he encountered him in the tournament.

199	!!Sour Face
200	!!!Voiced by: Itaru Yamamoto (Japanese), Creator/ArmenTaylor (English)
201	!!!'''Debut:''' Chapter 53 (Manga), Episode 16 (Anime)
202	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sourface.jpg]]
203
204
205	Sour Face was once a disciple of Bang, but left after Garou's rampage in the dojo. Sometime afterwards, he created the Sour Face Style Martial Arts and started his own dojo. He falls for Saitama's disguise and believes he is Charanko.
206	----
207	* ArrogantKungFuGuy: Subverted, while he certainly thinks of himself as strong, he immediately understands how much weaker he is compared to the other contestants. [[spoiler:Further subverted in his unseen fight with Jakumen; not only did he show complete sportsmanship, but he praised Jakumen's efforts after winning the match.]]
208	* BlindWithoutEm: Severely nearsighted and wears [[NerdGlasses thick coke-bottle glasses]] in his casual wear.
209	* BookDumb[=/=]DumbMuscle: Not really a genius. For example, when Saitama loses his wig, Sour Face is the only guy who doesn't understand that was a disguise and Saitama is not Charanko. It's justified however, since he has a short-sighted vision and has to wear big glasses to even watch TV from his hospital bed. And despite all of this, he was able to guess that Wolfman, the person who won last tournament, was actually Garou in disguise.
210	* TheBully: In the past was this to Charanko using him as a training dummy. However, getting beaten up by Garou seems to have mellowed him out and he's now sincerely worried about him when he saw his powerful opponents. Luckily, Charanko was actually [[CurbStompBattle Saitama in disguise.]]
211	** In a retconned chapter of the redraw, he actually attacked Charanko(Saitama)outside the match. However, this is no longer canon.
212	%%* ButtMonkey: He's really not taken seriously.
213	* ClintSquint: His scrunched up and squinted face makes him look mean and imposing...but a bonus page shows that his eponymous expression is simply because he's terribly nearsighted and [[BlindWithoutEm has to squint without his glasses.]]
214	* DirtyCoward[=/=]LovableCoward: He falls mostly in the former category, but he doesn't abandon people. While Bang and Bomb see forming a dojo as a noble past time, Sour Face never technically finished his training with Bang. This is something that even an amateur like Saitama realizes and calls him out on. He fails to understand the point until after the Tournament. He and the other tournament losers [[spoiler:who refused to become monsters]] were still too terrified and weak to make a difference. They decide to follow the heroes to the Monster Association, but become paralyzed by fear. Suiryu says they aren't ready yet to join them, but that he wants to become a hero too someday implying that, someday, Sour Face and the others will be ready as well. [[spoiler:Unfortunately, we know from the Webcomic that Suiryu goes to the Neoheroes which are more corrupt and maybe outright evil compared to the Hero Association, so that might be where he drags the tournament goers to as well.]]
215	* FaceOfAThug: As cartoonishly ugly as he is, he still has the appearance of a dangerous thug. However, he does show genuine concern for Charanko(Saitama in disguise)'s safety before he faces off against Choze, among other things. See JerkWithAHeartOfGold below.
216	* {{Gonk}}: His most noticeable feature is his taut face, strained to the point where it appears that [[JustifiedTrope he has been eating foods that were too sour, and a cleft chin]].
217	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Originally bullied Charanko and still acted quite roughly to him in the present (actually Saitama disguised as him) but also showed surprising consideration such as helping him tie his belt properly, defending him when he was being trash talked by Zakos and showing concern at the opponents he would face. Also, in the one match he participated in, he showed great sportsmanship to Jakumen and praised his defeated opponent.
218	* PerformanceAnxiety: So much that he's completely paralyzed when the announcer introduces him. Of course, this is before he realizes just how strong the other contestants are.
219	* ProdigalHero: He eventually does return to Bang's dojo [[spoiler:along with Garou]] after he loses the tournament. It's likely he resumed his training in preparation of becoming a true hero. Though he still picks on Charanko [[spoiler:which Garou hits him for indicating that their relationship has more or less healed.]]
220	* YoungerThanTheyLook: He's barely even ''twenty.'' That pinched, creased face makes him look like he's at LEAST in his late thirties. He's also rather sensitive about it.

223	[[folder:Choze]]
224	!!Choze
225	!!!Voiced by: Kentarou Tone (Japanese), Creator/DougErholtz (English)
226	[[quoteright:219:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/choze.png]]
227
228	A misanthropic martial artist trained in the Fist Of The Pure Blood Master Race.
229	----
230	* AllGermansAreNazis: He's an ANaziByAnyOtherName in the manga, being born from a clan that values eugenics and genetic superiority, and looks down on other "lesser races". Furthermore, his character design also looks distinctly European to further the connection. [[WordOfGod Murata has stated]] that in the real world, he'd be Russian, though...[[TruthInTelevision not that there weren't any Nazi-Soviet collaborators nor Nazi sympathizers who are Russian]].
231	* ANaziByAnyOtherName: Seemingly invoked intentionally to draw [[HumansAreTheRealMonsters him no sympathy]]. He wants his "superior" race to take over the world and he wants to prove that everyone else is worthless. [[spoiler:He gets worse when he becomes a monster, deciding that all "inferior" beings must be wiped out and that he will eliminate anyone who doesn't pass his "selection process". He even has an attack that's designed to wipe out "inferior races".]] He is defeated by Saitama and [[spoiler: killed by Suiryu.]]
232	* ArrogantKungFuGuy: Choze is an arrogant man that looks down on others. He thinks that his masterpiece genetic material and the careful genetic breeding practices of his clan can make him and his clan superior to other normals and the feeble population of the Earth.
233	* AssholeVictim: [[spoiler: Out of all fighters, he's by far the most rude and evil, and pretty much every participant who was still consious and human cheered on his defeat by Suiryu.]]
234	* CreepyBlueEyes: Possesses these. [[spoiler: They get even bigger and creepier as a monster.]]
235	* CurbStompBattle: Defeats his opponents very easily, then gets defeated with one punch by Saitama, who finds him very annoying.
236	* EmpoweredBadassNormal: Easily kills Rosie, another participant [[spoiler:who became a monster, and eats one of the monster cells to become a monster himself. He is able to have a close fight with Suiryu, who up to this point hadn't had to try at all until he fought Saitama.]]
237	* {{Irony}}: By [[spoiler: consuming a Monster Cell, he ruined the "perfect human" genes he was so proud of.]] This shows that he never really cared about being a "pure" human at all; he just cared about being better than others.
238	* HuskyRusskie: According to [[WordOfGod Murata]], Choze would be Russian in real life. While Choze isn't as huge or bulky as how most Russian men are depicted, he's nevertheless quite taller and muscular than Saitama.
239	* {{Jerkass}}: During combat, he is quite vicious and bloodthirsty as he often beats his opponent to the verge of death. [[spoiler: And he doesn't hesitate to eat a monster cell.]]
240	* KiAttacks: [[spoiler: After becoming a monster, Choze is able to use a technique that projects a powerful energy beam from his horns. It is strong enough to cause Suiryu to struggle while holding it back.]]
241	* KilledOffforReal: [[spoiler:Gets heavily beaten by Suiryu to a point of no chance of recovering, [[AssholeVictim not that many people will miss him.]]]]
242	* KubrickStare: He tends to give these due to his natural round, CreepyBlueEyes. [[spoiler:It gets even creepier and malevolent as a monster.]]
243	* {{Revenge}}: [[spoiler: As a monster, he vows to kill Saitama for humiliating him.]] [[spoiler:Too bad he gets killed by Suiryu beforehand. And even if he ''did'' go up against Saitama again, it'll just be a death warrant for him this time.]]
244	* {{Sadist}}: He is shown to be extremely sadistic, to the point where the screams and tears of his opponent are merely "fun" for him.
245	* SmallNameBigEgo: Thinks he's the WorldsStrongestMan because his clan has supposedly bred him with the best genes. Not only does Saitama humiliate him, [[spoiler:but Suiryu still beats him even after Choze got a power boost by becoming a monster.]]
246	* SpikesOfVillainy: [[spoiler: In the monster-form, he grows spikes on his shoulders and his head seems to start to blend in with his attire. His hands become spiked and black.]]
247	* SuperBreedingProgram: He is extremely powerful because his clan chooses only the best genes to transmit.
248	* SuperStrength: [[spoiler: After transforming into a monster, his strength increased to the point where one punch is enough to send a contestant of the Super Fight tournament flying out of the stadium.]]
249	[[/folder]]

251	[[folder:Benpatsu]]
252	!!Benpatsu
253	!!!Voiced by: Koichi Soma (Japanese), Andrew Russell (English)

256	----
257	* ArrogantKungFuGuy: Benpatsu is an arrogant man, looking down on heroes like Sneck.
258	* ButtMonkey: He only shows up to get destroyed by everyone in one hit.
259	* TheCameo: He shows up in omake ''Lobster'' featured in volume 8, being apart of Harsh Path Clan and the only one who Saitama didn't attack.
260	* CurbStompBattle: Twice. From Sneck and, [[spoiler: as a monster]], Suiryu.
261	* DirtyCoward: He doesn't mind using tricks during fights, such as asking Sneck to stop only to strike him with an attack. He is also cowardly as shown when he runs away in an attempt to save his own life after Mysterious Beings attack the stadium.
262	* {{Jerkass}}: Very rude towards other fighters on tournament and even before that, he was a part of Harsh Path Clan, who were attacking a few other dojos, before encountering Bang's dojo and being taken down by Saitama [[spoiler: and Garou]].
263	* PowerUpLetdown: [[spoiler: When he becomes a monster, he gets a third eye and sharp teeth. That's it.]]
264	* ShoutOut: He is drawn in a comical style very closely resembling that of a pre-''[[Anime/DragonBallZ Z]]'' ''Manga/DragonBall'' villain. [[spoiler: The third eye even resembles that of Tenshinhan from the same series.]]
265	* ThirdEye: [[spoiler: As monster, he gains an additional third eye.]]
266	* UnderestimatingBadassery: He assumes that Sneck is weak since he's the lowest ranking hero. Sneck is quick to correct that he is only the lowest ranking hero in ''A-class''. He tries to punch Sneck, only to be counterattacked by Sneck's attack and defeated.
267	* UncertainDoom: [[spoiler: His whereabouts after monsterfication and being taken down by Suiryu are unknown.]]
268	** [[spoiler: He eventually shows up again in chapter 195 as a prisoner of the Hero Association, as well as a test subject for de-monsterification.]]

275	A martial artist and user of the Thunder Thunder Fist.
276	----
277	* CurbStompBattle: He was defeated by Suiryu during the semi-final in 3 seconds with one single kick. [[spoiler:Even after becoming a monster, he was no match for him.]]
278	* LightningCanDoAnything: Volten was struck by lightning as a child, which turned him into a superb fighter.
279	* ShockAndAwe: Volten is described as having a super conductor body. [[spoiler:After becoming a monster, his electrical ability seems to have increased drastically.]]
280	* TokenSuper: He is the only martial artists to have powers besides SuperStrength and one of the only human to have a super power besides enhanced stats and psychic powers.
281	* UncertainDoom: [[spoiler: His whereabouts after monsterfication and being taken down by Suiryu are unknown.]]
282	** [[spoiler: He eventually shows up again in chapter 195 as a prisoner of the Hero Association, as well as a test subject for de-monsterification.]]

289
290	A martial artist and user of the Head First Rushing Style. He is humiliated by Saitama.
291	----
292	* ArrogantKungFuGuy: He's both an allegedly major martial artist and also incredibly conceited towards his opposition, mocking "Charanko" at every opportunity as well as shooting jabs at Sour Face. Turns out he's all bark and no bite, at least against Saitama.
293	* ButtMonkey: Intended to propose to his girlfriend in his tournament victory while crushing "weak" martial artists. He not only ends up facing [[CurbstompBattle Saitama]], his girlfriend never showed up in the first place, causing the stadium [[LaserGuidedKarma to laugh at his supposed weakness.]]
294	* CurbStompBattle: In the tournament, he is quickly eliminated in one slap by Saitama disguised as Charanko.
295	* {{Determinator}}: Out of all the fighters on the tournament, he's one of the few who attended the most (six times), but he never got past the first match. Still, that doesn't mean he gives up so easily.
296	* EveryoneHasStandards: Very arrogant and rude to other fighters, but [[spoiler:unlike few other of them, he rejected eating monster cell, thus choosing to keep his humanity.]]
297	* {{Jerkass}}: He thinks very highly of himself, and is very rude to other fighters, especially those who don't take him seriously like Saitama. [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold He at least seems to have a soft spot for his girlfriend]].
298	* LongHairedPrettyBoy: He is a young man with long, light colored hair that is slicked back.
299	* MeaningfulName: "Zako" means a weak mook.
300	* TheRockStar: He dresses like one in his casual outfit.

304	!!Ring-Ring
305	!!!'''Voiced by:''' Risa Tsumugi (Japanese), Creator/LaurenLanda (English)
306	[[quoteright:310:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/linlinlowquality.png]]
307
308	Ring-Ring (or Lin-Lin, depending on translation) is a martial artist and user of the Palm Bell Fist.
309	----
310	* AnimeChineseGirl: Her look seems to invoke this trope. Resemblances to [[Franchise/StreetFighter Chun-Li]] have been noted by several.
311	* BreakTheCutie: [[spoiler:Out of the four tournament survivors, she's clearly the most terrified and broken by the experience, seeing few other fighters becoming monsters and later being attacked by them.]]
312	* DaintyCombat: Her name is actually ironic. The point of the bells is that they ''shouldn't ring at all''. She is supposed to move so gracefully that they don't ring. The fact is that they start ringing constantly from shaking so badly since the martial artists decide to go to Z City. This is the final piece that convinces Suiryu that none of them should go.
313	* FauxActionGirl: She is rumored to stand at the top of female martial artists. However, she was beaten by Max without any trouble (although Max disagreed) and was called a lightweight by Zakos. Comparatively, considering how overpowered some characters in ''One Punch Man'' are, she'd be an average martial artist of the lot.
314	* PunnyName: Her name in some translations, Ring Ring, is directly tied to the bells she wears and uses for combat.
315	* ShipTease: With Max.
316	* TokenFemale: The only female martial artist participating at tournament in Super fight arc.
317	* WorfHadTheFlu: Her style requires two bladed pikes to work. Obviously, these aren't allowed in a friendly competition. Regardless, Max didn't have his explosive shoes either so it was more fair.

319
320	[[folder:Hamukichi]]
321	Hamukichi is a very big friendly looking man, though covered in scars, who takes in the tournament. His style is the Sunflower Dojo's Gentle Self Defense and he was defeated Gatlin in the tournament.
322	----
323	* CoveredWithScars: For such a nice looking man, he is covered in a lot of scars as if he was cut to ribbons by a monster or a blade.
324	* GentleGiant: He is a very friendly man who teaches small children how to defend themselves.
325	* ManlyTears: Seen with his regret. [[spoiler:After being released from the shock therapy session that failed to reverse his monstrerification, he crawls back into the device, begging them to continue the procedure. He starts crying as he explains why he became a monster. This time, the procedure works at stabilizing him, preventing him from mutating further.]]
326	* MusclesAreMeaningless: He loses to Gatlin of the Rapid Hitting Rhythm. Gatlin is, like, a 4th of his size.
327	* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: He heavily regrets his decision to become a monster. [[spoiler:Once he is brought in for de-monstrerification, he admits that his dojo was about to go out of business and that winning the tournament was his last hope to raise the funds to continue. Despite looking like a giant teddy bear now, he's horrified at the thought of his students seeing him like this.]]
328	* SmallRoleBigImpact: Given his friendly nature, it was bizarre when he decided to eat a monster cell and become a monster. [[spoiler:It's because he's there to show that monsterification CAN be reversed as long as you want to become human again. He's the only test subject that the reversing process works on. Blast realizes that the subject's mental state is important both in becoming a monster and turning back into a human. This gives Blast hope that his friend can be saved from his deal with God and opens up the possibility of Amai Mask being saved as well.]]
329	* UncertainDoom: [[spoiler:His whereabouts after monsterfication and being taken down by Suiryu are unknown.]]
330	** [[spoiler:He eventually shows up again in chapter 195 as a prisoner of the Hero Association, as well as a test subject for de-monsterification.]]

333	[[folder: In General]]
334

336	----
337	* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Do-S turns them into her love slaves and attack Atomic Samurai’s disciples during the arc.
338	* CanonForeigner: They weren’t in the original webcomic and Murata added them in the manga.
339	* HeroicNeutral: While they are only mercenaries contracted by Waganma’s dad and only in it for the money, they do show heroic traits like comradery, even killing several monsters of the Monster Association and not let any of them escape.
340	* HiredGuns: They are mercenaries that are hired by Waganma’s father to retrieve his son due to thinking that the Hero Association is not up to the task to save his son.
341	* HitmanWithAHeart: They are all hardened fighters due to fighting in several wars, but they still fight for what’s right.
342	* InexperiencedKiller: When Garou infiltrates the Monster Association HQ, he discovers they are captured by G5 who was sent by the Organization to assist the monsters.
343	* ObfuscatingStupidity: When they are released from Do-S control, there is a moment where the mercenaries and Atomic Samurai’s disciples need to pass through a room filled with monster. The group devices a plan where the mercenaries act as if they are still mind controlled by Do-S and are taking the heroes as hostages. When one of the monsters try to kill one of them ForTheEvulz, they all massacre the monsters.
344	* OnlyInItForTheMoney: They only are in the arc because Waganma’s father sent them to retrieve his son.
345	* PrivateMilitaryContractors: What they are.
346	* PunchClockHero: They only appear as
347	* TwoGirlsToATeam: There are two girls in the squad.

351	[[folder: In General]]
352	* CoolOldGuy: When introduced, the group is comprised almost entirely of older masters; with Atomic Samurai being the youngest at 37. [[spoiler: Zig-zagged after the fight with the Monster Association and the deaths of Amahare and Zanbai; necessitating that their younger children (who appear to be somewhere in their 20s) take their place]].
353	* ImplausibleFencingPowers: Every member possess this to the point it appears to be a prerequisite for membership.

362	!!Tacchan
363	!!!Voiced by: Arisa Sekine (Japanese), Creator/LaurenLanda (English)
364
365	A popular boy from Garou's childhood who often bullied him.
366	----
367	* TheBully: To Garou. Tacchan always singles him out into playing the role of a "villain" so he can defeat him as the "hero".
368	* DirtyCoward: All of his heroic "fights" are nothing more than attacking social outcasts unprovoked, and if someone is willing to fight back, Tacchan always has his friends to back him up and his popularity to bail him out of trouble with authority figures. In fact, both times where Tacchan "fought" against Garou, he tells his two friends to hold him down first with a SlasherSmile.
369	* EvilHero: Though he sees himself as TheHero in the hero games he played, there's nothing to be considered brave or heroic in attacking social outcasts unprovoked.
370	* TheFaceless: He's only seen as a shadowy figure.
371	* {{Irony}}: Dreams and thinks himself of being the ideal hero, despite being the [[TheBully complete]] [[TheSociopath opposite]] of [[AllLovingHero everything]] a hero is supposed to be.
372	* KarmaHoudini: He (and his friends) never gets punished for bullying Garou, [[VillainWithGoodPublicity thanks to him being well-liked by everyone]], with the closes thing to comeuppance for him is the vague implication that he never became the hero he dreamed of becoming in the modern day.
373	* KidsAreCruel: Do we even need to explain why?
374	* MadeOutToBeAJerkass: Those who stand up against Tacchan will be labeled as the aggressors picking on the "good" boy Tacchan.
375	* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: He's only known as "Tacchan."
376	* PrettyBoy: According to Garou, Tacchan looks like this.
377	* SlasherSmile: He does this in two of his confrontations with Garou, by telling his two friends to hold him down before giving him a beatdown.
378	* SmallRoleBigImpact: He's only seen in Garou's flashbacks, but Tacchan's unfair bullying causes Garou to seek the path of becoming an all-powerful, absolutely evil monster in order to shake up the unfair status quo, where those who are popular will always win while those who are hated will always lose, [[spoiler:along with instilling him the belief of an all-powerful, absolutely good IdealHero]]. Which also leads to...
379	* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Combined with the above trope, his treatment of Garou is what led to Garou's StartOfDarkness and Garou doing things that would later [[NothingIsTheSameAnymore change the]] [[FromNobodyToNightmare story forever]].
380	* VillainWithGoodPublicity: Despite his actions, he's admired by everyone around him, including the teachers, to the point that Garou takes the blame when his bullyings are reported.
