Oh come on King, he just wants to play games with you man. Also holy poo poo Genos. He wasn't kidding that he would take care of the job. That's pure dedication to try to be better than his teacher.

So I guess if OPM ever gets an anime, Norio Wakamoto should be a shoe-in for King since he's perfected the king engine, what with his previous role as Mechazawa.

Wakamoto can ham it up like crazy so he'd be good for a total fraud who everyone in-story thinks is a major badass.

Being able to legitimately bluff his way past monsters and the other S Class heroes is a pretty cool super power though and in a world where you turn into a lizard monster just by loving reptiles too much, he'll probably gets amazing super powers (through his love of dating sim games)

You should also read Mob Psycho 100. It's like OPM, but the main character is a psychic teenager.

Yeah, I don't buy it either. I mean, I get the concept about his whole character but he couldn't possibly get to an S Rank just by faking badassery, right? There are thousands of monsters impossible to kill by "normal" means, if you want to get at least to A Rank you have to be some sort of monster yourself, that's the impression I got. But not only King is nothing special, he refuses to fight if the odds are against him, so how could he get so far?

No, you can get directly promoted to S-rank if you're a monster. Saitama has just gotten unlucky and no one has witnessed his feats.

Saitama also actively tries to keep his heroics hidden (i.e. Sea King, the meteor and confrontation with the tank-tops afterwards, etc)

He only tried to hide the sea king, nothing else.

The Hero Association knows Saitama is strong. They're just not sure if they want to make him one of the faces of the organization by making him S-Rank.

S-rank guys aren't really the face of the organization. (Most of) them are well-known for being power houses and poo poo, but they're not in the limelight like Sweet Mask, for example. IIRC

They're not making Saitama immediately acknowledged because that would ruin the joke.

Nah, they're really dubious that this guy has done all this poo poo. Wrecking the physical requirements? Obviously cheated somehow. Asteroid? Got lucky after several heavy hitters weakened it.

Sea King? Same sort of deal, just lucky to be at the right place and time.

Alien Warship? Tornado whatsername obviously took that thing down. Saitama probably wasn't anywhere near the action.

Basically every thing he's done has been pretty easy for for non-observers to doubt.

I'm loving the interaction between Saitama and King. Saitama's all like "Yeah, I know how boring fighting weak things is King bro", he thinks he finally found someone he can relate to. But nope, he's just a fake. That's one pretty drawn bird too.

So basically Murata thought "Okay this arc is cool and all, but does it have enough laser beams and robot fights?" And when it comes to Murata, the answer is no. It is always no.

Hell he even drew a cool rear end mech from a 2D side-scroller just because he could.

That's the character in the game King is playing.
