Goodreads Synopsis:
Life gets pretty boring when you can beat the snot out of any villain with just one punch.
Nothing
about Saitama passes the eyeball test when it comes to superheroes,
from his lifeless expression to his bald head to his unimpressive
physique. However, this average-looking guy has a not-so-average
problem—he just can’t seem to find an opponent strong enough to take on!
The
Monster Association has kidnapped Tareo, the boy who admires Garo, and
now Garo finds himself plunging headfirst and alone into the heart of
the Monster Association’s hideout. Meanwhile, the Hero Association
pushes forward with its operation to rescue Waganma, while Genos and the
others are living it up enjoying hot pot at Saitama’s place!
Review:
While Saitama is having a hot pot night at his house, fighting over the meat, Garo is getting a boy out from the villains lair. He says he doesn't care, but for some reason he seems to want to save this weird little boy. Most of this volume is taken up with Garo's evolving indestructibility. The more he fights, the more he wants to fight and win, and the stronger he appears to become.
Honestly, there was a lack of Saitama in this volume.
It looks like Garo is building up to potentially be the first real fight for Saitama to have. But, then again, it very well might be a while for that. And the other heroes are stilling planning to bust into the villain lair and rescue the rich boy being kept there.
