He looks incredibly average and his perpetual nonchalant mood doesn't help his appearance. Also his power is incomprehensible to the point where everybody assumes he's cheating.

Basically if he had a better looking costume and forced himself to put on the big act every other hero does he'd probably be a bit more respected.

>orphaned
We literally know nothing about Saitama's family. And it's not like he can't get a job either, he was a salaryman before meeting Crabante. He decided to quit to become a hero.

He was unemployed. Crablante said he LOOKED like a salaryman, but that was it.

>>134879565
>he was a salaryman before meeting Crabante
wrong

Because sometimes achieving your dreams leaves you without a dream.

Because sometimes where you end up is different from where you thought you were going.

Because nothing is ever as great as it seems.

>never worked an honest day in his life

>>134879832
He actually tried to get a job, which is more than you can say for 99% of this board.

Howed he have an income before joining the hero association?

>>134879988
His fictional world may have an unemployment scheme where as long as you're actively looking for work they'll pay you just enough to support yourself. Hence his shitty tiny apartment with basically no commodities besides a laptop, a TV and some manga.

He's actually pretty handsome. Or was.

>>134880482
I can't get over just how much of a villain he looks like with hair.

Currently his life is pretty good, if not fulfilling.

>>134879565
He was at an interview, he didn't have a job.

He's actually pretty handsome. It's his extreme nonchalance that makes him appear plain

Doesn't look like an orphanage to me

Either One or Murata said in an interview that he did part-time jobs, the kind where you work for a day or two on some project and get 10,000. Otherwise he's extremely frugal, and as the extra episode showed, it looks like he collects the occasional bounty

This is so retarded imo people see what he does

You mean like every country in northern Europe?

>>134878921
Is he rrally orphaned though? Or we just assume that his family's dead?

>>134885472
I think it was implied.

As a matter of fact, he did have a job. ONE stated in an interview alongside Murata that he used to work in a convenience store before becoming jobless.

Because that's the joke.
