OPM is what you get when somebody asks themselves, what would the story be for someone that is completely, totally, absolutely, and indefatigably invincible in every regard?
In my defense, I have not seen the third season yet.
I feel like King fits more. OPM is depressed Superman, but King is literally taking all the credit and get out of deadly situations alive by being at the right place at the right time
Plot armor has nothing to do with fear or bravery, though. King constantly gets out of situations that absolutely should have killed him. Situations that he was not actually equipped to handle. But he’s not only alive, but completely unscathed (with the exception of his one scar)
Except that’s his whole character arc. That’s literally his entire purpose. A normal human being placed into situations where you are dead only to be saved by one reoccurring character our hero.
I don’t think that’s plot armor. It is just character design. They don’t keep him alive for plot reasons, the whole plot is that he is not defeated, ever.
They put the bar too high up with the quality of season 1. I haven’t watched season 2 and 3 but still read the manga sometimes (not the web version. No offense but I couldn’t get on board with the art lol).
One Punch Man.
It’s his entire schtick.

No because he’s constantly terrified and lives in ultimate fear.

So one might say the only reason he gets through those is… The plot requires it?

It’s hilarious. It’s also different. I enjoyed all three.
It did disappoint a lot of people, and that’s fine too.
