Why did the Atomic Samurai, the most controversial character in "One Punch Man", become a parallel-imported samurai?

Speaking of the most miserable character in "One Punch Man", I must mention Atomic Samurai. As the fourth-ranked S-class hero, Atomic Samurai should have had unlimited glory, but what I didn't expect was that he failed many times in the comics and failed to show the crushing strength of the S-class. He couldn't kill the five ghost-level heads for a long time. If the metal bat hadn't found the weakness of the five heads, the Atomic Samurai would have been able to kill them for a long time. In the original comics, Atomic Samurai's treatment was even worse. During the original Monster Fighting Association, other S-class heroes were showing off, but Atomic Samurai was being beaten. He was even beaten into a world-famous painting by the black spirit, and became a famous figure in various circles. The object of ridicule among forum netizens. Why has Atomic Samurai, a character with such a high positioning, lost his due character?

Is it because the author particularly hates him? No, no, the image of samurai represents Japanese culture. The two authors of "One Punch Man" are both Japanese. Of course, they will not deliberately discredit the character of Atomic Samurai. A Chinese netizen once joked on the social account of "One Punch Man" artist Yusuke Murata. He said: "Atomic Samurai is too bad and should be expelled from the S-class hero queue." Unexpectedly, this joke aroused Murata's disgust, and Murata blocked the netizen. This shows that in the mind of the original author, Atomic Samurai is a character that cannot be discredited. Then why in the comics, the atomic samurai with full appearance has gradually become a "parallel samurai"? The editor believes that it was because of the author's unintentional arrangements that the Atomic Samurai was sacrificed. 1. In order to highlight the strength of the villain, Atomic Samurai's strong character was sacrificed

When anime establishes the image of a villain, some decent characters must be sacrificed to set it off. The character who plays this sacrificial role in "One Punch Man" It's Atomic Samurai. Wutou is the first dragon to appear. In order to highlight the strength of the dragon's combat power, the author arranged for four S-class heroes, Atomic Samurai, Banggu, Metal Bat and Sexy Prisoner, to deal with it. But the embarrassing thing is that the worst performing among these four S-class heroes is Atomic Samurai. Although Banggu was punched by the five-headed hammer, he quickly got up. This punch highlighted Banggu's body's defensive power. Although the metal bat had no output when hitting the five-headed ball, he showed his excellent dynamic vision and insight when he saw the weakness of the five-headed ball at a glance. Even the weakest sexy prisoner in the S-class showed off his new ultimate skill "Dark Angel Mode" when fighting five heads. All three teammates were showing off, but Atomic Samurai suffered a loss in front of the five heads. After Atomic Samurai used his ultimate move Atomic Slash to cut the five heads into pieces, the five heads stood up again in less than five seconds.

Due to the strong recovery ability of Wutou's body, Atomic Samurai's slashes were almost ineffective, and he himself became the backdrop for Wutou's showmanship. Similarly, when setting off the strength of the Black Spirit, the author followed the same pattern. Many heroes who broke into the headquarters of the Monster Association achieved good results, but Atomic Samurai alone became the defeat of the Black Spirit. After this battle, the pressure of the Black Demon boss level has increased, but the Atomic Samurai's strength has greatly declined. Why did the author have to "sacrifice" the atomic samurai to foil the boss? Because his strength is in an awkward position, Tornado and Metal, which are stronger than him, can single-handedly challenge top dragon-level monsters, and generally will not be defeated. Banggu, who is almost as strong as him, is also frustrated, but Banggu defected to the protagonist group early, and Saitama will come to the rescue when necessary. However, Atomic Samurai is not closely related to the protagonist Saitama. He does not have the shadow of the protagonist's aura, and his strength is at the forefront of the S-class. It is just perfect to set off the villain. 2. Atomic Samurai has been unable to upgrade, but the other S-classes are getting stronger and stronger

Atomic Samurai's one move is popular all over the world. When he first appeared, he used "Atomic Slash", and now the comics are fast. One hundred and eighty chapters later, he is still using his old atomic slash, and his strength and moves have not improved. In these more than 100 chapters, Xiaojie upgraded three times, from a novice with only initial equipment to a ghost-level strongman equipped with a turbine driver that can release ten times the incineration cannon. Although Bangu, who is on the same level as Atom, is older and has little room for improvement, he called his brother to help, and the two of them were able to use the combined attack skill "Jiaoyalong Killing Fist". From another perspective, he also gained Upgraded. The weakest sexy prisoner of the S-class has awakened the dark angel form, the vibrating angel form and the bristle angel form.

Among the many S-classes, only Atomic Samurai and Vest Master have stagnated in strength. Even if Atomic Samurai doesn't learn new skills, he doesn't have good teammates to form a team with.

The three disciples of Atomic Samurai have no S-level strength at all. Only the three of them can defeat an intermediate ghost-level demon with long hair. Their individual strength is far from reaching the S-level threshold, because the standard for S-level is to be able to defeat him. Kill the ghost-level monster alone. With three disciples who are only A-level, Atomic Warrior not only cannot improve his strength, but is also weakened invisibly, because these three disciples are a drag when facing monsters above dragon level. While other decent characters are getting stronger and stronger, the stagnant Atomic Samurai is certainly not favored by the audience. Fortunately, the two authors gave him a few ghosts and low-level dragons in the remake to show his strength. If he directly challenged the black spirit like in the original work, Atom would definitely be hacked even worse. 3. Atomic Samurai is a character who has been complained about and does not have a strong aura.

The top S-class characters such as Tatsumaki, Banggu and Blast mainly play cuteness and complaint roles in the comics, so Kuroko Relatively few. Atomic Samurai is different. In the comics, he is often criticized by other characters, and his performance is reduced again and again. Moreover, the audience complains more harshly and viciously than the characters in the comics. As a result, Atomic Samurai's strong aura is gradually worn away. All. Atomic Samurai has a nickname called "Monkey Samurai", because in the original comic Banggu complained about Atomic Samurai: "After watching it so many times, even a monkey has mastered the key to killing five heads." Some netizens mocked Atomic Samurai as being worse than a monkey. What's even worse is that the production team of the second season of the animation really made the Atomic Samurai into a "monkey". When the Atomic Samurai killed the weirdo and committed abdominal dissection in the second season, there was a scene where the production team had insufficient lighting, which made the Atomic Samurai look like a monkey. Just a monkey, "Monkey Warrior" changed from a nickname to "a world-famous painting".

Another embarrassing aspect of Atomic Samurai is being bullied by Sweetheart Mask. Sweetheart Mask once laughed at Atomic Samurai that his disciple was weak. Atomic Samurai retorted, but Sweetheart Mask just said: "I am better than you". Atomic Samurai, who had been reluctant to shake hands with Saitama before, could only smile bitterly when faced with Sweetheart Mask's provocation: "Yeah, yeah". Some readers used this to ridicule Atomic Samurai for being a weakling and afraid of the strong, saying that he turned into a turtle in front of the strong, which was in sharp contrast to Tatsumaki. Genos just cursed Tatsumaki, "little one", and was immediately stuck into the wall by Tatsumaki. Sweetheart Mask stood on the head of Atomic Samurai and plucked his hair, but Atomic Samurai could only do Tai Chi to get by. It was obvious who had the stronger aura. What’s even more embarrassing is that in the latest original comic, Sweet Mask released his power and defeated the dragon-level clown monster. He may actually be stronger than Atomic Samurai. Not only did Atomic Samurai lose his face, but Riko was also crushed by Sweet Mask. Pressed. Editor's summary:

The reason why Atomic Samurai is called "Parallel Samurai", and why it is often spoofed by playful netizens, is actually related to his role positioning, and Atomic Samurai belongs to that category. A character invisibly sacrificed by the author. He was the one who got beaten up, he was the one who was complained about, and he was the first one to suffer when a strong enemy appeared. Therefore, Atomic Samurai has many sunspots, which is also a success from another perspective. The many sunspots mean that he has been portrayed quite well by the villain. Of course, the author wants readers to happily complain about Atomic Samurai, but that doesn’t mean readers can block him. Murata has already blocked many netizens who trolled Atomic Samurai, so the editor reminds comic fans to complain about some funny characters. Moderation is not good when it comes to personality.
