A character who seems like an average kid but possesses a will and power beyond what people can imagine. They are considered heroes (or at least by what they are known) in both series. Not only are the main protagonists' personalities are alike but there is also a great focus on the conflict they get into with others. Most of this is portrayed in a shounen fashion with an appeal to comedy and action. Recommended for fans who are looking for something out of the ordinary.

Simple-minded protagonist gets themselves into power struggle and hierarchy of those who weild unnatural powers. He proceeds to beat through problems he encounters with pure raw strenght and carefree attitude.

If you ignore the comedy/parody part .. then there is hardly any difference between OPM and Solo Levelling.. starting from the Unknown or not yet revealed reason/logic behind the strength of the Overpowered Main character, the concept of growing from weak to insanely strong , the main character ranked very low despite having the strength to outclass the proud fighters in the higher ranks, everyone looking down on the MC because of his low rank, MC gradually climbing up in rankings while shocking and surprising everyone, the random apprearence of monsters in cities and special humans with abilities to fight them organised in a ranking  read more

Both have a witty and optimistic humor, with funny and action-filled fights, captivating characters and of course... DESTROY YOUR ENEMIES WITH ONE PUNCH!

Both manga are written by the same author with a similar style. The character designs are simple but has creativity to their complex natures. The action is fluid with a distinctive presentation. Structure also plays a key role with both works that is cleverly written with its characters. There is strength in these characters beyond their power and extends to their developments. Expect intense action and a story of energy that is worth every second of your time.

Unlikely heroes? Check. Overpowered main character? Check. Buildup to seemingly epic battles which eventually only last one punch? Check.

One Punch-Man and Gintama combines elements of action, shounen, comedy, and all in general crazy fun to make a creative story. The main male protagonist also has a laid-back personality although they do take responsibility when the need calls for it. Both series has very catchy dialogues and character interactions that define the personalities of its cast. Action in both series are depicted with artistic movement and crafted with style. Recommended for any fan of shounen.

Although Rai and Saitama are very different in their hairs, both are overpowered and always the last arrive to deal the finishing blow. Both have their assistant too (Frankenstein in Noblesse, Genos in Onepunch Man) 
reportRecommended by HiatusXHiatus
Both series' main protagonist has unusual fighting prowess as they fight powerful enemies. However in most cases, they are underestimated by their opponents and even spectators from the story. Both series also contain a lot of comedy gags that satires their character.

But perhaps absolute power isn't all it's cut out to be... A sure to win you over read!

Both series blend deep dives into characters' personalities and mental trauma with humour. ChSM is to OPM like rebelious brother. ChSM humour is more edgy and immature and the portrayal of violence and psychology is more brutal, messier, uglier. Both have very creative character designs and splendid chemistry between them. 
reportRecommended by NorbiSenpai
Written by both ONE and Murata Yusuke, feature the same over the top scenarios of seriousness mixed with comedy. The designs are strikingly similar and the one shot even makes a few cameos in the TV series.

Top-tier exciting yet ridiculous action pack comedy with cool serious moments. Don't believe me? Read the first chapter.

Both protagonist are looking like underdogs to their rivals, They're both not so interested in any matters except under one specific rule, Except the fact that OPM characters are more polished and interesting. 
reportRecommended by NergalMHL
Obsurdly overpowered main character who struggles to find anyone who can at least put up some fight. Fights are ended decisively and it usually takes longer to get into that fight than the fight itself. 
reportRecommended by abystoma2
Although their setting and mood are different (with OPM being a comedy and HnK being more tragic), both manga focus on an overpowered main character, who kills enemies almost effortlessly. Both have great art and over the top action.

Both manga follow their respective strongest person in their stories world, with Gokushufudou prioritising the home living comedic aspects that One Punch Man does so well. Just replace the 'World's strongest Hero' with 'Japan's strongest Yakuza member'

Everything you love about Dragon Ball such as the action, humor and likable characters you'll also love in One Punch-Man. Both manga have extremely overpowered main characters, fun stories and are very addictive once you start reading. Dragon Ball is a classic manga and I'm sure One Punch-Man will also become a future classic!

Both manga feature strong protagonists, who have to defeat seemingly invincible enemies who threaten humanity. Both have a lot of over the top action and some comedy.

MC is OP, and the charm of the series mainly comes from the consequences of MCs' actions and from others' reactions.

Both series have a combination of Shonen action, comedy, supernatural, and of course adventure. They both also have protagonists who do what they do just to have fun and go wild everywhere they go. 
reportRecommended by JonnyBGud
There are differences, with OPM focusing more on action and Mieruko-chan focusing on horror, but both use the same kind of humor involving misunderstandings that quickly spiral out of control. The two manga also subvert expectations of typical tropes in fiction by depicting events that are a little closer to reality.

Main char is extremely strong and oblivious to Boss-level opponents. Both have problem with ugly appearance, unfit to be a hero. Both mangas have original story telling, and gradually getting better as the story progress. For isekai ojisan, if you want a refreshing comedy and romance, give it a try. Its totally addicted in its own way.

You love Saitama? You love well handled overpowered characters, then you'll find Gojo interesting. Also, have you noticed Saitama is more of a side character after the first season? Yuji might be strong but he's not overpowered in his universe where there are so many more powerful sorcerers. That's why, even though in the opposite way, he ends up like a background character just like Saitama. You get to learn more about both main characters bit by bit.

Both are hilarious parodies of common anime genres, with Eminence in Shadow being a parody of reincarnation isekai. Both mangas have extremely OP MCs and great action, as well as great humor built on subverting expectations.

1. Both have op mcs, except Olivia is a girl 2. Both mcs have aloof personalities that pair with their outrageous strength in their respective universes 3. Both mcs get looked down a lot for their appearance and personality 4. Both mcs have "serious modes"; however as of now, we have yet to see both mcs' true strengths

Amazing art. Highly recommend.

Both of these series are a humorous take on the shounen genre, while OPM focuses on Saitama never being able to show his true strength because everyone else is comedically weak. TSSB focuses on the MC being constantly nerfed in absurd ways, never winning his fights because he simply never has the chance too. These series are both pretty good parodies of the battle genre, though TSSB is a little bit frustrating to read at times because he simply can not catch a break, fans of OPM who like to see Saitama constantly winning may not enjoy this series.

The comedic style is very, very similar, its great. The art is also bomb but not godlike like opm. Very good read, and its getting an anime like now too.

Both have overpowered and wonderfully humble MC's. In both titles, emotions are natural (given the situations) and actions scenes are dynamic. Good stories, good art and great feels.

Fans of OPM might like this for the mix of comedy and action, in transfer student storm bringer the MC is actually a wimp who somehow fumbles his way into being the craziest powerhouse in the school. Though this is the opposite of OPMs plot where the super OP character simply can't catch a break and show off how strong he really is, I think fans of OPM will enjoy the humorous take on the shounen fighting genre, it's got a great mix of humor and action both that helps set it apart from other similar series in the genre

Action comedy’s with great art and characters. Similar style of comedy, and both able to balance both very well.

Humorous, overpowered protagonists. Do note that Gosu isn't an out-and-out comedy like One Punch-Man though.

Do you enjoy OP protagonists powerful enough to destroy the world? Then check these series out! Latna Saga is a manhwa with a more serious tone while One Punch Man is more comedic and light-hearted, but honestly, I'm just here to see how the main characters will inevitably win.

Both are hillarious comedy-parody manga about overpowered superheroes who are so strong that they defeat their "cliche" opponents easily with one hit (there is no getting stronger drive of the story) so both of their plots mainly revolve around gags and their personalityes (Hero Saitama and Sunred are also similar - lazy, easily get annoyed and a bit antiheroic). 
reportRecommended by grsh
Yasuzaki-Man and One Punch Man are both manga that revolve around super heroes. They both give a great mixture of both comedy and action with their over-powered main characters. However, Yasuzaki-Man's character is sort of the opposite of Saitama, being anxious and awkward.

While Zetman is darker and overall better written, that doesn't diminish the raw epicness of this manga in the least... as both share similarities on the concept of superheroes on top of also both being available for the seinen demographic. 
reportRecommended by Frozenstein
Although two mangas have completely different setting (high school life vs hero world), they share the fundamentals behind the story. Both Saitama and Mitsuhashi always win; Saitama with his ridiculous punch and Mitsuhashi with quick wit and dirty tricks. Both grotesque and fun, mixing fights and normal life situations, bizarre plot twists and many fun characters.

Both of these comedy titles feature and are centered around battles that are won with a single punch. However, in Sexy Commando Gaiden the entire purpose of the secret technique is to catch the opponent off guard enabling anyone to be defeated with a single punch and thus assuring victory, while in One Punch-Man the main character is frustrated because he can't make any fight last longer because of his overwhelming strength.  
reportRecommended by AfterGlow
Both titles are over-the-top action comedies featuring insane levels of destruction, each attack framed with enough visual eye-candy to put the art of entire titles to shame in one single panel. These are truly glorious manga.

Both have slow motion action scenes, but mainly it is on One Punch-Man. Both main hero characters are overpowered in a sense, and are very kind, altruistic and self-sacrificing.

Remember that weird looking crab-man in One Punch man? Dandadan has similar sense of humor when designing enemies, and additional twists on its own. Instead of Mysterious beings there are aliens and spirits. And some people having superpowers. Anyways if you enjoyed OPM, you might find Dandandan fun, too.

Both worlds have heroes and monsters, except in Superhuman Era the heroes are not as common and are mostly hidden without revealing their true identities.

Keyman and onepunch-man are both parodies of the American superhero genre. Both poke fun at super heroes, magical powers and the action is just as important as the story. Both are hilarious and stylish, keyman even have the Sfx written out in English, hillariously wrong sometimes. Highly recommended!

SHGD is the nasty little brother of OPM. Similar but cruder humor, similar superpowers, but with a storyline that reeks of drugs. Actually SHGD contains very little fan service as well (even if the plot is very sex-centered), so that's a similarity as well. And oh they're both extremely funny.

The most obvious comparison is that the two are both battle shounen with pretty great action sequences. Saitama (One Punch-Man) has some similarities with Gon (Hunter x Hunter): both are kind of dense, enjoy goofing off, have immense power even though they don't look like it, and can be pretty scary when they get serious. Genos (One Punch-Man) has some similarities with Killua and Kurapika (Hunter x Hunter): Genos and Killua both have natural skill, power, a cool sense of seriousness, and wish to catch up to their respective partners; Genos and Kurapika both have goals towards exacting revenge on those who wronged them.

In two letters: OP. Just like that, both stories revolve around these Over Powered MCs complaning about being too over powered. However, what you must remember is that both are comedies, satires of their respective genres. One punch man: it's a parody that mocks about the superheroe concept along with the archetype of the battle mainstream mangas. Shinka no mi: it's a manzai sketch full of countless tsukkomi per chapter pointing out the absurdness of the cliches seen in most of the isekai light novels. Although, if I should point a difference, the principal might be the development: One punch man jumps right into the acid humor that will,  read more

Parodies of a superhero genre with untraditional protagoinst that has a certain gimmick. Both mix comedy with action, though Lolicon Phoenix puts more emphasis on the comedy part.

Same concept with an overpowered character that only shows off a few times in the story and only a handful of characters know about him. Meanwhile he pretends to be a weakling wagie. No fantasy stuff here, just the world's #1 assassin taking a vacation dealing with maffia like it's a walk in the park. More serious than One Punch-Man, world & characters are very different. But the premise and the story structure has similarities: enemy appears --> protagonist deals with it --> very few people realize it was him --> chill & fun --> new enemy appears.
