One-Punch Man One-Punch Man (Japanese: Language) is an ongoing Japanese webcomic created by an author using the pseudonym ONE, which began publication in early 2009. The series quickly went viral, surpassing 7.9 million hits in June 2012. The Japanese shortened name Wanpanman is a play on the long-running children's character Anpanman (the form pan is not a standard abbreviation for punch).
