One of the biggest and most popular anime series One Punch Man has been much awaited by fans for the third season for quite some time now. The narrative revolves around Saitama, a superhero who becomes disinterested due to a lack of challenge because he can defeat any opponent with a single blow.
Many fan theories about the characters and the plotline of the series have been revolving around the internet since the beginning of the story and some have gained a lot of traction as fans find them interesting and something to look up to. One of the theories involves Saitama’s protege, Genos, and focuses on his past.
According to this theory, Genos is the mad cyborg who he has been searching for since the first season and he will be ultimately killed by Saitama at the end of the series. This theory has been making rounds on the internet and has some interesting points.
The Mad Cyborg in One Punch Man
The cyborg who killed his family and devastated Genos’ hometown is known as the Mad Cyborg. Ever since, it has been his greatest enemy. Genos was the only known survivor of the Mad Cyborg’s attack on Genos’ hometown four years before their meeting. The Cyborg destroyed everything and even killed Geno’s family.
As Dr. Kuseno who recreated Genos, approached the abandoned town in search of the Mad Cyborg, and that’s where he discovered Genos. Based on what Genos had said, it is assumed that the Mad Cyborg is a dangerous and extremely powerful rampaging cyborg, though it is unknown the full extent of its capabilities.
Not much is known about the Mad Cyborg, apart from the details given by Genos. He has never been seen in the manga or the anime. Because of this, a theory has been going on the internet that states that Genos himself is the Mad Cyborg and he will be ultimately killed by Saitama after the series.
Theory Suggests Genos is Mad Cyborg and Will Be Killed By Saitama
According to a fan theory, Genos, Saitama’s cyborg protege who has been so keen to discover the source of his strength, might be his ultimate opponent. Genos is on the hunt for the “Mad Cyborg,” a robotic creature gone awry that decimated his hometown and took the lives of all but him.
The theory suggests that Genos is the Cyborg he is looking for and that, as the attacker, he is the only one who survived. After all, the Mad Cyborg’s attack was blamed on a glitch that happened during the process of integrating a brain into a robot body, and from all accounts, Genos’s brain is the only remaining human component.
The theory also states that as Genos is watching his master and honing his skills and equipment to be as strong as Saitama, in the conclusion of One Punch Man, he would be the final enemy Saitama will have to face as he would finally be as strong as Saitama and their friendship would make it difficult for Saitama to kill his protege.
