True. But they do a good job of making him show up late. Plus gotta love the running joke that everyone that matters canโ€™t believe he is that strong even when he shows how strong he is right to their face. How King managed to get No. 2 ranking just by being in the right place when Saitama does something awesome is beyond me.

I disagree with "everyone that matters can't believe it", but I'm going purely off the anime as I haven't read the original web comic or the Manga. I feel like some of the s rank have realized, like Tatsumaki and Bang.

I do love how opposed the reactions are to King and Saitama, which I get is the point, but it's done well. Everybody makes every excuse for why Saitama isn't actually insanely strong and everybody comes up with the most bullshit reason why King is Uber powerful, like when he didn't cut the apple cause he couldn't even get the blade unsheathed ๐Ÿ˜‚
