Quotes 

• Saitama : Wait, you're back in one piece?

  Genos : Indeed, my body is mostly mechanical. So, my parts can be replaced.

  Saitama : You're an odd one, aren't you?

  Genos : What kind of parts have you installed on your body, Master?

  Saitama : Don't use any.

  Genos : But, what about the skin-colored armor on your head?

  Saitama : Yeah, that's just my skin, dude.

  Genos : That's odd. You're pure far too young to already be bald.

  Saitama : So, I'm bald! What's your problem, huh?

  Genos : My problems? You're asking me to list each one of them?

  Saitama : Yeah, no thanks. I'm good.

  Genos : Four years ago, when I was fifteen, I was still a real human being.

  Saitama : You... heard me saying no thanks, didn't you?

  Genos : Though, we were poor and had to pinch pennies, we were still able to get by. We lived a peaceful and happy life together. Until that fateful day, when a crazy cyborg went out of control and attacked our town. We never knew why it happened. Most likely, a failed body modification generated an irregularity in his brain. He destroyed everything in sight - parks, schools, buildings, my house... he even took the lives of everyone in my family. Miraculously, I survived, but being only a weak fifteen-year-old, I was alone at the end of my strength in a ruined town. That's when Doctor Kuseno happened to pass through. The Doctor, a scientist for justice, was on a mission to stop the rampaging cyborg and end his oppression. I asked the Doctor to give me body modification surgery, to make me better, stronger, faster. That's how I was reborn as a cyborg, who fights for justice. I promised Doctor Kuseno, I would terminate the evil cyborg and return peace to this world.

  Saitama : Huh, I see...

  Genos : [interrupting]  It's been four years since that day. I'm nineteen years old. I'm focused and driven. I've wandered from town to town eliminating evil. The monsters and criminal organizations I've destroyed are numerous. But I've been unable to locate any clues about being the insane cyborg and become increasingly frustrated and restless. I find myself chasing a virtual image of that cyborg whenever I face my enemies. Then, last week, when the mosquito monster appeared, I let my concentration slip and paid the price. I thought I could lose to no one but the rampaging cyborg, so I neglected to analyze the data on my opponent and rushed in head long to confront her. The result, as you know, was that an enemy with immense strength bested me. If you had not been in the area, Master Saitama, I would have undoubtedly been destroyed. Master, you saved my life that day. The life that was once saved by Doctor Kuseno many years ago has now been saved yet again by you, Master Saitama. And I feel the weight of that responsibility. I must not allow myself to die before finding and destroying that cyborg once and for all. And to achieve that, I have to continue fighting evil as a righteous soldier until that fateful day comes when he appears before me. I need to get stronger. Last week, when I saw what your punch was capable of, I knew immediately that I had to study under you as your disciple. If only I could be as strong as you and become such awesome power. I have an old enemy who must be defeated at all cost. Though the battle is not for me alone. It is for my entire hometown and for Doctor Kuseno as well. I fully realize I am still inexperienced. But now, more than ever before, I need incredible strength so that can eradicate the greatest of evils! Doctor Kuseno is...

  Saitama : [irritatingly]  Enough, you idiot! Shorten this stupid story to twenty words or less!
