The heroes' assault on the Monster Association gets underway in One-Punch Man. Lower-ranked heroes and the Class-S group enter the fighting before the action pushes farther underground. This is the operation to read after the strategy meeting, with the rescue preparations already established. The volume's entry point is the start of the assault, not the beginning of its causes, so skipping directly here trades away the reasons for the gathering.
Spoilers — why this volume matters. Tap to reveal.
The publisher gives the assault a division of labor: lower-ranked heroes fight while the Class-S team clears monsters and proceeds deeper. That structure can make rank look practically useful rather than merely ridiculous, which is a worthwhile counterweight to the registration comedy. VIZ then singles out Flashy Flash against a pair of monster ninjas. The named encounter gives the larger operation a specific fighter to follow without proving that the whole mission shares his level of control. This book opens the attack, so its buying value lies in entering that sequence with its preparation still fresh.
