Macho Radish
CharacterMacho Radish is a Demon level Mysterious Being who appears only in a One-Punch Man bonus story, a walking vegetable brought down almost casually by the Surly Brothers. His fleeting showing leaves real doubt over whether that fearsome rating was ever earned.
Appearance
Built along the lines of an oversized daikon, the creature pairs the pale, tapered bulk of a root vegetable with a set of thick, human style limbs. Bands of muscle wrap its arms and legs, lending the produce an oddly athletic build that suits its aggressive name.
Personality
Almost nothing survives about how Macho Radish thinks or behaves. The character surfaces for only a moment and never speaks, so its temperament is left entirely blank in the material.
History
The monster turns up in the extra chapter Disaster Level, where Saitama is chatting with a roasted potato seller as an alarm blares across the city to warn of an incoming Demon rank threat. Macho Radish proves to be that menace, and the Surly Brothers move in to confront it. The clash is short, and the siblings put the beast down without taking a scratch.
The eldest of the group, Smile Man, wonders aloud whether an opponent this feeble truly deserved so high a classification. The youngest, Angry Man, answers by tearing off a piece of the fallen monster and eating it. Because the fight ends so quickly, none of the raw power expected of a Demon level foe is ever put on display.
