Torako
CharacterTorako is a small pet cat belonging to the daughter of a Hero Association staffer. When she goes missing, Saitama is roped into an unlikely rescue deep in monster territory, where this fierce little mother proves anything but grateful.
Appearance
Around her neck sits a blue collar; her small frame is covered in white fur, and her eyes shine a bright yellow.
Personality
She is a devoted mother, spotted stalking prey and foraging so her kittens can eat.
History
In the bonus story Lost Cat, Torako bolts from home, and a Hero Association staffer enlists Saitama to bring the runaway back. The trail leads to an off-limits district where Grizzly Nyah, along with her cubs, runs wild among heroes clashing with the Mysterious Beings. Deaf to her owner's shouts, Torako races for her kittens tucked in the undergrowth; when Grizzly Nyah traps her and she bares her fangs, Saitama steps in, drives off the beast, and hands her back to her owner. Her thanks is a swift scratch as he lifts her, which stings him enough that he threatens a punch, though the gag is played purely for laughs. Beyond ordinary feline instincts, she holds no special powers.
