Garou's Hideout is a manga-original location, a small residence hidden in a wooded stretch of S-City. Garou used the place to rest and recuperate between his hunts, treating it as a personal base until it was wrecked and left in ruins.

Layout

The building looks like a plain shack, ringed by trees and thick brush that keep it out of sight. Inside, one wall is covered with photographs of heroes, some crossed out to mark those Garou has already beaten and others singled out as targets he still wants to face.

History

Garou first appears here in the Monster Raid Arc, coming to after Saitama knocked him out. Later, during the Monster Association Arc, he retreats to the shack to recover from the heavy wounds dealt by Watchdog Man and Saitama. Pushed on by his friends, Tareo ventures inside and finds him, and the two talk as a group of A-Class and B-Class heroes closes in. In the ensuing fight, Death Gatling's Death Shower badly damages the house, and it is finally destroyed altogether when Elder Centipede erupts from underground, launching the structure into the air and reducing it to rubble.
